Antique Commercial Humidor Case - totally amazing!

[ashauler]

Ok, ok, ok... C'mon fellas - think about what you're talking about.

I was once told by a very wise man that every item has three values

1) what someone wants to sell it for
2) what someone is willing to pay for it
3) what it sells for.

Bottom line - If you own one, the thing is INCREDIBLY valuable. If you don't own one, and REALLY want one - the thing is INCREDIBLY valuable. Otherwise it ain't worth squat... By your own admissions - there are a wide range of values for that humidor - from FREE (one was tossing it in the garbage) to high end - $10,000. So - which is it?

It's been posted repeatedly on cigar forums and has not sold. What does that tell you about the potential value of that humidor?

Face it - it's a very limited audience, niche type object - bulky and heavy - that may or may not sell for what experts believe it may be worth.

The behemouth is clearly not getting much attention here - other than for the "ghosts" that occasionally surface out of the woodwork to claim what a fantastic find it is. Either sell it on Craig's List or eBay - or put it up for public auction somewhere. Those would be the BEST places to sell it.

...and I apologize in advance for "rudeness" any of you jamoches might perceive. However - I'd like to point out that we'd likely not seem so rude if you knucklheads stuck around and posted more often and got to know the crowd here. M'kay?

Rude? Who was rude?

Rude? Who was rude?

Oh please don't misunderstand me - I don't think anyone was in the least bit rude.

But - to someone outside who isn't used to the members on the board, we could be viewed as perhaps somewhat "rude" or "condescending". You know - kinda like the uncle that likes to give every one noogies when they come to his house. After a while "Uncle Buck" just grows on you because you realize he's a big hearted fella!!!
