Its only awesome until you end up with a humidor full of junk you no longer are interested in! LOL! I speak from experience. Though thats no longer a problem for me hah.
+1 on Cigarauctioneer
CigarBid is Cigars International
Cigarauctioneer is Famous Smoke, much better stuff, better prices and better shipping. Also cigarauctioneer has a smaller userbase
There is a reason that cigarbid is referred to as "the Devil's site" around here.
Many a member (including me) has sold his soul for a humidor full of crappy cigars. There are a few gems to be found but please be careful when bidding on things that you are not familiar with in the name of "trying new things". You should also do some good research and make sure you are really getting a deal or you can get caught up in the excitement of bidding and overpay. Set limits on what you are willing to pay and stick to them and never, I repeat NEVER log on after you have been drinking. It's literally like feeding Gremlins after midnight and getting them wet.
Be careful, if you win multiple small items in a lot they all get charged individual shipping costs. Anything worth buying is normally cheaper somewhere else.

It's the additional charge per item they hit you with for shipping. I paid $1 for each Caldwell notebook and got charged $1 additional shipping per notebook. Same with small cans of butane, I could have bought a large can of butane for a higher cost per ounce and saved a bunch money then buying the equivalent amount of butane in the small cans because of the upcharge on shipping.
I'm another one that has a bunch of trash from that site. Oliva, My Father, and Pepin Garcia is the only decent stuff I buy off cbid. Like others said, Cigar Auctioneer is much better and has a much larger selection of good stuff.
