Just run everything threw a spell checker.
I would bid. I don't believe everything I read on the internet. There are ways to contribute cigars and other things to the troops.
I say bid - It's an auction. If no one bids against him. It's not an auction any more.
The bid is half the fun. Other wise just buy it on CI.

I would only have one question, how much would the shipping to Iraq be?
Don't string us along intro thread would be nice.
I've been posting off and on since 2006, and I just now get harassed about an intro thread?
I suppose I should clarify what I was doing. I was cruising cigarbid, hoping to snipe a few good deals just before they closed. This was a 5 pack that the winning bid was a dollar. I'm all about free enterprise, blah blah blah.... but if there's a Marine (or a solider) out there who is wanting to buy his own cigars and it looks like he's going to get a good deal, I just didn't want to be the one jacking up the price. Yes the guy could somehow be scamming and truly is sitting in San Diego relaxing, but since these weren't sticks I went out of my way to find I wasn't to concerned about it. I'm not saying that no one should bid against someone in the military, I have decided that I won't in most situations. Was curious what others would do.
With all due respect for your sentiments, this is a pretty silly question. There is no such rule of "etiquette." There's only somebody who owns the cigars trying to run a business on the other end. We all support the troops but I think most of us also believe in free enterprise.
Bottom line is, bid. If you happen to win and the guilt becomes overwhelming, then send them to the troops.
