I don't know what happened.  I got sucked in last night and COULD.NOT.STOP.BIDDING.  Damn.

So far I'm up 35 sticks and (barely, thankfully) winning bids on another 168.  I don't know if the empty humi I've got is going to cut it...:whistle:  

Oh, well...! 

 

Make that 40 for the day... 

My greatest fear in life is that when I die, my wife sells my things for what I told her I paid for them...

:-0  damn I would not even know where to put that many sticks.
You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happiness's. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.
Aldous Huxley

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace.

That's one problem us Canucks do not have, the devil site won't ship that far north.

But then, there are so many other enabling forces at work on CG that my humis are still fuller than full :biggrin:

About a year or so ago I seen a YouTube video from a guy in another country that was ordering knives from a site here in the USA and he was using a service he found where it's basically a drop send service. Your stuff gets sent to there USA address and the turn around print a new label for it and ship it out to you. I will see if I can find a link to the site for you. 

 

Edit

 

I think this was the link but like anything I would research it before using it. The cost of the extra shipping may off set any savings you may have.

Unfortunately they seem to only use FedEx and that, as far as packages going thru customs, is a show stopper. When sending across borders, ONLY use USPS / Canada Post.

If you don't mind me asking but why use only USPS/Canada Post when shipping between the two countries? Do they not monitor the mail as much in customs when using this carrier?

And last nights carnage continues.  Looks like 31 new sticks from the stuff that ended today...

 

Make that 34 :whistle:

Been a busy couple of weeks buying cigars here.  First my BnB groupon turned into a box of CAO Brazilia Box Press, then the Flatbed deal brought about 18 more.  Now 74 (so far) from a CBid binge the other night.  Someone might get an earful if Momma opens the humidor...

Hey most of us have done it. I won 6 boxes one night and filled up the humidor nicely (I thought I would lose a few oops). I was OK until the wife got the credit card bill. It didn't happen again.

That is exactly why I don't ever go on that site anymore.....

Be sure to take a picture of the final haul!  And good luck with the wife! :biggrin:

After tonight, all the auctions I bid on will be closed.  On the bright side, I only won 25 more cigars last night...
