Other than space and the general maker why does the information on the band or bands that come on a cigar rarely match the type of cigar or is not complete?

Example:

If I go to the local and buy a Padron 4000, why doesn't the band say Padron 4000? It just says Padron.

I believe with Padron, all the blends are the same on their X000 series cigars. The 2000, 3000...etc the difference is the size. Their anniv series of course is very different blend, and of course different band with more info.

Is that right guys?

Don't get me started with the Fuente and ther damnned bands that need a decoder ring....

One reason I dont buy them

lsfire - I'm sure using the same band keeps costs down significantly, considering the countless numbers of bands they produce. Also, I'm confident that the band is the easiest and most efficent means of advertising. The customer has an easier time recognizing a brand by seeing the same band over and over.
