Has anyone else noticed that CB has stopped putting the sizes in the auction listings? I think it's a mistake, because newbies will be repeatedly disappointed by surprises. I think that usually the surprise will be that, because of the picture, a 5x50 can now be confused for a 6x60, and a 6x48 might look like a Churchill. Is it a deal-breaker? Not yet, but it's clearly a move in the wrong direction.
CB, you're my favorite auction, and I'd like for you to stay #1 so you can keep buying low and keep getting us incredible deals. But, consider this. The customers that seem to buy cigars by the amount of tobacco per dollar, rather than by flavor and experience will find things more difficult. Alternatively, some of us prefer the smaller cigars because of the wrap/binder/fill ratio difference. A temporary boost in accidental sales is not worth sacrificing your position of trust and goodwill with so many customers. The best move here is to put the sizes back and reconsider the scope of authority of the person who made what can fairly easily be understood as an error in judgement.

On February 3rd this year cigarbid performed maintenance on the site which caused a number of problems, including this one, as well as searches and sorts not working properly. I'm still waiting on my order that was confirmed on the 10th. I've contacted them and was assured they are working on the issues, but it seems they've really hosed the site.

Behind the scenes at CI "What did this guy order?"

"Um a $2 cutter and some cigars but we can't see what cigars he ordered"

"Aww **** it, he's only getting a $2 cutter."

Cost them more to ship than the cutter was worth!

Look guys, I actually thought it funny at first, but I gotta admit my patience is wearing thin.

I actually, FINALLY got through on the friggin' telephone and guess what? THEY CAN'T TELL ME A DAMNED THING. Hours spent calling/waiting and "we're trying to work through it the best we can". I get it, the computerized auto order filler thingy is friggin' hosed, but hell, print the damned order out, put the cigars in a box and load it in the truck. We're not talking about going to the damned moon here! FFS 😠

My order was 7 cigars short, today I got a box w/ 2 of the cigars in it. They're probably going to send my 5 pack one at a time. I just hope they don't burn me on shipping charges.

Glad the sizes are back, they are critical to me when I order. The cigar brands are listed in alphabetical order, that's good. Sorts and searches still not working correctly.

why are their ONLY 77 5-packs in the middle of the week????????????? WTF!!! No wonder every $2 cigar now goes for $3. Cheap bastards!! I'll go to F.S.S. Auction if I have to pay $3 plus for every cigar! Least they have a newer selection.
