Got my shipment of overbids in a couple days ago.
35 Genesis Habanos at 13/5r (overbid but had been averaging higher, so I threw in 13 for 10 lots, hoping to win one or two at that price...)
2 Boxes Tat Lanceros at 70/ea (can get cheaper buying retail elsewhere, but still a decent price)
Parked the Habanos in an ammo can with a few strips of Spanish cedar and a couple Bovedas. Tossed the can on a shelf in the basement, hopefully I'll forget about it for a year or more.
The Tats got buried in the bottom of my box humidor. Took the place of a old box of Padilla 1932's and Cain F Lancero Tubos that were each down to one or two smokes each. Tats do well with age, so along with the other tat boxes in there pushing a bit over a year, not planning on cracking em open anytime soon.
I try to play by DPN rules, but occasionally, I really want to win. Still beat retail, so can't complain even if I overbid.
tl;dr sometimes an overbid can still be a decent deal.
