And this is very easy to do if you don't really know the cost of what you are bidding on. Seen this all too often.

Now when I get an e-mail from them I don't even open it, I just hit delete and tell myself it wasn't a good deal (Even though inside I know it was something I needed to have).

Smart move....I find it's kinda nice to have a house to keep my cigars in.....

Sometimes they inflate that retail price a bit to make you think you're getting a good deal. Case in point was some champagne torpedos I wanted to bid on and they were 'retailed' at about .50 more per stick than I could get them for at my B&M, plus I get my locker member discount so if some yahoo bids them up to $5.95, no deal in that.

$99.95 w/ shipping for a 250-count Treasure Dome humidor -- more like the Angel Site!
