New Humidor Advice

[BDurrani]

I was thinking about buying a new humidor because my current one only fits 25 cigars, which is not enough anymore since smoking cigars is become a favorite of mine. I was thinking about getting a 100-150 count humidor then I stumbled upon this baby --->

or (same humidor, different site)

It seems like a better buy because most humidors that are 100-200 count are more the roughly the same price or more. Plus I'll probably be smoking cigars forever.

Now to my question, has anyone ever bought from cheaphumidors or from cigar humidors online before? Did the merchandise arrive damaged or something wrong with it? How was the shipping?
Also, does anyone own this particular humidor, if so how well does it keep your cigars/work for you?

save your money and get a cooler.
you can buy more cigars that way.

Cooler

1. Cheaper
2. Holds humidity extremely well, better than my desktop, which is why the desktop is in the cooler
3. Saves time, you don't have to put the cigars in the humidor, you can just put the box in the cooler
4. Ages cigars in original boxes

Wow, didn't know much about coolers. Looked up some info and found out they are really easy to make and do hold a lot more cigars. Plus it's inexpensive.
Thanks for the info/help.

The cooler is the way to go if you plan on buying alot of cigars (and its cheap). I still like to have a few humidors to put my singles in (since I managed to almost fill my 2nd cooler even with 10+ cigar trays). However, if you do plan on buying that humidor the cheapest place to get it is on Ebay. I just got the exact model for $52 (that includes shipping). Just look through Ebay and you should see the model, its preatty common (it will be about $30 and about $20 for shipping if you get it from the same person I bought it from). Hell you may even find some other cool humidors on Ebay.

Coolers are great now because summer is over and the big ones are all on sale. You're trapped now

Ebay has a lot of humidors, and they are dirt cheap. Shipping is a lot though, guess it makes up the difference in price.
