Box purchase storage question

Preferably #3...but if it comes sealed I wouldn't worry too much as 1-2 weeks(esp when you wont get this for 5 days after shipping so they will really only be out a week+shipping) isn't a large enough time to do any un-reversible damage to the cigars. I don't think the box will have enough room for a bead tube, but it might. Keeping them cool, out of direct sunlight, and hidden is a good solution.

I am at max capacity right now, so I currently have 3 boxes in a large 2 gallon zip-lock bag with a 65% Boveda pack. It works quite well for a quick solution and maintains a perfect 65% RH. The Boveda pack has been in that bag with various boxes and samplers for 3-4 months now and still has plenty of life in it!

Excellent! Thanks for that idea - think that's going to be my short term fix - except I;ll use one humicare pillow and maybe the 1oz bead tube as well just to be on the safe side.

I did this for a lil bit, and it worked great. But one box leads to more, and I learned that a Coolerdor is Great for boxes.

i got an old ice chest just like brand new a gott) cleaned it out with mild soap and use the crumbeled up newspaper way for 3 days to eliminate the plastic smell, which wasnt much to begin with) and added an extra span. cedar tray and several of the dividers from other humis and smells great like a humi and added some boveda paks and its holding right at 70% going to use it for boxes
