    Get a 300 count! You'll regret it if you don't.

    +1 You will be at 300 before you need it bro, and thats no lie. I have a Treasure Dome that I've been very happy with, holds a nice steady RH, easy to organize and pretty nice looking to boot. Cant ask for too much more than that... until they make a 500ct Treasure Dome anyway... :-D

    +1. Bought a 50ct to start with. Less than a month later I got the dome. Great humi.

    ive posted this before:


    if you are looking for a 50 count because you want to be able to buy a box, then go with a 300ct.
    if you are looking for a 150ct because you will "never need that many cigars" then buy a 1200ct.
    if you are looking for a 1000ct because it will be a good end table, buy a 5,000ct cabinet.
    if you are looking for a cabinet, just build a walk in.
    if you are looking to build a walk in, just buy yourself your own shop.
    if you already have your own shop, quit your ****!!

    There is a universal physical law that cigars always increase / multiply to fill all available humidor space plus 20%! It doesn't matter what size you buy, you will fill it to the gills and have a couple of tupperdores running anyway :)


    Seriously, and I wish I had done this ......... consider the following :-

    Do you plan to "rest" cigars you aquire for a period of time before you smoke them?
    I do, for 90 days, although I sometimes break it especially if I know they have been well maintained, where I got them from.

    How many do you smoke? A day? Week? Month? etc.

    How many do you acquire or intend to over a set period of time?

    How often do you find yourself saying I wish I could buy that CCOM DDD but don't have room?

    If you do an honest and logical assessment of all the above then add 20% you should be close.

    But then, you're probably still going to fill it and find yourself saying "I need a bigger humi" if you are anything like me and alot of the other BOTL on here !!!! :)

    If you are in the market for a new humi, go big! check out this thread... http://www.cigar.com/cs/forums/thread/149454.aspx

    I started out thinking I needed a nice 50 ct....... Then I decided I needed a 15oct....... Then I got an itching for a 1000 ct.........I've also dreamed of a walk-in.......

    I've come to the conclusion that the only thing that will ever be big enough for me is the Ccom/Ci/Cbid warehouse.......

    Or the Astrodome converted into a humidor......

    Whichever.....

    In addition to being a cigar enthusiast I'm also an amatuer evil scientist. Currently I have the laboratory (and all henchmen) dedicated to building a weather modification machine that will maintain the Earth's relative humidity and temperature at 68%/70F respecitvely.

    Then, the WORLD will be my humidor. It will the the world's first, and only, Walk-Out humidor which I will gladly share with all the fine BOTL's here.

    Why, an amatuer one of course!

    My science is strong, it's just the evil part that needs work! I blame it on unionized henchmen.

    Also, may I refer you to Rule 20?
