After randomly looking over craigslist the other day I came across a humidor for sale. The deal was too good so I had to buy it. It might leak. It might be completely useless. It might just look pretty in this corner of my house.

Side is marked as a JC Newman Cigars Display Humidor.
Nice score. Let us know how it works for you
what are you doing for humidity?
There's a large tray in the bottom. I'm using that now just to season it since the last owner had it dry for quite some time. I may just throw a couple pounds of beads in the bottom. I'm considering the cigar oasis route as well if I can get it for the right price on cbid.Quote:

Congratulations Zach!
Nice snag
We gotta have some pics when it's REALLY full
Nice score! Hopefully it doesn't leak much at all, if it does it shouldn't be too hard to fix.
Nice score congrats! I would bet you are going to need active humidification with the size and glass doors.
My advice, since it happened to me & I had to move mine, make sure sun doesn't hit it during the entire day. I was good for all but early morning on mine BUT it got WARM during that early morning. Found a non-sunny place for it to rest & all has been good.
Either way...nice score!
I use active humidification in mine. I use two of the Hydra LG Humidifiers. Got them on cigarbid for half price. I swapped out the foam for some different beads that just hold moisture & evaporate. It's worked for me since 2010.
