Who else goes a little crazy bidding on smokes and ends up spending more then you thought you would lol. Not over bidding just buying more.

A better question would be who hasn't?

You can add humidors,lighters.......

I agree with bassman I bid on stuff to try and if I get it okay if not okay

Bid high

Bid often

Never lose, no matter the cost

losing is a sign of weakness.

Bidding goes better with alcohol.

i usually have my best luck at getting a bargain on gurkhas

i almost never pay msrp for those

Yeah I love the Gurkhas don't be telling everybody about their great smokes daimmmmmm

Hi my name is smokeyou and I have cbids addiction. I buy anything I want as long as I don't overbid!

I am selective with Gurkha! They are hit or miss! So far titan and extreme are NOGOS.

[sarcasm]

Stay away from Gurkhas try some black pearl morados or rojo they are decent everyday smokes


Now everyone give me shiat about this cause I know y'all will


Smoke what you like that is what it boils down to not ever body can light there smokes with 100 dollar bills

I honestly didn't care for the black pearl rojo! Really didn't take more than 4 puffs and I don't stub out cigars very often!
The Gurkha titan, theprelight was so disgusting!

Better than Gurkhas never had a black pearl unravel on me or just plain out not put out smoke but smoke what you like that is what it is about

No criticism here, just opinion.

Everbody has opinions smoke what you like if it takes you 4 puffs to figure it out sweet I tend to stick with them a little longer than that most smokes to me are slow starters but then again I a noob

I like chewing them and tasting the tobacco. Lick it before you stick it! Well I don't pulverize it but ya know what I mean!

Do what you like and smoke what you like everyone has opinions and spend what you çan afford to smoke

^this 😆

Getting back to the OP, it depends on how you bid. If you have a limited amount you can spend it could be a problem. I don't think I ever had an order over $ 300 and I don't bid every week. I would guess that when I do bid, I watch or put in as many as 200 bids and end up winning about 10 to 20. The key is to establish what your maximum bid will be and to know what the items is actually worth - and that applies to cigars as well as any other auction. Too many people get involved in the bidding frenzy and end up spending more than they wanted and some bid high enough to get some publicity on our overbid threads. When you buy more than you wanted, and do so at a good price- you win - take a few weeks off and celebrate.

Don't know how the Gurkhas got inserted into this conversation, but I never had one unravel of the 300 + I've smoked. I like some Gurkhas, but the Titan is not one of those. I seem to remember the Titan II being a little better, but neither are on my buy list and if I have any left they will go in the yard gar humidor when found. I have around 350 Gurks on hand and most of those are ones I liked.
