Default Anyone hear of Don Pepin counterfeits?

I was thinking about how Padron Anniversary cigars have the double label for anti counterfeit measures...had anyone heard of DP smokes being counterfeited?

Interesting, perhaps some of his higher end stuff from Tatuaje, but most of it seems to be in good supply and in a decent price range.

From what I've heard, almost any desirable cigar, CC or NC, has been counterfeited at one time or another, especially when demand is high and supply low.

I'd imagine the tatuaje bands (sans regional releases) are pretty durn easy to counterfeit, too...

The Cabaiguans remind me so much of a QdO band. but, I've never heard of a counterfeited QdO... hmmmmm......

I agree, those would be easy to fake.

Otherwise, no. I haven't heard of any DP counterfeits.

Nope but I ordered a box of RP 1990's off some website once and I swear they were fakes. All the bands came off a few seconds after I'd light one up as if it was glued on there.
