Cubans on CBid?
 
Special auction just opened for Pinar P2000 Pre-Embargo Torpedo Natural - 10 Cigars

What do you other, more experienced, inmates think?

It's the biggest load of bullshit.

They sprinkled some pre-embargo dust on them.

Thanks, I thought it was a little sketchy. Thanks for the heads up :tu

Yeah, these are definitely not Cuban––every now and then you'll find sticks that are claimed to be filled with pre-embargo leaf, but chances are they're either only partially filled with the stuff and then blended with some toilet paper quality tobacco, or the more likely scenario––it's nothing more than a sham. In any case, these are not Cubans, and probably (since I've never had one of these and never will) don't even come close to the most average Cuban you can find. Real pre-embargo sticks, by the way, fetch way more than ~$4.00/stick....

Why all the skepticism guys?

It says right there in the description that the tobacco's authenticity has been confirmed by the "Brotherhood of Independent Appraisers"

And I have some beach-front property to sell ya.......... in Arizona........ :r



Besides, the last Prez made it illegal for any American to buy or sell Cuban contraband. Technically, it no longer matters if it was here already or not.

:tpd: Pinars are terrible. The glass top boxes are a nice touch however. Very fitting :r

No need to rush for these, just wait a few more years and I am sure someone else will discover yet another "forgotten about" stash of perfectly stored and aged Cuban tobacco... Hell, lately every garage seems to have one stashed away somewhere...

Kind of disappoints me. I guess I expect more from CI.

Why? Camacho has been doing this as well.

They're selling a product. So don't be disappointed by them trying to make money. The Tat's #9 they have are wonderful smokes. Be patient and if the CC's end up sucking you in, then you'll be glad you didn't waste money on crap like this.

Buy quality NC's not quantity and you'll be happy with what you got. :2
