I know I will take some flack for this (but who cares? since I don't trade)


If anyone "phishes" you for a trade here, beware!!

This place is just like anywhere else on the internet when it comes to bottom feeders.

Lurk for a few months, get a feel for the "good" guys!!

If (h'mm someone pops up all of a sudden) looking for "newbies" you should run and damn fast too.

Until there is a ####back ####m here, you have been warned.

I have my nomex flame suit on (and I hope some heavyweight backup??)

>This place is just like anywhere else on the internet when it comes to bottom feeders

Well, dang, I just gotta take issue with that BottomFeeder remark. Sheesh:-)

I choose a name designed to remind me not to OVERbid on Cbid, but it backfires. Sheesh:-)

Topfeeder??? Nope , that don't work... LOL

i will back you. don't need trash around here. we need to expose them and send them back from whence they came............

if you don't know the name.........just ask

if they e-mail you without posting----beware

if they have a po box----don't send

if they ask for the moon, for a rock in return---say no
(trades are based on the value of the cigar--but not the c-bid auction value--the cigar international value or a reputable company value)

Wait... I use a PO Box but thats because I live in an apartment building and my packages would get taken. Better safe in a box locker than in the mailbox outside that gets ripped open with a crowbar every now and then (no joke).

Good advice--no flack here. Thanks for the info.

Thanks too Geri for more advice. I haven't started trading (because they are really David's gars, not mine) but I have been a little leary to even try since I am still a newbie.

No flack from me either.

Brian,
Did you get burnt again or is this about the issue from last week ? Just curious.

brian, you know i got your back!!!

i'm glad that several others are speaking out and giving heads up, especially since it seems like several newbs are throwing themselves to the wolves for dinner!!!!

There is also a good trader thread as well. Before you trade you may want to read that thread. That is in addition to other research you do. Also, do an "all messages" search for the person's username and see what pops up.

Gerilynn,

I am working on it. I bought some last week and I just got notice I won another some last night.
