I was killing time today at work and decided to see if any of the guys who sell cigars on yahoo are going to be switching over to ebay. Anyways I was searching on ebay and saw this.

Did I read that correctly? Did someone really pay that much for an empty box on Trinidad Maduros? If that's the case, who else wants to start selling their empty boxes online?

Not completely true, but almost. You can sell tobacco products if it is for collection purposes only. That is why they have a disclaimer on the each auction that states that you are buying this product for its collection purpose only and not for use.

Holy crap! I can't, for the life of me, figure out why in the world someone would pay that much.

 

[jmatkins]

I will start collecting boxes and selling them. haha.

I was the one that bought it. Anyone want a Trini box for $100?

That goes to show you that when women with too much money are decorating a home they lose their minds!

I have won several auctions there on cigars and always received them in a timely fasion.

Maybe I will buy a box of those cigars, then sell the box they came in and keep the cigars.

Texas is right. My favorite is when they're selling bands like this:

Four Fuente Anejo bands. And oh yeah, the cigars happen to still be in them. :rofl:
