Who is FE of Los Angeles? Every time I look or bid on a box of cigars it seems this guy has a bid going. I just counted and he has no less than 30 winning bids presently in the boxes section alone! You can't tell me that he is just restocking his humidor. You can't resell cigars that you won here, can you? I know it's probably none of my business and excuse me for whinning but
HEY SAVE SOME FOR THE REST OF US POOR SLOBS!!

PLEASE DISREGARD THIS POSTING IF IT IS ONE OF THE REGULAR CONTRIBUTORS ON THIS FORUM ! THANK YOU!!!

I don't think there is any legal reason why you couldn't buy cigars on this site and resell them.

State tax laws might be a problem.

Cbid has a few retailers here on a regular basis. It just shows you how good the deals are.

You are not the first person to get mad at them.

Better believe these hawks are here. It's a no brainer that Cbid has the best deals on the net. Especially, if you are a little patient; losing bids one day often turn into winning bids with a little patience.

I'm going with the conspiracy theory explanation. These people are actually employed by CI. They monitor auctions and bid zccordingly to avoid any big losses. These people are kept in cubicles outside Des Moines, Iowa for this sole purpose. They go by names like RICKAMAVEN, Slimboli, and Magnafide. Trust no one.

I've often wondered how those RyJ 125th anniversary boxes jump to $135 8 minutes after the auction opens.

Thx eze, you've explained it very well. And oh yeah, I think I've been probed.

Ahhhhhh.....I've seen the ****! He has run the price up on many an item. FE if you are reading, when I see your initials, I'm going to price gouge you! Especially if there are not many other victims....1 or 2 units available. Guys, I only bid on items I'm interested in, but this SOB has given me way too many headaches. MUHAHAHA!

i usually only bid on crap that no one wants. i just like to win auctions.

i have found some cigars not mentioned in the "dog rocket" category that are excellent for the cost, and not too bad as smokes. at 8 or so cigars a day, the luck at finding cigars for less than a buck (some were 30 cents each)lets me indulge my joy of smoking. right now at 4:00 am, i don't need a monte A, a hemmingway masterpiece, a monte #5, an onyx mini bellasco, an isom r&j en cedro from an isom, see i do know something about good cigars, i'm just a multfaceted smoker.

i have divulged to only one person as a gesture of kindness to him, information about my "secrets". i'll bet when you guys find something special, you blab all over the boards and then get upset when you are overbid. like they used to say "does gimbles tell macys?" my lips are sealed.
