Have you had the La Aurora bundle sticks from there? What about any of the Diesel Uncuts?

Sorry I have not had either of those. Also help a new out which site do you refer to as "Angel's Blessing"?

Laughing. I have always called it Devil's Site. If you saw my wife's face when a package arrives the words "Angel" and "Blessing" only come to mind if I am praying for mercy. "Devil" seems more appropriate for my house. (ftr-my wife is awesome, I am lucky to have her, she is a true blessing, and she is absolutely NOT watching me type this)

I've yet to have those, too, but wondered if the bundle price, usually around $20, was worth it. Not a bad price for 10 cigars, but I don't want 9 left over if they're bad.
What other Cigarbid sticks would you recommend?

I like the Cain Maduro's and it seems like I can find them really cheap on occasion. I got a RP sampler last spring to give them a shot and I liked the Edge, Decade, and Vintage 1990 so I added those to my "buy at a bargain" list. The Diesel's that I have had are fun smokes but again BAB (but at bargain). I liked the Brick House Mighty Mighty. Drew Estates Undercrown Maduro (not as inexpensive but a step up in quality imho).
As you can see I like my money to go as far as possible. I bid on 100 auctions minimum for any 1 that I win.
I of course love the higher quality brands as well. My Father and Ashton are favorites.

Hell yeah. That's exactly my bid:win ratio. Thought I was the only crazy mofo who did that.
Nice list of sticks.

I do a lot of bidding with a max amount WAY below msrp on recently added items. Surprising how often you can get lucky and pick up a fiver or a sampler for pennies on the dollar compared to msrp. Granted you are completely in the hands of fate and have no idea what you will end up with, but if you want to stretch your cigar budget and you have too much time on your hands anyway. I obviously don't just bid on everything but I bid on a lot. I don't feel I am giving away any secrets here. You all know how the game is played.
I just picked up an 8oz hc black ice humidification pie jar for $1.50 today. Those are $17 on the retail site today. I think I put the bid in for that last Thursday when it was first added. I saw the guys trying to jump the finish line (last second bid) were paying $5.00 for the same lot.
