Mold on expensive B&M sticks.

[Bill86]

They will tell you it's plume every time.

There are always some moldy sticks in B&Ms they just push them off on unknowing people. Tell them it's plume and they are the best sticks in the walk in.

I'd zip my lip, leave, and never return. I've found there's a never-ending stream of sources that sell cigars without mold, don't play the always-tiring plume game, and are willing to bend over backwards properly taking care of their cigars and customers.
I mean seriously, if they don't have the mental capacity to take care of a cigar, how in God's glorious name ae they gonna handle a customer with a problem? Real poorly, that's how.

That's painting with a very broad brush Bill.

I won't deny that there are a number who will behave that way, whether it is out of greed or lack of knowledge, I don't know, nor do I know what percentage of B&Ms operate this way, but I do know for a fact that not all B&M owners/operators/staff are like that.
