And those Esplendidos! Something tells me that was probably a September 04 box. I see them still in stock, at slightly less than $600. But he's selling them for the remarkable price of $1200!

What a noble brother.

I'm asuming these are fake

What are fake? You must mean that you think the sale is fake, not that the cigars are fake, right?

I think he is saying that he's guessing the vendor selling the cigars for $600 are fake.

There is an impeccable referral only vendor with 04 Esplendido for less than $600. I'm reasonable certain he's buying these and flipping them for a greater than 100% markup. That's garbage.

I'm not doubting the cigars for $600, just stating my opinion on what the other guy meant...

Let me get this straight. You guys are complaining about a guy selling cigars for a profit on a site that was made for selling of cigars because CF had an issue with it. If you don't like his prices go buy it from the vendor. Take the risk and enjoy the spoils. People buy cigars and resell them for a profit, this isn't news. Ron did Eddie piss in your cereal or something. Why do you have such an issue with him? Anyone who has been around for more then a couple months knows where to get cigars, and if you are not an asshole you can find out better vendors. It isn't rocket science. Buy low sell high. It happens in all hobbies where collecting is involved. Wine, Coins, Baseball Cards, Art and so on.

And when "brothers" are marketing up cigars 100%, we talk about it here to alert the new guys. No one is questioning anyone's right to sell cigars, but in this free marketplace, we also have the right to mention when the markup is excessive. That's what the BZ is for.
