Yeah. I just saw some MB3s selling for $27 per 5 pack. It's a pretty big auction too, 25 lots. I looked at my orders, and last November I paid $12. Almost everything is like that.

Did I overbid on these? I usually see these going for much more but this unit size was a lot higher, so I got a better entry. Oliva All-Star Flight Sampler #2

Its OK Greg, all part of the growth process.
At least you didn’t buy crap. Oliva makes decent stuff, and some pretty good stuff.
That 15 cigar sampler is possibly one of the worst anyone could come up with at least for me. Never smoking a Gilberto I liked, don't care for the G's and don't like the o's as much as I once did.

Well I’m guilty as charged.
Didnt really look at what was in the sampler.
I figured a traditional mix of Oliva, O, G, MB3, some Vs, some Melanio….
Gilbertos, Gs and Os?
Meh….

My only guess is that he thinks he is getting both for $576...
Surprise surprise.
But just the MSRP for those is…………………………..stupid.
Then again, I have not tried one and they may in fact be a $20+ cigar…
is it us, or do most cultures find entertainment watching the idiots among them?
he's gonna feel some pain when his credit card payment comes due...but we've seen worse...

Thanks
My suggestion is to use the Lot Watch function. Add the stuff you are interested in, watch them, get an idea of what they're going for. Lot Watch is your friend.
the CI (Cigars International) on line or their catalog . Watch the bids and bid accordingly to save the percentage off their catalog prices. Your best bet is bidding on Free Fall auction. Just remember be patient and watch out for the lowest price and bid for it. Other auctions run for days and usually some IDIOT will out bid you. Good luck and happy bidding.

On FF, just remember the “drop” amount is always the same.
So you want to watch for the lowest start amount.
Just watch one lot for 5-10 cycles, and you’ll get the hang of it.
