Raz,

You are right. It's might quick temper. However you are correct.
I just hate the pack mentality and unnecessary bashing just to bash.
Hopefully you will shop with me again.



I appreciate all the good words and support from everyone else. Any locals needing a place for turkey day hit me up. We have a 44 pound turduckin and that's just the start.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Best,

Mauro

I wasn't called out and I'm not bitching

IDC if you want to buy WvsG but maybe when the fanboi shutters come off sock puppet you will realize that hurling abuse at past / present / future customers is just a pretty poor way to behave.

This is coming from someone who used to be a regular Farinellis customer, I spent like 2500 with Mauro and offered to put him up if he came to Australia.

I knew little abt Mauro or his label b4 his ridiculous rant....I suppose some ppl like being bullied & respond positively to it, but I'm sure there's a battery of people who'll run in the other direction after having read that bullshit.

Hey Mauro

Yeah your temper gets the better of you, which is a shame because I can remember you doing alot for people at Farinellis.

I think there is obviously a positive feedback loop regarding the bashing, you got fired up a few times and people have long memories. You got to get someone to handle PR Mauro haha.

Hope WvsG is working out well for you man, I was looking at your sweatpants the other day.

Enjoy Thanksgiving

I see three people posting they're now buying something and just you bitching about being called out. 3>1
At least in American Math.


Does your "American Math" say anything about people who have opinions but don't necessarily publicize those opinions? Also, he wasn't bitching.

Not really. I like how he lists specifics and makes concrete comparisons / arguments vs. the general diplomatic fluff bullshit. To some people, it's the final product / cost that matters.

I was the guy who was actually "called out" by Mauro in his rant, in large part because I called his products "decent." I've only known about WvG for a few
months and have been happy with everything I've purchased from him. Hell, I even apologized to the guy after after my post. Of course, after thinking about
it over a delicious glass of Makers Mark and ginger ale, I don't really think my original post was bad. Ok, I called his products "decent." Sure, I didn't say they
were great or the most incredible things in the world, but I also didn't say they were average, below average or bad. I just said that they were "decent" and
that I have purchased quite a few things from them. I am a toteholder so I understand that me might have been mad that someone in the customer loyalty
program would only have called his products as "decent" and not super ******* awesome. Anyways, after the drink and thinking about his disproportionate
response, I have to say that I would have a real hard time ever purchasing anything from WvG again. Of course, I'm only one customer, so who gives a **** right.

I do enjoy Mauro's no-**** attitude towards stupid PM's and constant stupid questions from consumers. But that was not what I did. I merely called his
products decent, just like Allen Edmonds shoes, Samsung phones, Kiehls skin-care products, etc. These afformentioned products are all "decent" and NOT average, below average, or bad.

Now what's so bad about that.


Anyways, I guess I'm just going to get in my BMW (who makes DECENT cars btw) and go enjoy a small hike here in beautiful Denver.


PS:
Maruo, please cancel my order from this morning.

Oh I get it. You baited Mauro with calling his products decent, then said your BMW was decent, thus saying that by decent you actually meant ******* excellent. You shrewd turd, you.
