Cigarbid.com is my drug

**nhcigarfan** · 07-13-2005, 12:44 PM

Dam - I learned about cigarbid.com last week from reading some of the posts around here. They should just change their name to www.crack-for-cigar-smokers.com. Once I started winning I just lost it. I couldn't stop. I had to change the delivery destination to my office so my wife wouldn't find out. Oh well, if you see a cloud forming over New Hampshire, relax, its just me.

Friends don't let newbies hear about cbid.

This message brought to you by.......

They should just change their name to www.crack-for-cigar-smokers.com.

LOL-

If you can't stop twitching after missing a day of bidding, you know you need help. I know that I did.

Once I started winning I just lost it. I couldn't stop.

I was to the point where I got boxes about every other day-I was a fool and didn't have them sit and be sent out together reducing shipping. But when you are addicted, all sanity and rational thinking goes out the window.

I had to change the delivery destination to my office so my wife wouldn't find out. Oh well, if you see a cloud forming over New Hampshire, relax, its just me.

Well, we have some members in that area, I'm sure you can find a couch if need be. We're here for you.

i think that's the reason why i haven't started bidding there yet. that and i don't have a humi right now to hold all the wonderful goodies.

perhaps i'll start next week.

I curse y'all for tipping me to cigarbid.com. I find myself drawn to the site 3+ times a day and have won 15+ bids since friday. Argggg...credit card smoking from use...still there is lots of room left since I sent enough to cover my cigarbid bill just today. LORD help me not to exploit the credit limit on this card. I have been good and not put anything on it that I cannot payoff the next week. I think I am an addict to cigarbid, I have more stogies than my local smoke shop, yet I still find my way to the devil's website. I must confess that I like it more than I should. I even chipped an extra 5% in the collection plate this morning, looking for strength to stop. I fear cigarbid has my soul by the ass, I do promise to stop if I cannot pay the bill within 10 days though...I ain't stupid, just hooked.

Damn that's my story too . . . almost to the letter. I managed to stay awy for a whole 2 weeks then I slipped. It wasn't my fault though . . . really . . . someone left the link on my address bar AND made a special spot for it in my favorites folder. If I log on to the internet tomorrow and it has been defaulted to my homepage I will KNOW there is a conspiracy and a larger force at work here.

I do have a nice selection of medium range smokes that I got for next to nothing though. However, all those "next-to-nothings" have added up to single digits in my check book

. . . hey I wonder how my bids are going right now . . . be right back.

I have been on cigar bid for about 3 months. There are some items that you can get great deals on, but those it seem are the unpopluar sticks. Cigar bid is alot of fun but there are web sites out there that you can get better deals on. I have spent a good amount of money on cigar bid. I admit I look at it daily, yep I got a monkey on my back!

**MMAB** · 07-15-2005, 10:06 PM

and I've noticed that there is an awful lot of dreck stuff there. It reads like JR's five-pack listing.

Yeah, there is some good stuff, but really not much REALLY good stuff. Another marketing ploy?

And what's up with Gurkha Boers? Pretty double band color combo and they're camerooooooon wrapped. Interesting. But if you do a search for them on Google the only place that comes up for them is, you guessed it, Cigar Bid and Cigar International.

A Gurkha "house brand". Oh! How tacky!

Yeah Cbid is the drug for all the cigar lovers. I just started cbid a week ago and I have won 16 auctions in a week. It's total 110 cigars and about $ 450 worth. Although I spent a lot of money on Cbid last week, I'm very satisfied with that because those 110 cigars would be worth about $800 if I bought them from other online retailers. CBID ROCKS!

**nhcigarfan** · 08-22-2005, 02:23 PM

Oooh good ol' c-bid came through today. Among the 30 perdomo's that just arrived I got my Torano Exodus 1959 Torpedo's. 5 for $15.

Some times c-bid seems like god gift to this cigarhead. Other times it's the devil.

**pierce652** · 08-22-2005, 02:38 PM

Just got another box in from CBid today and the old receptionist drops it on my desk and says "Your spending way too much money on these things young man." Keep in mind she smokes two packs a day...

And yes I DO get them delivered to the office because Im scarred of my wife.
