That's pretty good. I wish they would show picture of the ones they are talking about. That is a bit misleading.

Nothing misleading about it ... it states:
"Image indicative of product.
See description for exact detail."
The description tells you what cigars are in the sampler.
Besides, you must realize how difficult and time consuming it would be to take pictures of every lot ... so what else do you need?

Slim, the joke is that the title of the lot is:
"Grab Bag Samplers - 7-Pack"
and the description reads:
"6 tasty smokes, including:" blah, blah, blah
thus, the inference that one of the smokes in the grab bag must be other than "tasty."

Help me here, I do not have a dictionary handy, but to me it should read not or non-indicative?
BUD??

Bud --- wasn't trying to be a jerk or anything, it's just that this has come up quite a few times over the years ... and that is what they have said about it.
BTW ... indicative (adjective): serving to indicate ---

Last thing I would have thought of you big buddy.
I learned the hard way about the pics. But when you grew up like I did, you look for illustrated information - LOL.
Later and no offense taken - BUD.

I think Bud has a point. My eyesight is not always so good but I don't think any of the cigars listed is even pictured. Not a crime but the picture does show some pretty decent cigars. Nothing of the caliber in the grab bag. While I understand that they can't take the time to put together a picture of the exact smokes they could use a more generic illustration rather than showing Montecristos, CAO Oddessy, etc.

They do tend to auction the same stuff over and over again, and it's not that much trouble to take or modify a pic that would truly be indicative.
