Default Re: Santiano cigar cabinet

I've been looking around for quite a while and can never seem to make up my mind . Just can't swing an Aristocrat . The only thing I don't like about the Montegue is the split doors but they don't bother me that much . The Verona appeals to me also but I don't like the glass door on it . Has anyone had any success with the make an offer options on Cheaphumidors.com or Tampahumidor.com ? I have 2-90 qt. coolers filled that I would love to have fit in my new cabinet .

The Devil had cabinets that might come in at almost half the price. I know a number of members who have gotten their cabinets delivered for under $500.

You can never have too many cigars, they are like an investment in good times.

Does the devil really charge $249.00 to ship one of these cabinets ? I'm guessing they drop ship them from Florida because I don't live too far from their store . So that is the only way I could see the high shipping charge .

The single reason I don't buy humidors from the devil site. RAPED on shipping. Though I've been looking at the cigars.

Even after shipping you can come out well ahead of the price to be found on any other website.

I did both times, but I believe the maximum discount is 5%.

Yes, I got my Montague last week. I offered just under 15% off like the fine print says on their site. So, 525$ for no discount and offered 460$. Their shipping calculator is either off or just BS since it said my shipping would be
50$ from Fl to Va. My shipping was actually 125$ which when you add it to my discount the price was same in the end as the regular price with 50$ shipping.
Either way great packaging no damage and the wood was already at 62% RH when I got it which made seasoning fast.

Here is a little info from my experience with a few vendors that sell cabinet humidors . First - Call them for an accurate shipping quote , I called 3 vendors and spoke to 2 of them , both quoted the shipping incorrectly on their web-sites . 2 quoted higher over the phone and said the website quotes were off . Secondly , 2 vendors were willing to adjust pricing when I asked if they could do better on the price . I ended up bidding on the Sentinel on Cbid and won it , I saved about $150.00(even after the ridiculous shipping charge) and it's coming from a vendor I'm comfortable with and is well known . Third , Sales people make claims over the phone that I really don't know how to check if they're true or not . I would like to thank all those who responded to this thread and to those who PM'd me for their help . Thank you all very much . d
