Found these on Scranton, PA CL. $150 sounds like a good deal if the sticks were maintained...

    @ $150 I would pass.

    Fair enough. I wasn't planning on buying it personally, but thought we could use a thread on stuff like this...something to talk about anyway :p

    Gotcha.

    I do check weekly. You never know. There are some towers that pop up time to time.

    That locker would be awesome in a home parlor.

    This one is by me. I wonder if it is spanish cedar lined

    Definitely has cedar lining. Looks like that whole tray lifts out of there to reveal a deeper compartment.

    The guy just messaged me back saying it is eastern red cedar tounge in groove planks. For the right price, it might be a nice little gem.

    I wonder if I use cigar boxes as trays, would it be a big deal?

    Definitely no problem with using cigar boxes in lieu of trays.

    Aromatic cedar, definitely don't want to use it for cigars.

    But it's nice enough, that you could remove the Eastern red cedar and replace it with spanish cedar.
    As soon as I saw the pictures I knew the cedar.  ^^^^^^ what he said, don't use as is for cigar storage.

    One look at that humidor, then ask yourself: were these cigars maintained?

    Not craigslist, but I'm seriously considering it.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    There was a really awesome porcelain Opus X sign on there a week ago, Tony. I think it went for $395.

    I'm very skeptical about those pictures.  There is a sticker in one picture but not another, there is a hygrometer in one but not others, there is a bunch of loose sticks in one, but not another, the liga box on the bottom changes from 9s to t52, the boxes at the top change, and no sign of any humidifing devices.  There are more discrepancies than those above, but got lazy.  Not sure this is real.  Or pictures were taken over a long duration.  I would ask a ton of questions.
