Hi All

Does anyone have a humidor sitting around that they are looking to shift on?

I'd also be interested in buying a few single non cubans for comparison, about 5 inches and 40ish RG is where im at, and not too strong for a beginner!

Cheers

Jonno

If you just want something mega-cheap before you decide to spend more money on a proper humidor, a tupperware box and a Boveda pouch (http://stores.shop.ebay.co.uk/SouthSideCigar_Humidification_W0QQ_fsubZ17601824QQ _sidZ9227541QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em322) from ebay should be fine. Probably about as hassle-free as you could get!

[Apologies, I've just noticed this is in the 'Wanted' forum. I'll get my coat.]

word of advice, spend extra for a bigger humi..you WILL be filling it quickly if you buy a little humi

I've gone for the budget option of a boveda pouch and a tupperware box, cheers Dave!

Indeed! I've been at this since January and my current storage for several hundred cigars is a large tupperware box and a coolbox. Much as I would like a pretty humidor, it would be quite expensive to house the amount of cigars I already have, and that money could be better spent on more cigars!

one thing about the boxes is the possible plastic smell, which apparantly bleach will remove.

Shouldn't be a problem with tupperware. I didn't notice a smell when I bought mine. There was a slight smell in the coolbox I use though, but that went with a weak bleach soak. I suspect they wouldn't sell many boxes designed for food if they made your food stink of plastic.
