If it wasn't my standard label, it was a custom \"It was a pleasure doing business with you,\" \"Appreciate your continued business,\" or \"Thank you for the opportunity\" on the label with my website at the bottom. Their clients loved it. I know this because quite a few turned into repeat customers of mine!\n\nI still have contacts around that area in Kona, so DM me if you are interested and I'll put you in touch with them.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "grpcbq7", "text": "Gambling trip or gambling related gifts.", "replies": [{"id": "grpckm6", "text": "Sorry, I missed the price target in OP.
