Legit Cigar Check?

[Nuckz23]

Is there any way to tell whether these are legit? I'm thinking about checking these out. Any help would be appreciated.

Uhhh, they're in cello and the bands are fake as hell...NOT Funny, the title says from the Dominican, but the band says Cuba. However actually yes, they are legit cigars, legit Cubans, no.

To the best of my knowledge (and that being said, I'm no CC expert) CC's have not been in cello since pre-embargo days.

I saw the same sticks in a party store near me. Took forever to make the guy understand that he baught shit. Of course, we're talking about your typical "party store owner", nasty BO and all.

'Hibas were in Cello in the 80's. The Lancero's were sold en cello for awhile and while most machinemade cigars were sold with cello, the pyramids never were. At $7.50 each it's quite a steal!

I'm pretty new to this but I looked at a lot of info on this subject when I was researching a friends cubans that the got as a tip as a caddy(they were real). As people have said, these are fakes. First thing to look at is the band. There is way too much extra at the bottom, under the "habana, cuba" part. Furthermore, most recent cuban cohiba's I've seen have had the "Cohiba" part slightly raised with a goldish metallic color, just like the real band posted by one of the previous posters.
