Would you buy them?

[medzikone]

Well, that guy lives 5 km from me. Unfortunately I was late.

 

Even for collection purpose - would you buy them? They are dry out anyway but look at that picture. Imagine the history behind these sticks.

[Mossome]

No. I don’t own a cigar that won’t someday meet a firey end. I can’t understand owning cigars simply for a collection. 

[SenorPerfecto]

The montes look fake.

[dangolf18]

You guys must have never seen old bands before. Bands look fine.

[El Presidente]

I wouldn't be spending serious $. 

Maybe as a humidified display for the home bar/cigar room. 

[Elvis]

nope.

For a few bucks, sure.

[mtd057]

no

[Connoisseur Kim]

Seems they are being stored in inappropriate storage condition (too many cracks), looks like fake in my eyes as well (there are older Monte bands on CCW). So, I'm not going to buy'em, and purchase from FOH 24:24 and FOH auction for peace ?!

[Viva Vegas]

No

[Nino]

I don't know if I'd buy them or not.

What I do know is that some posting here have NO idea of genuine vintage bands - specially with an added official Belgian/BELUX tax band ...

I am not sure if in 70s or 80s you could met as much fakes  For me they were ok.

Unfortunately, they are sold. $7 per piece...

  I would have taken a punt at that price. A bit of cigar glue to seal everything up, you never know how things will smoke.

  If they were recent regular production, it would be a pass for me; the value would be in the vintage aspect

I would have gone for them - even if only to smell the Aroma of that Habana Davidoff burning away  ...
With some luck they could have been resuscitated, depends on the damage done by dry/poor storage.

[Baccy]

May have went for that Davidoff
