    Smile White House Humidor Anyone?

    Anyone see this yet?

    A Cigar shop I know of about 150 miles away just sent me this e-mail:

    "This just came in, we have 1, it is $800. Limited Edition White House humidor (see attached photo) There will be a Lincoln and Jefferson Monument Humidors in the spring."

    Does it come with a stained dress with a Clinton contribution?

    Nicely done on the inside with a brass plate identifying the piece. Two lift-out trays. Really quite a heavy humidor. My only disappointment is that they didn't come with hygrometer or regulator. (I'm not getting $800 for it either). I'll try to take pics for you tonight.

    Even though I'm Canadian, I would LOVE to have one! Very impressive!

    How much are you guys asking for it? Since I don't want the members here to see the inside of it blurry like the pictures you usually take, ...I was able to get the photos from that shop.

    This thing is 3 levels deep, check it out:

    Me? Blurry pictures? Surely you jest!

    I'm getting $600 for ours. I'll even autograph the box. That must be worth something!

    You've been getting way too much praise lately with your service, someone has to bring you back to reality and shrink that head of yours...

    Figures you guys would charge less and that isn't even my local shop (that humidor would probably take up their whole shop... ). I seriously need to move if I'm going to continue this hobby...disappointing I must say, but thank goodness for the internet.

    You should try to get to one of my shows. You're not that far away. Would make for a good weekend!

    What are you smoking today Gary? My guess is that it isn't cigars...

    As a loyal customer, you can't even remember where I'm from? . That's IT, I'm changing vendors... .

    Sure, if you want to fly me out from California, I'd have no qualms with that whatsoever. Never been to Delaware .

    What's 3000 miles among friends? Yeah, I knew. I just wanted to see if you'd go for it

    I think I saw one of these either on C-Bid or CigraAuctioneer.com. Just a thought in case any of you want to try and get a deal or watch somebody pay way over retail
