It’s simple.........so pay attention......cause I rarely give smelly noobs the time of day.

The “drop” (the amount the price drops from its starting point to the reset) is the SAME, every time, UNLESS someone clicks Buy BEFORE the reset, at which point it will reset again.
The Start price is what changes each time, which in turn, changes the reset.

The amount that a particular item drops depends on the item. Crappy cigars will drop quite a bit, better ones less.
So, note your item’s start price......let’s say $77.45
Note the reset........let’s say $51.45.
Now you know the drop will be $26.
Now all you have to watch is the start price............using the example above, if it starts at 79.66........you’re not interested.
If it starts at $71,20....... that is one you’ll want to jot down as a potential lowest start price, which will translate to the lowest reset.
You need to watch at least 10 or more to be sure you’ll find the lowest price.

I hate to say it...

Buttttt...

Ever since the bidding heydays from 2005 to 2012/13
When I would win Padrons for very cheap and drew estates
La Vieja habannas for $19-23 a box...

Then it was SAMPLERS, A FEW BOX LOTS AND THE QUICKIES FROM 2013 -2018/19...

IN 2017-18-19 WHEN THE MILLENIAL MILLIONAIRES DISCOVERED CIGARBID EVERYTHING CHANGED

NOW...2020... THE O.N.L.Y. DEALS ON THIS ENTIRE SITE
ARE IN THE "FREEFALL" AREA...
