THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
After you win an auction. Does cbid automatically charge your credit card on file and ship your item? I can't find anything on it. Sorry for the dumb question, I'm new.

Yes on the card part. You can select shipping auctions to weekly or daily.

Weekly is better, you can buy a lot, and save money on the super saver shipping program.
When you go broke, blame Echo :)

I like Cigar Monster, but haven't been too impressed with the deals in the last two weeks.

Thanks, I wasn't sure how it went. Can you change the shipping method? I chose daily at first. I didn't think I would bid on so much. Wow was I wrong.

Yes, you can change it.

Just be careful with cbid because you will quickly need a fridgerador.

No kidding. I went from a table top, to two table tops, to lots of Tupperware to my 27 bottle wine cooler humidor. Beware of CBbid, it is the devil.

Yeti is overkill.
Any good 5 day or 7 day cooler will work great.
120 or 150 qt, will get small fast.
My overflow cooler is a $20 cheapo from wally world.

Best deal on a cooler is the one at Sams Club. 150qt 7 day ice for $69. Yeti's are nuts. Unless you want to throw your sticks off a cliff into a river an Igloo will work just fine.

Yep big unnecessary overkill. Get one of the 7 day Coleman coolers from walmart and be done w/ it.

I ended up with one of the 7 day ones.

So I have pretty much been bidding without actually thinking or looking. I added everything up today and I'm over $750. I think I'm done for a bit.

Yea. I bid on everything I liked, or thought I'd like, then I kept getting emails from them about cigars that were going up. Well, they all looked like I might like them.

Haha. Well, atleast I saved a lot of money... Right?

The worst thing you can do is scroll through everything that looks good and toss out a lowball bid. I did that a year or so ago and bought a ton of cigars on bids I KNEW would never stick.

I did that my 2nd week on there and landed several 10 for 10 and 5'ers for 5 bucks or less.

Every stick retailed around 10/ea too! I've looked recently and they are all going for 4-5x what I bid. Couldn't believe it.
