Where did you buy these from?

Can't wait to see the pics.

Now that is a bummer. If it turns out they are fakes are you gonna name and shame?

Hey guys. I opened my new box of d4's to find that they are most likely counterfeits. The box looks real, but there are some problems with the smokes and some of the packaging. For instance:

-The first cedar insert has a stamp that is not perfectly centered.
-The cigars are off-colour from my genuine d4's.
-The wrappers have the right gold but the red is too red and not slightly purplish like the real ones.
-A few wrappers are not properly glued together...meaning the two ends don't meet parallel to one another.

Unless Partagas has been hit hard by the recession and is changing their product, I am pretty sure these are fakes. They taste pretty good, but I am really not enthused about proudly owning fake cigars. I really hope the other companies I buy from are legit two, cause now I am worried. I will post pictures soon, when I find my camera and learn how to post them!
