no ...you are not betting here...this is not a casino, though there are some wagers being placed in the "Trades section" of the forum...

you are bidding (to buy at the highest price you want to pay) for each and every individual cigar that comes packaged with nine other ones...the price you bid is for the whole pack - all 10 of them...


be careful, tho...sometimes the accompanying photo shows one cigar, with a box of the same cigar in the background...you shouldn't rely on the photo to be an exact representation of what is being sold... it's more important to read the description and know the difference between "single," "5 pack," "10 pack", "box of 10, or 20, 23, 24, 25," "bundle of 20,"...

a "single" does not mean a "single pack of 10"


you sure you're asking for reco?

The best course of action when there are multiple numbers of the same lot is to bid on them all. So say there’s 5 available 10 packs, you want to bid on all 5. The reason is you’re only gambling on paying the tax of the one lot number, and if it turns out to be a single and not a ten pack then you can tighten your onion skin belt a notch or two and email Shana about your Platinum Membership™️

The big key is bugging HIGH. Losing a bid is pathetic and we’ll all know you’re a betacuck and start calling you Victor809. No bid is ever too high.

If you bid on the 1 and get 10 then you won cause 10 is better than one. 5 is better than 1 too but 10 is still the best unless you been on 10 but just got 1 or even if you get 5 then that’s 5x better than 1 but is only half as good as 10 unless you bid on 5 then that’s 4 more than you would’ve got if ya only bid on one so bid on 10 if you want that many


Unless you want 5
