When do you buy your last humidor?

It seems everytime I buy another humidor I run out of room pretty quickly. I have a couple of travel humidors, several 20 counts, a 50 count, a 300 count and I even have several AF humidor bags. I bought the bags, which work very well, when I ran out of room. At what point do I just get a 1000+ count cabinet? They look pretty expensive but if I don't get one, I see myself owning too many humidors to keep up with. I don't know if humidifying so many of them is cost effective.

You NEVER buy your "last" humidor, it's a never ending hobby.

Get yourself a cooler or wine refrigerator cheap. Now you only have one to take care of.

I would suggest finding a cabinet that you like, and converting it into a humidor. You know, a big one that sits in a designated room of the house. Something that will hold boxes upon boxes. Old record players and china cabinets look like good donors to me. I've been looking at making one, and I like the idea of having glass doors and display shelves as well as bulk storage.

Keeping up with 4 different humidors would be a bit much for me...... I think I'm going to do it big on #3 instead of #5. Just my $.02

Get a cooler. Think about how many cigars you can put in a cooler!

Re: When do you buy your last humidor?

just a thought

1. Buy a bus
2. Line it with Spanish cedar
3. Put Wall-mart isles in it
4. Get kiddy pools full of 70% beads
5. Store your cigars
6. HAVE THE COOLEST BUS/HUMIDOR EVER

my estimates is that it would be around 100,00ct, that should be enough for a little bit

Coolidor time! At 40 or so bucks a pop it leaves you more than enough leftover cash to fill it as opposed to a cabinet humidor. Although I must admit not as nice on the eyes.

Re: When do you buy your last humidor?

100 quart cooler at Wally's for about $75,,,think about how many cigars you can put in there and this one has wheels on it when you need some cigars "to go",,,,
