Someone take away my cbid password - please!!!

[sevans105]

It's official. I'm a mess. I've run out of coolers for my cigars and I have another order already on its way. I just got my latest package this afternoon....some good looking stuff, but holy cow, do I REALLY need that MONSTER MADURO sampler? (yes, yes I do)

I'm hooked and hooked deep.

[Mugen910]

no problem..gimmie your account info and I'll have it fixed.

[dwoodward]

Looks like you need one of these:

Just give me your CC #, sign in name and passowrd and I'll take care of this "problem" for you.

[Chainsaw13]

I have an easier solution, just change your shipping address to my house. I have plenty of room in my cabinet. Anytime you want, you can come by and grab something to smoke. :tu

Not really, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn last night...

[rostamizadeh]

I understand your pain. I recently discovered cbid, and I feel this compulsion to bid that I can't control.

[Goldie]

Thankfully I never got into Cbid, or else the wife and I would be living in our cars.

Good deals to be had for sure.

[bsmokin]

Luckily I've decided to stick with CC purchases only for some time... so I've been safe from Cbid that way... but I've been LOADING UP on the 'merchandise.' I have my account configured for 'weekly shipping'... which happens every Thursday. This week I'll be getting a HUGE package of crap.... and will have some 'splainin to do to my wife :rolleyes:

Tell her the truth! You got a DEAL on everything. They love that ****. You SAVED money.

[pektel]

what's cigar bid? Also , if i knew where to get a hook up with genuine cc's, i may not bother with others for a while. But until then i will find a few deals on ci to hold me over.

Otherwise known as the devil site... www.cigarbid.com. Auction site some great deals to be had! Its dangerous!!! Youve been warned... ;)

[ujponds]

I'm expecting my first package from them this week. What kind of condition do they come in, ready to smoke or do they need to rest?

Some of that answer will depend on how long it sits on your porch. I have smoked some of their stuff right out of the box, it was fine.

Being a Noob, Cbid has plenty of stix to try, and build up your bombing arsenal at a decent price.

CI/cbid/cigar.com, all the same company, and they all ship wet. Best to give them a bit of rest. :tu

I guess wet is better than dry.

[bishjd123]

I should have gotten the message when there was a choice between daily or weekly shipping.

[sevans105]

If you have avoided the financial black hole that is cbid...SAVE YOURSELF!!! Seriously though, it really does have some good deals...I picked up a box of rocky patel vintage 1990 for 38 bucks. RP 90s for less than 2 bucks a stick!! How could I not!

[bsmokin]

:tpd: HA! SO TRUE!!!!

[sevans105]

Cbid is so bad because the buying is WAY more addictive than the smoking....the Quickies page always gets me. All the bids start at a buck....How can you not bid on a box of RP Vintage 1990's for a buck...then is rises, and you HAVE to bid because now it's 20 bucks...and 20 bucks is still super cheap, then its 40 bucks....and heck, that's still just 2 bucks a stick right? So you bid again, and again. And oh, those Man o War samplers look awesome...have to bid on those, Oh, and there's those 601 Blue labels those guys on CA were talking about. Pretty soon you wind up with 150 cigars coming.

The next week you do it ALL over again. BAD BAD BAD. Like I said in another post, "If I wasn't already divorced, this would get me there".

I just checked my new winnings....I have another 100 coming. (oops)

[Blueface]

no problem..gimmie your account info and I'll have it fixed.

Read OP's post and wondered how soon I was beaten to this response.

Yup... I have had the same problem for a while. I'm spending myself into oblivion when I SHOULD be saving for the 3 - 4 boxes that I KNOW I want. Ugh.

...I have another massive shipment going out tomorrow (I do the weekly to save on shipping) and it's gonna sting my bank account. And overflow my little desktop humi.

I might be able to fit a few in my humi for you... That is if you need storage space... I WILL NOT promise that they will still be there when you come back looking for them though...

You guys are SOOO generous and willing to help. ;) I come to you with a true need and you simply make fun of me. Guess I'll just have to drown my sorrows by bidding on more cigars. OH WAIT. Crud.

[dannysguitar]

I also need some help. I just spent $80 that I don't have. I need counseling.

[JohnE1000]

you better throw away your cc now, you've been warned!

[sevans105]

We should start a cbid support group.... call it CBA. (Can't call it CA for obvious reasons). 12 step our way back into financial sobriety.

Same here, although not so much cbid as monster and Famous' sale page. Problem is I keep seeing stuff that would make a good 1hr smoke that I can take to work, while the stuff I REALLY want is either too expensive for daily smokes or takes too long to smoke for me to deal with at work.

[weak_link]

Your problems could be worse. :D

My Only Solution, "Don't Look"!:D

[cigarz]

I feel the same pain. I only smoke 3 to 4 'gars a week, and at the rate I am going (I did a little extrapolating), in three years I will have more cigars than I could smoke if I lived to 100!

[whodeeni]

It's the sickness brotha it's the SICKNESS!!!

So many great deals and not enough money!

I think i have my cbid madness in check... Now
Viaje's that's whole nother problem!:r

[sevans105]

Ok...I get my 3 day coin today. I've made it for three whole days without bidding or buying any cigars or cigar related product. (I've looked, but looking isn't cheating....right? Right?) Let's see if I can go a whole week. Gonna be tough. I get my latest shipment in on Tuesday. I know I'm gonna be heavily tempted to see what the "latest and greatest" deals are. Any one wanna be my sponsor?

[druturn]

I just signed up on cbid thinking that i would buy a 5'er every now and again. My first night of bidding. . .I won 4 bids. . .and two are pending tomorrow. Dear. . .Lord. . .someone stop me!!!

[Virginia_Ghost]

Yup....It's bad here, too. I don't have space in my Humi for what I already have, much less the samplers/5 packs I have coming Thursday. Guess I'll have some ammo for bombs. :)

[sevans105]

Ok...I've made it 5 full days without bidding on anything. Man, it's rough! Especially since I was watching (ok and bidding....but I stopped days ago, really) http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=932768

[pektel]

Wow, someone scored a deal on that. Was it you?

[sevans105]

NO...It went for 65 bucks!! Such a deal. That's why CBID is soooooo bad. They throw in stuff like that periodically, so you HAVE to keep checking it. And of course you see other stuff you want. Like these Diesel Unholy Cocktail 5-packs for 20 bucks. ARGGGHH.

[pektel]

lol. That link is the only thing I've seen of cbid. And by the looks of it, I should run away screaming.

[sevans105]

Yeah, that's what I keep telling myself, but like the true addict, I keep coming back...one little look won't hurt....one little 5 pack....I really do need a new cutter....then WHAM. I have 300 bucks worth of stuff coming on Tuesday. Seriously though, if you do order from them, sign up for the weekly shipping. They lump everything together and ship on Thursday (arriving Tuesday of next week) and it saves you a ton on shipping costs.

Scott, your doing good. Stay in the "Program" and you might come out alive!

[Bill86]

The deals on that site look so good....but I gotta convince myself never to sign up. *CI is good enough, CI is good enough*

[CEC_Tech]

That is a great site. I've had to explain away so many charges and why the sticks I bought were such a great deal to my wife. It's almost joyous and painful at the same time. Those bastages. They may as well be crack dealers because I keep going back to them for my fix.

[ujponds]

I try to keep it to a 5er a week and have been doing well with it. . . BUT. . . This week I'm moving from a 50 ct humi to a cooler and there is going to be ALOT of room. My wife is going to be pissed!

[Chemyst]

My New Year resolution was to not buy any cigars until July 4th.
It was tough but I made it.

There were some xlnt deals on the Monster, JoeCigar and CBid,
but I kept telling myself that the deal would come around again.

Didn't buy anything online until August 5th, when I got a box of
Padilla '32 lanceros from CBid. Box split, anyone?

If I can go for 6-8 months, you can too.
Be strong, and realize that the deals, and cigars, never stop.
There will be other deals. You don't need THIS one.

Hang in there.

Chemyst :cool:

[Chingas]

Brother. Where were you when I was looking for fellow Jersians?

Nicely done on the will power!

[druturn]

Alright, I am OFFICIALLY addicted to cbid as well. I just pulled a quick buy on some perdomo fresh rolled toros and figured I might as well bid on a graycliff 1666 and DPG Blue sampler and a 5'er of Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet since I could get each shipped for an extra .50. I thought I had just blown my semester's cigar fund, but I guess I could scrounge up another $40. . .right? :D

[rizzle]

Hadn't been on in a while and took a quick look a couple days ago. Put a bid on 2 boxes and shut her down. Lost one of them, but then last night scored a box of Don Carlos #4's for a freaking song. Got my happy face on this morning when I saw the e-mail.

[timj219]

Just got my first weekly cbid delivery today. And to think I was worried about the addictive nature of nicotine! I was cruising the famous auction page before the last of my cbid auctions even closed. The addictive power of cigar auctions makes nicotine seem like child's play.

[Chemyst]

There are a bunch of us that meet in the Cherry Hill/Voorhees area.
With football season starting up, Sunday games, for sure. We're
doing pre-season games on Fri. night now.

We post on the cbid forums for this. dpnewell usually hosts.

If you need more info, LMK.

[Superbad]

I used to have boxes rolling in from the devil site all the time. Fortunately my favorite cigars are not available there.

[sevans105]

:jdOHHHHH ouch....just got the email with the invoice for my latest CBID extravaganza. This one HURT the wallet. 20 bucks here, 40 bucks there, it all seems so innocent...till it all adds up to PAIN. :jdOHHHHH

[bsmokin]

Yea, you told me about that a while back but haven't been out to meet you guys. I will try and make it happen this year.
