I like him, just from what you've described about him here. I would definitely buy from a guy like that, and probably regardless of whether I could find a cheaper price somewhere else.terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650618993131658031.post-74819179621330833032014-02-04T11:11:07.706-06:002014-02-04T11:11:07.706-06:00"I do watch some of the game to catch all the..."I do watch some of the game to catch all the advertising hoopla. Some of the commercials were funny/interesting, but, in my mind, most were lame or just plain dumb."<br /><br />The ONLY reason I watch the Super Bowl is for the commercials and I was totally disappointed this year. Also, the actual game, was the most boring game, ever. At least Bruno Mars was entertaining! <br /><br /><br />From what you've explained, I am a huge fan of this Jim "Mattress Mac" McInvale person!<br /><br />"Turned out that almost 80% of the people who participated bet that the Broncos and Seahawks would win. And Mac lived up to his promise. Wound up costing him $600,000 that weekend. That bet was not covered by insurance so it came out of his pocket. …. If you come in and buy $6000 worth of furniture and have it delivered by game time and, if the Seahawks win, you get it for free. No strings. Needless to say, that bet did not come out as he had hoped and this weekend's game wound up costing somewhere near the $7 million mark."<br /><br /><br /><br /> HOLY SHIT! HOLY FUCKING SHIT! meleah rebeccahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08116656129112106780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650618993131658031.post-44115407689771253282014-02-04T09:22:14.392-06:002014-02-04T09:22:14.392-06:00Wow, whatta guy!

I can only imagine how HE felt - especially after that first play. <br />But good for him for keeping his word and being a good sport about it. I would imagine all the free publicity along with his honorableness will ensure more customers in the future. I have a feeling he'll be alright... heck, it makes ME want to buy from him. Does he deliver up here?<br />ShadowRun300https://www.blogger.com/profile/12135867148518005153noreply@blogger.com
