Those are just crazy, crazy numbers! I'm in the 300-500 range and feel pretty good about that number, but could easily see nearing 700-1000 if I had more storage...lots of cheaper boxes I'd like to buy for everyday smokes that would add up pretty quickly.

Hahaha... I just read this.

I got another one and it's filled. :r

Didn't change what my cabinet looks like, though, I got the boxes behind the visible ones in there.

Re: How many cigars in your possession? For the VERY sick folk
 
When I first began, I really got caught up with the auctions and was buying things I had no clue or idea what they were like. I just bid on them because I wanted cigars....(need to examine that statement). Then I found myself doing all sorts of crazy things to win the bids.. would stay up late and put in the last bid one minute before it closed, got ticked at the guy who would always bid me up and I tried to outbid them, (did this many times), and would always try to buy that new cigar everyone was talking about whether it fit my palate-profile or not. I rarely bought a 5 pack or sampler, but, opted for a bundle or box, sometimes two of each or more. I have tamed down and bid very little now or buy very little. Hell, I have just about everything and no where to put new boxes or bundles, unless I build a larger walk-in and that aint going to happen. I must admit, though, am a sucker for 10% or 20% off on sticks especially if I dont have too many of that brand. In another thread, I posted am always looking for $1 stick, so that still stays with me. Cusano lower end prices for sticks, CC, M1, MC, P1's, and Alec Bradley's Spirit of Cuba are the latest. Even with all that said, Free Cuba at $1. a bundle of 50 for $50 at CI is the best for me.

Ummm more storage Matt? You're the guy that bought somebody's display humidor that was full a few months back! I beg to differ that your 3-500 is
probably 1000-1500!:noon

I have a real-time inventory now :)

I created a Google spreadsheet so that as soon as I smoke one, I can deduct them from my inventory from my phone. I have every cigar and every size listed. I am starting to put in values so that I know what my collection is worth.

Re: How many cigars in your possession? For the VERY sick folk
 
man before i found this site i didn't even know what a humidor was...now i'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a waxing moon humi AND an aristocrat because i can't fit anything else in my 100 count...not to mention i like to show off my treasures...

i've probably smoked like 25 cigars in the past year and always buy in batches of 5 or more to justify smoking 1...i'm sure i'll be "sick" in a few years from now...since the humis are for my singles purchases and i want an aristocrat so i can start to purchase some boxes of the singles i know i really like...

I love this thread, and it definatly needs some pictures. Well that is mostly so whenever my girlfriend tells me I have enough cigars I can just pull up this thread and show her that I in fact have too few cigars and need more. :r:r

Yeah, and when you do, that is all it will take. That's what happened to me years ago. I have around 600 - 800. All I need to keep me interested. I spend around a grand a year now that I'm in the groove. I also enjoy all the different humidors on top of my furniture. Cool

I would like to know how many above the 10,000 mark are STILL married (assuming they were at some point). But more importantly whats the trick, how can you possibly convince her that thousands of cigars are appropriate.

I must know the secret, for I fear I will be forced to use it some day. :D

Started smoking about 18 months ago or so. Had quite a bit of freetime (and a little extra cash) to read all the reviews and learn a little about cigars and got hooked. Think I just passed the 1600 mark or am very close to it as of the last delivery yesterday. 4 coolers, almost packed solid. About 30% cc's. So, a nice mix in there. GOT TO STOP.

Tyler 08-08-2011 10:32 PM

Re: How many cigars in your possession? For the VERY sick folk
 
I think it would be literally impossible to smoke 100,000 cigars in one's lifetime. If you live to be 80 and have only smoked since turning 18 and smoke one a day you will have smoked 22,630 in your 62 years of smoking. So to get to 100,000 that is 4-5 smokes a day for 62 years. Holy balls. Now that being said I realize alot of guys collect and then share with friends etc. I am just saying that 100,000 for personal use is crazy! But that is why we are the Cigar Asylum. I guess they truly belong here haha.

I am currently the proud owner of 13 premium sticks with another on it's way. I'm just in the beginning phases of my cigar habit. One of these days I will be rollin' with the big dogs.

Does the humidor at work count as one of my own? :r

I've seen 26,000+ cigars before, and it was terrifying. I don't even want to know what 50k or 100k would be

IlmProcess 04-16-2012 01:53 PM

Re: How many cigars in your possession? For the VERY sick folk
 
Just started again. Around 30 with a box coming in. I might need a new humidor here in a minute

Lets just put it this way...if I smoked a cigar every day, without buying any new sticks, it would take me about 10 years to smoke through what I have...

Sure, I will put one up...

Basically, I use 7 different 28 bottle Vinos, and a 128Ct cooler...

Honestly, about 1/4th of that number is singles that I am not allowed to smoke, so the more sticks I buy, the number keeps going up (esp since I usually only smoke about 3 cigars a week or so)...

Probably aging... it's a good way to keep cigars around and see how they mature. Out of sight, out of mind........ :)

I wish!

No, when I started my blog, I decided that one of the things that was missing from other sites was to have photos of all of the cigars in a given release every time there is a new release, to compare past and present to each other.

So, I started collecting every cigar I could get my hands on in a given release...all the tat blacks, all the Fuente 13s, all the Viaje Exclusivos, all the Litto Small Batch, all the Tat Verocu, all the Tat Cojonu, all of the Viaje S&B, etc etc etc...

Sadly, it got out of hand fairly quickly, so I had to move all of them to the cooler, which literally full of nothing but singles of various lines...

The good news is that we are starting a section called "Collections" which will have all of the release info for each cigar (which really comes in handy when you are trying to find out exactly which Viaje S&B you have lol!)...

See here:

http://www.halfwheel.com/?page_id=25340

Here is what I am talking about, every Tatuaje Cojonu that has been officially released (and one that has not as of yet):

http://newpull.halfwheel.netdna-cdn....je-Cojonu1.jpg

The main problem with this way of doing things is that I have almost every LE cigar released in the last 5 years, but can't smoke them :r:r

Sorry, probably more info then you wanted! LOL!
