Not too bad for a noop - the prices/bids seem to keep going up.

Not to give away secrets, but I'd love to know how to score so cheap!...

Also, how is it I see "winners" before the lot has closed?

I see them at several other places online so not CI exclusive.
Off the top of my head I know the Dunbarton Sobremesa, CAO Flathead Vxxx series and CAO Brazilia are good full bodied and available here.

When I light up my next smoke I'll see if i see any others.

I do quite a few freefall, and watch the high/low (takes about 2 min), then strike near the next low.

For traditional auction, I do better when more lots are available. Bid early on those, set your max bid, and don't waver. You'll win a few.

Great, I'll PM Celticbomber and see if he can still hook me up...

melmets: I notice you also have some bizarre winning amounts ($) do you just key those in manually to throw off the next jump in bid?

I'll keep the flathead in mind. I have had the those other two in the past.

Still have a couple Sobremeas in the humidor. They're pretty good but I much prefer the Todos Las Dias.

No, I'm bidding on boxes and packs. Price shown is per cigar.

Also, freefall grabs the price when I hit the button.

That small place, with their free shipping, gets most of my business these days. I like being able to try 5ers of boutique brands and not have to add on other smokes just to get the best ROI on shipping.

Yeah, the shipping does mount up. I'm down to a few CBID buys a year and each one is very time consuming and adds up to a hefty total. When I see a good deal on something I want at the small place, its easy to just buy those good ones and it doesn't break the bank.
