WOW that is a beauty. At least it looks like a cigar that is about all it's going for itself.
2 bills for 5 thats a deal especially if it came in the limited edition glass top box.

Mike, what do you know about those anyway???...
You're right man, it is the thought that counts. I had an employee of mine give me a questionable stick from a vacation she took this past year. I instantly knew, but obviously didn't ruin it for her. After a few months in the humi, it actually wasn't too bad at all...lol
~ 2010- The year I was "showered" with gifts from my SC Brothers.
Gratitude is when memories are stored in the heart, and not in the mind. Our hearts will not forget.

That is very nice of your co-worker. A thoughtful gift that he obviously thinks is very valuable. Good on you to not spoil it for him, he would probably feel pretty stupid.
A friend of mine is in the military and was in Haiti a year ago. He came back with some and was really excited to give me a couple. I didnt tell him, but they were obvious fakes. He told me later that he thought they were probably fake, and told him I agreed.

Nice friend but if he takes another trip to Mexico then what? I wouldn't want him to waste more money.
I would certainly be grateful but I would also hint that you read there are a lot of fake ones out there.

I had the same issue. My father in law brought me back one from his vacation. Its hard to be gracious yet protect them from separating them from their money.
