I am pretty damn excited, thought I would share. Any comments or suggestions?

What do you think would have been a good deal to pay for all of this as a package?

Re: Order in route
 

Just so im tracking. You bought 3 humidors?

Re: Order in route
 

Yah I have a small compulsive problem.
Thats one of the things I would have done diffently.
I should have just bought on bigger humidor.
For a while I will be just buying cigars,
I think I will have the essentials now.

Can't wait for the hybrid lighter. Seems like a cool concept being able to choose a normal flame or a torch.

I give him 6 months before he just gives up and buys an Aristocrat. :r

Re: Order in route
 

Haha I had to Google Aristocrat, I NEED one of those!
You guys have no idea how much trouble your gonna get me into.

Re: Order in route
 

They come bigger, too!

BTW, you posted pics of 3 empty humis, Dude, you are screwed!

Re: Order in route
 

The Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne Epicure and the Perdomo Slow Aged lot 826 are among my favorites. I also really enjoy the Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Maduros as far as less expensive Maduros go. Great pick ups. Let me know how you like those. You also should check out the cigar auction websites, Cigarbid.com and Cigarauctioneer.com, if you haven't already. Great sites at getting expensive cigars for cheap. Just be sure to cross check the item for its true price before bidding. Simple search on google or through Cigars International and Famous-Smoke to make sure that I'd you bid your not paying too much. Be patient and you will find great deals. I have won boxes of cigars for up to as much as 75% off. Happy buying and welcome to the madness of the hobby.

Re: Order in route
 

I'll take one of those please!

Re: Order in route
 

Blak,

I just quickly glanced over your lists and maybe I missed them, but don't forget to pick up something to keep your boxes humidified (gels, beads) and don't rely on the analog hydrometers. Get digital ones to monitor the temp/humidity.

Anyway, you're off to great start!

Re: Order in route
 

Oh GREAT advice, I was just planning on using the little humidifiers that come with and distilled water. You are saying I need to have gels or beads in addition? Okay I will get digital hydrometers then!
Thanks again.

Re: Order in route
 

You shouldn't need gel/beads in ADDITION to the humidifier, but they tend to be a little less hassle when using them instead of the humidifier.

Don't worry though, I used the foam humidifiers for a couple years before switching to beads.

Re: Order in route
 

Not in addition to, but instead of. I, personally, use Heartfelt beads.

Re: Order in route
 

When I was using 50-300 count humidors, I got rid of the little foam humidifiers and replaced them with beads as mentioned above. Sorry for the confustion!

Re: Order in route
 

Not a fan at all of Colibri lighters. If you have problems, there are some good threads here about better alternatives.

Re: Order in route
 

Yah I saw a ton of issues on here with the Calibris (after I placed my order of course).
My plan is to track down some of those Ronson torches as back ups.
Haven't found them yet though.

Re: Order in route
 

Brother, you sure are asking for it? Empty humidor pictures, can't find Ronson JetLites......

:r

Hey fellas I think he needs a newsletter too while I come to think of it. That way he is up to date. He might need a few back issues too.

-(P :banger

Re: Order in route
 

yah I should just shut up now.

But seriously, there is a CA newsletter?

Re: Order in route
 

Yeah, I'm getting two a month now that I moved. The other gets sent to my new address.

Re: Order in route
 

I am smart enough to know you guys are trying to get me in trouble (maybe).
Thanks for the help guys.
