It will be presented as a flawless, high quality diamond.
You will love it, I assure you. Friends will compliment you.
It will be brilliant.
Turns out it is really a cheap, well made Cubic Zirconia.

Care to make that deal?
PM me your addy in exchange for the cigars.

With your analogy, Cuban cigars are diamonds and non-Cubans are CZ's....just not worth as much.... Just a cheap(often costing more) replica of superior product? That is an interesting way to look at it.

Frankly, I find it shocking that is what you interpreted from my analogy.

You were alluding to not caring what was in the product, as long as you liked it. You alluded to not caring if you bought Cuban and really wasn't, as long as you liked it.
I am alluding to selling you a Cubic Zirconia in lieu of a real diamond, and guarantee you will be as happy. See the similarity?
Has nothing to do with what you have translated to and that was never inferred by me in the least of ways.
You clearly don't know that I am a Padron Anniversary whore and prefer them over any Cuban on Earth.

Amazing how the English language can be construed.
