Just became a member of the devil site. FML.

[iRace559]

I always browsed C-bid just to take a look at the deals, but I always refrained from becoming a member. Well, I finally joined tonight, made my first bid within seconds of joining and won! This is going to get really bad. Bye Bye $$

On the way is a 5-pack of RP Vintage 1992 Petite Corona Seconds. I love the RPV 1990's and have always wanted to give the 92 a try.

This slope is getting slippery.

I wonder how many people know what the FML means on your post title. But those 3 initials are exactly what everyone has probably said after joining cbid!

Also, you should change your shipping preferences to once a week. It'll safe ya some green on shipping costs! Now, don't get carried away on cbid!

Good luck in both, bidding & refraining.

Finding more ligero?

yah dude, you sniped me on those RP 2nds. They are good......BUT you MUST rest them in your humi for 3 months first!!! Seriously, you will not be liking them ROTT. Give them their required beauty rest.

[iRace559]

I should have made my shipping once a week dammit.

I have bids on 3 different lots right now. poop.

I just cant hold myself back.

Seriously, tried to warn you, but join the club. You have fallen into the pit but there is a way out. Keep climbing on top of the stuff you buy until your fingers can claw the edge! Everytime you go nuts, the pit gets deeper.

I just don't see what the big deal is with cbid. If you look around you can usually get better deals or more cigars for the same price. Mybe I was checking it out on a day when people were just going nuts with their bids. IDK but I compared bids with other sites prices and wasn't impressed. What am I missing?

It all depends from what I have seen , some deals are hit or miss and others dont seem worth a bid. Every now and then you will find something that you can't pass on.
I am lucky to have a lot of B&Ms to choose from and all of them carry a great selection, so I can easily find hard to find cigars. So it all depends what you are looking for and how much your willing to pay for it.

I was into Cbid pretty hard for almost a year. It was great to be able to pick up cheap 5 packs and try lots of different cigars. Once my humis filled up (and subsequently overflowed) I had to back off for a while though. With my humi's at capacity, I can now afford to wait for joecigar and cigarmonster daily deals on some of my favorite stogies and just grab them when they come around. I haven't gone to Cbid in almost 6 months. You can score some great deals on that site, but I think I went way overboard with it, checking it every morning, putting in rock bottom bids, hardly ever getting anything, and starting all over the next day. I just spent too much time saving a buck here and a buck there. They have some awesome private and special auctions from time to time, but for me, joe cigar and cigarmonster are pretty much all I need for my 2 cigar a week habit. Just my 2cents. Happy hunting!

Same here. I have a fairly medium sized humi (100ct+/-) thats slap full. Basically from CBid 5ers, samplers, and a few singles. Mostly ones I wanted to try and liked and got more. I havent bought anything in a month. I am saving for beads a SC for my Vino. Then, let the games begin!!!

I went pretty cbid-nuts last winter, I admit it. Now I got no money. Thing is, I had no money then, either. The difference is that now I have two large coolers and two large humidors, all overflowing with great cigars. Well, some of them aren't that great, but they're OK. I had to re-prioritize some of my discretionary/recreational spending for a few months. I guess I might theoretically regret it some day, but right now I'm not really sure what would have to happen for that.
