I was showing my girlfriend the other day a humidor that I bid on for 17 dollars, it ended up 32 before the bid ended, looked at the bottom and the QB was 28 lol I didn't buy it but was like why????

Sometime the QB is only for some of the items - so if there are 4 available one or 2 may be available for QB. I get annoyed when the QB is paid for the whole lot and they still show the auction.

Here's a slightly different take on overbidding:

Https://www.cigarbid.com/a/oliva-master-blends-iii-torpedo-box-of-20/2830623/ 

Going as "low" as around $160.

Given that we know that when the stars are alligned just right, you face magnetic north and chant the magic phrase, you can get 20 OMB3s (albeit several sizes) for $59 w/shipping....

He probably thought he was bidding on all lots with the single bid and may not have seen the "/ea" at the end.

I'm a completely new to all this and it took me all of 10 mins to figure out. I check the two main sites to see what you would normally pay. Put what ever your looking at under "lot watch" Wait until there's an hour left on the bid, then put your bid in if it's still under priced. Then don't go back.
Why get into a pissing war over something that will come back up the next day.

Yeah, that is an about $7.5 "internet retail" cigar. They REALLY need to stop putting full box pictures out there for sales of singles. I know what it says in the small type, but the new phone-bidders that the site is designed to attract are going to miss that, which means customer service having to deal with irate people, often rescinding the bid - as it has been reported by people that they often do - and relisting. All with the attendant bad feelings. Can't be worth the trouble.

Furthermore....

Especially on the cell phone with i's big buttons and headings but small type in any text body, it is not that obvious that this is for a single cigar. The "single" in the heading could mean, to a noob, a single box. and the text description where it says ""one single cigar" is not open unless you click on it and then at the very end of the description. What you see EASILY is a pic of a box of cigars (and ONLY a box of cigars - not even a single off to the side as they often do) and the "Bid to Win" box. Cbid needs to change this.
