    I got some spam from them last night. Looks like a quibid type model.

    Penny auction sites are a boon to whoever runs them and anyone who participates in those is an idiot. I've always thought very highly of Famous-Smoke but this is a lower-than-whale-$hit-total-slime move on their part.

    Yes, some can say "business is business" and that's all fine but who holds $hitbag operations like Amway or any other pyramid scheme in any kind of high regard? Penny auction scams are worse than pyramid schemes and it's too bad most dumbasses refuse to realize that.

    I was wondering how they got my email. If this is famous doing they have forever lost my business.

    Famous is becoming the new Thompson. Funny thing is Thompson has some really good deals on primo cigars on occasion
    The older I get ,the better I was

    You guys might not like it but you can get a 5 pack of Padron 6000 cigars, Ashton VSG cigars, humidors, for just 60 cents. You just need to hit it during a slow time. If you're willing to put a bit of money into and bid up to auction price a couple times people stop bidding against you. I have thousands of dollars of top rate cigars for, maybe, 5%, of the price. Most of the bidders on the site want to pay the 60 cents or they give up. Sniper, initally had let you bid all day. Now, because of people like me, they limit you to five auctions a day. Of course, if you upset them by dominating things they screw you. I don't think they want me to play on their site anymore. I've been dropped from auctions. They won't allow me to bid on others. They are losing a bunch money. It won't last long. just go to the site and watch it in the late afternoon or on a Friday or Saturday night. You don't have to sign up. Anyway, I'm a happy cigar smoker. THey might not like me anymore but I have a ton of primo cigars and the humidors to store them in for a steal!

    This fraud site is shutting down. I've been receiving their spam since last November and got a message this morning that they are folding up their lemonade stand.


    I guess people aren't as stupid as I first thought.
