Not exactly, I licked the whole stick, let my wife taste it, thought "this is very odd", lit it, smoked an inch or two, thought about chapstick, and then threw it out.

At least it didnt taste like a$$....

It's simple. If it's a $10 min., ring it up as a $10 sale. No need in the B&M being a hard ass over .20. As far as him laying down the stick, what do YOU think happened to it? There's a good many B&M's I know would've plopped it back in the box. Maybe all the B&M's you've dealt with have more class than the one's I've seen.

Exactly. I would've smoked that baby up. I have nothing but love for the Hemingway sticks. But, I've never encountered one that tasted like it was sweetened.
[Reply]

I have experienced this as well. Only on the signatures though. ShortStorys do not have the sweetness.

While I do agree with you, this does not address the question, nor does it explain how you came to the authoritative knowledge of what that particular B&M's credit card agreement is.

What I think is that you're simply making blind assertions and painting with a very broad brush.

Could it have happened? Sure. Did it? I dunno, I wasn't there.

Well the first time I went in there the guy did tell me to never buy cigars online because the manufacturers make special crappy cigars to sell online and the B&M ones are the only good ones. He said it's why Gurkha is so cheap online.

So yeah...

Sorry I exposed some people's logical fallacies. Would you settle for the CUT? I'm kind of attached to Lump, the no-legged dog...

Or maybe just nit picking, waiting to jump on someone at any given minute for no good reason. I'm at a loss why you feel you need to be so cross over a simple observation by myself that the clerk could've solved the problem with a simple solution instead of pissing off the customer.

In either of your quieries, it makes no difference about what cc policies are when customer service is involved. Too many times people can't look past the rules for a reasonable solution to serve the customer. It's ridiculous or the story would've never made it here to begin with.

So calling my logic a fallacy when I posit that the B&M was out of line in this instance is puzzling when it would appear the author of the story observed these 2 things take place leaving the question hanging as to whether the B&M sucked it up and took the loss by tossing the stick or plopping it back in stock. Making a big deal over .20 would cause any reasonable thinking observer to see it was more than just a reasonable chance they did just that.:-)
