cigar auctioneer vs. cbid?

[joeobx]

I use both. I like CA for the lot watch feature, but I use c-bid often also. You just have to watch your bidding on both, have seen bids go higher that you can buy it for on the reg site

I personally have a suspicion that people from CI/CBID have accounts and bid up prices (those that go above their store prices.) I also notice that CBID has more traffic. My general consensus is that Auctioneer has your best overall bidding structure. Its only down fall is sometimes the auctions start a little higher than i'd like. CBID is good for those onesies/twosies that you can not find on auctioneer and if you know what price is worth the bid.

Agree with you completely. Shills are everywhere.
The only upside to auctioneer starting the price too high, is very few people bid on them and I usually win at the starting price a couple bucks more....still saving 35% over the same thing at Famous Smoke
