I have a feeling there is a real bubble in the market. In a few years some of these deep cellars will start coming on the market; someone will probably make a pretty penny hunting them out and breaking them down for sale but I imagine they'll glut the market sort of what happened with low grade silver age comics in the late 90s and early 2000s.

I found out something with a few sales this week.
Supposedly everything sold goes priority mail, and my first two went that way in small priority boxes, I downloaded the labels put them in a box and shipped them off.
The third sale lagged on getting me the tag to “generate label”, I contacted them, and they sent the label in an email attachment, slapped it on the box and decided to hand it off at the post office. The alert clerk told me that since it had a first class label, they could not accept it in the priority box.
Went back home and was worried that I had not caught that on the previous boxes that I had shipped, but them were priority… whew!
Repackaged and reprinted the label and dropped it off.
Contacted Tinbids and they told me that packages to domestic winners goes priority. Shipments under 16oz internationally go first class to a company that takes care of the export paperwork and forwarding.
They thanked me for letting them know and going forward they will update their communication to give people a heads up.
Tobaccos that I paid $80 for yielded $450 before they get their cut.
Mine was all aged tobaccos, not flipping current releases, not doing that.

You may very well right.

I tried to sign up just now, but apparently Arkansas is on their list of “no ship” states, even though every other tobacco site can ship here…

I've had good luck selling on tinbids to pay for some unexpected bills. Buying on the other hand I think I've gotten outbid on everything but one auction I've tried to bid on but that more of a size of my discretionary funds issue vs a tinbids problem.

I would send them an email and ask them what the deal is. I might do that, I saw some good stuff on there
