Aristocrat For Sale

jimdandy · 10-09-2012, 03:39 PM

This may not be the correct place for this post; if that is the case, my apologies. A friend of mine has been diagnosed with liver disease and was told to discontinue smoking. Therefor, along with selling off most (he is a bit stubborn) of his cigars he also needs to sell his humidor. I thought there might be some interest as this is an exceptionally nice piece. He is asking $7500 for it; I believe it is a ten or eleven thousand dollar humidor. Please let me know if there is any interest and I will get you his contact info.

It would be good to know exactly what model it is and what the upgrades are. The one you picture goes in the $3500-$4000 range, but upgrades could drive the price well beyond that.

The upgrades on my mxt cost well over the price of the base cabinet.

A location would also be handy, since shipping could get expensive.

icehog3 · 10-09-2012, 04:43 PM

Does he have any pictures of his actual humidor? I know if I was thinking about shelling out 7K+, I wouldn't want pics off Bob's website, I would want pics of what I was buying specifically.

jimdandy · 10-10-2012, 07:53 AM

I will work on getting the exact specs with all the upgrades and actual pictures. It is located in Lubbock, Texas.

Thank you, he is actually doing really well. They cut his medication way down and he is getting some of his energy back. I don't think he has been smoking at all, but I know he isn't going to give it up completely because his vino-temp is still packed. I think he will enjoy them few and far between though.

John...first of all, that cabinet is beautiful!! I'm a little confused though. I have been on Bobs' site and priced the set up...with all the upgrades and still can't figure out where $10-11K comes from? Hell, I'm capping out at like $ 6900...and that's with the $ 300 white glove delivery.

icehog3 · 10-10-2012, 12:04 PM

Mac, those pictures are off Bob Staebell's site, not specifically of the humidor for sale...just for clarification.

I got that Tom...thanks! I priced a Mxt Plus THC 4874 with all the specs and still can't get it to total $ 10-11K...like I said, I capped out at around $ 6900. Maybe it's that Pennsylvania math.

jimdandy · 10-10-2012, 01:53 PM

Well, I did say I believe it is that expensive. I'll tell you what, I will find out if he still has the original invoice.

At $7k or $10k it's way out of my price range so I never tried to price it with the options. In fact, I can't figure out how you would price it off the site anyway, every option I can find a price on is $X and up.... So

I'm not trying to pull a fast one on anybody, just trying to help a friend out. Perhaps I should've researched a little more before posting...

I see what I did now, I was looking at the MXt and not the Plus...the listed MXt Plus with THC-Temp & RH control starts out at $7299.00. Add all the upgrades and I can now see how this put him back $ 10-11K. Please excuse my mistake.

And the Mxt has some prices listing for upgrades...
"Shown at right- Mxt 26.5 with options:
Mxt 26.5 - $1969.00
Crown Molding--$160.00
Ellipse Edge Inlay Top-$299.00
Upper Raised Panel Doors-$295.00
Lower Raised Panel Doors-250.00
Central locking system-$75.00"

No biggie; all I know is that if I had the cash I would have bought it the first time I saw it. Of course I'm assuming I could have bargained on all the cigars within too

jimdandy · 10-10-2012, 04:33 PM

Ok, I was a little heavy on the price. I must have been accounting for inflation and sales tax! The following is copy and paste of an email from Bob:

Here are the details:

Mxt Plus THC 4874 w digital temp & RH control-$6199.00
Dark Red Mahogany**
Large 2" crown molding-$200.00
Medium Bullnose-$300.00
Raised Panel crotch mahogany side panels-$1600.00
Raised Panel crotch mahogany doors-$1600.00
5 ea full extension shelves-$300.00
1 ea full extension drawer/loose cigars
Standard base molding
lock & keys
hardware to be selected

subtotal-$9000.00
shipping-$250-300.00

**Crotch mahogany panels to be slightly lighter than case work.

Here is the link for hardware. If you select knobs 1 1/2" is about the max diamter. Handles can be in the 3-4" range on centers.

I will look forward to working with you. I will keep you posted on progress via email

cheers,
Bob Staebell

This was built in 2009

He also told me he would certainly consider offers.

Briscoe77 · 09-15-2014, 12:19 PM

Was wondering if this unit was still for sale??

AdamJoshua · 09-15-2014, 01:05 PM

Well the thread is 2 years old.

09-15-2014, 01:37 PM

Shucks, and he created an account just to see if it was still around.
