I make up my own mind about everything and I know what I like. I smoke cheap-ass CC's and like them better than expensive NC's I've smoked. For me, it's no contest. I don't think anyone is counterfeiting Joey Petes or LFdC's so I will continue to buy with confidence.

I saw someone else call them that. The point is that they're too cheap to bother counterfeiting.
