I don't think c-bid would do this egregiously. Here's why.
CigarBid's Mission is Trust
One of the most important objectives at CigarBid.com is to earn your trust and we have to do so with every transaction; therefore we make the following promises to all of our customers.
To our customers, we promise...
To employ the highest level of data security and privacy to protect your personal and credit card information. CigarBid’s technical platform and state-of-the-art data encryption ensure safe and secure transactions. Feel confident that your personal information remains secure and private when registering or placing bids at CigarBid. Your information is never transmitted or shared with unauthorized third parties not doing business directly with CigarBid.

To ensure that the items you have purchased are delivered to you in good condition. By utilizing UPS, and Priority Mail, we provide the most economical and feasible options to ensure perfect deliveries.
To offer quality products that you want. We will not knowingly use our platform to sell illegal, stolen or misrepresented merchandise, knock-off merchandise, pornographic material, multi-level marketing products or any other items of questionable nature.
To make sure you are satisfied, we do everything in our power to make things right. We maintain our own dedicated Customer Care Center. Our team is available to support you before, during and after the sale. Contact us toll-free at 1-800-830-4590.
To treat you with respect. We will not send you unsolicited email messages, subject you to relentless commercial pop-up or pop-under messages on our website, and we will always be courteous, polite, helpful, honest and fair.
We will not tolerate the practice of "shill bidding" (i.e. bidding for the sole purpose of driving up the price). The practice of shill bidding is illegal. At CigarBid “shill” bidders are not tolerated, their accounts will be suspended and we will report offenders to the appropriate authorities.
