My idea was to bid on like 5 lots at ridiculous low ball bids, and apparently no one else was watching. I figured I'd win one or two, but all 5? I figured it was impossible.
Later this week I'll find out if I won the LP #9's I bid on. At $6 a stick. Fingers crossed!

Now you know why we refer to it as the "devil site" around here.

More than one of us (myself included) has been in your shoes.
I resemble that remark!

Bid on four or five, hoping to win at least one, get all of them...

...uncomfortable conversation with my wife when she gets the mail.

Yeah, brother, that's a common story around here! LOL

I just wish someone had warned me...

Maybe "devil site" should be added to the vocabulary thread. I may have strategized differently. OTOH, I wouldn't be breathlessly waiting on a whole bunch of cigars, then either!

Oh, hey, just wanted to warn you, CBid is known as "The Devil's Site" around here. Might want to be careful there...

dont do it without consulting this first...

http://sloppymcnubble.com/cbid/

using SMcN I almost always get extremely good deals on cbid...

in the past when I have not used it.. I have paid too much..


For example.. I just won a box of Torano Noventa Latins there last night...
a decent yard gar/daily smoker that CI sells for about $80 a box...

I paid $43.. which is where I set my "high bid" after checking out SMcN and finding out that the best price for a box of those paid over the past year on cbid has been $37, and the worst price has been $68...

Pretty happy with the outcome..
