Does anyone here ever get good deals for prices that are substantially lower than just buying the same stuff on CI's website??

I mean, I'm seeing all the same items that CI sells and everything is selling for about the same price. What is the point of the bidding, to save like 1 or 2 dollars per item? Please tell me if you have gotten good deals here and how you go about doing it.

The Free Fall auctions look promising if they let the Free Fall actually go down far enough or does the company just keep protecting their huge profit margins? Any way thanks

You seem to have answered your own questions. Are you a Russian bot? You should be ashamed of your handle.

Well, I for one, am here to say I've been banned and put on time out for infractions far less disgusting than his handle.

BTW, there are 4 or 5 items now that drop to a very good price point on FF....................don't ask.........not telling.

Have to agree with FF being the place to look for deals since the new site took effect.

No, you haven't. And expect many to dislike you based on the handle. Also we don't like competitors bashing Cbid.

Note that with the FF's the "last" price often changes each cycle. You really need to watch it reset a number times to see what the lowest price is going to be and pull the trigger when it gets close to that, which may mean waiting several cycles before it gets that low again.

only great deals are when they screw up and put wrong description or picture ...otherwise (if you smoke decent cigars) it may not be worth the bidding uncertainty and shipping charges very often...however, if you want Gurkhas at 20% of MSRP, this is your place

.....Depends on what you enjoy smoking. I get "good" deals all the time although that may not last if they don't start offering some new stuff SOON!. FREE FALL prices on MOST of the better smokes are only a few % lower then C.I.'s price, if that any longer. Used to be much better. And as far as Quickbuy prices now, well, they ALL SUCK! They charge you the same for internet cigars like Ave Maria. Man O' War, or Diesel as they do La Gloria Cubana or Oliva! SAD! Message me if you want some leads. peace! Herfing

Numbers, you'll learn soon enough... don't coddle single digit posters, they won't be appreciative, and they won't come back.

You have to run them through the grinder first... especially with a dumb azz handle like this guy has.

Do cameroon's job for him....


Seeing how you are either clearly a racist... or... f that, you're clearly a racist, but you wish you were from the hood... and I'm guessing with the word fabulous, you probably double as a crossdresser.

So do you mind if we call you Queen Hood Rat?

Queen hood rat, how do you feel about barn yard animals? Also since you cross dress, does the name Victor ring a bell?

Rah will teach them all to stutter.

Yes there are some good deals here- not as good as they once were and not very often either.

Meh. I'm not offended.

What if he's a black man, who grew up in the ghetto and he's openly gay? Then the name makes sense. Black guys call each other n***er all the time. It's not offensive at all when they use it... only if whitey does.

I think the handle is awful regardless of his skin color.

It is either overly racist or attempting to glamorize one of the most exploitative "cultures" in our country

As to the op assessment of the wares here he isn't incorrect.

If these cigars are in your wheel house there are still some deals to be had here if you are patient.

I'm not offended either, but I was trying to think how cameroon would attack his name, and I think I did as well as I could in that regard.

Odd enough, I read the username wrong at first.

Ghetto Fabulous is a term....

I thought he was aiming for "Ghetto-nigh-fabulous"... as in, "almost ghetto fabulous, but not quite".

I still don't know what he's aiming for. seems like someone who wont be here long

And if he was in a wheelchair, then his handle would be CROS.

Just sayin'

......JUST ON SHAT LIKE THIS. Nothing to right home about but it's better then smoking total turds!

https://www.cigarbid.com...pler-35-cigars/2830818/ $85.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...pler-35-cigars/2830881/ $95.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...ordo-box-of-21/2831096/ $52.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...hill-box-of-20/2831156/ $50.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...toro-box-of-24/2831184/ $90.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...ordo-box-of-20/2829092/ $52.00

https://www.cigarbid.com...hill-box-of-20/2831216/ $55.000

.....I got a few wholesale catalogs from MEIER & DUTCH. If bidders here could see the mark up on internet cigars the bidding here for those types of sticks would change dramatically. Wholesale price for a BOX of 30 Diesel Torpedo's is $70.00. A BOX of 20 Montecristo by AJ Fernandez Toro is $110, New World Puro Especial Toro is $100, Bellas Artes Toro is $106, My Father Connecticut Toro Box of 23, $106, Rocky Patel Edge Habano Toro Box of 20, $65. Genesis the Project Torpedo, Box of 20 $55, Partagas Cifuentes Maduro Toro Box of 18, $55. And if you spend $200 or more you get 20% off every order. One thing C.I. and Cigar Bid have NEVER realized is that cigars in PACKS should NOT cost more. C.I. & CBid penalize you for buying a Pack of 5 by jacking up the price 10 to 20%. Other online retailers, for the most part don't. If a Box of 25 is $100 then a Pack of 5 is $20. That is why ALL the Quickbuy prices, and even most free fall prices here mostly suck! If you spend more you should SAVE more no matter when you bid on.



Their is a decent sale going on at Cigar.com. A box of 10 Oliva Serie V Maduro Double Toro for $59.99. Herfing
