I'm not an expert on Cuban cigars, but I do know that Cohiba bands and packaging are readily available to make fakes. I report them on Ebay as often as I can. Fake packaging alone will run you $40 from the looks of it, and there are buyers.

From what I understand, some Cuban smokers will try to make money back by recycling the packaging on their authentic cigars. Though resale of the packaging isn't directly illegal, I still think they're scum because they know exactly what it will be used for.
