    Thanks
    I just recently purchased one from ebay...The Governor.. is what they called it, anywho I won the auction for 9.99 and yes did get hosed on shipping, 30.00 but for 40.00 bucks or so I think it was a great deal. 150ct humi, glass top, Nice seal, hygro blows goats, but I got a digi for it, and best of all my humidity stays pretty stable!

    in my limited experience its like russian roulette

    i got one humidor that was 75 sticks for 35 total in february, and it sucks
    it didnt even have a hygyrometer and the seal is not too good. however i tried again with a 52 dollar 300 size that arrives tommorow. when i searched the second time i looked for designs that were uncommon and not starting at .01 cents. i think the designs you would see 10 or 15 of would tend to have lower quality.

    That's the exact one I was looking at; guess I'll give it a shot.

    I'm batting about .500 with e-bay humidors. I did quit buying the real cheapies and that helped.

    I'd buy but I feel a lot better paying an extra 20 bucks to get a warranty from a business online ex: tampahumidors. No guarantee that it will be perfect and then what do you do if it sucks?

    I bought one for about 30.00.Had to seal it with weather stripping.Supposed to hold 75-100 smokes but would not hold over 50.Get a cooler and you will always be happy.

    I got mine on E bay from Robusto's and Im satisfied. Only paid about $45 for the humi, and then another $15 for shipping. Seal is great, spanish cedar, have to buy some beads for it, and the hygrometer sucks, but I got a digi for it now.



    Says its 150 count, but I havent had that many to test it yet.

    I bought a humidor off of ebay and compared it to "mine". And, the quality wasn't even close. Take the time to research a few good humidors and invest in one. Not to say you have to put your car note on one, but if you invest in cigars go ahead and invest in a humidor. I bought one from Holt's and it has been great.
