I've seen major manufacturers (Altadis and General come to mind) place display humidors in shops to showcase a particular line of cigars. Typically they come with a package deal where you buy so many boxes of the showcase line and you get the display unit free with it.

Typically they claim to want the unit back when you stop carrying the lines, but in my experience they could care less. It costs Altadis less to buy a new humidor than it could cost in shipping to move the one we had to another shop.
Thanks for the info. I also found "cigets Companion" on line that were some Fuego Cubano cigarette/cigar hybrid this case was made for, Apparently they didn't last.


Any opinions of value?
