Ok enough banter, back to the topic at hand

I broke down and spend a ton of money on cbid last week. Ended up with about 35 cigars, a herfador, and a stinky for about $145 shipped. Need to stay away for awhile now.

Tengel78,
Word of caution on that herfador. Be gentle with the latches. I had a 5-count in the blaze orange, but it didn't last very long at all. I love my old, plain black ones, and I liked the concept here - the color and rubberization. However, the way the latches are attached on/through the rubber coating doesn't allow for them to last. First latch came off after about 5 uses. I continued to use it with one for just a few more uses until that one came off, too.
The latches break right off with the sealant. Good luck - be gentle.

Thanks for the warning Dave. I'll be gentle with it.

This happened to mine too, but mine is straight up black, I just put them back on when they come off they seem to snap right into place, so idk

Saving up for a 40 ct.

I've started what may be the gentle portion of a slide... in my first week on CigarBid I bought 4 x 5 packs... Perdomo 826 Slow-Aged Churchill Maduro (the reason I signed up to begin with), Tiera Del Sol Toro Maduro, Tiera Del Sol Churchill Natural, and Bahia Blu B500 Robusto. I would have added a Perdomo 826 Slow-Aged Natural and one of the cheap-o Perdomo branded 20-30 count humis had they been available within my weekly shipping window...

I just had 35 cigars come in last Tuesday from the Cigar Satanic. Box 5 Vegas A 'Alpha' Belicosos, a 10 pk Padilla sampler and a 5 pk of Padilla 1932 Torpedos. I have another order that will ship out Thursday. I hope I can get another 40 - 50 sticks on this one.

Default Re: Cigar Bid

I got this week's C-bid order today too. I have a couple questions for those more knowledgeable than myself too. First, the JJ's have a different band than the ones I've smoked previously. I am assuming that this is an older band because of the seriously yellowed cello, but would appreciate confirmation on this theory.

And second, there is a crack on the on the cap of the Padron. Would you guys contact c-bid customer service over this issue? I am thinking it would still be pretty smokable but the wrapper seems like it would unravel a bit.
