Jeff sells a multitude of Pre-embargo cigars which he must prove to the US GOVERNMENT their provenAnce. Maybe you can check his credentials with the BATF?

Well, at this point it doesn't matter what Mitchell said before since he came to this thread and stated his opinion clearly. He didn't say whether the cigars looked authentic or not, he stated that any box of Davidoff's that says "clube" on it is definitely fake. Are you suggesting he's changing his opinion based on the statements of others here? Why are you questioning his credibility if you wanted to use him as a reference to validate your cigars in the first place? Nobody is calling you a liar here, they are just pointing out facts that are not adding up.
Also, Davidoff is a post-embargo brand established in 1969, so no US vendor would be doing any sales of Cuban Davidoffs, therefore to suggest that they are familiar with those cigars based on sales of pre-embargo cigars is moot. We're not questioning your honesty nor that of whoever you got the cigars from, but unless you can demonstrate to us provenance and where they originated from, at this point the cigars look dubious at best.
