Default the "restoration" of a cigar?

i was enjoying a cigar at my friends house over the weekend. the small group of 4 i was with got on the topic of dry cigars. one of the fellas spoke of a technique i found interesting and too good to be true. he said that he goes into little hole-in-the-wall tobacco stores and purposely finds the dry cigars of the humidor. he comes out to the cashier and complains about the health of the cigars he held in is hand and negotiates with the cashier. he somehow ends up getting them at a reduced price. now the next part of his claim is what im interested in. he said that he then takes them home, seals them in a ziplock bag with no air in it, leaves them in a freezer for a month, takes them out and stores them in his humidor at 70% humidify...... he called it restoring a cigar. he claimed it refreshed the cigar, bringing the moisture and fresh tastes back to it... is it fact? or Bluff?
