The problem is the specific Oliva cigar is not explicitly indicated for each auction; however, the detailed characteristics are indicated (i.e. profile, wrapper, etc...), which should equate to a specific Oliva cigar. This sound easy enough, but I'm not convinced CigarBid is always accurate with Oliva 2nds detailed characteristics, particularly with regard to profile (strength). Can anybody attest to the accuracy of the detailed characteristics for Oliva 2nds auctions on CigarBid? TIA
I’ve typically stayed away from 2nds. Always figured there’s a reason why they’re being offered up but also thought it strange that there would be so many that could be offered on an auction site. I mean, how good is the QC process if that many can get through?
Unless you smoke like 3+ cigars a day, I would rather spend my money on better cigars. And hey, if the auction is not specific on what you’re bidding on then I’d be even more leery about trying to get some. But, to answer your question, maybe a call or e-mail to Customer Service might be better.
