Holy crap. I bought multiple boxes of the same cigars in different vitolas for very different prices. Heck of a week.

Send away Scott...no way in heck could I not use some of the things you are getting! :r :r :r

Oh....and make sure you are sober....even clean it's tough to resist. Messed up, it is irresistible.

Maybe I should start a business installing breathalizer machines on cigar enthusiest computers. If you blow anything over a .05, the computer won't turn on.

Re: It's that Devil site again!

No hurt taken Kevin, you don't survive as the oldest of 7 kids...6 of them boys..without a moderately thick skin. Besides, I think it's kinda funny too. if it wasn't me, I'd think it was frikkin hilarious. I have no problem being the"bad example"object lesson.

Besides, now I have TONS of bomb ammo! Kinda excited about that part of this comedic tragedy.

I just don't get this. I have visited the "devil site" on numerous occasions and never, repeat, NEVER purchased anything from there.

Why?

Never found a price on anything that I wanted to buy, which was significantly better than prices I had on other sites. I have seen lots of cigars I wanted, but the bids were already at, or above, prices I had at other retailers.

For example, with 11 hours left, they have a box of AF Hemingway Signatures up and the price is already $130. What it will be as the feeding frenzy starts is anybody's guess. I can get them for $!49 every day at another site - with free shipping. Is it worth the effort to bid on them to save what, a couple bucks? If even that once the bidding is over? No, it isn't.

Again, there is a box of 601 blue toros presently at $79 with 11.5 hours left. I can get them for $90 and free shipping. What's the big deal? They'll be over that when they finally go in that time.

The other thing is, the stuff I want usually goes high. Sure, I could get a snot-load of cigars there cheaper than other places, but nothing that I really want to smoke.

I hear (read) people complain about how they lost their minds at the devil site all the time.

Come on guys, grow some will-power, you sound like a bunch of girls caught up in the rage of black Friday.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Here's the cart on another site - if I chose to pull the trigger.
Boxes of: AVO Heritage Short Robustos, El Rey del Mundo Robustos, Kristoff Maduro Corona, and a Stinky for $270.39. And that is at their regular prices.

I won't, it is a wonderful dream. It is like window shopping. But, I don't have the disposable income available at this time to do so.

I like the freefall part of the site. I only pull the trigger if I can get a good cigar for under $3.

Dang, I didn't get to you in time. I asked this very same question. Now it has me in it's hold. Use parental controls on your computer to block it,before it's too late.

I really like the Pioneer Valley Maduros and can get them considerably cheaper on the devil site than they are priced at CI. I haven't seen them anywhere else, but haven't looked that hard as they are inexpensive. I got a box of toros for $28 plus $6 shipping, On CI they are $49.95 + s/h.

Rev is right. For the high end stuff, cbid is rarely that good of a deal. However, for the mid range stuff, lookout! I actually have two separate humidor collections.....one for all my friends who I keep supplied, and one for ME. Cbid is great for finding decent sticks for a couple bucks a piece. Nothing awesome....no Opus X's or rare Tatuaje's but definitely decent stuff that usually run 5 to 7 a piece other places.
And it's kind of addicting to try and get the deals.

I could go even farther by saying, most of the more expensive limited edition type cigars can be found for even less in a B&M compared to online retailers. At least this has been my experience.

I've found lots of good deals on cigarbid and cigarauctioneer, but I don't expect to be buying anything other than $3-$7 cigars.
