No, I have not tried one yet because I just received the box today. The picture I posted is the sample box VRDA on 24:24 that Rob posted. Mine are significantly darker. I prefer on the VRDA a nice golden colorado brown wrapper color.
prodigy Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 The pic I posted is the picture that Rob posted of the sample box of VRDA on the 24:24The vrda are so much better with darker wrappers. If you are not happy I'll trade or buy them off you. I'm down to a few and wanted dark wrappers so I passed. Send me a PM. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk 1

On a side note...how many folks are having draw problems with these nowadays? This is a beautiful box but some feel really hard. Hoping they’re not all pegs because that would destroy my soul (that’s right). 15
Derboesekoenig Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Ha yeah no kidding. If you don't want them, we'll take 'em off your hands lol

Just some information for you in the future. If you're not satisfied with a purchase, and have not published your feelings to the public in a non professional manner, Rob and company are very open to feedback and discussion. Next time, send a professional DM to Rob and I am sure he'd work with you. Also, I do know that @prodigy has a great collection and could definitely make you a great trade or purchase offer. You could take him up on that and then ask Rob to hunt you down a box you are looking for. I have seen some great boxes Rob has selected for people based on their request! 7

nKostyan Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 You prefer the claro ones now? Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkIt is like a first love. The first time I tried the series of Churchill in claro, before many years they were only such for sale. Therefore, I smoke more claro. But it is luck that we can smoke these beautiful cigars with different tastes.
havanaclub Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Thanks for the offer but as I said on the post "I will keep my box because they are discontinued but I am Highly Disappointed."PM would probably be a better way to deal with this. On a side note, I have received many boxes with different box codes listed. This is why Prez says "mostly" with an asterisk beside the code. Also, take a snap shot of a box of cigars with different angles, in natural light, artificial light, with flash and without. You will see many different shades of wrappers from seconds to psp. You won't always get a box with the same shade posted on 24:24. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
