No way he is the real deal. I get cadbury cream eggs every year as proof! Unless those are fakes

You really need to do stand up comedy.

Did you know that almost 95% of all NC cigars in the US are fakes? Backed up by well known writers in magazines and elsewhere to boot! Almost all NCs come from the same llama farm in Peru. Not dog rockets, but closely related.

But my writing isn't nearly as funny as yours.

Consider the source, Carlos. If you're heavily invested in the sale/profit of cigars that you personally sell, or are deeply invested in, doesn't it make sense to propagate propaganda?
It took a single post for me to completely lose respect for an entire organization. I don't think I'm at all interested in CRA protecting my cigar smoking rights. I'd rather go with an outfit that's willing to roll the dice by spreading truth.

JMHO

95-percent of all Cuban cigars that make their way into the USA are counterfeit!
Your "cubans" must have been part of that 95% Stinky!

People with vested interests, as Scott pointed out, will misrepresent numbers to their advantage. I would tend to agree that if a vendor (e.g., a B&M) in the US is advertising Cuban cigars that they are fakes. Perhaps more than 95% since CCs are illegal for that vendor to import and sell on US soil. But to then extend this in the way that some do is, well ... let's see, there are lies, dammed lies and then something that begins with 'statistics'
