Hey guys. Here is the back story; I wrote this on a different website, stating that the store I bought my cigars from are fake.
"I have been ordering Cuban cigars online for about 4 years now. I’m ready for another order however after doing some research on grey market cigars and how some online stores scratch off the codes off the boxes and warranty seal, I got a little skeptical. Thankfully I keep all the boxes I've ever ordered and started to investigate them. May 2013 I ordered 10 boxes online from the same place. Thankfully they did not scratch off the tiny codes off the warranty seal so I was able to search them online.
1st box Partagas Serie D No. 4, the codes checked out
2nd box, Diplomaticos No. 2, the codes do not match. In fact the codes come up with a different cigar
I am in the process of looking up the other 8 boxes to see if they match. Since May 2013 I have ordered 16 more boxes (however all the serials on those boxes were scratched off) so I cannot verify them to see if they are real.
I am to believe if 1 box is not authentic then they are all not authentic. "
