  1. As mentioned before, its to offset those stupid warning stickers. It started with EL Laguito. I have a few 2017 boxes with same offset stamp.
  2. Your more than welcome to ship any cigars you cant fit, to me, while you wait for your new humidor. I have plenty of room in my walk in. I just cant promise if one or 2 wont get smoked
  3. I own a company that sells, services and installs home/commercial stand by generators. You might be alittle far of a drive for me. Good luck on your search!
  4. Yea a genuine date code will have the 3 character factory code on top of the date code. Date code is 3 character for month and last 2 digits of the year. At best, these may be a cuban cigar but not genuine diplo or robania. Me personally id be pissed and want my money back but thats your call. On this other board or where ever, did you try to see if he had people backing him or had positive reviews?
  5. Unusually dark wrappers that looked exactly like the "free custom rolled cigars" that he gave me, horrible leaves with caps that were doubled not tripled and the bands were loose. All cohiba boxes were laying down. When you picked up a cigar and stood it straight up, the band would slide to the foot. Everyone I picked up did this. He thought I didnt know cigars and told me they loosen up with age. There was a mixture of fake and real bands. The fake ones obviously not having the holograms. He had a box of 1966's with 7 cigars in it. All 7 cigars did not have the same length, loose bands and fake bands on 3 of them. They do have REAL cubans in there in the other brands, but the Cohibas are a tourist trap.
  6. YES! Thank you
  7. The LCDH in Cozumel has TONS of counterfeit cigars especially Cohiba. Every Cohiba I saw, when I went in January, was fake. They take Mexican cigars, rolled buy the guy name Jimmy who you will most likely find working there, and put genuine bands on them. Plus as mentioned prices are high. LCDH in Cozumel is a joke. According to the guy Jimmy who works there, the guy who owns the LCDH in Cozumel is the same guy who owns the one in Cancun whos name I cant remember off hand. Just be aware what may be lurking in the humidor in Cancun
  8. I would take you up on the offer but im on call that night for work. Stay with a group of people whenever you hit the town. Avoid going places by yourself. The criminals run rampant during Mardi Gras
  9. Very nice! Now the goal is to fill it and and build another
  10. Alot of reputable online suppliers ship you boxes that they shrink wrap in house with a boveda packet inside. This is to guarantee fresh cigars incase your order decides to take the "scenic route" when its on the way to you. If those were shrink wrapped glass top boxes, then id run
  11. I'll be hitting the LCDH in Cozumel in January. I'll see if they still have any left and for what cost. I know in the past ive seen counterfeit Cohibas being sold in that LCDH so i'll be checking to see if they trying to pass off some fake Edmundos.
  12. Power Lineman. I work on the high voltage lines that feeds homes and business'
  13. LOL thanks for the clarification. I think ill keep that one off my "things to eat before i die" list. Just regular chocolate pudding will do hahaha
  14. Hopefully in the near future all this crap dealing with Cuba and cuban cigars will subside. When that happens ill have the first LCDH in the US
  15. The only tubes I have sitting in my humidor is a box of Partagas Blacks(GREAT cigar). They are about 2 years old and no issues with keeping the cigars in the tubes. I do however keep the caps on loosely just to help the cigar "breathe"
  16. You need to "MAN" those fingers up. Start by taking hot pans out the oven bare handed. Take a conventional lighter and use the flame to train them.
  17. It really depends on my mood but lately Ive been picking some older stuff off my hard drive. Rainbow(Ritchie Blackmore), Triumph, Dio.
  18. Man, i dont even know exact numbers. I didnt keep track. I wanna say around $5k give or take a few bucks. Its well worth every penny though. Very easy to maintain. I thought it was gonna be like caring for a new born baby LOL Definitely an LSU fan here! That game IS gonna be a good one. Im still not a big fan of LSU's starting QB Jordan Jefferson. Even though hes from the same town as me, im not a big fan of his at all. To many stupid mistakes last year. Hopefully hes matured alot more this year. If your Tide beat us this year, its because of our QB LOL I'll be sure to hunt you down on here, come November 5th!
  19. Being that I finished it in March, this is the first time im seeing how its doing with the summer heat. The good thing is, its in the middle of my house. None of the walls are exterior walls. The attic is what dictates the temp. and humidity changes of the humidor. What I see so far is in the hotter months, the humidifier is running multiple times during the day. In the cooler months, the humidifier will run about once a day. This also depends on how many times I open the door. As of yet, no issues. Just have to keep an eye on the water since im refilling it more often.
  20. Nice, where you found it at? I cant find the bastard local to me!
  21. So far the temp isnt to bad. It will range from 72-76 degrees F. I figured if the temp. got to high for my liking, id install an extra fan in there to help out the humidifier but the humidifier seems to keeping up just fine.
  22. Thanks to everyone else for the kind comments. When I was building it my plan was not to beable to fill it up. Everytime I go in there, I want that bad boy filled from floor to ceiling LOL
  23. Hey Mr. Nick! Your more than welcome to store your cubans in there. No promise a few wont walk away here and there LOL We need to do another day of cigar smoking
