Default Re: Just bought a 600ct humi and need advice

Thanks guys for all your advise as I really appreciate it, all of it! I am going to run Scott's beads if he has any left. I pm'd him yesterday afternoon and haven't heard anything yet. Hopefully he isn't out of them. The humi already shipped, I've got 70 cigars on the way, my 75 ct is overfilled, so I gotta get rockin!

Doesn't sound like you have enough time to properly season the new one. Better setup some tupperdors or cooleradors in the interim. You can ruin good cigars by not properly seasoning a new humidor just as easily as you can ruin it without the proper humidification devices.

Congrats on the freefall down the slope. Keep in mind, there is no bottom....

Good catch - the man speaks the truth. Stick the new cigars in a few tupperdors for the time being while you season the humi properly, the sticks will be fine in plastic for a while. Make sure you get her good n seasoned, a 600ct is a PITA to empty and re-season

How much time to season? I have barely enough room in my current humi but I can make do for sure. It is coming monday and I should have the beads by then as well.

That's a crazy good deal. You'll have to let us know what it looks like when it comes in. I mean, I almost paid that much for my last humi and it isn't nearly as schmancy (and I mean that in a good way) or have even half the capacity. This is a borderline "too good to be true" type of deal.

Anyone else ever buy from this vendor before?

That is the same thing I thought! The cheapest I saw one for was $259 + shipping of this same type...I just stumbled on it and could not pass it up. They apparently shipped it the very next day...got a tracking number...hope the box isn't full of rocks and garbage!
