Has anyone ever dealt with them before? There based outta the US but still sell some cuban cigars, so Im questioning the legitimacy of the cigars. Any thoughts?

I am quite certain that no US retailer would advertise selling anything Cuban... Unless they are pre-embargo (aka expensive!!) then they must be of dubious origin...

I also do not find their prices all that great. Try Cigarplace.biz, I have heard good things about them.

No retailer in the US would sell Cubans or even fake Cubans (unless its a spoof like JR Genuine Cuban Counterfeits) because its illegal.

I didn't see any Cubans on Top Hat either, but I did see some very misleading advertising that would lead many folks to believe that they were getting Cubans. For example, they show a Cuban Cohiba band for the link to Cohibas.

But when you click through, you see that they are selling Dominicans.

A day without whiskey is like . . . just kidding, I have no idea!

There are plenty of legitimate online dealers with good reputations.

I would steer away from those who are 'sketchy'

I'll do what I will and I'll drink what I please
I'll smoke what I like 'till I cough and I wheeze
I'll drink and I'll whore and every pleasure realize
For this time tomorrow I may die
