Hey gang, just got my very first winning shipment from Cbid. Although I did the bidding, it was paid for as a belated x-mas present from dear ole sis.

Perdomo 2 milenario(sp) 5 pk
Bootleggers figurado 25 bx
Cossack lonsdale 25 bdl
Hecho A Mano robust larga 25 bx
Sportsmans Reserve Colada 5 pk
St. Charles Torano Robusto 5 pk
Thiriet Mercedes #5 25 bx
Thoma Hinds Vintage churchill 5 pk
Tabacalera pyramid 5pk
Ras Tafari 5 pk
Kelner Cigars & Humidor Combo 15 pk
Italian Stallion Combo: Fittipaldi Vintage Maduros & leather Case
Lone Wolf Signature Churchill 5 pk
Habano Primero 365 premier maduro 5 pk
Alhambra double corona 25 bx
Thomas Hinds Vintage selection 5 pk

Now I know that most of you are thinking these are substandard cigars that I got, but I figure I'll have plenty of time to work my way up to the big leagues later on, Cbid 4eva! Besides, you guys always mention about trying the dog rockets first so one can appreciate the finer blends. I can always pawn the bad ones off to friends, heh, heh. Life is good...

Perdomo 2, please send me all these sub-standard gars, they are just terrible.

As to the others, some not bad for everyday smoke and some you won't order again. We all go through this, but it's soooooooooooooooooooooo much fun.

Good batch. Ther Perdomo2 are tops of this batch. The Habanos and Sportsman Reserve are pretty good too. I haven't tried many of the others. Do you have adequate humidor space??

Nice haul! I have to agree on the Perdomo2. They are excellent.

Rayder1,

Made a "coolidor" from the suggestions given from you guys and gals on past forums, real good advice for cheap storage. I would like to bid or buy a nice humidor in the future for show purposes.

Perdomo's are great. The Habano Primero 365 aren't spoken of much, but I was gifted a box and to date, each one I smoked was very good. Burn great and have a nice solid white ash.
Alot to buy at once... Do you have the room for all of them? If not, I'm sure you can find some volunteers to help you "lighten the load". ;^)

Appreciate all the advice. I'm gonna let my newbie-ness show here and let you all know that the Perdomo 2, although quite luscious is definitely not a cigar to have first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Yeah, I'll say it. It knocked me on my ass for a good hour or two. I made a valiant effort to smoke down to a stub...woo!

Ever hear the phrase describing a cigar as "good for doing yardwork". I hope your a landscaper.

Hey Kai,

Perdomo 2 gives you a nice buzzzzzzzzzzzz regardless of what time of the time. I'm going to Jamaica next week and restocked my humi with these to take with me for the many Rum and ? I plan on drinking.
