In all seriousness, I just thought of something. Remember all the negative comments about burn issues with the 5 Vegas Gold maddie? Most of mine have the problem, but one size (the Brick) burns great. Trish had said something about the filler being too wet with the last shipment from the factory. My Bricks may have been an earlier batch.

Could be that they had the same problem with some of the other 5 Vegas, and your friend got a box of wet filler sticks. I’d be curious if he ends up with burn issues with new orders from CI.

Zmark, I hope you don't get banned bro, or disappear one night. Tread lightly.

SD72 was being sarcastic. If all the crap and complaining I do here doesn’t get me banned, you have nothing to worry about.

this guy will only purchase 1 brand/line of cigar from the mother site 5 Vegas Classic. he only smokes other stuff when given to him. I encouraged him to check out CBID and he did. Saved himself about $30 bones on a box of 5 Vegas classic's. cool i was happy i was able to help a BOTL out. He buys a few boxes a month of these for who knows how long, a long time.

I was interested in how they compared to a box purchased at full retail from the mother site. He said damn near EVERY SINGLE ONE had burn issues and he would not be purchasing anymore cigars from CBID. Even after resting 2+ weeks in his humi. He has given me 1 or 2 of his classics and the construction was flawless with no burn issues. I was surprised (kinda) to hear almost all of the gars from the CBID box had issues.

Anyone notice this also? I assume the gars on CBID are slow moving, stragglers from damaged shipments, etc etc, but are they not kept in a controlled environment like the rest of CI's stock? Just curious.

Could you imagine the logistics involved in pulling and keeping the thousands of lots CBid sells weekly in a different location? I can pretty much assure you that both companies pull orders from the exact same warehouse location, probably by the same pickers, and packed and shipped by the same shippers.

Either that, or all Cbid lots are kept under Sven’s desk.

It's bad.

I't's gotten to the point where I've taken the proactive measure of calling CBid immediately after a winning bid.

I tell them my cigars don't burn well, and they replace them BEFORE they ship them.

I gave the CBid url to a guy at a local event last week.

He always buys from shpos, but complained that cigars

are getting too expensive.

Hope you find these boards, JJ from Pennsville.
