Riverstyx Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 Wow! How did you find out they were fake? And did you break the co-worker's boyfriend's nose? And face? And get your money back??? I spent $300 on some fakes in the Bahamas. Now I give them out to friends who are always asking for cigars. 2

Back story - Boyfriend of a co-worker visits Cuba every month and comes back with boxes of CC gars to pass around. I had just purchased a really nice humidor and 20 premium NC cigars so I was just getting into the hobby...why not get some CC's right? $2,400 later I find out later they are fake. I'm gutted but still have that fire to try a real CC...found a source and ordered some tubos. I'm hooked and ready to start the aging process!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro That's horrible. Don't want to start a row at work, but I hope you get reimbursed something.
dozer996 Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 Nothing has been reimbursed as of yet. Posted a pic of the boxes on a different forum and those guys helped set me straight. Now that I see what they were talking about it is glaringly obvious and the guy insists they are real...there's no way. I can't break his nose because he is in Tampa now. Live and learn I guess. MThe real Monte that I just had was great, way different taste and smoke compared to the imposters.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 1

You should post some pictures to the suspect cigar forum to help other noobs learn what to look out for so they dont make the same mistake. 2
