CI "Fake" Cigars?

So, against my better judgement I went to CO to read his drivel. After reading the responses from the retailers and manufacturers I come away with one opinion. A few of them are lying through their teeth in order to protect their business model and their image as a purveyor of premium cigars.

Agree. And I think we know which ones, too.

I'm far from a CO/BG fan, and he definitely made some mistakes with this. But I have to give him some credit. He has a voice in the industry, and he's using it here for something worthwhile, something that definitely benefits consumers. I don't think any of these sellers are going to change their business practices overnight because of this. But he's managed to shine a fairly bright light on the issue, and has brought many of the major players in the industry into the discussion. I'm not sure what that's worth, but I think it's worth something.
