Dude, fell for the Gurhka hype as well. Got 35 stick of various ones. 25 of them are not great (not the worst thing Ive smoked). Ever since I have been on here I have learned a lot about good and great.

You're not alone!

My latest CIGARBID winnings/purchases

***A. Fernandez Overruns Toro~ bundle of 25
only had one of the 25 but nothing awesome, it was a gamble as I like so much of AJF's stuff

****San Miguel Toro/San Miguel Belicoso~5packs love these the robusto's seem to be the best out of all the sizes I've had.

****Torano Exodus '50 Years' Torpedo Single, sitting in my humi

****La Herencia Cub. Osc. Fuerte Toro, 2 singles, bought a box of these a year ago and was great these 2 singles, are just ok to good not great.

****Sol Cubano Cuban Cab. 'A' [bx/3] Love the SCCC's

****Padilla Black Bear- 5 Pack another gamble, looked great but are more mild than I'd thought.

****Cabaiguan Petite Cabaiguan - 5 pack had a coulple great Cabaiguan

****Obsidian Mini Corona - 5 Pack like these alot in the robusto/toro size so took a shot on these.

****Felipe II Fat-Boy Extra~ this was the cheapest 5 pack out of all of them and was probably the best. go figure.

Haha glad to hear it. Just wish I had spent a little bit more time on the forums before I ran off to the devil site. Oh well, you live and you learn. Now I take advice from the veterans before I pick up anything

I have almost given up on CBid. They just are not putting up the cigars I like at all.

Free fall isn't falling for me, I gotta refresh the page to get a new price.

It definitely makes watching some of this stuff kind of a pain.

Guys I just want to throw this out there. I know a few are new to C Bid and I was guilty of this also when I first started out.....do your home work. I went on last night and was interested in a few things until I saw the bids were within a couple of bucks (literally ) of CIs regular price. With free shipping they would be cheaper off the regular site. Now drunk bidding is a whole different story

I see that on quite a few auctions. I always check prices before I bid

I've done this a few times, but nothing more than like a buck over what they cost. Lesson learned!

Just got 5er of Graycliff Avelino Lara 80th Piratas for $20, they go for $75 on CI. Also have 5ers of Gran Habano Vintage 2002 Robustos ($9) and Fonseca Arana Toros ($4). Two of my favorite smokes cheap. Love that place, of course my wife is going to kill me. I have some cutters and other stuff this week too...

Snagged 2 (10) packs of Montecristo white #2s for $45 & $42.50. Not much of a mild cigar smoker but couldn't pass on that deal. They were on the free fall auction for a while!

loved the FG Fatboys and at $7 for a 5ver go for it. Black bears weren't bad just not all that great either. Both me and my buddy said the same about them. YMMV of course.

Got my first shipment ever in from Cbid today to begin my hobby . Wife was less than pleased when UPS made the drop off as she was reminded of the money spent lol. This is the beginning of the end I believe
