Just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Dan I'm from Richmond, Va and just recently started into the Cigar hobby. I am in the process of picking a humidor (100-150 ct) and am trying to learn as much as possible!!

Welcome aboard, Dan! We have a welcoming thread that you might want to post in. That's what we consider the 'front door' around here. You'll learn a lot here, and the more time you spend here, the more you get into cigars. I can't say enough about the community, and I hope you enjoy your stay!

Thanks guys, I started wanting to get a 50 ct humi but then decided a 100-150 would be better I am not sure a 200-300 would be in my budget. Also thanks for letting me know about the "front door" first day and I'm already messin up, go figure!!!!

Welcome. Don't feel like a 100-150 count is going to be too small. Even if you got a 500 count it would be too small, that's why everyone has tupper-dors and cooler-dors (eh-eh-eh). This place is a great resource and lots of great deals on sticks.

I guess they really add up, I may start with a desktop (100-150ct) to display and then maybe an overflow coolerdor, that may be the route I go, but money is a factor on humi's and cigars so I am sure I will have to start slow and buy when I can.

That's how it was with me when I started. Now that I have some extra spending money, it's a challenge to stock them. This is especially true if you're taking advantage of the daily deals here. You start building a collection pretty quick, lol.

Welcome aboard man! Oh another piece of advice, keep some form of log or something on what cigars you smoke, that way if you think you might have had something before, you can always go back to check and see if you liked it or not. And you can also see how your tastes have evolved.

I will do that, i have been saving the bands of the ones I have smoked so i can keep track but a log will be good as well.

It was no time at all that I graduated from a 75 to a 300 stick humi... I found a really decent one for just over $100, not that bad considering the investment you're protecting. I'm in NoVA.

Thanks for the welcome everyone!
