Why did I fade away? I dont really know 'zactly. Maybe its because after years and years of trying, experimenting, trading, collecting, spending oodles of cash etc etc...I now have a small stable of go to's that I know and trust and just buy those. I have gone from multiple humidors, coolerdors, backdors, screendors, doggydors, all diffent sizes and shapes of 'dors to one fat and happy box of said smokes (sorry c-bid, my favs are not offered here...which I smoke 75% of the time) and I dont need to bid just order, and then I order the others in my cigar harem (four or five different items), I will grab a CI special from time to time or grab some AB or super premium seconds. Its easy peasy and I dont spend like a crazed cigar sucking fool or sweat out the bid process... sorry c-bid..nothing personal
Well, unexpectedly, the other day reinforced why I used to be here all the time. I was poking around the forums for whatever reason and I decided to check out the offerings. So on a whim, I placed a bid on some yummy little smokes, 3 singles, for the paltry sum of 7 American dollars per smokey treat. In my neck of the woods these tasty morsels retail for about $15 a stick...figured I had NONE chance to score these babies. Forgot all about the bid.
Im checking my email yesterday and ....huh...what he frick and frack is this from c-bid?? Order confirmation? What the hell...clicked on the link....Ill be dammed...I won the bid...now three of those beauties are in route.
Hot damn!
Gotta love this place...
Ill be back
We've got stupid assed n00bs running amok calling cigars sticks and creating "What should I smoke" threads.
Your contributions are sorely missed here. Hell, there's a whole list of guys I wish were here more often but for whatever reasons they choose not to post. Even when they have a massive knowledge of Cigars and other "hobbies".
Oh well...Us old timers here left on CBid will leave the light on. C'mon back...the water's fine!
So what were the smokes you won?

Hi Paul: Been well, although sitting in the office on a Sunday, so not well enough, I suppose. How about you? Yeah, I figured he wouldn't want to reveal the stick he got, but I figured I'd ask. Just curious, I suppose. All good.
Good to hear things are well Jim, sorry your at the office on a Sunday though. Can't complain here I guess.
So what are those said go to smokes that you have a stable full of?
