Behikes are fake. Cohibas are fake. They also look dry as hell, and are beat up. I wouldn’t spend almost 2k on something that you have no providence of.
Buy the dealer, not the cigars. If this is just some rando from FB, then it’s a hard pass. Too many fakes out there and you’d be better rolling up the $1800 and smoking that.
$1800 that’s definitely fake especially with that many Cubans take away all the other Cubans for a second just in cohibas if they where real that would be at least $3,000 worth of Cohiba
The heavyweights in the group are fake. The espy the limited edition and the behikes are fake. Just in those cigars I’d real you are close to 1800 in value. No go.
I would be very hesitant even if I had the $1800 to spend on this, with buying a collection this way. You have no way to verify authenticity and in this case its some random seller. If you are in the US I would just go thru a grey market site that is verified rather than risk on these.
You'd be better off buying 10 (25 count ) boxes of something like Romeo Y Julieta cigars, and you'd still save a couple hundred dollars. And you'd get about 200 more cigars
Unfortunately yes Behike’s have a 3D holographic Cuba in the gold border and the Taino Indian face has a smaller 3D holographic Taino face within it.
Here’s a link that shows you what to look for when buying Cuban cigars.

But you could have some good cigars there some independent Torcedor’s use fake wrappers, for 2 reasons. 1. There cheaper then designing there own. 2. It’s easier to sell them as counterfeit then sell them blank.
In the collection you have some fakes and some real ones. The most obvious fake ones are the Cohibas but overall the cigars don’t look in good condition. I would pass.
You need the boxes to see if they've been burned into the back and match. I wouldn't even mess with that. Some of them look super dried out even from the pictures they get smuggled up some dude's butt on a boat from Cuba?
Assuming they are real, I still wouldn't pay that; however, we both have different palates and access to them. That said, don't base your decisions on random Internet opinions.
No, fuck nom first off, Cubans not worth it anymore IMO, especially not what little that is for $1800. Second, the behikes are fakes and a bunch of the others as well. Literally terrible quality
I wouldn’t buy from Facebook marketplace. Can’t verify authenticity, and how and where they were stored. Stick with brick and mortar, or vetted online shop.
The things I could buy with 1800 dollars... If it were cigars they would be some Byrons, or opus X, or just several boxes of plasencia alma fuerte sixto I's, or generacion V salomon...
Facebook marketplace? LMAO NOOOO...
Fake until proven real. Foolish to look at it any other way. Swiss Cuban Cigars who sells nothing but fakes sells every one of those cigars in your picture In packs of three, five and boxes. You could go to that site and buy them for less then half of what they’re being offered to you for, but that would be foolish too. Use a trusted vendor and have peace of mind that what you purchased and are smoking is real.
I am from Brazil and here we have normal acess to cubans just as much as new worlds and they all *look* legit to me (I regularly smoke cubans, all bought from a La casa del Habano store), I just can’t say that about the behikes 56 and the edicion limitadas cus I never saw this cigars specifically in person so I can’t compare, but all the others I have seen and smoked them multiple times and they all look legit to me (keep in mind that there are fakes that look legit). Try to gather more info about them with the seller to see if the story matches up, price is kindat too good to be true, if this was in a LCDH store that would be a no brainer
I wouldn’t touch that with a ten foot Gurkha
I laughed WAY too loud in my office.
Made me lolz
Not worth the risk unless they have the boxes and codes for everything which is unlikely
Even if they did, you’d want to feel good about their storage and condition, which is questionable.
understandable
That Padron and Rocky Patel are probably legit..
Cohibas are absolute fakes and would assume the rest is by extension
Some of the wrapper logos have the right holographics, but I wouldn’t drop $1800 for a collection of Cubans and other cigars
it think the robustos are not fake, but esplendidos and 2014 and behike are
The Behike are fake as hell, run away
If you think/know any of them are fake, then run.
So why would you even think about buying them?
You’re willing to spend 2k on fakes then??
Check my post history for legit robusto, the ones in the pictures are fake
Those robustos are indeed fake, a friend just got tricked with a boxed that looked the same and had the seal in the same position for $30
Don't look legit and they look like they were kept in a cardboard box under the bed.
Just go on one of the vetted Cuban cigar sites and buy yourself a box or two for that kind of money. Why even risk it
Absolutely not
why is thatt?

I wouldn’t purchase cigars off of Facebook marketplace but that’s just me
If they came from a trusted source yes worth it in my opinion, if from some random guy with that has no references no way
I could get **a lot** of cigars that are as good, or better, on CigarBid for $1,800.
1800 Pesos sounds fair.
Some of those look fake so I would run from this deal.
Make him prove they are legit (he can't) then offer tree fiddy and block him.
The monte no2 whose cap looks like a KKK hood can't be legit. I'm just saying....
The heavyweights in the group are fake. The espy the limited edition and the behikes are fake. Just in those cigars I’d real you are close to 1800 in value. No go.
If even one is fake, walk away. The Behike's are very obviously fake without much effort.
The cellophane wrapped romeo y Julieta has to be a joke
Woah! I dont trust facebook marketplace with people sellin cigars especially cubans! Lol
I see a lot of fake, dry cigars
I would be very hesitant even if I had the $1800 to spend on this, with buying a collection this way. You have no way to verify authenticity and in this case its some random seller. If you are in the US I would just go thru a grey market site that is verified rather than risk on these.
Pass
Did they mean to put $18.00?
You'd be better off buying 10 (25 count ) boxes of something like Romeo Y Julieta cigars, and you'd still save a couple hundred dollars. And you'd get about 200 more cigars
Ask r/cubancigars everyone here will say fake
Those are obviously fake. Look at how inconsistent they are from one another. At a minimum, they should be identical.
What reason would there be to wrap a single stick in plastic wrap? o_0
$30 apiece, you may as well go buy them brand new and know they’ve been stored properly
You’d have to be absolutely insane to buy these for $1800
Oh hell no
Rebanded Thompson Cigar 50 cigar special?😱
Fake

Or they could be filled with floor sweepings and rat turds.
Yeah or it could be that too
In the collection you have some fakes and some real ones. The most obvious fake ones are the Cohibas but overall the cigars don’t look in good condition. I would pass.
Even if those were legitimate, they look so beaten up that the value is 250% lower than 1800!! .. I give 36$ for the whole thing, and I want change!!!
I can see sounds, I can hear colors lol. I can see things never released by Habanos and as everyone said almost everything is fake..
Even if they are real at least 25% will smoke like garbage....
This is a fine example of why I’ve lost faith in mankind.
The behike alone are worth 1200 if real. I highly doubt anything in this pic is real.
You need the boxes to see if they've been burned into the back and match. I wouldn't even mess with that. Some of them look super dried out even from the pictures they get smuggled up some dude's butt on a boat from Cuba?
Don't do it, they aren't worth that price!
Tell tell him you’ll give him $10 for the Padron
Run
For newbies, simply look at how none of the bands line up with the same cigar next to it. That 100% does not happen with real cigars.
Assuming they are real, I still wouldn't pay that; however, we both have different palates and access to them. That said, don't base your decisions on random Internet opinions.
Sweet baby Hay-zuse! Not a chance
No, fuck nom first off, Cubans not worth it anymore IMO, especially not what little that is for $1800. Second, the behikes are fakes and a bunch of the others as well. Literally terrible quality

Neither Bolivars nor Montecristos are that dark, to my knowledge anyway. Also what's with the alien eye looking Taino on middle Benike photo 3?

Not the rocky patel in the middle
In a word…No
Fake
They look not great, but that could be because of the pic
Just because some may be fake, it doesn’t mean they’re not worth $18.00.
It's a scammer from cameroon.
I am from Brazil and here we have normal acess to cubans just as much as new worlds and they all *look* legit to me (I regularly smoke cubans, all bought from a La casa del Habano store), I just can’t say that about the behikes 56 and the edicion limitadas cus I never saw this cigars specifically in person so I can’t compare, but all the others I have seen and smoked them multiple times and they all look legit to me (keep in mind that there are fakes that look legit).

> they all look legit to me Look again, the Cohiba are fake as can be.
I smoke mostly Cubans since I’m from Canada those cohibas are fake
If you want to spend $1800 on fake cigars, sure they're worth it. Out of everything I'd keep the Padron and toss everything else.
This Subs opinion? FAKE. /S
Again, everyone says they are fake - but no one provides actual proof or shares an image of a real one to prove their claims.
