CanuckSARTech Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Deja vu.... Something similar was posted about a month and a half ago (can't find the thread right now though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianbeaver Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Sometimes boxes like this are as fun to display as the real ones. Don't throw it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigcars Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Well the wrapper looks nice Why not try sampling ONE and seeing how it is. But yes it does appear to be faux/feit/knockoff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galtline Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Check my post here: http://www.friendsof...howtopic=114670 Where are you from ? I bought a box from a guy in Vegas. These are fake 100 percent... The wrapper is so thin. Give them about two months the entire cigar will crumble in your hands. I would burn the box as I did. Who knows what they put in these cigars. If you look at the labels they are counterfeit. The green on the main label is way off and the stamp on the bottom of the box is not correct. The bands are not correct either. I buy all of my cigars from Rob or in Canada depending on what I am buying. Also if you look at the cigars in the box the wrappers go from dark to light to dark to light, they are all shades of colors. I have never seen a monte box like where the wrappers are various colors. Look at the serial on the label on the box. The number doesn't even check out. You can't even enter it on the habanos checker. IF these were high end Montes there is no way they would not check out on the serial checker. 0 0000 381563 This is my Serial Number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainQuintero Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 FAKE CIGAR Real Monte vs Fake Monte Label The labels could both be real or both be fake. The only slightly off thing in that picture is the chunky stamp on the bottom of the box behind the labels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainQuintero Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 That is the fake box of Monte that I purchased in vegas, That's what I mean; the bands are sometimes identical to the real thing, sometimes the real thing are used on fakes too. http://www.cubancigarwebsite.com/band.aspx?brand=21 Your fakes have a copy or real standard band B, I've A,B and C and the variation/quality is crazy.

galtline Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Yeah I see what you mean. The proof is in the smoking and for some they have never had a cuban. The fakes I bought were the equivalent to a swisher sweet. Absolute 100 percent crapolla. Live in learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galtline Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The cigar on the right is a Monte # 4 09. Amazing batch of cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
