I hear ya....I been trying to get decent order together this week ,and I got good start,but its hard to believe ppl are so naive to pay more than I do at local for sticks...I can't imagine spendine 8 bucks on a four dollar or less stick when you spend a cpl more an get an opus,etc..
Though since I have tried alot of new sticks thanks to alot of ppl here .I just go with a few of those.....lol

Ya, I got an order going this week too.

Started impulse bidding last week, before you know it, I had all kinds of bids, was like bah....

I think it all started when I started looking for a new driver on ebay... got the itch to bid on chit.

Oh well, good thing I started a new cooler.

Edit:

People bid me off my Melanios... f'in overbidders.

Winning bids have been a bit on the high side, but I have seen a couple of reasonable buy prices. Prices have never really dropped much since the end of last summer.

Yes I somewhat agree tony though I have never seen ,just an ecample,a de english go past 3_4 $ per 5 they just sold for 35_37 for a ,5 pack...paid ,11 for last one...same with irish hops ,30$ per fiver usually 15...

Others I noticed were graucliffs though not that drastic.maybe buck a pc....cohibas etc....Just a bad week ..hellll we all seen em good weeks bad weeks just some of pricing higher than local shop...

No big deal just idiots I assume .I just looked at different sticks I've tried lately and changed up a bit on order...so no biggie

Its been said million times but when you can buy 2_3 per stick cheaper on ci someone got more$ than cents...lol

Stop bashing Charlie, he's right on. These idiots keep driving up prices because they hate to lose. Happens to guys with small weenies and big expectations. When I bid, I keep a top bid in mind and never go over it no matter how much I want the stick. Wait until real Cubans become legal and they get a chance to bid on a Cohiba Behike.

WhT happens is noobs go to their local B&M... Ask for recommendations, and like a certain stick. They then go online to due alittle research and find the same stick well bellow MSRP which is where most B&M's price theirs.

They think they are getting a good deal, where we think we are getting screwed.

I've seen Melanio Maduro's over $10 a stick in Cigar shops.

On the Mothership they go for $110 a box.

But they are aged and stored better at B&M's <---- subjective

You're so ignorant, it is pathetic. This has NOT happened to ALL of us and how you would get such knowledge in the first place is beyond me. Second; I didn't make this thread, Charlie did. Third, I am not worried about real Cubans; I was just speculating.

And, I suspect that you hate a lot more than "noops (sic.) 🤦

So I'm ignorant for saying that it happens to all of us. Take a poll and see how many of us had our goto cigars or our regular production cigars price increase to the point where they have increased in price by a buck or 2. Gfy you silly noop.

Be patient and stick to your max bid more often than not you will eventually win what you want. Though I will agree that prices in general have been higher lately.
