I've gotten some really good buys here at cbid but typically the blends I like seem to go at around the same price each time That being said what are your favorites that usually sell here at or below the $5 mark

For a fiver? Since I'm kinda cheap and have a coolerdor full of "Bur's Buck a Stick Yard Gars".

At $5 a cigar the selection is pretty wide if you can buy by the box. Don Pepin's, Alec Bradley's and AF are all fine by me when I re-stock the quality humidor.

My favorite "sub" doesn't smoke but, she does care about length and ring gauge.

Why would everyone tell what cigars they felt were a good cheap deal on the auction? Then they wouldn't be cheap deals anymore.... Isn't that a topic in the n00b please read?

The CI Legends are all well constructed. And none of them truly suck. Try a few and find one you like. I am partial to a couple different ones that go for $3 here.
Closer to $5, I think you can/should try anything from Crowned Heads. Nothing bad there; firesale prices on here; enough variety that there's surely something by CH that you'll like.

Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro

If I had an everyday smoke, this would be a leading candidate. Quick Google search brings them up at little less than $120 per box of 25.

The SGs are definitely one of my favorites but given the scarcity and slightly higher price, would be a little harder to be considered an everyday smoker for me. But, I do love 'em! Drool

Did find out about a place that has the SGs for under $5 each so I may be singing a slightly different tune pretty soon.

I found the place who's name must not be uttered purely by accident and have purchased a few items from them. Always been happy with the service and products.

Choooch ... So you would trade away an Angel instead of giving away cigar information....

The "Great Cigar Meltdown of 2017" has had a number of unfortunate consequences. One of the more severe aftershocks is the decrease in product ,producing greater demand and general mass hysteria. For example, one of my interesting finds advertised earlier (Though It is not my favorite under 5 cbid dollar stick ), the AJ Fernandez blended produced LaPerla 1515, are in the 40-60 dollar range this last week. I have seen them rarely reaching the low forties but as stated typically in the mid twenties to thirties. Needless to say, I hope the weather clears up sooner than later or at the very least some sense of sanity is restored..😁😁😁😁😯😯😯

Donkey droppings were in that price range. Of course they don't exist any more, so I'm not sure this helps any. .

I'd have to say the Oliva Serie V, because I just got a 36-count box of the lanceros for $102 ($2.83/cigar), and two 24-count boxes of the Double Robustos for $81 per box ($3.37/cigar). Those are both way under $5.

I just love the cigar reviewers who say stuff like, "At $7.50 per cigar, this is a solid value" or "At $10.00 each, the price point is reasonable."

Yeah, $7.50 or $10.00 IF YOU'RE CLUELESS, yep! Herfing
