Smile Well, I'm gonna do it: buy a cabinet humidor from Tampa!

I've been eyeing one FOREVER at Tampa Humidor and I think with school money and tax provisions coming in I'm going to go ahead and get this baby. With the Oasis XL, which I will need a more active humidfication system in the next few years as I begin deploying alot withing another year.
Are the guys at Tampa good people to deal with? Does anyone have a particular contact I an talk to? These are the kind of things I like to order with a person over the phone and not online, you know? Any assistance is great!

My wife got me a 300 ct. for our anniversary from Tampa and they were great to work with. The hygro was damaged in shipment (not that I use the analog) and they sent out a new one.

A VERY nice choice, especially with the outlets built into it. Makes using active humidification a SNAP.

If you get it, I want to see it in person....since I live so close.

I have done business with Tampa Humidor many times they are real nice. If I remember correct Mike Howe is the guy that owns/ or at least runs the place and was super nice to me when I dealt with him.

Re: Well, I'm gonna do it: buy a cabinet humidor from Tampa!

First off, congrats on the soon-to-be-purchase!

Second, I've dealt with Tampa Humidor and Mike for the last year or two, and he's been great to deal with. Just FYI to all, his new place should be opening up soon (across the street from his current location), and I'm told it's going to sport a 1500SF walk-in humidor, and seating for at least 50. I'm also told he plans on having lockers, and has already started a discount membership plan. His prices are some of the best I've come across for a B&M in the area, and that includes most places in Ybor City.

I purchased my humi from him a while back, and it has worked out VERY well for me. Will probably end up purchasing another one from him, as someone keeps watering down this damned slippery slope I'm standing on.

I picked up a Salerno 300ct from them a little while ago. Quick shipment and it arrived in great shape. It's really nice and has a great seal.

Enjoy filling that thing up.

Yes sir, Mike Howe. I've been talking to him about ordering some custom printed golf tees and he seems to be a heck of a nice guy. I think he'd be the guy to talk to, however if the employees are all as nice as he is, you're golden no matter who you talk to.

It is on Pre-order, so I do hope she ships soon! I got the Oasis XL Plus to keep everything nice and fresh too!

That looks like a great setup. You will not be dissapointed. The only problem now is spending more money on sticks to fill her up.
