Made my first bid and win yesterday. Just a 5 pack of some Alec Bradley's
Threw in a $13 Bid didn't think I would get them, but figured what the hell.
Got an e-mail this morning saying I won. Is this how it starts?

That's EXACTLY how it starts. The next step is finding something you like and putting a reasonable bid in for it. Then you think to yourself "Well, to make the shipping worthwhile I should bid on something else." So you find something else you like and put in a reasonable bid on that, too. Then you realize that if either of those bids doesn't win you're not making out so well on the shipping. So you bid on a third item just in case, even though you don't really have room for them. And then you win all three bids.

Then, of course, there's the late night "Drink & Bid", where you have a few too many, wake up the next morning, and check your e-mail to find four bid confirmation e-mails and you have no idea what you bid on.

Went on a bit of a tear with the Devil:

Diesel 6-pack with lighter and cutter - $31 (reg $49)
Box of Cain Maduro torpedoes - $61 (reg $149)
box of MOW Ltd. Toro Grande (10) - $39 (reg $69)
10er of Fallen Angel robustos - $35 (reg $60)

I didn't think I was going to get the Cains. I set my limit at $65.

Frickin' Devil.

Very ironic seeing this post on the top, since I just came back inside from the UPS guy dropping off my first order from there. If this is how it starts, guess I better hold on tight, the slope looks a little slippery from here.

Hey everyone, this is my first post but thought it fitting to bring back this thread since I just got back into enjoying the occasional stick and discovered this site. What started off as a quest to find a decent but inexpensive humidor has sent me wayyyy over the edge in a very short time. This is just what I've picked up since June 18th:

6/18 - 10 Rocky Patel vintage 1992 Robustos - $38
6/19 - 5 Rocky Patel Royal Vintage Toro - $20
6/24 - 4 Drew Estate Natural Irish Hops - $20
6/25 - 5 R&J 1875 El Gordo's incl 5 Herf-a-dor and lighter - $28
6/26 - 5 My Father #1 Robusto - $30
6/29 - 1 Tuscany 100ct Humidor - $43
6/29 - 21 J Fuego Sangre de Toro Toros' - $55
6/29 - 1 Colibi grip cutter - $10
6/30 - 5 H. Upmann 1844 Res. Robusto - $19
6/30 - 10 Alec Bradley Flight Sampler $28
7/1 - 5 Oliva Serie 'O' Torpedo - $23
7/1 - 5 My Father No. 1 - $33
7/1 - 5 H. Upmann 1844 Res. Churchill - $19

Normally I'd say I have a problem but from what I've seen the selection gets pretty narrow after a while. After reviewing things further I'm hoping I can stay clean for at least a month, suurrrre I can.

I wasn't aware of it but apparently it's a no go for TOE so it's gone


If someone can edit the above mention that I made about it I'd appreciate it...

Hmmmm, I wonder if there enough of us addicts to game the system? Maybe post here what we are bidding on so we don't bid against our brothers????

Do NOT mention Cigar Asylum on Cigar Bid. Thank you.
