I am new to the site. I am trying to figure out the auction. For example Lot # 4643725. It is for a pack of 10 cigars. It says QTY max of 2; bid per unit. Currently $2.

Now is that $2 per cigar (meaning I'd pay $20 for all 10) or would I pay $2 for all 10 cigars?

I just want to make sure before I accidentally spend unintended amounts of money.

Welcome!

As to your question - $2 for all 10.

Good luck!

Thanks! I'm sure as time ticks on they don't sit at that. We'll see what I get my hands on.

They WILL NOT set your max bid and let others bids. Good luck.ram27bat

Usually goes up pretty steeply in the last day (and last minutes) of the lot. Definitely use the max bid function and keep in mind the cost of shipping!

Another thing to note, it’s very likely that the lot you’re bidding on won’t be the last one ever offered. The same thing will pop up again (…and again and again and again…) so remember that as you set your Max bid.

Last note, check the MSRP on other sites before setting a max bid. Odds are those Gurkhas aren’t worth 1,000 dollars for a box 😂

watch out for grumpy old men running bid bots, if you out bid them at the last second they come on here and have a conniption fit...
