I was in a small liquor store and noticed they had a box of 1964 Anniversary Piramides just sitting in their humidor. Not even opened. So I asked if I could open them up to check them out. These sticks are from ABO 2003. Holy ****!! So I buy the whole box and ended up paying $320 because they had been there forever. Now when I start researching these, they are spelled "Pyramid' on every box and even on MMM's info thread. Now, I am worried. The box I bought has them spelled as 'Piramides'. The rating on the top left corner inside the box is from the Cigar Insider from 2001. I will take some pics when I get home. The box had an original sticker price of $425. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Boy do I hope they are real. I didn't even want the whole box but I couldn't pass it up.
 
It's Piramides and I wouldn't worry about it. Nice catch by the way, 5 yr old PAMs are great smokes.
 
The boxes I have purchased from at my local B&Ms both say Piramides on it. I'm sure they are legit, but why don't you send me one just to make sure! They are one of my absolute favorites.

edit to add: Nice haul by the way. I just hope that they were kept in proper condition considering it was a small liquor store!
 
First dibs on a fiver if you don't want the whole box.

Edit: Insanely nice catch by the way. I second on the hope that they were stored properly.
 
This is from CA ratings in '03:

Padron has been known to change the spelling of this line before, as in Anniversary and Anniversario. Enjoy the smokes!

They had two Pendergast towers. Very nice looking humidors! Now I didn't ask if they used distilled water or not. They smell fantastic!!
 
Very good of ya, vinnyvega. Lemme know how you want payment and it's all yours.

These are maduro piramides right?

Gary, I can send 4 of them and a 3000 maddie from 2004. I forgot to mention I also grab 19-3000 maddies from 2004 while I was there. Not a bad day.

And yes the Piramides are Maduro.
