First of all, exactly my point, probably rare but I'm sure it happens/happened.
Secondly, there are exceptions, buying ex-Dunhill stored cigars, someone you know (older) has been aging them for 20 years, then you stored for 20, etc (You don't have to be 60yrs old in either case). In these cases there is an established history that the cigars have been 100% stored properly.
