You would think that they would get the length right yes?
John you asked where they came from, it was that Shpock site.

I'll keep an eye out for some in the Dominican Republic now I know where to sell them!

Would that be the newspaper and bicarb that Ross was recommending for scubadors?

That's the kiddie ... should work on packs too!

Has to be the new, Mr Orchant clarified the old.

Far be it from me to disagree with our sponsor expert or want upset you any further Tommy .... but sorry matey, I think both the cigars in the picture are carrying fake bands.

fake bands, fake cigars.
The only way to find out if it smokes like a dog turd is to...

Could the day get any worse? Hope you sold the Landrover mate

What makes you say that?

[tommy]

The old bands are supposed to look like that. It's a pre 2003 band.

I'm not upset about it at all, I'm actually sending them back for a refund with postage costs added. I thought they looked good in the pics but they turned out to be no good. The old CoRo have been tested prodded and smoked by many on here. They are fine.

If they smell of chemicals lighting one and especially smoking one is a very bad idea!

The distance between the words La Habana and the white Cohiba block should be less than the height of the La Habana lettering, on the band in the picture it appears to be greater. If so, the distance relationship of the black elements of that print working is wrong.

Ok chaps, I can hardly believe this but I did as advised and got rid of the boxes, the cigars themselves smelled of chemicals too but I popped them in an old cigar box and went out for three hours. When I got in I checked the progress and the smell appears to have gone! I'm leaving them in the old box for now but will introduce them to their new housemates tomorrow if no smell is discernible. I have another worry now though. The cigars are about a cm longer than my old CoRo's! Has the size of this vitola ever changed? I am now wondering if they might be a very convincing fake.[ATTACH]20247[/ATTACH]

Faker than pamela anderson tits

The other coro are real for sure, pre 2003 band and the one I had from tommy was perfect I would actually pay momoney prices for them they were that good

[ValeTudoGuy]

Well, it was worth a punt.

[tommy]

Lol it was. I got a reply saying he would take them back. Just waiting for an address. I wish you could have smelled them! Yuck!
