I can surely answer "yes" to the first two questions but these are a little out of my league. I've more of a www.cheaphumidors.com guy.
I've had my time spending BIG $$ on this stuff. At this point in my life, it's more about functionality. Get a decent humidor and update the humidifier / hygrometer. Now THAT's talking my language!

When it comes to cigar paraphanelia I dont know cheap......My local cigar/liquor store had its last day today and I went there for a bottle of stoly's and came out with 2 prometheus lighters and cutter, box of Oliva's belisco and a couple perfecto's and a couple puros indios. Yeah ive looked at cheaphumidors but cant seem to find one I like, http://www.aristocrathumidors.com/cabinetindex.html has some real nice onces and there made here in texas.
This could not have come up at a worse time. Look at this bad boy i picked up two days ago!! I am in the process of brining it up to humity before I stashes some of my beauties in there. The owner of my local shop has this puppy on sale 1/2 off for a chip it had in the corner of th lid. So she is mine now.

That is truely beautifull.................I love the humidors that represent cigar names. I try to pick them up when I find them at a good deal........ this is one that I have wanted for a long time, there is only a limited number made and they are like $7,500 on ebay
Sean,
Is that a Fuente Opus X??? One of my faves. The R&J I picked up is a numbered edition I have 129/130. They guy dumped it on me for $300 with all the humidifiers and 2 hydrogemeters and he threw in a maximus diamond crown. One hell of a strong cigar, comes on spicey and stays that way all through out. Nice black pepper taste with it.

Maximus diamond crown?......never heard of it, im a oliva grand maduro man myself. R&J makes a maduro with a black label(cant remember the name of it though)that I love but at almost $7 a cigar there rare for me. Yes that is a opus that prometheus makes..beautifull!! That is one hell of a deal that you got....im jealous.
Wow Adam!
I was going to ask you how much you paid, but I didn't want to be nosey...
At $300 that is a helluva deal!
Those Opus X humidors have stayed fairly stable, price-wise. Like all things "Opus," it's a very carefully controlled supply which keeps the demand (and the price) at it's maximum.
I do love those cigars, though... Like just about every Fuente I've had; the contruction is as close to repeatable and top-notch as possible in a hand made product.
I've just finished the last of my Havana stash. Frankly the fairly high ratio of plugged cigars has left a really bad taste in my mouth (exc. the pun). For the price and the hassle of getting them - I don't believe they're worth it any longer. Pre-boom... they were just excellent. Post-boom... every factory is rolling and shipping immature cigars rolled by inexperienced torcedors. Sad - but it's all about making money.

I can't help this thread out...sorry...the only thing that I smoke is oak, hickory and mesquite in my BBQ pit and then my wife makes me take a shower before we go to walmart because in southeast missouri...that aroma on a man attracts all the single girls to him...you can be as ugly as lard soap and that fragrance will attract a cute non-cooking female right to you....
I should bottle that for around here....

Mark,

Sean,
That price is off by about $1 a stick. I get em for $10 a piece. Then again I have never bought them, he did throw one in I I sat around and smoked it in the store. He was hoping I would buy a few before I left, I didn't but they are on my mind. I might just have to age a few in the new humidor. They are hand blended by Fuente and just spectacular if you like a strong cigar.

I have a uncle who is a master at wood working.............The little stools you see in catholic churches people kneel on......he makes those in virginia beach and has just signed a contract with some one to produce them for a series of churches I guess. Instead of me spending around $2000 on a custom humidor he is going to make me one.
