Cuban cigars - we all love them - but they're hard to get here in the states.

I have a (female) cousin that's in Switzerland right now and has agreed to bring me back a couple of boxes w:d/ . Are there any pointers I could give her to make sure she's not ripped off with a a couple of boxes full of fugazis (Donnie Brasco reference for all of the senior citizens on this thread =p~ )?

Also, has anybody ever bought Cubans from an online retailer? If so, what was your experience? Any online retailers you could recommend?

Oh, and if I've broken any rules, I apologize and will be happy to take down the post. 😲

My understanding is that the legality issue surrounds buying goods from Cuba, not owning Cuban goods - I have a cousin, who is in Switzerland, buying Swiss goods (that so happen to be made in Cuba), and bringing those Swiss goods back with her.

You need to do a lot more homework if you do indeed care about legality.

Wow, another CC thread in what, two weeks?

Might overtake overbid threads at this rate.

The legality issue isn't buying them in the states. There is a BAN on CC's in the states. If she takes them to the plane, she won't make it past customs. I don't recommend even thinking about bringing Cuban's to the states unless you want some HUGE fines and possible jail time for just possession of them...

It's probably against the law to even read an online discussion about Cuban cigars.

Not really.. I can smoke em as much as I want. At least for the next few months 🇨🇮

I just don't understand what people don't get about them being illegal. I'm a n00b and I know that.

I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Probably a good idea as I'd hate to have her get roughed up by customs. Any reccomendations? I can't believe nobody on here has bought CC online...there are several youtube videos by some dude name DrJoe-something-or-another (who claims to be in the US) showing him unwrapping and inspecting CC that he bought online.
