Leaving amsterdam tomorrow. Just picked up a box of behike 52s from the Amsterdam LCDH. PM me if interested and what you are offering per stick. I have a price in mind. If there's enough interest I'll pick up 1 more box.

Thanks for the love. Sorry for the anger being stirred up. I've never been offered at cost on cbid or anywhere 2nd hand market, or other forums. To quickly mitigate the problem the sale is now over and the first person who has already requested some will get theirs for free. Itll be at your door sat!

You notice the catagory is trades? Since you want to sell them for a profit you are now Cbid competition. So you can't be on here. Don't be suprised if the ban hammer falls.

Seems like he was trying to do a brother or sister a favor. A far cry from a 1st post noob trying to get a quick buck.

I agree with gummy, have done some trades with abjd and he is ok in my book. Think he was trying to do a good deed and was taken the wrong way. Looks like he wanted to make something available on here that is htf at the moment because he had access.

p.s. I think the ban hammer has been gone since the fiasco of the maintenance shutdown, or at least it has seemed that way.

Now you tell him, poor guy is on his way back now. Hope he grabbed antibiotics before he left then.

1) To fulfill Joel's prophecy, go **** yourself.

2) Since Shaun vouches for you forget what I just said.

What you're doing would be considered a box split. These are done almost daily, many behind the scenes between people who have met here on the forums.

There are no set rules, but it's generally goes like this. A BOTL asks around if anyone is interested in a box split. One or more BOTL indicate interest. BOTL offering the split obtains actual sale price and notifies those wishing to partake what the price is based on the how many cigars they will be receiving as well as the actual cost to ship said cigars, usually via USPS in a flat rate box. Those interested will use paypal or some other mutually agreed upon method of payment.

It's considered very, very, very bad form to sell said cigars above what was actually paid for on these forums. Think of this as a community of friends, as 98.2% of those who actively post here regularly talk via cell, text via cell, are Facebook friends or have actually met face to face.

If on the other hand, you are looking to make a profit, I suggest you try OLH where gouging is acceptable.

In the future if you attempt to use these forums to profit, see #1.

I agree, if you're selling here it should be only to recoup a loss.

His offering was for a trade and he wanted to know what the other party was putting up as a potential trade. But hey, let's kill him for trying to be helpful.

Heh, at LCDH pricing, good luck making "a profit" on freshies.

Such being said, I personally don't give two shits what you sell or trade them for. They are your cigars, you can ask whatever value you want for them. Someone will either go for it or no one will. Probably not the best thing to outright announce that you are after a profit though.

And yeah, technically, you aren't supposed to sell here, but it happens all the time. Just don't do it out in the open.

That would've IMHO been pretty sh*tty thing to do...

NOPE....direct quote, but after Pming him he fixed the post and good on him. I just don't believe in ripping a guy a new ass just because he wasn't aware of some of the forum rules.

Sorry just got back. Yes, I was advertising for a profit and it was bc of gerbils reason in post #22. But I respect #14 For the alternate name for what I was trying. And thank those who vouched for me Shaun and gummy. Since they are hard to find I was trying to help a few BOTL get there hands on some as well as sweetening the pot for myself in return. Still a noob but not trying to offend anyone either.
