Why? I just don't understand this.

Yeah, I see that from time to time as well. My only reasoning in when it makes sense is if you've won other lots, you may pay just a bit more because you've already incurred the shipping cost, so you're not paying any extra for that element of it.

More money than brains I suppose? J/K Well not really but sometimes these things also become pissing matches and people will go above retail just to win the auction. I see it all the time on both CBid and Cigar Auctioneer. A good amount of auctions go past what you can just log on to eithers retail sites and just buy it outright. Probably why these sites continue to exist. If everything went at a loss they probably would have called it quits some time ago.
