    Cigars on EBay

    Up until a few weeks back I didn't know that one could buy cigars on EBay. I actually didn't believe it until I saw the auctions myself. I think it's hilarious that EBay lets sellers get away with such a transparent ruse. So who's done it?

    No. Just no. Tobacco is verboten there and auctions are for the "collectible packaging" only, which just might be all you get. Or you might get fakes, or dried out fakes, or who the hell knows...

    There are lots of places and ways to get legit stuff, and I would not gamble my way too hard earned money on an unknown quantity. Maybe the trader feedback is good, but still....

    I used to purchase any glasstop cohiba box variant that I didn't have. At one time I had a dozen different boxes. I still have a few of the better ones.

    After some of the ridiculous prices I've seen some of the HTF sticks go for on CBid I guess it shouldn't surprise me that people will buy them as "collectibles" on EBay.

    The sad part is, he isn't far off from what that is worth. I've seen another locally asking a similar price.

    I sold some OpusX A coffins on eBay. Paid $30 each and sold for over $75 each.

    The fact that Fleabay turns a blind eye to their own standing policy for the purposes of profits really disgusts me. SRS. My favorite is the guy selling the Tatuaje coffin with one each of the halloween releases for $1,000.
