Very cool, there used to be a site that tracked auction close prices for all the main auction sites so you could see if you were getting a decent deal but the site stopped pulling data and died.

The FF tracker is nice to see, although the History button is pretty depressing when yo usee how much prices have increased.

I’m not sure how long I’ve sat there occasionally waiting for the damn thing to land where I saw it best 😂

I always thought freefalll was a waste of time- except for that one time I got a deal on a cigar a buddy wanted.

I’ve scored some good smokes on there. Not super often but I’ve had some good luck I check when I remember

FF is still the best option on certain cigars

Once again………..for the FF noobs….
The drop is always the same…….once you determine the drop, easy to monitor a given lot while doing other chit.

IIRC, I had a plug-in for Firefox that would show lowest prices. I scored hundreds of Pepin Blues and Blacks for about $4 per.

I want to say I also scored quite a few JDN Dark Antano Corojo El Martillo’s off FF.

Some others to that I can’t remember. Back around 2012-2014 I was buying about 200 cigars a month. At least half were from FF.

Every now and then a box of good smokes would hit FF and I’d grab them as well.

Deals like that are few and for between now.

Of course the glory days of FF are gone forever, like a lot of things.
I used to get La Antiguedad fivers for $15, 10 packs of Melanios for well under $40, Jaime Garcia Robs for…..blah blah blah…

Nothing lasts forever.

Right now one of the better deals for a solid yard gar is the MB3 sampler (4 cigars) on regular auction, when they have at least 10 lots.
Seen those go for $10.

Hmmm……………you are probably right about that.
Maybe a top shelf yard gar, or bottom shelf premium………….kind of a tweener……….imho

Nicaraguan 3000 is a decent yard gar.

No, but I have tried to go to it before, and it not load.

Maybe too much traffic?

I just tried. The page loads but there is no content.

As if CBid changed the API access or something and now the page cannot access data.
