2) Fool -

Buys the two Macs in Jamacia for $999.99 each *or somewhere else and adds that tidbit in an attempt to add some creditability to his story* and sells them.

That is why a polite but informative email regarding authenticity might elicit a response indicating whether it's 1) or 2)

Just a morbid curiosity on my part.

I apologize if you were taken on the initial purchase but I would hate to see a second person ripped off.


The Macanudo brand is a legit brand but a Non-Cuban brand. As you can see in the link I provided they can be had for as little as $126 for an entire box of 25.
