Is your Humidor count getting low?

01-08-2011, 11:10 AM

I know in my household the current economic situation has affected my ability to keep my two humi's fully stocked, how bout you guys? How low can I go before it's considered a cigar shortage crisis?

I know what thats like, luckily I havent been smoking as much lately.

cricky101 · 01-08-2011, 11:48 AM

I don't smoke as much during the winter so mine stay's pretty stocked during the colder months.

I am way low in my humi too. I don't smoke much during the winter, but I give away more than I smoke.

My stash has gotten pretty low. I just haven't been that interested lately.

If I keep bombing people, my stash is gonna get low. But I got a loooong way to go before that happens. BTW, if anyone says yes in this thread, they are just asking for a beat down.

Mine keeps increasing, but I do find myself trying to find cheaper sticks to smoke. I don't want to smoke a $10 stick every time.

I"ll PM you my addy and you can send those sticks to me. I'll gladly smoke them for you.

akumushi · 01-08-2011, 12:14 PM

I have enough smokes to last me until about March, then I'm in danger of running out completely. That's almost a year from when I last made a box purchase, so I guess I know the answer to those "how long would your stash last in the apocalyse" kind of threads

Here's to 2011 being a better financial year for everbody

since I'm a newbie, I'm still in "acquire" mode...I've gone from having 2-5 sticks on hand as an average, to having 25-30...I'm pushing the edge of my single humi's storage and I'm looking hard and fast at a 150-200 count box...'cause I'm hooked on this trading and bombing biz and want to have a good pool to pick and choose from!

Go bigger. It will save you money in the long run as this place has a tendency to shove guys down the slope and we often end up with much larger collections than what was first intended.

I'm in restock mode right now

replicant_argent · 01-08-2011, 12:55 PM

I can see a lot more white in my cooler. With a combination of the recent events at airports and the economy, I will be seeing more and more white in it. The plus side is that it is a very large cooler, and the vino is partially full, as is the desktop. I do not want to try to consolidate them all (and partial boxes becoming full singles boxes), as it will probably be slightly depressing looking at the future. There are enough smokes for a good while, however, as my goatlike palate can handle all but the worst cardboardy tent pegs.

I hope my interest comes back and I go into restock mode soon. Just not feeling it right now.

Mine is always full because I commit to buying a cigar of equal or greater value than the one I will smoke. Over time you get pretty stocked up on super premiums. I don't smoke a lot.

Bill86 · 01-08-2011, 01:04 PM

I have enough cigars for the entire year smoking 1 a day and then some. My coolidor is probably half full, so I got plenty of space to buy more. Of course due to the winter I don't get in one a day for a few months out of the year. But then and again I got more on the way, always.

01-08-2011, 01:46 PM

My cooler is looking pretty empty. That is thanks to the wonderful work of customs agents, and the fact that most of the NC's I like are rather expensive and too expensive for me to stock up on multiple boxes.

I used to smoke 2 cigars a day, now I'm down to 1. It's 17 degrees here right now.
