Auctions

[goin' fer smoke]

I know of three cigar auctions out there:

Cigarbid
Cigarauctioneer
and JR Cigar auctions.

Anymore out there?
Any should be avoided?

I've only used Cbid and got some very nice deals, good place to pick up a humidor at a low price...if your patient

I've only used C-Bid.

While I've seen some good deals and even grabbed a few, some of the stuff is outrageous on there. If you're smart and patient there are some good deals. I'm just too impatient haha.

i've only used c-bid, and only a handful of times. I do currently have a bid on a copy of Min Ron Nee's bible.

keeping my fingers crossed:smile:

It's a great reference book.

Good luck!

Very addicting I hear.

Beware of filling humidor fast !!

 

[jrohrer]

yeah, it's a little pricey...but from what I hear it's THE book to have on habanos, and apparently CI bought the last copies that will ever be in publication

Not sure where they heard that from but it contradicts what I have heard.

 

[jrohrer]

todd...what do you mean???

 

[Wasch_24]

That this most recent edition is not the last edition...there is supposed to be an updated version, eventually.

 

[jrohrer]

ah man...WTF!!! If I knew that I wouldn;t have placed the bid I did...oh well...I'm sure it';s still one hell of a book from what I understand

Famous-Smokes also has an auction on their main site as well. About a year ago, I went bonkers on bidding and have not been there since due to the amount of bids I won and the crap that came with those winnings. :sadstare:

Another idea is to sign up for the e-mail specials on a variety of on line vendor web sites. I still find great stuff at very good prices this way. For example Holts sent and email on the carlitos samplers well before they hit the catalog. Look on the cigar website thread and sign up.

Hmm, I can think of more than one site that sells the book. I'm not sure about that information. Each edition has limited copies, but I also heard there will eventually be a newer edition.

damn Cbid, I accidentally won a boxof 20 5 Vegas Gold Torpedos for 34 dollars, and intentionally won a 5 pack of Camacho Select Robustos for 15 tonight.

good deals yes, money I needed to spend... no oh well, my coolers getting all balanced out right now, I have room...

I'm sure your right...I'm an idiot...serves me right for listening to the information published on the Cigars International website.

I guess I got too trustworthy because they are always so dead-on with their cigar descriptions and reviews:devil: ....clearly I'm kidding!:rofl:

 

[caudio51]

Be careful with that credit card. Those auctions can sneak up on you!

 

[tobby4]

I stay away.. but I was addicted to C-Bid for awhile there in the beginning
