Yeah CelticBomber contacted me and let me know. He usually takes care of that part of the customer service. He let me know that they will throw in an extra fiver for the inconvenience.

The last time I had a backorder it was about 2-3 weeks after that I was thinking about calling. I went to my order history and saw a delivery was already scheduled.

Run to the local place and get some. Even if they showed up tomorrow you wouldn't want to smoke em in a week.

thank you, Sire.
I'm running on fumes...

Come on man… of course I have cigars to smoke. These were for the foursome.
I just think it’s bad business to auction something that you don’t have and then take money in advance for it. They had the same 10 yesterday on a quickie auction so wtf. This poor **** who “won” will be on here crying along side me:) FYI. I have sent 3 emails to them with zero response.

King,
These guys smoke little cigars like Kojak. I bought 7x70 bats so they can feel the flavor. I have bought from one of those sites and the cigars arrived so dry it’s like they were driving around with them on their dashboard for a few days. Olivia V,s I complained and heard crickets. I have gone and paid twice as much to a cigar store in a pinch but it kills me to give someone 10 bucks for a cigar I just bought here for 5. Don’t get me started about the pro shop idiots selling $15 road flares out of a glass top wooden box in a display case. It’s sacrilege. Maybe I will quit and keep the 3k I spend here each year. Loyalty must be a generational thing.

Sounds to me like you’re a golf hustler.
You want them to “feel the flavor” eh?
Ha! Feel the flavor of a 7x70 yard gar? I see one or two of them puking on the 5th fairway.

I agree…………….….but he smells like a golf hustler

After over a decade of dealing with CBID, I am convinced they never read or answer emails.

I’m not golfing with you guys. Yes, I do enjoy providing a full bodied cigar to someone who says they occasionally smoke or are trying to cut back especially a big wig and it’s sick I confess but priceless for future conversations like remember that time you took 2 puffs of that stogie I gave you and you got dizzy… you still owe me 10 bucks for tossing it…ok I am staring to see why my wife says I can be a Richard at times.

Didn’t want to leave you guys hanging. I have not heard a thing from Cigarbid nor are they answering the phones. Still no cigars.

I'm always hanging...

Figures………….to heavy to stand up eh?

In the interest of sharing information. I received an email just now from Cigar bid about my order. It says they appreciate my concern and to make me aware I was originally charged for the lot then I it was refunded after they realized they had no lot to sell. Yada yada yada we refunded your money but it will take another 5-10 business days to post. So 21 days ago you knew you didn’t have the cigars and you then refunded my money right? Yet, in total it is going to take 31 days for me to get the money back? Complete bjull**** I think the post was read by somebody who matters and they realized they better say something. I will let you know when I get the $70 back. The email ends with thank you for your patience with an exclamation point. Apparently Rocky Patel has no idea when these will be in stock. The world is coming to an end.

The liar, liar pants on fire defense!

Bonus points if you know the movie.

Good for one free "Reach Around" lesson from Z?

The "Reach Around with Thumb" is 100 points more so you're gonna hafta take part in more trivia contests.

Only if you’re ugly or can’t cry during consummation long enough for me to finish.

this won't end well...

RP are some of the daily cigars. They burn even and are good enough for yard work or a golf outing.
I used to print Cigar Aficionado magazine at Brown Printing. We would print the mag two months in advance. During that time I would stock up on the little known cheap cigars with 90+ ratings on the site. After the issue was released the price would go up and I was onto my next issue. Ahh the good old days. Brown was bought and closed by Quad graphics in 2013.
I canceled the back order with cbid. If I don’t get something for the trouble I am done with CBid. I have had a few 5 packs that showed up with mid 60’s humidity. They burn like a road flare and they are never the same after a week in the humidor. I am not going to miss that. On a last minute auction I unfortunately won Factory Smokes by Drew Estate. This is the worse cigar I have ever smoked hands down this included the Berringer tubos at Walgreens.

63-65 RH is my ideal.
