Funny story... BigGrin

I was looking for some cigars to get for the bargain bin humidor down at the Vets Hall.

I saw a Lot that showed an image of 5 Vegas cigars, with their description, but the gray banner said:
5-Pack: Makers Choice Natural (25)

The bidding was almost done, so I bid the $9 and took a chance.

Checked my email later and had one email that said I bid $10 on the 5-pack of 5 Vegas and $9 on the 25 Makers Choice and I won both bids.

So, you get two bids in one. And one is just a fun random generator thing by the system.

(I posted an image yesterday, but it won't show up for a couple of days.)

My guess is you have what is called a very precious metal membership and this being one of the benefits.

LOL, me too I guess. I was told by CS when I called that the shipping would be free but, no shipping confirmation yet.

Heheh.. they've opted not to show my image of the 1 lot that I bid on for $9 that said:

5-Pack: Makers Choice Natural (25) showing the 5 Vegas image... that ended up being a $10 bid on the 5 Vegas and the $9 bid on the Makers Choice.

They used to give away smiley face matches. I heard that continuing said practice was going to bankrupt the site so they stopped..😁😁😁
