Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
I use CBid all the time, but have never heard of the other place. I'll have to check it out. Anybody vouch for that place?

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
Ive used them a couple of times. The first time I ordered, the item was shown as in stock on their site but after placing my order I got an email stating that item was on backorder. Frustrating but their response time was quick. I will continue to use them.

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
I have no experience on CAYP but Cbid I like. I don't get caught up in bid wars and try to always bid on auctions "closing today." I set my shipping preference to the following day instead of weekly and have my smokes in no time. Sometimes you can score some really great deals on Cbid.

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
There used to be a website where someone had gathered prices that every lot on cbid would go off for over a period of several months and found the average price. This was useful so you knew if you were going to get a good deal or not. I don't know what it is any more though

IIRC, it wasn't really the average price over months, but rather the closing prices of the one particular day the site operator updated it. Hasn't been updated in 2-1/2 years BTW. |

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
As was stated, free fall is a very good section of that site. I normally do most of my cigar buying through that section of CBID.

Cigarmonster is good if you get the free shipping(most items are). Joecigar.com is good too.

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
CBID is definitely a Devil site as you can get caught up in buying way to much somehow.
Now Cigar At Your Price I have not ordered from yet but they have TONS of selection and surprisingly enough Very competitive pricing as compared to what you can say get a 5iver for on CBID you can get at CAYP about the same on many lots. Plus if you maybe only want 2 or 3 they have singles at just as low of prices. $7.95 shipping for your entire order or Free over 100 on CAYP... which is not bad cause CBID you end up paying no less than $4 and normally around 6-8 all depending on how much you buy (and that's if you do the weekly closing auction and not daily). The 2 sites you brought up are 100% my go to sites for sure. You can;t go wrong on either for pricing that's for sure. |

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
Be careful with CAYP. They tend to let you purchase out of stock cigars and then tell you after the fact. Kind of a PITA. Other than that, the smokes I have actually received from them are great.

Thanks for recommendations (I think?). I have made two purchases both from Famous as I sample my way through this great hobby.

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
Only to add to the confusion...soon will be CigarSniper...which was fun, but I'm afraid of how much it will cost compared to what they put up there.
If they specialize in rare items, limited runs, etcs, then I think they will do well. |

Re: The "Devil Site" Vs Cigarsatyourprice
I prefer sites like CigarMonster and JoeCigar when looking for deals. Also, more likely to try the "make an offer" deals than auction sites. I try not to buy any boxes/bundles that I wouldn't smoke normally - although I have found it hard to pass up good deals on 5ers of cigars I've been meaning to try.

I no longer do business with CI. Poor service and quality control is down. I am happy with Famous and cigarsatyourprice.

I had ordered a sampler and they sent me 3 of the Ave Marias in the long 7.5" Lancero size instead of the robusto size stated in the description. Their reply was that they were out of stock on the robusto at that moment so upgraded me to a larger size to fullfill the order. I'm not much of a fan of long smokes so they said they would send me the correct ones.... they sent me a free return label to send the other back and then send out the correct ones that were now in stock. I think some places I'm sure are hit and miss but CI is very highly rated from what I see and CBID has gone on without hitch other than this one issue that was perfectly taken care of. |
