Default Re: Original Release Opus X Perfecxion No.2

Apparently this is not an Original Release. Members from Cigar Family said I got a real Opus, but not a OR. I bought this from smokinj

Apparently this sh*t stain scammed a bunch of people on a bunch of different boards, including this one (he is banned) here.

This review is still good b/c I didn't exaggerate any of the flavors. I think I had a Opus with a couple years on it, not 15.

All I got to say is Karma is a bi**h and I hope this guy burns in hell (I hate thieves).

Allright, here is what I bought from this scumbag:

Between the Lines (BTL) reverse wrap '04
Anejo #77 Shark -'06
Anejo #55 - '06
God of Fire- by Carlito 2006 churchill
Untold Story (UTS)- '06
Opus X- Perfection No.2 (original release)
Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario toro 2007
AF Flor Fina 8-5-8 Sun Grown- '03
Casa Fuente Robusto- '07
Work of Art Maduro (WOAM)- '04

for $190 shipped.

Here is the picture he posted back in may. Luckily I saved it before that jerk took it down:

He will get what's coming to him one day, but on a positive note...You really enjoyed that smoke.

Glad you enjoyed the smoke Dan....but it sucks the douchebag scammed you. I saw the mention of it not being a legit OR at ICC and didn't know of the scammers past. Drove myself nuts searching trying to figure out what happened.

That is what I will remember this smoke by. A great cigar. I am going to have to try to forget the loser who sold it to me though.

You can never have too many cigars, they are like an investment in good times.

I was told on Cigar Family that the rest of the smokes are probably real, but that I shouldn't trust the years that he is claiming.

Do you think he switched cello, Dan? Hard to believe a 2 year old cigar would have that kind of yellowing.

Anyway, glad it was a great cigar for you.

On the other boards, he scammed people for over $5,000 dollars selling "original release" Opus and Anejo. They think he used some chemical or re-used cello b/c he had WTB ads for cigars with yellow cello.

He is #2 on the scumbag list: http://www.vitolas.net/wiki/%20scumbags/list

Here are some close-up pics of the Don Carlos Anni and the Casa Fuente. They look real to my untrained eye, but I am guessing he lied about the years:
