Hello, aficionados. Another stupid question from Cruiser5 here. When I receive my cigars in their packaging sleeves, would you recommend taking them out and placing them in your humidor or keeping the sleeves on? I've seen folks doing it both ways but I've never had clarification on the issue. Thank-you.

Plastic wrap take off.
I'll leave some in there ziplock bags open.

The protective sleeve you mention is referred to as cellophane or cello for sort. Leave the cello on to protect the cigar is my advice.
And please don't use that aficionado word on us. Most of us here prefer other terminology like cigar enthusiast or cigar nerd or cigar Wh0rE.
Throw the cigars away and smoke the cellophane.

Here's my dirty secret, I have more cigars right now than space so I have several bundles still in plastic stacked on top of trays. Doesn't seem to cause any trouble and keeps them from rolling all over the place.

This was just the push I needed to buy some stacking organizers at Daiso and corral all my loose overflow sticks in my crate.

Thanks buddy I feel much better knowing that's how they now look.
FIFY
No, not low, I had to take out a box to get everything to fit back. I'm packed to the gills.
So much empty

They're all full now, I took all the bundles I had and cigars that came in bags and put them in the trays. Found some cigars I'd been looking for.
Prove it
You can just see the top of the third tray in the back of my Iris 62 quart crate with all the bags of cigar trades and bombs I need to smoke and the Comfortably Numb box I needed to empty into a tray and remove to get the lid to close.
If I were smart and motivated I'd label each cigar with who sent it and load up the crate with more trays and get rid of all those bags.
Did someone say “cellophane bomb”?
