These were acquired through a popular site that I found over at /r/cubancigars over on reddit. (Before I learned how to acquire CC's through LFTH) Thing is the barcode was removed when I recieved them in the mail the other day. Can anyone confirm for me? They are a 10ct box of HDM Grand Epicures, and a 10ct box of Cohiba Maduro 5 Genios.

Grand Edmundo looks good - Swiss vendor.

Genios is troubling. Where's the wax genios insert? The cardboard box? Why is there a white Habanos strip on the top right corner? - never seen that before.

The cardboard box was there but not pictured, the cardboard box also had the serial tax sticker and the Habanos band on the upper right corner. What do you mean by the wax genios insert? Is it the large piece of wax paper pictured under the piece of thin cedar that says Cohiba on it?

My Genios box from Prez has the Habanos sticker on the box just like in the pics. It looks legit to me

I may very well be mistaken, then.

On my computer, the box looks nice and pristine. hinges, sticker, wrapper, bands, caps, wrappers, printing, cedar insert. everything looks good to me at this moment.

Looks legit, light one up. If you've never had habanos before, not sure if that will help.

It's either a plastic/ wax paper on the inside of the box explaining what a Maduro 5 is.

Slightly larger than the storage conditions instructions.

Not pictured but the that wax paper was included, thanks everyone who commented on this thread, I'm almost certain these are legit

I'm curious to know how one would know the Grand Epicures (Edmundos?) came from a Swiss vendor.....missing barcode? No obvious marks/stickers I can see. I've seen cut barcodes come from other locations as well.

However, the Shield on these is misaligned and not folded in the middle, not that that doesn't happen on legitimate boxes - just not supposed too.

They all look okay to my lay person's eye thumbsup.gif
