How is the CAO Black 100ct. Humidor?

It retails for pretty high but I've seen it go for around 50 on cigarbid. I love the black and mosaic design and it comes with a trey as well as three dividers. It comes with an analog hygrometer and a large rectangle humidifier.

Now how is this humidor, which can be had for relatively cheaper, compared to the ones from cheaphumidors.com and other sites like that?

Hey, I know who Snot Pickle is. Welcome to CS.

I would think it is a good humi, just a little small. It does look cool. You are paying for the name on this one.

I am a Duke fan. NCRM, as in North Carolina Radio Man.

I am a fan of Wooden becuase he is a very wise man. It has nothing to do with hoops even though he was the master.

WV?

Duke's recruiting class is slackin' so the UNC domination will continue for the next couple of years.

Josh McBob should be a beast though. As well as my homey Gerald Handerson.

Re: How is the CAO Black 100ct. Humidor?

Just wondering, how does the CAO branding help selling on and resale value of these humis in the future. over here i know if you buy a Montecristo humidor you can sell it on in the future for agreater price due to the branding [has to be official though].

Re: How is the CAO Black 100ct. Humidor?

The CAO humi is pretty decent it reminds me a lot of my 100ct 5Vegas humi.

The are well made and have a great seal, just make sure a 100ct is what you want

Re: How is the CAO Black 100ct. Humidor?

Yeah I only have a 20ct humidor right now so I'm on a hunt for a 100ct one.

It seems like other than the ebay humidors, the CAO Black 100ct humidor is the best/cheapest option.

Those glass/window humidors on ebay are sweet though.

The analog humidors on these are probably really bad right?

I got mine for 53 shipped off of Cigarbid.com. Came packaged well, styrofoam surrounded it and all packed in a CAO box. So it came in great shape, it was a little bigger than I anticipated. I guess going from my old 20 count I just didn't know what to expect. Quality is top notch, finish is great. All the dividers etc are movable depending on what you have in it. The humidifying element and the analog hygrometer are both secured with magnets so you can easily take them oyut for maintenence etc (my old one had velcro that literally fell off nightly)I My smoking pals are def jealous. I really can't recommend it enough. Its only my second humi, and I ddon't claim to know everything by any means, but I'm very very happy with it. Hell I make sure i walk guests past it to see cause I LOVE answering "Hey whats that thing?".

If you'd like I could get measurements or take pics for you if any of that would help.

Now is this the one with the Black and White design on the top. If so, I got one of those off of Cbid a few months ago and it works great. After getting a cooler, I am only keeping two, and that is one of them.

Just thought I'd share the pics of this humidor so you had an idea what the thing looks like inside and out. I am a noob on this board and to smoking cigars really so my stash is not impressive or anything but it wil give you an idea of size and constructiona nd all
