I dunno about your neck of the woods but afaik, pay phones cost at least $0.50 so Lee might need another donator.

They pulled them out once all the drug dealers that used them went to prison.

A typical Cbid experience for me. I never learn.

I just wanted to grab some Asylum torpedos (the little short torpedos) at a decent price, maybe a few MBIIIs to try. Then I realized that I'm very low on Cain F lanceros, so I picked up a box of those to have waiting in the wings. Then I saw a Kristoff sampler for a good price, then I saw some Illusione San Andres rothschilds - I smoked another one of those the other day and remembered how much I liked them. Some Tats at a price I couldn't refuse (and also wanted to try the Series P thing), some Caldwells, then, then, ...

So, it turned into a sprawling order that was WAY bigger than my initial intention. Wound up winning a lot of singles here and there, one or two of this or that. AND, here's the kicker, didn't win any Asylum torpedos. d'oh!

What's the over/under that they get all 36 items, with all these singles, correct first time?

Over/under???
What are we betting on?
You need to clarify your gambling terminology.

You did make a “messy” order…………good luck.
My guess is it will be perfect.
They have really improved their shipping time lately, and all my orders have been perfect, but that of course, is to be expected.

^ Clarification: over/under of how many items will they mess up? The total order is for 36 separate things.

To make it even messier, there were a couple of items where I won a single, then won a couple more singles of the same cigar in a different auction.

But I'm with you King. I've had a good run with my orders from them, even when things got complicated, so my bet (hope) is that they get it all perfect the first time.

I’ve been trying to call them for 3 days with an issue and nobody ever answers. Yesterday a recording just said “we’re closed”.

My messy order of 41 items shipped yesterday and is supposed to be here tomorrow. It includes a lot of singles and there was no items on backorder. Backorders seem to be more prevalent with 5rs or larger quantities.I'm guessing yours will be complete and shipped tomorrow. I lost a bunch or bids on singles and now I know who did it.

Gotta admit though, Wombie smoking a Lancero would look a bit disproportionate.

True. Though many of us aren't svelte enough to make a 40 gauge look balanced

See?


It's all those other idiots and attention whores with their "I didn't get mine" making up stories to besmirch what we know is true.

You put in your bid...you win your bid...they send cigars AFTER your card clears...you get cigars. Plain and simple.

All the b!tching and moaning and post creating and the incessant whining...step on their necks and be proud...WE SUPPORT THIS COMPANY AND THEY DO RIGHT BY US*!




* maybe..just maybe...perhaps...I might've got a few things for free for this post. The Gulfstream 5 rides back and forth didn't count as Platinum Membership covered that. Trish KNOWS what I mean!

Actually it was the King's doing. He's got the Royal Platinum membership and I asked him to send the gals some cupcakes to get my order right. He must have mentioned you too.

I have an idea….
Maybe………..since you’ve been here 3 years or so………..you could have written, or texted, or called?
But nooooo………….. instead you wonder out loud about your Gurkhas and Fumas.
You might get them for Christmas…………I’ll ask CelticBomber to have a look, since you are too lazy to contact him yourself.
