The simple rule goes like this......If a cigar maker can sell his stix to a shpo at a good price, then he does. If he can't, then he dials up cbid style jobbers and sells them for far less, then cbid let's them fly out the door at whatever auction price the cigar commands.

Ever wonder why there are so few high quality coronas on cbid and tons of huge fat 6x60 and 5.5x58 stix on here?? That's cuz coronas sell very well at the shpo's, and the inventory of fat stix builds up until they must be auctioned off on the cheap.

Stinky - Your simple rule is very interesting. Although I know this rule is not in fact true based on factual numbers and statistics, I'd love to hear the logic behind this.

🤔 Anyone know why they don't sell them here on c-bid? Had one a week ago and it was a very good smoke.

To answer your question: we unfortunately cannot sell Partagas Black, or any Partagas for that matter, in an auction environment. Unfortunately, this is an industry-wide rule, and not applied to just CigarBid. It is a contractual agreement which we all (all retailers) must abide by.

I can tell you - as the one who builds the lot plan every week - while there are some brands you know that are no longer sold on CBID due to contractual agreements....such as Partagas Black....the selection is far from down. It has been steadily growing week over week, throughout the entire year.
