Can someone explaiin why cigarbid send out weekly orders on Thursday? It seems like more auctions close over the weekend than any other time, so why not monday. Besides if you ship on Monday the cigars don't have to wait in the mail over the weekend. Any comments?

Probably because it's easier for them that way.

I've been getting my weekly shipments on Fridays ... I just called UPS ahead of time, went down, and signed a letter of release for them to leave boxes without signature on my back porch ... tipped the manager with a sampler of a few premium cigars ... you may also want to ask Trish (Cbid customer service) if you can have them shipped to where you work ... she's the best.

glennpogue -- We decided against shipping weekly shippers on Monday because of the huge accumulation of daily shippers over the weekend. When you add in the additional volume, it could be a nightmare! Gonz (our webmaster) posted information about the weekly shipping on 3/1/02 if you'd like more information. You can email him at [email protected]
