I heard some guy named Jones just won 60 cigars for like $16!
I heard DP Newell once won a box of WOAMs for $43.

Nah there's plenty of asshats here to ensure that will never happen, way back when I've heard stories of decent yard gar bundles going for $3-4.

I've gotten some ok stuff for a $1 per, usually it doesn't happen. Just got a box of Devils for $46. Patience is key, I've been bidding on them with a max of $49 for a long time and always get outbid. Dave woulda won the box for $34.

Got a fiver of maduro Puro authentico coronas for $11, that equals out to a $22 box of 10 and I don't think I've ever seen them that low, maybe once before. I think it was kotc that won some at $7 per fiver here recently don't quote me though!

Not me, best I ever did was $22 for a box (10).
$7 for a fiver is Newellesque for sure!

Here's one for the ages ... a 5-pack of Flor de Las Antillas Toro is $34.50 MSRP, $32.75 at the mothership. Some dude is in for TWO at $40 each:

Not the first time I've seen these sell for some stupid money. Nice cigar, but I'm pretty sure they're not that hard to come by.

someone is paying at least 13 bucks each for a 601! WTF is wrong with people?

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot/2325690/601-serie-box-press-maduro-prominente-single/ 

Incidentally, I hope everyone of them have signed a (the?) petition to help prevent the FDA from ruining the cigar industry.
