We went thru the out of stock explanation back at the old place. Pretty easy to do with unit inventory and as someone who deals with it every day I can't believe it doesn't happen alot more than it does.
I vaguely remember that discussion, but I dunno... It rarely happens with other online retailers I've ever used. In fact, I can't remember ever buying something on eBay, Amazon, NewEgg, or cigar/tobacco retailers then getting a message saying, "uh, sorry we don't have it after all. Can we send you a lousy inferior in-house product instead?" I also remember the cbid-rage posts every couple of months back on Puff. This wasn't meant to be that 'cause I don't care enough, but it was a little annoying - the postage quibbling more than the out of stock issue.
EDIT: I should add that nowhere else are you likely to get 5-ers of Villiger Colorado and Cusano 18 maduro, a Leccia Black single, a Sosa Classic single, and a tin of CAO tobacco for $17 total, so I should shut up....

No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

Haha, yeah... Never tried any but the Sosa, but all were on my list except the tobacco (Eileen's Dream, which I'm kind of expecting to suck, but for $3 is worth a try).

Hey if the Eileen's Dream sucks, pass it on to a newbie. Taste is subjective. What you think sucks may be someone else's cup of tea.
As far as C-Bid, I haven't had any trouble myself other than sticks coming wet, but that is to be expected when ordering online. I haven't had any dry ones. That's strange.
My only complaint with them is the super slow shipping. It seems like every time I order its a week and a half or two weeks before I get it. It is the same way on Cigarmonster but their shipping is free so I don't complain. The devil site is not free, so I expect it in a reasonable amount of time. Doesn't happen though.
Once it was long enough that I complained. I believe it was ten days after my order and I emailed them. They refunded half my shipping cost which was more than they had to do I suppose. Now I just know that when I order from them, it's going to take a while. Oh well. I never buy really good sticks from them anyway. I usually just stock up on golf course/campfire sticks from them.
Check out my Youtube channel, Razorback Piper Guy if you like that sort of thing.

Absolutely. Newbs are my preferred method of recycling.
One thing I've learned about pipe tobacco is that even hideous sounding blends can turn out to be good. You never know until you try.

My husband smoked the Eileen's Dream cigars and loves them. Hopefully the pipe tobacco is just as good

Funny, I haven't tried an infused cigar I liked (including a bunch of Drew Estates) but really enjoy a few strongly aromatic pipe tobaccos. So it's possible I'll like it!

I had Nice Ash/Cigars at your Price tell me they ran out of stock twice after I ordered. The first time they offered to replace it with a comparable cigar, the second time I just had to wait.
We're going to need a bigger humidor

Wouldn't have minded waiting, but I do mind 5 Vegas Gold.
