You rang?

[CigarGuy]

Yes. Heard of them. Really have never liked anything I smoked from them enough to buy
it again, though.
I've been on a CigarBid bender recently. You familiar with them?

CigarBid or Cuban Crafters?
Sometimes this newfangled internet is confusing to me when it comes to conversation.

Damn, they have some great prices there.

But if their stogies smoke like old rope, it's not woth the effort I guess. I still might try one of their sampler packs tho.

CigarBid, Grasshopper. CigarBid.

Okay I spent some time looking over that site but am not sure exactly how it works. Are you actually bidding on the stuff they have posted? I just want to buy some good smokes at a good price, not to engage in some e-Bay type BS.

Thanks for the tip. I just don't get the whole bidding on a retail product I guess.

Well, as you know, Cigar International is a large volume seller of decent smokes. Now, like any business they have margins to balance against cash flow and credit lines. I think when they need to move product in abundance, quickly, they throw it up on the auction site. At the end of the day, as long as they are meeting their numbers quarterly and annually, I don't think they care if you get a world class smoke for $2.00.

My guess only, of course. ;)

[CigarGuy]

..........and/or, it shows you the margins in cigars...........?
