I would like to know the disposition of the $500+ purchases.
I’ve never spent much time on Cbid. Depending on what those are, I might fill in for you. |
|
Yeah I'm definitely not clean from CB.
I'm about out of room, but 80 more on the way |

6/2/20.... if no Padron's were in that order wtf did you get!?!?!

CigarBid is dangerous, my wife hates it
Got a decent haul coming in to include some Punch Clasico Maduro's and some Ramon Bueso's. Whats surprising is that A) they ship out here, and B) the Airforce doesnt block the website |

Maybe weekly meetings, and sponsors should be set up for those of us in need.
All on my own I've earned a 1 week clean chip. I'm feeling week though. Lord give me the strength to not bid, help me to be satisfied with what I have, and help me to realize I cannot buy it all. |

Yeah well I've resigned myself to being a dirty, dirty cbid slut..... just snagged another 5pk of randos....

Wish I would have never seen this thread! Had no idea cigar bid existed until yesterday.

Needed an excuse to get the XO, guess getting my job offer in FL was as good as any! Attached File
I'm still a cbid slut though..... |

I made an account earlier this week after months of resisting the urge. My quest to try every H. Upmann is what pushed me over the threshold. I pray my wallet is spared...

Hello My name is isa268 and I'm an addict.
I was clean for months then I logged in today and have 4 orders, 3 of which I'm currently winning. |

I used to buy a lot off cbid. Only recently I needed to restock for the future. First shipment 60 cigars in 5 cigar lots. I tried to buy a cutter but good thing I did not, got one for Christmas.

As of yesterday I'm clean and planning to stay that way. I bought the last thing on my list a 10 pack of Oliva serie V Melanio for $41. It will hopefully be my finish on this addiction. I'll post a picture later of every weeks total, nearly 1K in December. I guess I have enough to last a while now.

Relapse
Attached File Them little Diesels are delicious. Corona 5 x 42s. Man'o'war belascos are good too. Olivia Saisons are great and can be had for ~$24 a bundle of 20. There are great deals to be had if you're patient. I try and stay under $2 a stick with shipping. |

Tips and tricks for anyone interested:
Pick your price, put your bids in and walk away. I loose a lot of auctions. I've seen identical lots close within minutes of each other and one be half the price. I will bid on my "opening day" weekly. If I don't win anything, I wait for the next week to bid again. If I win something, I bid on everything that week. I spam all the smokes I am interested in. I place the bids daily and only bid on stuff closing that day.That keeps you from starting a bidding war with someone who wants to pay too much.. I'll bid on 20+ lots per day. Click on all auctions, sort by ending soon, filter cigars and then set a max price and bid on everything you like. I usually set a $2 max and end up with all kinds of stuff. I think there might be an algorithm that promotes the stuff that has heavy bidding. Every month or so you can change your shipping day. If your shipping day is Thursday and Wednesday you change your day to Tuesday, you can get a few extra days of bidding in and save on shipping. Amazon has MTM plastic .50 ammo cans on sale every once and a while. They sell 3 cans and a stackable tray for $20. (Sub the Amazon deals thread) They work great for storing excess loot. I'm a noob and these might not be good cigars but I don't know any better. I smoke the ones I like and give away the rest. YMMV |

ARHank, what is "your day" I don't have an account yet but was thinking Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday might have less traffic? They seem to get higher over the weekend.
|
|
Right now I am shipping on Tuesday. I usually swap between Tuesday and Thursday. I haven't noticed any day more advantageous.
Maybe if I get bored one day, I'll stick some buying history in a spreadsheet and see what's up. Might be interesting. This week so far, I am averaging $1.20 ea before shipping. ETA: Attached File |

I got dirty.
How did I do? I know I screwed up as I have them in two shipments, as I have Thursday as my shipping day, other than that I think I did ok. Lost several lots but they went for more than my price point for this round. Thanks ARHank for the advice.

Smoked my first Oliva saison the other day, not bad especially considering how cheap they were.

Those bastards. I'm only out another $60. At this rate I am going to have to start smoking more.

$48.50 for 35 pretty decent cigars! Dang you are good at getting them cheap. About $1.38 a stick before the shipping and taxes.

Finally smoked one of the Diesel Coronas last night. Great!!!

I have been clean for almost a year now... (I have been busy putting in a pool)
A friend came over and brought cigars..... I will stay off Cigarbid.... I will stay off Cigarbid.... |
