C-bid ???

Hello folks...all of my cigar purchases have been made at B+M shops never really tried c-bid or the like ...was wondering if I should give it a try ? The prices look good for the most part but how is the quality? Should I expect any delivery problems? crushed boxes,dried product? :smiley37: and how does the c-bid process work, is it the same as e-bay with user ratings etc.

Well if you're in Canada than you won't be able to buy from the site. I think they only ship within the US. And I hope you weren't buying from your B&M all the time if you are indeed in Canada, unless you can afford it that is.

it is one seller, Cigars International. so there's no feedback or dealing with sketchy people.

i use 'sketchy' loosely.

but, yes, there are very good prices on there. give it a shot.
pace yourself.

yes I am indeed in Canada ,not to from your location...if not my b+m where do you suggest?

Not that there's anything wrong buying from your B&M. Its great to support them. I wish I had the money to do so more often. But there are cheaper ways to buying cigars in Canada :smiley2: I sent you a PM.

Cbid is great, but if they don't ship to Canada, you're hosed. I've dropped better than $400 on their site in the past 2 weeks. I'm still coming out to less than $2/stick for some cigars that would cost well over $5/each if purchased locally. My first 2 shipments were well packed and nothing was damaged, cigars arrived as though they had been properly stored. I haven't smoked any of them yet, but I can't wait for the weather to improve so I can be out smoking in the evenings.

yea ...sittin, on the porch with a big fattie...lookin, at the stars..:smiley10:
