All Cigar Discussion>How big to go on name your price or MMAO

How do you deal with the name your price or make me an offer sales. I don't want to pay any more than I have to but don't want the hassle of making a low ball offer. I just want the sticks at the best price I can get with minimal correspondence.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I just do Cigarsatyourprice and start at 50% off and work my way up. I spend no more than 1 MAYBE 2 minutes to get the EXACT lowest price. I won't bother with the MMAO program, it's too annoying and virtually impossible to get THE exact lowest price. Three offers per day.....too much hassle.

The Devil and just enter the price you would be willing to pay and walk away. :-)

I hate when people bid on the devil, they bid WAY too early. About 13-20 bids before the final 5 hours, what are people thinking?!?!? It's an auction the final 15 minutes count. Anything before that...nope. Stop driving up the prices!

I've been getting the name your price option on Cigar Monster. Been putting some low ball prices just for fun but none have been accepted. It's fine because I can do without any more purchases this month but decided, what the hell lets see if this works.

I was doing that until I reach their "reserve price"

To be honest, I think MMAO is no different than its regular website.....joes daily deal gives you a better deal from the same site in my opinion and some items on MMAO it seems like they won't give you much of a savings on a lot of the items. I've seen items on Joe's go for cheaper than MMAO

Tat Artistas up on Monster. Offered $110 with a no go so anyone trying with those needs to start higher. I figured the offer was no good but thought I had nothing to lose by trying.

:-) Agreed. I check it and the Deal of the Week and both are usually pretty durn good

I haven't had any luck whatsoever with CigarBid or the MMAO.
