Default Are these fake??

I bought some cigars today but I am fairly sure they might be fakes. The experts Please stand up

Boobs are proof that a man can concentrate on two things at once.

They're legit. They weren't spelled Cohibo, so you're good to go.

I definitely would t worry since the market rate on the 2003 DC is much closer to $60/stick. You got them at a great price.

They were produced in 02/03 but they can still be found.

Go to www.cubancigarwebsite.com and look at the Cohiba page and see if the measurements match. Secondly, are these from a trusted source?

Oh, nudity may be allowed, but boobs are always appreciated

A little warning for those viewing from work would have been useful.

It is extremely difficult to determine authenticity from pictures or by price. As Albert said, check the exact measurements on the site referenced.

From the pictures there is nothing that screams "fake"

I agree Bob, nothing in the OP's pictures look fake. I thought maybe the wrapper seemed too dark but not compared to the picture at CCW

The price would make me think twice but I guess you just need to smoke them and find out
