Pete there's not much you can do to avoid it; it is what it is. IMO you've done all you can to make this fun and fair. This will happen with anything LE...

Okay that's just dumb. I promise I will do my best to avoid this next year.
Pete, what you did was fine. Like others have said, with an LE release there will always be someone looking to take advantage to make a profit. The fact that most everyone wants your cigars for what they are isn't even a consideration to someone like this except for the fact that it's a better opportunity to make that profit. I don't think you can really do anything about that but here's to trying.

you know you're a BOTL when you buy a box of LE cigars and immediately commit half the box to give away to B/SOTL just so they can enjoy them with you! You know you're a piece of 'you know what' when you try to take advantage of fellow cigar smokers just to make a buck...

Nature of the beast I guess although I find it insane on a personal level.
Other than you guys doing the right thing and flagging it due to the fact that tobacco cannot be sold there, I suppose nothing can be done in the grand scheme to keep people from charging very high prices for things in high demand. The choice of the person to not enable that behavior lies in noone buying from guys like this.

Someone should've gotten in contact with the seller to see if we could get his order canceled, haha

I agree though, this is pretty much unavoidable.

You meant fladding, right?

Well said stroke. Furthermore, the piece of sh*t has no idea what it is like to be a B/SOTL and probably never will.
