i guess c bid doesnt really care all that much for its bidders when it comes right down to it , a few posters asked for an explanation and we didnt hear a thing , no more bidding for me unless theres a real good deal that i cant resist of course , lol, i dont care for them being able to do anything they want at anytime

Ditto here. If cigarbid does not reply, I'm going to stop buying from either cigarbid OR cigarsinternational. I find it an insult that they wouldn't even reply to us.

Do I see the start of a good old-fashioned boycott possibly?

I missed the problem, but you can call them toll free and they are very helpful. I'm sorry I don't have the toll free number, but it is on all the receipts they send you with your orders. I just can't find any of mine. They are back east and I believe they close at 5:00 pm est. RICKAMAVEN

Did you email or call them directly, or only through this forum? This is not the vehicle to express your concerns any more than a letter to the editor is a way to request a response from your town's mayor. Call and/or email them. You will receive a response. Let us know all about it. We will thank you. In the mean time, it's ok if you boycott the next lot of mayorgas or cao aniv. That will help keep the price lower for me!

I'd be willing to stop buying for awhile. At least until we get the courtesy of an answer. I think that is the least we can expect from Cigarbid.

This is truly disappointing. It won't stop me from bidding (not yet anyhow) but I will keep my eye open for similar occurances.

I wanted to respond to Hansen's question about Lot #11443 from the last post (by the way, if you need more detail, let me know - sorry I can't get out to the forum and review every message. Just email me at [email protected] if you have a bidding issue.) The quantity on this lot never changed. It was always 1. However, a long, long time ago we also had a lot #11443 with a quantity of 4. So, when this new lot #11443 went live, the bids displayed were erroneous. In fact, the quantity available said 1, but the lot displayed a winning bidder with 1 of 4 (which makes no sense) and the bid date was from a long time ago. So, I re-created the new lot as a brand new lot leaving in any new bids. This brought the lot up-to-date. There was never any intent to deceive or change lot quantity or bid time. I hope this helps.
