Just bought a Bunch of Stuff ($170.00)on the Devils own. Make me feel better!

[ZCigarGuy]

I just did it again. Said max I'm going to spend is $100.00 then the OSOK came up and my favorite Cigar is the OSOK Travieso Pyramid. Oh and I love Avo's and My Father's and like the Drew Estates alot. Now I'm at $170.00 and kicking myself but this is such a tasty collection. What do all you think? Make me feel better, tell me I got my money's worth!

Edgar Hoil OSOK Desmadroso (Salomon) (7.0"x52) Box of 10
Note: If this is as good as the Travieso then this is a great deal. They retail around $117.00 for 10 and sell at around $105
Your Winning Bid: $44.00

Note: the Undercrown Gorditos are very good cigars and they generally go at $5.00 or more a piece on the Devils own so it was like I ended up getting the Acid Blondies for free.

Not to put a damper on your parade but this is just the beginnings....I've got sticks that cost that for 10. and bunch of guys have 5 sticks that cost that....this "hobby" is expensive so get reddy for the ride...i remember thinking a $13 stick was a lot....not any more!....good purchase tho!

Well, you could have easily paid that for one box of 20 good smokes, so if they're all ones you want, and you'll smoke them, and you got them for as low as you're likely to, then I'd call it a win for you.
They're not the ones I'd be going for, so it's hard for me to say.
The problem is when people overbid or bid over what they could have bought them straight out on famous, atlanticcigar.com, cigar king, or even one of the other CI sites......
I've seen people bid over msrp, and over well over what they could have gotten them for on cigar.com..

enjoy the ride! next, you'll be needing more storage.

One of my worst Cbid splurges...

But I got great prices on them and enjoyed them. Still am actually..

I searched out discounted prices on all and would have spent around $300.00 if bought at discount prices. not such a bad deal.

you saved 30 % over retail in some states, more in others.
don't buy boxes for a while, your palate will change...…

go and buy your first Tupperware now, and get it bigger than you think you will ever need.
Boveda 65% packs (3) and a good hydrometer (digital ).

you will thank me.

Good advice there from Nacho.

And keep your infused and noninfused stored separately. Trust me....

As for the OP, you definitely got some good deals there - in my years of buying and smoking cigars I've learned that prices on cbid tend to operate in cycles, where they're low for a while, then high for a while, before coming back down again, and so on, etc - so with prices where they are right now, you should probably keep checking to see what else is selling for pennies on the MSRP dollar before prices start trending up again
