FAke Cohibas....????   Bet they were rolled with TLC and no foreign items inside because that's how much these corrupt people care about consumers.

I used to work with a guy who had family in the Dominican Republic and visited there often.  He was always bringing back "Cuban cigars" and people in the office were impressed and fell all over him so that he would buy them some on his next trip. I knew something was wrong when the prices were entirely too low.  Then he gave me one to smoke and I knew right away that it wasn't legitimate. I called him out, but he balked and said I was just mad because his source was so much cheaper than mine. Then the party came to an end when another co-worker ordered a box of Cohiba Lanceros, and this is what the guy bought in the DR for him! (I don't think he was trying to scam people.  He just had NO IDEA what he was buying.)  :hitme:
