I'm considering buying a humidor for a relative this x-mas;
Nothing crazy expensive; but the trouble is, I have no idea where one goes to procure such items.

Is there a place you guys recommend I go for a decent, 'beginner' type humidor?

Ebay, I found a nice one there for cheap. You can get some quality humidor there rather inexpensively.

Your local head shop might have one. Their customer base might store cigars

Most Ebay humidors are crap. If you actually want to take care of your cigars, go somewhere reputable.

I bought mine from cubancrafters.com, and it's a very nice humi. They will occasionally have "scratch and dent" humis on sale - I bought one of those, and if it's scratched or dented, I have no idea where. It looked brand new when I received it.

I'd also recommend picking up some humidity beads from heartfeltindustries.com - they are great at holding the humidity level constant.

Meh...To each his own I guess. If you know what you are doing, you can get a nice humidor a lot cheaper than at a dealer or cigar shop from E-bay or Craig's List. Do a little research and you will do well.

screw the cheap humidors. cheap humidors turn good cigars into cardboard.

if you're going cheap, your better off sticking with the swisher sweets.

Rejuvenating a humidor is quite simple and only takes 3 days. A little distilled water and a clean cloth is all it takes.

It's certainly possible, but a vast majority of the time, you won't be able to discern the quality of something from an ebay listing. A good humidor needs to be made from thick Spanish cedar, and have a very good seal. Most humis from Ebay are very thin, use only partial Spanish cedar, and don't seal well. You're going to spend a lot of money on cigars over the years - do it right, and buy a quality humidor up front that will last you a very long time.

The "too good to be true" mantra applies to most Ebay humidors. There's no way a well-built, nice looking humidor would sell for $25...

But if it's not made of good Spanish cedar, you're wasting your time - the humidity won't hold.
