You mean I don't have to check "that" site every 5 minutes? I could actually do something else?

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

The home pages says:

CigarBid.com is unavailable in order to perform necessary system maintenance.

No one does system maintenance in the middle of a business day, they crashed.

Well, if the site crashed, I'd say that's necessary maintenance. :r

Yeah I'm joking around a little, I've heard of the auction site, never signed up or spent more than 5 minutes there.

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

Me neither. I hear it's the cigar smoker's equivalent of crack. Try it once, and you're hooked.

You can get some good deals. You just have to know your prices, and watch out for the morons who don't and bid stuff up over retail.

Considering I am currently seasoning a 100 ct Humidor I got on there for 15 bucks... yeah, it is kind of like crack.

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooooh... I'm actually in the market for a new desktop humi. Do I dare?

I just got off the phone with Gonz, their IT director, and he said it was some nincompoop in the bay area named Mogg who tried to force an exploit to buy up all the Cremosa Cubas at sub-listed pricing but instead just crashed the database.

The thread title reminds me of a Seinfeld episode: "Jimmy's DOWN!!"

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

lol. I'm in the market for a new desktop humi (100+ count instead of the 20 ct one).

I will admit that I did browse around a little too. But it's actually a nice safeguard that they only accept credit cards, and not payypall. I only pay cash for consumables.

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

I can honestly say that I have never - never - bit on anything on c-bid. I know there are people who curse this site, call it evil, and whatnot, but I have never seen anything there that too my monetary eyes was ever a big enough bargain to bid on.

I watch for sales and get better deals.

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

and just won my first auction. 100 capacity cu avana intenso humi. for 36 bucks. Now to order some shilala beads.

Re: Cbid is down!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice grab Pektel :tu
