Quickbuy prices are all but worthless now. Used to be near the Meier & Dutch wholesale prices. Now they are just a few bucks under the C.I. price if that.

ya there are some that are decent prices there if you want to keep buying the same old stuff like CAO Black, R.P.Vin, Aj Fernandez Habanos, Undercrown........🐴

the OTHER Cigar Auction site offers TONS of NEW & different blends. Every Perdomo line, every NEW AJ Fernandez line including Southern Draw, NEW E.P.Carrillo, NEW Cro Magnon, NEW Aging Room, Kristoff, and so on. And ALL for around $4 to $6per cigar which is the proper mark down price. CigarBid has hardly worked in any NEW options here since they started up again on August of last year. It's a stagnant web site. 😠

To actually have QuickBuy prices that put internet cigars as the same price as National brands is lousy. $4 for a 5" x 56 Diesel Torpedo!#-o 🤐 😳 That is rotten. The wholesale price is a Box for 30 for $70.00.

Perhaps you should go to that other site and stay there.

Eh..........I'm with RAH on this one.
There was a time when cbid was pretty much the undisputed king.
Since then...
The Padron debacle...
Not increasing staff when it was clearly needed...
The great software meltdown of early 2017...
The "great" website release of early 2018...
Continuing problems with listing data and bidding weirdness...
Shrinking number of decent lots for auction...

I really don't get it. The only explanation is that there's just this vast pool of noobs and cheap cigar addicts
that continue to bid on, and buy dog rockets.

Really hit home a few days ago when I searched "Tatuaje" and got 13 results -- every one of them for singles

I've been known to work the FF once in a great while, but RAH's correct --- it is NOT worth the time required for a fiver of General Cigars

Dang, everyone stop raining on my parade. I for one am glad to be back here, and even though I've been unsuccessful so far at auction, I'm having a little fun. I do have some bids on some secret "under the radar" gems that I'm hopeful for. If I'm successful, they will be cheaper then what I paid at the other places. But then again, when you have 3 overflowing coolers, it's no big deal if you don't win.

These said cigars are perfectly fine tuned to my palate (grass clippings, hay, arm pit, barn yard and mildew), so you wouldn't like them, ha, ha. Actually they are a Nic puro that open with pepper and sweet spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), finish with nuts, coffee and chocolate, and have a very pleasant underlying sweetness throughout. I took a chance on a fiver, and instantly fell in love.

^You think those are great prices? What a noob. Half of those cigars I wouldn't give you a buck for. Some of the others I have gotten for less than half that "deal". Face it RAH, you can't compete with "the master".

.....And I have no desire to compete with the master masterbater in anything! 😳 Pricing aside my point is simply that the selection here has gone to suck and you can't get any the NEWER blends here at any price because they don't offer them! Above your head I know but I can't make it any plainer.

......I like Cigarbid, DA!! Could be why I am bitching about it. The fact that a 2nd rate cigar retailer out of Florida has better offers and selection to choose from is SAD. If they offered ANY newer blends here maybe you could share some better deal postings. But at present, because of what they offer here that's not going to happen because the ONLY competitor CigarBid really has is C.I.

RAH.......cbid has more competitors than just CI.
Like I said earlier, cbid used to be king.........now slowly sinking, possibly to a point of never returning to the glory days.

Then again........I don't know chit really.
I mean we all beetching about it cause most of know cigars a bit, and want decent smokes at great prices.
Could me that THOSE glory days are truly gone forever.
For all I know, cbid may still be the number one cigar auction site in terms of gross sales.
Anyone know who number one, two three and four is out of the big 4?
That's something I've been curious about for years.
I have a guess, but it's probably wrong...

Also wonder if CI and cbid sales numbers are kept separate, or lumped together.

It depends on your viewpoint and how they are structured. They can be considered indirect competitors, but yeah, I get what you are saying. FYI, Keith and John haven't owned CI & Cbid in 10 years. They were bought out in 2007 IIRC. They opened up another company that is a competitor around 2010 iirc.
