I know this isnt as good as the real thing but it gives you an idea what your getting. I will get you guys a real pic soon.

This place isnt the manufacturer. They are distributors. They buy in bulk and re-sell locally.

I want (seriously) several cases of Starburst Crazy Beans.  I can get them for $1.98 at Walmart a bag.  Can you get me  them in large quantities?  They are quite possibly the worlds most delicious candy.

No offense intended to OP, but anyone who does business with him based on the information in this thread alone is an idiot and supports scammers.

If OP is willing to send before receiving payment, ignore the above.

Apparently he is willing to ship first. Do you think he will be sending wax instead of chocolate? (Well... since they've changed the definition of chocolate, this is the case whether it comes from the factory or not!)

Anyway, sounds like you can even pay after eating.

Mmmmm, candy.

Now this is something that might get me to part with my bitcoin.

These didn't fall off the back of a truck somewhere, did they?


Title: Re: Who wants candy?
Post by: CANDIES on March 10, 2012, 04:19:03 AM
I promise nothing fell off the truck. They regularly hand out free candy to their employees and their customers. My contact comes home with candy all the time. I have been giving it away to friends and bringing some to work. I noticed how expensive candy has become so I figured I might try to make a few coins. Will ship first for you too MoonShadow. Anybody with over 1000 posts can try before they buy.

In that case, I'll take a sampler pack.  Whatever you can assemble into whatever standard shipping container that you choose to use.  PM me a description and a price, please.

Somebody in my family works at a candy factory. I was given a giant box of snickers, reeses peanut butter cups, and hershey kisses with almonds. Everything is factory sealed. Its fresh too just came off the truck a few days ago. We can get all kinds of candy. Starbursts, skittles, gummy bears, tootsie rolls, chocolate raisins, jolly ranchers, laffy taffy. Pretty much any candy you can think of. Right now i only have the chocolates but i can get you whatever you want on request. Im selling a half pound of the chocolates for 2 coins with free shipping within the US. Mix and match any of the 3 brands. I know im new so i will ship first for those with rep. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

You're selling half a pound of candy for two bitcoins? Sorry, but am I misunderstanding you? That doesn't seem like a very good deal. Eleven ounces of Hershey Kisses with almonds are under $4 at Walmart. Three half pound bags for two bitcoins would be approaching a good deal, but still isn't anything wonderful.

Walmart doesnt accept coins. It also costs me $5 to ship. I think my price is fair.

Sure, Walmart won't accept bitcoins, but bitcoins are fungible. I don't think many people have a problem exchanging their BTC to USD.

It may cost you $5 to ship, but you can ship quite a few of your (freely acquired) bags of candy for $5. Why claim free shipping?

Hell, this is a free market so that man could sell at $100 if he wanted to. Just ask for a discount, and if he doesn't give one go do business elsewhere.


Title: Re: Who wants candy?
Post by: CANDIES on March 10, 2012, 04:12:41 PM
Exactly. I dont expect everybody to like my product or my prices but there really isnt any need to hassle me about it. If you dont like what Im doing go to walmart.

It's a free market. Also, it's a forum for free discussion.

Haha.  ;D Well, I have every right to point out how flimsy your deal  might seem. I'd like to see people get good values. You should also mind your own affairs!

Anyhow, I really don't want to be rude, like some others would be. I wish you luck in your wheeling and dealings.  8) I'll shush and leave you be now...

Hey, everyone!! This guy's got *fresh*, delicious, no strings attached, FREE SHIPPING, CANDY!! He'll even ship first.. you can't go wrong  ;)


Title: Re: Who wants candy?
Post by: CANDIES on March 10, 2012, 07:31:33 PM
This is true you can say whatever you like. That doesnt mean you should be a jerk. Since your so quick to talk about how flimsy my deal is let me point out a few things to you....

You cant buy candy for coins anywhere else. I offer people a way to satisfy their sweet tooth without having to spend money in their pocket.
No matter what store you go to they will all charge you tax. I will never charge you tax. Sure its not a large amount but it does add up.
My candy will always be fresher. Most retailers sit on their product for weeks. I get my supply right off the deliver truck and in your hands without it sitting around.
I deliver. You dont have to go anywhere. Your candy comes to you.
There is more candy at this factory than any local store. The facility is huge. All they do is candy. The selection is one of the best in the country.
I can get you quantity. Go to walmart and tell them you want 100 pounds of snickers. See if they can do that for you. I know i can.
Large retailers wont give you a break. You buy at the advertised price and thats it. If you buy a few pounds from me I will give you a break.
Large retailers dont care about their customers. I will take care of mine. Repeat customers will usually get free samples with their purchase.
I ship first. You cant go anywhere and get candy sent to your door without paying for it first.

I think my offer is pretty dam good. Im confident I will have many happy customers.    ;D

This is a really good counter argument. Go to Wal-Mart and buy your candy for bitcoins then.

Exactly.

Inaba, i need to know what size bag you usually buy for $2. How many ounces?

Also, i just opened that box of candy we got the other day. There are hershey bars, heath bars, snickers, reeses, and butterfingers. I should have pics tomorrow or the day after.

Im not sure we will be able to work out a deal for your crazy beans. Most retailers sell them for $3-5 a bag. Even if i buy a case i cant do $2.

Title: Re: Who wants candy?
Post by: CANDIES on March 13, 2012, 02:52:46 AM
LOL i can tell your crazy for your crazy beans Inaba. Its hard to give you a price at this point but im guessing around $3. Do you like the original beans? They are cheaper and easier to get. The original has a higher production rate. They distribute by the pound. But the crazy beans are strictly 13 ounce bags. Even if you want pounds you cant buy it like that. You would have to buy cases of several 13oz bags. Its a very difficult item to secure in bulk.


Title: Re: Who wants candy?
Post by: Inaba on March 13, 2012, 03:15:24 AM
It's difficult because of how much awesome they pack into such a little bean.  No, I don't like the original beans, mostly because nearly 1/3 of the bag is the goddamned green apple ones.  The green apple flavor is the anti-crazy bean.  The worst flavor OF ALL TIME!  OF ALL TIME!!

But seriously... no.  I hate green apple.

Dang, I wanted like a tub of Crazy Beans delivered so I could swim in it Scrooge McDuck style.  My dreams, they are shattered. :(
