    DD would have a hard time if he was drpped into middle of the USA and asked to find a "reputable" source. At least that's been my experience so far...
    Absolutely incorrect....don't know why people in the US are stuck on a stigma of not being able to get real product....I've done my research, do yours, ask me questions and I'll give you answers. I won't give you sources but I will confirm any legitimate sources you find...its that simple. There are many many many brothers in the states who smoke nothing but and get them delivered to their doorstep....I understand there are legalities and thats a personal choice, I do not advocate breaking the law...if you decide you can live with making that choice, then stop wasting time, energy and money on unverified sources, you need nothing more but time and google...
    I'm sure as time goes on I will learn more. But, I'm not the only one to make a rookie mistake. I'll out my failed connections to anyone who asks in order to further enlighten other Newbs. I will PM you in the future before or if I pull the trigger! I appreciate your input. Thanks

    Came across this old post here. This pisses me off when someone judges by the band. Yes the band is important however cigar bands CHANGE. My bother-in-law is from Cuba. He can go back and forth all he wants. He rolled cigars in a factory for 15 years. I have seen this band on Monte # 2's. and I have seen the darker raised band which I have both of. Could somebody have put a band on the same size cigar or re-glued one on the same size cigar, YES. That's why I NEVER give Cuban cigars to anyone but 1 close friend. People never know what they are getting but I know what I've got. So why waste them.
