Default Re: Cigar Bid

To save yourself on shipping costs, sign up for the once a week shipping. Opens up a lot more lots to bid on if you're trying to limit it to one invoice.

I still buy from cbid, but a lot less frequently than when I started smoking cigars. There are so many retailers that offer so many different specials, I often find better deals on a lot of cigars elsewhere (Holt's has some really nice e-mail specials, for anyone interested in signing up for their e-mail list).

Taki, make sure you call customer service first and confirm they still ship their humidors out of PA and that you'll be able to pick it up. I bought my end table humidor this way about 3-4 years ago and was able to pick it up, but IIRC I was told by a BOTL here (AD720 maybe?) that they no longer ship humidors from their PA location, but from Florida.

If you can pick it up in PA, make sure you open it for inspection when you're loading it off the dock. The first one they brought me was damaged and they had to grab another one from the warehouse.
