Just won my first auction on the devil site
 
When you get a deal....YOU REALLY get a deal. Gotta hunt for quite a while but I snagged some Graycliff Profesionale Series Presidente (7.0 x 48) 5'er for $21, retail on CI = $90. Sure thats probably marked up to hell but how do you argue when I paid $4.20 a stick.

A hunting I will go. :D


EDIT
After really liking the 1666 series, I wanted to try the HIGH end Graycliffs. But the price tags are INSANE. Hopefully I can hunt down a 5'er of each (red/blue/purple/white/green) on the super cheap. Got the blue! One down, 4 to go.

And I won my 2nd, A box of Graycliff Originals robusto size for $139. That bidding thing ......some odd bastage tried to keep topping me. Spit fire last second bid FTW!

It is noted that I had been drinking....Booze + Cbid = BIG NO NO.

Buying online is great !!!! but it can get very very very expensive

Re: Just won my first auction on the devil site
 
Yeah....I've been looking forever on Cbid and found nothing. Must be all the people with "responsibilities" and "children" that were away so I could steal a few deals :r :tu.

I'm not stranger to the slope, I've only REALLY been into cigars since joining (June) before that I had less than 3 at all times. Now I've got a 300 count and a coolidor. Also 4 boxes of chocolates I ordered last month. Not to mention the rest of the cigars I have O_O. Palio cutters, Xikar Xi....high end lighters..I haven't hit rock bottom yet. Not to say that I'm not working hard at it though :r

I gotta watch it, no surprise I get VERY competitive when drinking. They lost, I won. Minus of course the actual money I spent. Lets just say if it's past 8:00pm on ANY night of the week....I'm competitive.

Nevertheless 29 HIGH end Graycliffs for $5.50 a piece? Sounds like a steal to me.

Don't count out the Double Espresso. Those are the best of the black labels, imvho. The regulars are good, the doubles just have more flavor and power to me. And I personally like the smaller size. But to each his own!

Yeah I don't like the HUGE ring gauge 52+ = no good for me.

Yeah I paid less than that.... $5.51 + shipping :tu Yeah I noticed the prices I paid WAY less than MSRP. $21 for 5 blue and $139 for 24 red, either way I think I did VERY good on these cigars. I've been waiting for a while.

Congrats Bill. That damn site has taken several paychecks from me. I started this year with around 75 cigars, now I'm up to 800 and counting. I love this place.

It's the beginning of the end! I always end up spending more per month then I had planned due to the devil. It's ok, after all who can say no to a box of La Riqueza for $92?
