    blutattoo from lovely, well lovely in my opinion, Sacramento, CA. New to the forum, but not new to the hobby. This forum is great, now if I could just find a group of guys local who love the hobby as much as me we could shoot the *** over a good stick and tell lies about how awesome we were in high school. I'm glad to be here. Thanks for the welcome. Now if I can just figure out how to post pics I'd be golden.

    Welcome blu. As far as posting pics,.........I use a photobucket account. Lots of members here use photobucket. It's pretty easy.

    X2 on the Photobucket. Very simple from a phone or from phone to computer.

    I use photobucket also, for some of my more off the wall pictures. I have 1 alblum on my Facebook account that I made public, so I can just post from there if its a cigar related picture.

    Cooler, interesting. I was thinking of building a bigger humidor, but a cooler would be a heck of a lot cheaper. Plus I got a few Igloo's in the garage. Hmmm, I wonder what that old salami I left in the cooler would make my sticks taste like. Could make for an interesting experiment.

    Gift from my bud in Belize. Couldn't tell you if they were legit, since this was my one and only "habano" experience. They were tasty and free which rate very highly in my book. He sent me some Siglo 4's as well which weren't that good. I actually gave most of them away.

    For a learning experience for me, how can you tell they are fake?

    Well in this case I am not aware of any legit Cohiba packs that come in glass tubes and inside of a slide lid glass top box. So that is number 1, second the Cohiba sticker isn't quite right, hard for me to point out why it just isn't "right " and I'm not sure how else to say. The lettering isn't quite right nor is the color of yellow. Several small things, but biggest is the packaging format.
