You will probably end up wanting to store more than what a desktop humidor can hold, but at the same time, I love having my best cigars in it, separate from other cigars.
I started with a desktop humi and I still use it for a handy stash. The Cooler has boxes in it and things I want to age. Occasionally I bring a handful up and restock the desktop humi. Also, being as the cooler is in the basement, the desktop saves multiple trips down the stairs. But be warned, you WILL want to start buying boxes and unless you have the cooler or a bigger humi it will stifle your purchasing. Of course, you could just start off with a large humi and forget the desktop. Something I wish I had done. I have a new one on order and I would imagine once it gets here the desktop will be retired.Originally Posted by cls515
Well, I guess I should introduce myself before I begin giving my imput...
My name is David, I live in Cheyenne Wyoming, and have been smoking cigars consistantly for over a year now. Some of my favorites are the Arturo Fuentes Short Storys, the Romeo y Julietta's (most I love, the 1875 Bully is a fav)...some AVO's, the CAO Brazilla's and Italia's (spelling, I know)
And now, lets say I got my desktop form www.cheaphumidors.com as their prices are about the same as the Tampa Humidors at first, but they let you place a "bid" on your humidor, and they will usually accept a bid ~10$ less than their listing price.
Lets put it this way I have been smoking cigars for about 14 yrs and I have a 150 desktop humi and 2 50 desktops and a Planodor I just made I use the Planodor for aging and I keep a good stash in the other humis bigger is better when it comes to a humidor you can find some pretty nice ones at www.thompsoncigar.com Good luck
Do you have a humidor at the moment or will this be your first purchase. To be honest if it is your first purchase I would buy a humi on ebay. I got one from them for $50 or $60 that is 300 count with drawers and it works great. If you already have good experience with humis and have money to burn go ahead and get a great name but if all you looking for is an efficient way to store cigars paying big bucks is worthless, you better off spebding it on the smokes IMHO
I guess I should have been more clear, I already own my humidor, the Round El Rey, and I got it off of www.cheaphumidors.com Its a 150, they wanted 91, I bid 80 and got it.
