I hope you're all happy...

[Kreth]

There I was, minding my own business, when I decided to check out cbid. "Oh look, a CI microfibre button-down shirt, that would be nice on the golf course." Sold for $19 to the newbie from NY. "Oh hey, there's a box of those tasty Perdomo Lot 826s, and the high bid is only $25." And they're all mine. BWAHAHAHAHA!
Please, stop me before I bid again... :r

The Devil got ya.....:r:r:r

It is slippery.

[Kreth]

I can stop any time I wan---oh look, a travel humidor...

I've been trying to win one of those for a long time!
I just have a set price and if it goes over, I find another one to bid on!

[Skywalker]

Your soul now belongs to Cbid!!!:fl

Step 1 - Remove your Credit Card from you wallet

Step 2 - Place your Credit Card in a container of water

Step 3 - Place container in freezer

At least this way, you will have to thaw it out before you pay. :D

I think its too late for that Jeff;)

no turning back now

[Kreth]

I think I got a pretty good deal on those Perdomos. CI normally sells them for $44.95/box. I can see how cbid got its nickname, though. Your CC is on file in your account, and there's really no confirmation process when you bid.

Senator Vitter: "Mr. Kreth, you're asking the American taxpayers for $1.2 billion dollars. Is that correct?"

Kreth: "Yes, Senator. I believe that figure should cover my cigar-related debt. You guys really screwed us with that S-CHIP deal."

Senator Shelby: "How does one man indebt himself for that amount of money?"

Kreth: "Well, sir, I lay the blame squarely on the membership of the Cigar Asylum internet forum. You see, I was perfectly happy smoking the occasional cigar, and was planning to pick up a small humidor to keep my smokes nice and fresh. But nooooooo! 'Go bigger!' they said. 'Stay away from cigarbid.com," they said. 'You'd better be really careful so you don't wind up addicted to cigarbid.com.' And the worst part is, they would put a link right in the post, so I all had to do was click it. Sure it started small, a box of cigars here, a humidor upgrade there. Next thing you know, I cashed in my life insurance to buy a rental property and converted it into a walk-in humidor. 50,000 cigars, all at my fingertips. They're enablers, the whole lot of them."
"And now I've got that cigar monkey so bad [sobbing] some days, I'll smoke a Swisher Sweet so I don't have to throw off the RH in my apartmentdor. Do you have any idea what 2500 pounds of beads costs these days?!"

Senator Gillibrand: "Let's take a recess so Mr. Kreth can compose himself."

This could be so real,,,:r:r


When I first joined C Bid I thought that I could control this,,no big deal after all I go to every golf store in America and I don't come home with gloves and balls and clubs,,,so what is the big freakin deal about a cigar website?

I'll tell ya the big freakin deal,,,it's like crack, man,,,the bidding, the cigars, the competition, the taste of your favorite cigar waiting for you to buy them and put them in your already burdened humidors,,,AAAGGGGGGHHHHHH:c

[Kreth]

:r:r and oh, looky there,,,a nice burl 20 count humi that I need in the garage when I don't feel like going upstairs to my other 5 humidors that I bought on C Bid,,,,

Speaking as someone who preceeded you on that first step that slid a bit.... beware what lies ahead. :D

[Cigary]

So you're the SOB that sniped that from me! :r

:r That would be Mr. SOB to you and there are plenty of 20 count burl humis on there. I paid $9 for mine,,,can you stand it? It's perfect for the garage. You'll have to tell me what your initials are on there so I know not to bid against you,,,it's the least I can do for a fellow Devil Worshipper.

[DMK]

There is no such thing as the "slippery slpoe"
It is a vertical drop off.....:r:r

LOL, I'm JV from Oneonta, NY. Usually when I bid I wait until the auction is almost over and snipe it, same as I do on the Bay. But I may be taking advantage of this (http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showthread.php?t=9580) in the near future.

I've found that the best solution is just to have my paycheck direct deposited to CBid -- that way there's no risk that I'll spend any of my money on anything other than cigars and related paraphernalia.

[brigey57]

The old saying "A fool and his money are soon parted" doesn't hold water to A Cbid cigar smoker and his money are soon parted, then the bank will chase you until you pay back everything you committed to CBID plus interest and overdraft fees!!!

Ok Jeff (JV) from Oneota,NY,,I will respect your turf unless I see you bidding on my RP's or Padilla 1932's,,,,or those Hemingways,,,or,,,ya know, maybe we should just split a box. I looked at the link you gave but I learned along time ago when I bought my car that I put it on the HELOC card and I can write off the interest,,,same with my cigars as they are now being written off. I gotta figure out some angle on this as I have been circling the drain for quite some time now.

I thought about doing that but when I gave it more thought I decided to make sure my cigars could be a write off,,,see above.:ss

No promises on the RPs. I've liked every stick I've tried so far, especially the Vintage 90s and Old Worlde Reserves. :ss

ya know, maybe we should just split a box.
That's certainly doable, but I have to take a short break to keep peace with the wife, at least until I get paid again... :r

To be honest, it's not gonna happen for me right away. But I think when I'm ready to upgrade I'll go straight to a Vino.

[Chompers]

It's gotten to a point where I'm happy when I get an email saying I've gotten outbid, because that way I can save money.

Aint that the truth,,,,when I get a notice that says I have been outbid I pretend it's coming from a higher power and that is good enough for me. :al

Damn you right back, I just had to check cbid for singles or 5ers of those two. Resisted the temptation to bid, for now... :r

[Kreth]

Gotta love cbid/CI. I received an e-mail this morning that my order (which I won Monday night) has shipped. When I check the tracking, it's already out for local delivery. Unfortunately, I woke up this morning feeling like I've been gargling drano, so no smokes for Jeff today.

I know how you feel. I have been battling a sore throat for 3 days. Has that stopped me from smoking? Nope. But, I have to work today...so I won't smoke...hopefully my throat will be healed by tommorow. Hope you feel better. :)
