Hi guys, I'm new in here and just wondering if you can help me confirm my assumption that this box is a fake (found it in a flee market). The furnishing on the sides seem to be sticker over the wood panels (just left and right sides) and the top might be the same. On the bottom, the stamp is not burned but painted. Sorry for the poor picture quality, but hope you guys can help. Thanks in advance.

If anyone has an empity box at any info in where to find will be great. Sadly I found a box without the lid many thanks to all of you in advance for your help Smoke well vin

Here's an interesting box. Was sent these pics from a friend @photorob who ordered a few boxes of PSD4's when they were on sale here a while back. (The 2 boxes for $318 sale) The markings on the box. "Partagas" "Hecho en Cuba" , the logo etc aren't burned in. They look like they're silk screened / printed on. Anyone else notice this on their boxes of PSD4 or other? Box code is OBM ABR 16 Serial #'s check out on Habanos site. So this isn't a "real vs fake" witch hunt. I've checked with Rob Ayala on this. He asked me to post the pics and he himself will look at the PSD4s he has in stock with the same box code, possibly from the same mastercases he put up on sale back then. Source is PCC. Now. On to the "evidence". Exhibit A: "25 Serie D No.4" - Top box is older, bottom one, recent. Exhibit B "Partagas Habana. Cuba. Top is older, bottom, recent. Exhibit C: Partagas round logo. Left is original, right is new. Exhibit D: "Habanos s.a. Hecho en Cuba" - New. Exhibit E: Inner, cedar sheet. New. Harder to tell from this shot. Thoughts? Anyone have something similar?

Hey guys, I was wondering.. What is the best period of time to drybox a cigar? Also, does the period of time depend on the size and shape of cigar? Lets assume all is equal with ambient temp and rH. I have proven to myself that at least 24 hours definitely improves the burn and taste, but I feel and get the idea that 24 hours is not enough time to complete the effect dryboxing has on a cigar. Every time, the first third is absolutely beautiful, then the cigar starts gradually get harsher through the second and 3rd thirds. Almost like an overwhelming toasted tobacco taste bordering on unpleasant. Thanks All!!
