    I am glad that cbid is not available to Canada. Even without it I have 3 or 4 cigar shipments in the mail right now.

    Yeah, I've done real well by c-bid, you just have to do your research and bid smart. If you see it once, you will probably see it again. Just don't get to excited.

    And CC is right about the Pardon's and fuente's, you can get anything made by them for less else where. However, you can get Graycliff or Perdomo silvio's below MSRP.

    The latest idiot fest I witnessed was when 6 different morons paid 60 bucks each for 1 Anejo shark.

    Yeah, I've been very careful not to pay more for something than I could get it elsewhere. I have been finding that I can sneak 5-packs of some of my favorite cigars for as much as half what JRs or CI want for them. As for accessories, I've also found some bargains. And for boxes of my favorite every day cigar, the 5 Vegas Double Corona, I only have to pay about $1.12 a cigar, which makes me so damn happy! A box for $28.00; yeah, 5 Vegas suck, don't anyone buy them .

    I'd just like the chance to get burned there, just the once.
    I thought it was a tampon joke!

    CBid is great, as long as you're pretty familiar with what things cost. You also have to be careful to pay attention to what your bidding on. They love small print there. CBid is NOT good for trying to get Opus or Aņejo, or anything that is remotely hard to find. People go crazy when those lots are put up, and they usually get sold for WAY too much.

    Btw, I just scored a box of Casa Toraņos on there for about half of retail
    Have you ever thought about maybe turning off the TV, sitting down with your kids...and hitting them?

    Yeap Cbid can be a great deal. I've bought a few 5 packs from them. No boxes yet because I don't have the room for them. I allways check the big online retailer's prices to see what kind of deal I would be getting. I think people just get caught up in the whole auction thing and wind up paying too much.

    Thanks for the advice on checking retail sites, that's a great idea.
