Have you tried putting the serial number together with the micro printing on the seal and running it through habanos website. Im guessing they are real just not cream of the crop visually. Which is weird since they are LEs
Newbie I do not know how to do that, I’ll google a bit.

Agree on the limited edition, they should look superior.

I’m not sure what the concern here is. Those cigars look as rough and toothy as every other EL I’ve seen. I did like the guy who’s biggest concern was the Habanos sticker being folded over.

You do eigh? HAHAHAHA

I didn’t say that was my biggest concern :p
I just noted it. I am a noob for sure when it comes to CC. I have seen a ton of box pics and never saw one in such rough shape that was not old. :p

I was typing while I thought and I apologize.

Canada and "The Islands "???

that's where the fakes are made.

Your cigars look a bit rough, but nothing looks wrong.
They are a bit rugged, the box looks like hell, but not fake.
measure the length and ring ga. of several,and see if the are in the proper range for this cigat.

Thank you Nacho.
I only go to the LCDH does that impact the fakes?
I'll measure and relax and try to enjoy. I'll report back here soon.

I would not expect a faker to go to the trouble of scraping the serial ##s off a seal.

Only a real vendor would do that.

and in this case,poorly.

The cigars in question might have been ugly,but the bands looked genuine and the box, etc.

Welcome to the world of CCs, where you never get your moneys worth.........
