    I spent WAY too much money on there last year so I have banned myself from bidding on anything. I was getting a shipment every week for a few months. Devil site indeed

    But in all cerealness, yes, just pick a price you want to pay, use that for a "max bid," and if you get outbid, let it go. Most of the good deals I've seen on the devil site come back within a week or two, so you usually get another crack at it.
    You oughta know not to stand by the window, somebody see you up there.

    Turn off the outbid emails and only check site once every couple of days
    It's not a real hobby unless it interferes with your work.

    I highly recommend using this site which reports historical results from CBid auctions, including marking great price, poor price, etc. I don't think it is always complete -- I bought a box recently that didn't show up. BUT it is better than going with no information at all.

    It's generally a day or 2 behind and it doesn't show free fall auctions but it's otherwise very accurate and a good gauge of how much you just overpaid
    We're going to need a bigger humidor
