I can't take it anymore.
Nigerian you just don't get it. You just don't get why you are suddenly in the situation you are in.
Your competition came to this site, perhaps initially to communicate his side of what appeared to be a intellectual property dispute, but obviously saw a business opportunity. He communicated freely with the posters on this site, and offered transparency, humility, an eagerness to please potential customers . He offered an increased discount to what was requested to ALL coli users, not simply those who expressed interest in purchasing his product. He shouldered the costs of shipping and gave free merchandise to his buyers. In short, he did good business: a number of small things that instill and cultivate consumer confidence and increase willingness to buy.
What do you do? Retort some bullshyt about lanyards.
But you saw the writing on the wall though, saw that ether starting that slow burn, and you began backpedaling on some "Bbbbut I'm making sales too"...showing that sad picture of you of giving away one raggedy ass bottle, acting like you moving weight like Avon Barksdale, when you only selling a nick on the corner. As if that one bottle translated into some sort of seriously tangible profit for your company. As if that "profit" earned by such a grandiose effort of bluster and spectacle wouldn't have been superseded by half an hour's work at a minimum wage job. As if MollyWaterCo didn't just do that 100-fold in the matter of minutes.
And that is why MollyWaterCo was able to take your corner, the one you spat on, without an "excuse me".

There are plenty of established people on this forum, that don't brazenly rub their successes and achievements in other members faces, people you could have potentially broken bread with, if they were pleased with your business and product. But you let self-aggrandized notions of self cloud your business judgment, and you let a rival take money you apparently didn't want right out of your hand.
So no, you ain't Avon Barkdsale...
you Wallace nikka...Wallace.
