    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.

    Watch some of the ones on Ebay. A lot are nothing more than glorified jewelry boxes with non-existent seals.

    I agree with Chris. Coolers are cheap, have great seals and allow you to buy more cigars.

    They are better, but since I'm in college, I don't have the time to build a cooler. I'll be looking forward to the time, when I get the time, to make myself a cooler.

    I don't plan on buying from Ebay (even though the prices are tempting), never have. I'm afraid I'll get a dud or just a wood box. The only things I buy online are books.
