just to update. the owner has taken it upon himself to try to slander me. kind of funny how i'm the one who got ripped off and he is attacking me. shows how shady he really is.
[Reply]

So whos the culprit? Anyone in South Florida?
[Reply]

What's he doing to slander you? Classy guy that owner.
[Reply]

posting crap on his facebook account about me. trying to make it seem like he is the victim and that he only runs a legitimate business.

You should link it, or at least PM me the link.

Was there ever a decision made by the mods to post the name of the shop? :-):-):-)
[Reply]

dunno as i never heard from them.

The Opus Maduro's I have do not have dark wrappers like Anejo's have, much lighter wrapper. That was the first thing I noticed in Jay's photo's. Since one of mine was from a personal trade with Carlito (he loves 98' Trini Fundore's), I know the authenticity is correct. If the deals to good to be true, it probably is!

Oh my god...those Maduro Opus X look FANTASTIC!

Read the thread before the post. :-)

i hope that is sarcasm because they are fake :-)

I can understand not posting the name if we still were not sure if they were or were not fakes. Being that this has been looked into, they were found to be fake and the owner seems like less than a stellar guy, I think it would be beneficial to all if we knew the name of the shop. JMO

Or Rather the Name of the owner. It's one thing to sell something fake, but another to harass a customer personally.

Well, Former customer.

BTW, i guess some of his clients do not care. one of them on his FB account just stated that he bought some GOF from him and they were real so the rest of his product must be real also. ROFL. how naive can you be.

the funny part about all of this is that i found out all they did to the dealer is confiscate the product. nothing else. they are afraid of losing the revenue i guess and are okay with having themselves affiliated with a shady person. crazy they would keep risking their reputation when there are numerous other dealers in the area who could pick up his account instead.

just to update this again, he pulled it off his facebook account as i guess it was bringing too much heat. not to mention i contacted the newmans about it and gave them the link. i'm sure they didn't appreciate it.
[Reply]

You would think after sending them the link that they would see what they are dealing with and pull the account but I guess the dollars and cents part of it is far more important than trying to protect their loyal customers. Like you said they could give the account to a stand up retailer in the area and keep the revenue coming in and protect their reputation that could be tarnished if someone were to buy and smoke one of a these fubar HTF cigars and decide it tasted like rolled up dog terds and spread the word that these sticks are POS' or word spreads that they continue to let this guy sell fakes.
