    But seriously, I stick to a pretty rigid formula for the Devil's Site. Set your max bids and walk away. That way you don't have to mess with going back and forth. If there's something I REALLY want, then I'll check in at the end of the night to see where I'm at. For example, I've been really curious about the new budget offering from My Father, La Reloba Seleccion Oscuro. So I made sure to win that auction and re-bid a couple times. Still got a 5-pack for $10, which is cheaper than the per-stick price of the boxes.

    Remember that CBid relies on stupid bidders to make up for people who are regularly buying stuff at 30-40 percent off the regular prices at Cigars International. I've seen singles of CAO Gold going for $8 or boxes of cheap fumas going for $15 over their usual price because people don't even know what fumas are...they just see a picture and bid on it. So, thank you, stupid bidders!
    Those Reloba Oscuro should be nice! I say that because the original is a very good inexpensive stick and I can just imagine it with an Oscuro wrapper. I was looking at them last night.

    That's good to hear. I've never had anything bad come out of their factory, so I'm excited.

    Agreed! I've never had a bad My Father smoke either.

    I can't remember which Reloba wrapper I had a few years ago, but it had a strong citrus taste. I'm thinking it was a Sumatra but not sure....
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    Yes, I believe that the "original" Reloba was a Sumatra wrapper and I found it a nice surprise when I first got one in the MF sampler. I'm kinda salivating to taste the Oscuro!
