So outside of wineadores, tupperdors and herf caddies, are there's any sub 100$ 10-50 count humidors that are functional and will hold humidity? My sister is looking to buy her fiancé a humidor for around the 50-100$ range and I told her to wait until I spoke with the BOTL collective...lol

BnB has humidors and I thought hopping on one of those (if a groupon deal pops back up in time) or really anywhere will work as long as it doesn't leak like a siv.

There are a lot of sub $100 humidors out there and they can be hit or miss as far as quality. Personally I would go with Savoy and you should be able to find one around $100 for a small and there are a lot of options with finishes.

When does she plan on giving it to him? With enough time, you could get a nice one for under $100 and test it for air leakage and then fix it up for her.

Stay away from glass top/pane ones. They look nice but tend to leak.

I have a 100 count I paid about 80.00 for, it's branded (5 vegas) but I like the artwork.

I'll look into Savoy C-Mac, thank you.

For Christmas Rob. I'd like to get one that doesn't require fixing but I'm right there on the McGyvering if need be..lol

I've seen that humidor a handful of times, does it seal well for you Highlander?

Yes. Once I started using heartfelt beads it in and have no issues. The cigar things I used before made Me think it was the seal but it was the crappy product.
