    Default C-Bid the evil empire!

    /sigh

    I've been forced, sadly, to partake in the evil empire that I have resisted for the last five years. I just placed a bid on the eternal suffering of hoping my bids win. I do this for 2 reasons...

    1. I finally have a room of my own to smoke in and decorate how I wish..aka, MAN CAVE. For the last 5 years, my normal man cave has been the back porch...not anymore, at least for the next 4 years. So, I'm starting to gather the Cigar Merch for

    Lopaka's Smoke Haus

    2. Even though I have steady access to the leaf from the ISOM, they are still expensive. Plus, I do enjoy some domestics. I don't have access to domestics unless I'm in the states on TDY and I can find a cigar shop. When I'm in Virgina, I know were the OVT shop is!

    So...I have (sadly) made 4 bids and I'm prepared to lose every one of them.

    Wish me luck in the 4th layer of hell!!

    Shoot a PM to ibarney5, he'll explain the valuable c-bid strategy that he painstakingly developed. It'll all be smooth sailing from there.

    Good luck on your bids! So far I've been able to control myself, but a man can only hold out for so long.

    My original strategy was to fill up the cooler and then I'd have to stop for lack of space. I've now filled the cooler, and a large desktop humi...and I'll be buying another cooler this weekend It's inescapable!!

    We'll see how it works with me living in Germany. I wonder how long it will take to get here and the how long they are going to have to sit in the humi before I can smoke them. I'll just have to find out.

    I think I may have a bit of a problem, too. Is there a 12 step program to help me get away from that site?

    If you're having it shipped to an APO, it should be there in under 14 days. Most of the stuff I've bought (CI, JR, Atlantic Cigar, etc.) have arrived here in Iraq in as little as 6 days, while a majority of orders have been here around 10 to 12 days, with only a couple that took 14 to 18 days.

    Sweet! I'm having it ship to an APO. Now I know to start looking for my first win next week.
