Blessed are the overbidders, for they keep the lights on for the rest of us.



Thanks guys!

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO OVERBID ON A GOOD CIGAR. 🐴

Why do people over bid on items that you they can buy directly from CI for a cheaper price? Ex. the fall spook spectacular sampler has 2 bids at $85.00 each, they can buy it outright from CI for $79.95. I'm sure CI loves these guys but I don't get it, maybe I'm the stupid one.](*,)

Somehow whining makes them feel good, why else would the do it? I find it repetitive and boring.

One other cute trick that some auctions allow is the "privilege" to "automatically" outbid any other bidders, thus assuring the promotors of making a profit and, in fact, encourage overbidding. 🤦

a max bid of $59. W.T.F. does this guy think he's got here?? Nothing but an average maduro smoke and nothing more.

Meanwhile you can get a Box of 12 of these fine tasting darkies for $43 right now.

Overbid by 82 bidders. Whatta deal!!! Um no not really, considering it's on sale at CI for $99.99.


Don't people look at prices? One jackass even used the QB option.

And it ain't done yet. Auction prices continue to be high and flirting with or exceeding the CI prices is becoming more common.

I had a similar "WTF" moment last night. I saw some Tattoos on here. A 5-pack. I see a lot of you guys like these, so I put a $21 bid with a max of $23. No sense going higher, since I could buy them from the mother ship for $24 for s 5-pack. I check my bids just before bedtime and and the winner's bid is now $25. As I chuckle and get ready to shut down the computer, I notice there is a free-fall going on for Tattoo's. I buy 10 of them for $32.

Yup here lately it seems FF auctions are the better deal.

I got 2 fivers of tat nobles for $17.72 on FF then saw a fiver bid up to $25 on an auction.

Also splurged last week and got some liga no. 9s for $58. No liga privada no.9 or t52 has sold for that little here yet and I have been watching.

I have yet to taste the first one. Got to see if I will like them before buying more. Seems like a lot of guys do like them though.

I bought some Jamie Garcias because there were a lot of recommendations for them. It is a great cigar, but, wow...talk about strong. Right there on my limit. I got enough to last me for a long time.

I don't know where you got your prices for CI, but I went online and they have this cigar listed for sale at $136.99. Maybe a catalog? Maybe a misprint? 😳
