humidor ideas

i don't like buying from ebay but tons of people do it and are usually very happy with what they get. I personally use a coolerdor and love it.

you can find some excelent deals on ebay on humidors.

ive gotten two humidors off ebay, one is the same size and quality as the 80 dollar south point i got from cigar.com as a freebee with the fuente box deal. the other is 2 times as big and still same quality. the seller said 150 count but theres no way it will hold that, 110 at the most. but its still a good box. if you see items listed as slightly damaged, dont be turned off at all. the first one i got said that and all it had was a little scuff on the side of the finish, you dont even notice it unless you look for it.

I don't know how much money you're willing to spend but maybe a frigidor might work well. To make a small one out of say a 16 bottle wine cooler would run a few hundred dollars but when set up right is virtually maintenence free. Just research the topic well before you risk your smokes. I just learned that the hard way.

Here is the humidor I bought. It holds about 125 sticks, and you can see them without opening the top. I have had it for about 5 months, and have had no problems.

I bought an awesome cabinet humidor on ebay for $150. It's beautiful and holds about 68% humidity. It will probably hold about 200-250 cigars.

I and many others have said it a thousand times, buy bigger than you need. It is rare that someone takes that advice, but just trust me on this and buy something big. You WILL fill it up eventually and having the dead space won't right now won't kill you.

If you don't buy big you will learn the hard way like me, I now have 3 humidors.

andy ~ No, no problems with quality at all. The cigars they sent with it suck, but then again, I didn't buy it for the cigars. That has been all I bought from them, I buy everything from JR's now.

yeah, ive been browsing ebay, and there is some pretty hot stuff there, and i set a cap of $50...
i dont even need another, and im really having to restrain myself here :?

Don't forget to look around various cigar web sites, and also check out . . .

and do a google search for the name Bob Staebell. He makes some of the most beautiful and best humidors around. They earn high marks from everyone who has purchased them.

ahh you are reffering to aristocrat, and although I don't have one (yet), many believe them to be the best of the best. They are very nice.

That's right, Aristocrat. My friend DocBarry has one, has recommended them since I first met him five years ago, and long before that as well. I have never heard a complaint about an Aristocrat humidor. Expensive yes, but you get what you pay for. Beautiful, stylish, and supremely functional.
