Moldy cigar - smoke or store?

[badwhale]

My wife would prefer I not intentionally give her a moldy cigar. YMMV. Unless a "moldy cigar" is something on urban dictionary, in which case, she still would probably not prefer it.

LOL Mark and Will

Just my two cents here but.........my favorite B&M wouild replace those no questions asked. I've brought back a few cigars that were rolled so tight I couldn't draw and he replaced them. So there's no doubt in my mind if I got one (or more) from them that was moldy, they'd be replaced immediately too.

If the B&M where you bought them is a reputable business, they'll replace those without hesitation so I would say, take them back and exchange them. If they don't, obviously they don't want your business (or anybody elses) and I would never go there again. If they do replace them, I would immediately inspect the replacements before leaving the store.

Well, after agonizing over this, I went back to the shop and explained the situation about the mold. The guy swapped them out without so much as a blink. I got 3000s instead of 2000s from a different box.
He took the ones I brought back, though, and put them right back in the box I got them from, mold and all.
The shop is less than a mile from my house, which is nice, but I see I'll have to look closely at everything I buy.

Thanks again,
Matt

Give the guy credit, at least he didn't try to convince you it was plume.

That's nice he exchanged them without complaint but I am surprised he put them back into stock. I guess he's hoping for someone clueless and partially blind to grab them *shrug*
I'd say he rates as being halfassed 'reputable'...........lol

On the plus side, you got 3000's which aren't moldy and those are a good cigar. In fact, I may have to have one later today......
