Cigar Bid - Page 17

The cap shouldn't be cracked like that. It could be shipping damage but I've always gotten a well packed package from them. No much so from cigarauctioneer, where they'll throw a box of cigars in a box 10 times it's size and not pack it with anything.

I have that same Pelican case, with the engraved name plate attached and it is awesome!!! I pulled out some of the foam, and can easily fit twice as many smokes than what it claims! Enjoy!

Cuz I just got it. Don't worry. It's for travel.

cmitch · 03-16-2012, 05:40 PM

Aaaaaaand a pack of 20 Padilla top tier featuring 4 different sizes. I'm toast.

big pete · 03-16-2012, 05:38 PM

Forgot I bidded on a 15-ct travel humidor and 3 finger leather case last weekend and won both of them. Doh! I don't even need them...

shopkins82 · 03-16-2012, 08:38 PM

Big_Pete, if you don't need that 3-finger, PM me a pic and price and maybe we can work something out...

big pete · 03-16-2012, 11:22 PM

It wouldn't be worth it to ship. I got it for $5 before shipping.

If it was mine, I would just bomb it out or throw it in as an extra during a trade at some point.

I have read that a bunch.. Taking out the foam and able to fit way more.

Anybody else ever get an empty box from the cigarbid? I got one on tuesday, with an invoice in it and nothing else. They were very quick to re-ship and did not question me at all, which is cool. But seriously, an empty box? I've had two mistakes in packaging in a row now, both of which have been made right ASAP. What I take from this is that someone in distribution needs to be canned but the customer service is top notch.

Mark,
That is very consistent with what most have found for years now. CI has clearly decided that shortchanging their picking and packing operation can be easily offset with great CS. I've had a number of complaints about shipments over the years, but they've always made it right immediately. Great prices on cigars I want combined with that CS is enough to keep me coming back.

Yup...they are in my humidor. I did a nice job of taping it back up, too.

Must be why I always get my shipment on time and in proper order. I smacked you around good in the NST a while back as I am sure you remember and take care to get my goods to me on time and in good shape.... <G>

I just wanted to say thanks a lot to everyone on the forum. I hadn't been on cbid until I joined this forum last week, now I'm checking it at least 4-5 times a day and have already won 5 auctions. I blame all of you for my new addiction good thing I have a second humidor coming this week.
