Personally I sometimes think Cigars International has "rogue" bidders that work for the store and bid the prices of items up to a certain dollar value. If they win it's a scratched auction, but that system guarantees set prices. I also think there is the possibility of them knowing your highest max bid and bidding right to that, I'm obviously very cynical though.

I do not think this happens all the time, and it might not happen at all. I have got some deals on CBid that were 50% under Cigars International prices.
