  1. Hi y’all! Ive read thru a lot of posts on here and based upon those have a few questions I hope y’all will suffer thru answering with me. I’m on vacation and looking at some MONTECRISTO NO. 2‘s at a local seller here. They have a fair amount of good reviews (the seller) on google/TripAdvisor. They offered a pretty steep price for 1, but a *decent* discount for a box of 25. I’m out of the US for awhile so *might* get a box. I had a look at the open cigars, and the 2 boxes sealed the seller had on hand. He offered that if I bought a box we could crack it open and inspect it on the spot to make sure things were on the up and up. I got some quick pics at the time, but will go back sans wife to get a slightly better look and pics. I alas didn’t get the best shot of the micro-serial spots on the *top* of the box label. (I’ll post pics I got) One of my main concerns is that when I look at the pics I see a few boxes he has with the same serial #. I ran the # of course, and it says it’s Cuban, but not the MONTECRISTO NO. 2. I do see from reading here that *sometimes* the verification site might be a bit wonky. He had a box of RyJ’s on top of the MC’s that had a label with the same # on it I see in my pics later. Short question: is duplicate serial #’s a huge red flag? TYIA (or is it Cuba being Cuba) seller has excellent feedback online and has been established locally for a min or two. Seems to do most business selling 1 off too tourists. *also I know I neglected to get a pic of the right montecristo from an open box, duhhh!*
