Anyone else notice a significant price jump in the last 6 months or so? The first 2 months I was on here I spent over $200/mo on cigars and merch. But I search all the stuff that I bought previously, and now it goes considerably higher. I used to be able to get some good name 5-packs for $15 or less (H. Upmann 1844 churchill, Carlos Torano 50 year robusto, Perdomo Champagne, Rocky Patel Royal Vintage 6 x 60, CAO Brazilia Chargo). The big one was Don Pepin and friends sampler: purchased 2 (separate occasions) for $25. Can't get less than $35 now (same price as CI). Makes me feel that CI or Cbid personnel is manually upping the bids. Or just has there been that many more people that have found this site? I haven't order a single thing in almost 3 months now.

It's summertime, people who smoke outside tend to smoke more. Higher demand equals higher prices. There was a short discussion about how to maximize your summer bidding in this thread, You should check it out. You can prolly pick up a few pointers to use until about the middle of November.

abrignac is a paid intern over at CI so of course he's going to say that... in fact, he's probably one of the ones paid to go around at 8:45 every night and bid up each of the auctions to at or above the CI price...

Well DUH!! genius..........you figured that out quicker than most n00bs, gotta give you that.

In fact, La Princessa does that on her lunch break for kicks.............she looks at n00b bids, and then under her secret phony account, she ups bids and laughs about it while smoking a PAM!

I haven't order a single thing in almost 3 months now.

Losing a bid is a sigh of weakness...........I'm sure you've heard that before.

What you don't know is this:

If you go ahead and bid high on a few items, and win them at that high price, La Princessa will take note of that, and you'll earn a few points toward your Platinum Plus Membership.

Us Platinum Plus Members never have our bids artificially increased.

Nope no bargains to be had here, move along. Nothing to see here. Just keep on walking.

I bid on about 60 auctions last week. I won six, nothing to write home about but it was some of the lowest bids I've ever placed and won the items.
