Ya beat me to it Gunner.
I’ve said it before Tank.
It’s called the “Power Hour” cause that’s how cbid pays their monthly electric bill, which ain’t insignificant let me tell you.
Give thanks to the patrons who spend money at this weekly event.

I always look. Only a couple lots throughout have I ever considered bidding. Never quite enough to squeeze the trigger

yeah u can usually get things cheaper than the starting bids on the Power Hour auctions. Not a bad deal on that MB3 bundle though.

Sometimes they have something on there that isn't available in any other auction type, or that will be ending before my next shipment date. That is when I will consider it, and have on a few occasions.

I much prefer the FREE FALL auctions, which is where I end up buying a good chunk of my sticks from. I wish they had that type of auction back in the day when I first started buying from CB. Back in the early days of this site, I definitely ended up paying more than I would have preferred when a box or pack was up that hardly ever gets listed, there were only (1) or a handful available and the bidding was fierce.

Ditto!

If everyone bid like I do, and looks like most of you do, this place would have folded years ago! lol! Love
