Re: Cigars Purchased at an Estate Sale

There are treasures to be had; but you have to wade through a crapload of...well, crap to find them.

And it takes diligence, patience, a lot of time and a lot of know-how. Which is why there are people who do that for a living.

Re: Cigars Purchased at an Estate Sale

Are they selling a humidor at the estate sale? In other words, how have they been stored. If they spent too much time out of the humi, they might be bad. If they are a bargain, they might be worth it. Weigh your options.

Re: Cigars Purchased at an Estate Sale

If they're in a humi and the hygrometer says 65/65 - Yes. Is that unlikely - Yes. Dust on the box - (Do we really need to go any further?)

How does a dead person keep their smokes properly humidified?
