General Discussion>The Kübler-Ross model - AKA New Humi on the way
SteveH 05:16 PM 05-23-2011
Gents,
So last week I came to the realization that my humidor is full, so I did a psychological evaluation of myself and discovered I actually was falling into the Kübler-Ross model of grief :-)

1. Denial - 'No...the humi cannot be full -I haven't bought anything in a while !"
2. Anger - 'MF'r ! SWALLOW IT ! TAKE MY STICKS YA BASTAGE !" "I Hate my job - if I had more time to smoke the humi wouldn't be full...wankers !"
3. Bargaining - 'Ok - if I can just fit the box of Para Japon's...I'll be good. Long weekend, I promise to go through some sticks'
4. Depression - 'Life sucks...I really wanted those MyFather LE's 2010s...Such a good price at the local B&M before the 2011's come out..I can't ever get a bargain.'
5. Acceptance - Picture to follow in about 3 days :-):-):-):-)

So....The humi arrived today - damaged. Im really not happy with it; as the build quality sucks; and not sure what they consider spanish cedar; but this stuff smells like MDF.
I called the place and they give me a raft of crap about accepting the package if it was damaged...WTF ? I didn't have X-ray vision. This is gonna be painful...

I've already contacted UPS Freight and the place I bought it from. We'll see how things go. Quite frankly UPS shouldn't be held liable; as this is clearly a MFG defect. The screws were stripped out from the get-go.

Thanks guys....I guess the old saying applies "Ya get whatcha pay for"...All the screws were stripped out in the door and it was dented up.

We'll see what happens...
