I'd like to change my vote after recent unforeseen events!

shvictor · 08-07-2010, 01:54 PM

I have about 50 or so

GolfNut · 08-07-2010, 04:27 PM

Just got a box of Henry Clays in so that put me back to around 40. Last year I had 400 at the peak! Got a little (ok a lot) carried away with bombs on another forum and nearly wiped myself out, but damn it was fun! Arsenal will be rebuilt though.

Or if you smoked once a week, you will have one mighty nice collection that will last 50 years.

For me, it is all about perspective.

Smoke what you like and if you have the means to buy more cigars, go for it.

For me, it is not about numbers. For someone who likes bundles, one could easily spend $1K and end it up with 500-1000 cigars.

On the other hand, there are some people who have no problem dropping $5 to 10K (or more) on a box of vintage cigars.

It all depends on what you can afford and what you like to smoke. I buy cigars I like to smoke and try not to get caught up in what other people have.

With that said, I do love looking an people's collections.

around 1200

GTsetGO · 08-15-2010, 02:20 PM

i have around 300 i would say.

just need to find some time to smoke some of them.

09-11-2010, 06:05 PM

About 3,500 sticks here. I have two very large lockers in my shop. One local retailer buddy has some stored for me. Another retailer buddy in FL. is storing boxes for me. 3 cabinets in my office at home with an additional 9 desktops. Yeah I have a problem. When I smoke a cigar I love to smoke 2-5 year aged sticks in addition to newer sticks that I like to smoke now.

My favorite "go to" stick now is the Partagas Benji master series and I have 10 boxes and I keep getting more as there are only 5,000 boxes produced. Just picked up 3 boxes of the new CAO La Traviata Maduro as these are excellent and I get each box at $65/box.

TheDudeAbides · 09-11-2010, 06:41 PM

Somewhere in the 300 ish range. Plus that box coming UPS. Oh and those other two fivers. Damn, time for a bombing run to make room.

Just added another 10 sticks to my collection. A fellow BOTL from Portland just bombed me with 10 sticks, a bottle of Pyrat rum, some Tillamook cheese, and smoked tuna and chinook salmon. Gonna be a great evening.

New thread coming soon?

dwoodward · 09-12-2010, 01:39 PM

Just counted. 114... much less than I had thought that I had. Anyway tho, by the end of the week it will be up to 143 sans any I smoke lol.

hammondc · 09-12-2010, 02:12 PM

I have a Davidoff Humidor that a friend from 'the business' gave me. I keep about 50 or so in it which makes it about 75% full. I'd love to get a cabinet so I can buy boxes, but I simply do not smoke enough to justify it (1-2 per week). I am considering a coolerdoor that can go in the closet.

EDIT...just counted...there are 51 now and I have an order on the way. Bout half full, I suppose.

ucla695 · 09-24-2010, 10:51 AM

My answer: not enough
My wife's answer: Too many

sevans105 · 09-24-2010, 10:56 AM

Just did inventory when I transfered all of my cigars from the coolers into the gigantodor cabinet. 553. It'll be 552 in just a few minutes when I go smoke one although I think I've got an order or two still hanging out there.

I've vowed not to order any more until I've smoked/given away at least a tray full of them. So, I'm gonna try and stay around the 500 mark. We'll see. The trouble is, I still have 2 completely empty trays! They look so lonely next to their brothers. Ah well. We'll see how long I can last.
