The factory select look better but I have bought 6 2nds and 6 factory select at various times in the past and see no difference in them.
I twice got 2nds that were obviously old.That would not have been a problem had the stayed at proper RH for storage,but this was not the case,it tasted as if it dried out several times and slowly was brought back to life.Lost all oils and flavor.
I just but the factory select at famous now or if I find a better deal somewhere else.If I see the seconds cheaper than both at famous I will grab them.

I have seen more imperfections on a LGC Miami maduro stick than any RP seconds or FS cigars I have purchased.

Hope this helps.
thanks for the info - the 2onds i got are good- so i am happy.
so why did they label one select and the other 2onds ?
