"Mint Condition" Macanudos

AD720 · 01-04-2009, 12:32 PM

I found this listing while doing a wide-net search for a used cabinet humidor.

While I have seen some ridiculous stuff on craigslist I am actually holding my sides laughing at this one.

That is too freaking funny!!!

He will ship them at "his expense".
What a guy!!!

Too funny -- although hopefully someone doesn't fall for this.

If anyone falls for that and can afford two cigars for $1500, they probably won't feel the pain of knowing they paid for fakes as that has got to be cash intended for pissing away to begin with.

markem · 01-04-2009, 12:49 PM

Sweet! I asked for priority shipping ...

massphatness · 01-04-2009, 12:53 PM

I sent an email asking if he'd do one for 750.

MikeyC · 01-04-2009, 12:48 PM

Makes me wonder if he was told they were CC's when he bought them and is too ignorant to know better or if he is really trying to pull a fast one on someone.

BamBam · 01-04-2009, 01:09 PM

I am willing to sell the exact same "rare" Macanudo cigars for half what he's asking.

I will sell mine for $375 a piece.

See mine here.

Give me a few days to get them in from my..um...Jamaican supplier. I call him "Junior"

SmoknTaz · 01-04-2009, 02:22 PM

Anyone notice the empty slot in the bag? Maybe he smoked one and realized it was $hit

and wanted to sell the other two to pay for his trip?

atlharp · 01-04-2009, 03:08 PM

Does he have box codes? I think these were rolled by Toboada!!

atlharp · 01-04-2009, 03:12 PM

I know we're all just having fun with this, but has anyone considered exchange rates? According to a conversion I just did on coinmill.com, $999 Jamaican dollars is $12.89 American.

I could see Macanudos going for $10+ plus a stick if you were in a tourist-trap situation, like a liquor store that sold cigars in a hotel lobby.

My vote is for Crook, not Idiot. The person who buys from him, they get my idiot vote.

Thanks

Let me know what you want to do and when. I will be around for the most part. Thanks man, we will be talking. Happy New Years

I'm going to ask for his address and send him some Monopoly money.

I cannot believe this guy is for real!!! What a douchebag.

You should send him monopoly money and a print out from an online vendor showing the price of these things.
