Hi everyone, This is my first post, but I have read many on this forum. This might be a stupid question, but why do most people over bid for items? Do you need that particular lot that bad that you will over bid retail prices??? I would like to find out what other herfers are thinking.

pstsr you should have read more threads, theres atleast 13.5 threads about this very same question. it comes down to who the bidder is and how bad that bidder wants them added to the fact some dont reseach prices or care about thier money.....let them spend it thier own way.

I can tell you RAH0785 only bids the highest average bid to enurse his wins. That and he doesn't want to be bothered with auto-bid and sniping.

Why? I dunno, its an auction and I try to pay as little as possible for my cigars, whisky and women (that last part still costs me a bundle though).

But really, overbidding by some keeps this site going for us cheapskates, let em bid and be quiet about it or they will catch on, resuting in higher prices for us all.

Smoke what you like

Bid on what you want or need

Don't bid while enjoying an alcohol indulgence session

Enjoy the time you spend together with your smokes

Keep a tight leash on Mr. Visa

[sarcasm] Well. to give some insight, Do you really think this is an "auction site" that you can get all your cigars "cheap"? hooweee! You get to bid on cigars and so does everyone else and who ever has the highest bid, WINS! Simple concept........Some days you win, some days you don't.

I would venture to guess that you, like some of us thought at some point that ALL bids would be LESS than other online retail sites. This is a money making cash cow machine. I don't think that will change anytime soon, no matter how many of us post Overbid threads.....hopefully,one learns quickly.

Bid early, bid often. set YOUR limit and look around, you'll find what you're looking for.

I just over bid for fun...you know i don’t even smoke em...i use everything i win to start a fire so that i can burn all these stacks of $100 bills i have cluttering my house. Its really the most effective way ive found of disposing of all this dam money.............i used to flush everything down my solid gold toilet but...you know it got kinda boring.
