CigarBid.com and crazy shipping

[hoshnasi]

I bought a super cheap bundle of Free Cuba cigars (hand-outs for firneds). Today I got an email saying that delivery is going to take 7 days?! through DHL. Has anyone recieved a shipment from "Cigars International"? How do they package? I'm worried I'm going to have dust when I finally get the package.

I think they're giving you the worst case time frame. I've rec'd c-bid packages via DHL with 2-3 days of being sent, even though my tracking number indicated it wasn't going to be delivered until a few days after I rec'd it. And the bundles are usually shrink wrapped and packed well enough that the cigars arrive in fine shape.

I am sure your firneds will like those. :laugh:

Anyway to address your questions . . .

Yes it can take a while with standard shipping depending on where you are in the country. However, I have found that the cigars I receive are a bit "wet" when I get them even though there is no humi device. My guess is that they purposely store them at the higher end of the spectrum because they know they will be shipped. They are packaged well and you should have no problems.
