Just wanted to rant briefly about people bidding higher on here than they can actually buy retail on CI's own website. Are people just lazy? Or do they just not know any better? 😞

who cares?

At the end of the day almost all of us have a bunch of cigars, that were won at a great price. Some people just choose to pay more.

The "Overbidding" crap threads are now more than a "dead horse".....they are clogging up the C&R board.

Just an observation

you are the same guy who posted the thread on "plastic wrapping" two dead horse threads now....either you really don't pay attention to the boards, are really new to this, or else your name is a clue to what you are all about....interesting

If you would have done a search for DEAD HORSE you could've answered your own question without starting the new thread...

Sorry about outbidding you on the BAD FROG DOUBLE MADURO's...HEHEHE...

1.)I pay exactly what I bid (plus shipping and handling).

2.)I've never been asked to pay a penny more than what I wanted to.

3.)I've never paid more than the catalog.

4.)I still don't have nearly enough cigars.

Does that pretty much cover everyone on this board?

Even though it is a dead horse, one can't help but comment when someone is bidding a certain amount for a 5-pack that would almost pay for a 10-pack of the same cigar if they only looked around a little bit.

"Even though it is a dead horse, one can't help but comment when someone is bidding a certain amount for a 5-pack that would almost pay for a 10-pack of the same cigar if they only looked around a little bit"

WHAT?!?!?!

Hard not to comment????WHY?? It is their money!!!!

I am starting to think that ANYBODY who complains about overbidding, can't afford the cigars they are looking at anyway....even at lower prices. It's pathetic!!!!!

We just need a perpetual overbid thread. Then anyone who feels the need to vent about it can post it there, keeping all the posts in one thread. Those who don't want to see it can choose not to click on it. 🙂

Hegemonic: an "overbid" is when someone bids more than the retail price. E.g., AF 858's in the 5-pack list are currently at $25-27 when a 5-pack can be bought from CI's website for $20

you know....i used to be mildly irritated at the veterans who, instead of either answering the question or not posting at all, would get on the newbies for not doing a search before posting "cello on or off" type crap. After all these overbidding threads, I think I now understand.

I'm for a swift deletion of any thread that discusses overbidding. Trish???????

Yea, it's gotten real bad lately. Some people just HAVE to win the lot no matter what the price. The sales here at Cbid are doing better that the reg site. They're screwing us poor folks out of some reasonable deals. I feel better losing a lot and to know somebody paid more than retail cause they did'nt shop!

"They're screwing us poor folks out of some reasonable deals."

I hope you are kidding! That is an extremely stupid thing to say.

Cigars are obviously an expensive hobby sometimes, and if someone bids high....GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. Spare us the moaning and whining about how someone stole your precious deal. If "they" didn't see the CI price.....OH WELL!!!!....THEIR MONEY!!!!!

I have recieved a RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF GREAT DEALS HERE LATELY. A BOX OF PERDOMO LEGENDS TORPEDOS FOR 43.00 F'ing dollars!!!! A STEAL!!!

Obviously, the cigars you are looking at, are wanted by other people. It's a frickin auction site. 2+2=4. Wahoo!
