Went hunting this weekend at some old cigar hangouts that I used to frequent back in my Navy days.... I think I bagged my limit....that box of Belicoso XXX Power Rangers at MSRP was the trophy kill....never seen one of those before.1881631.JPG

50 Power Rangers in a non-display shipping box?

Wierd. Standard box of xxx's is 42 cigars IIRC.

Legit?

Ok. Never seen packaging like that before either, just curious.

As often as Opus X's are counterfitted, just always leery of what appears to be non-standard packaging methods.

I think they ship them in boxes like that because they can't make the boxes fast enough and they like the retailers to reuse the boxes that they already have. Nice score.

They are legit.. purchased at a long term Fuente designated Opus dealer. He also had one box each of 50 Double Coronas, the torp...and one other vitola, plus other vitolas in the regular dark wood boxes...but he let me have the XXX box. Said they were used to fill the display boxes since they only sell 4 per customer around the holidays. I think he gets a price break that way.

It just moved a little!!!

Damn, it must be nice to have all that money AND a great shpo to spend it in!!!

I can get the V Maddies up here, but my little shpo doesn't carry Opuses. 😞
