I've got a camping trip in a couple of weeks, and I'm looking to get the 3540 model (the 15ct). Anyone know a good place (cheap) to get one?
I've looked through Ebay and Cbid and a little froogling already.
Also has anyone tested how watertight they are?

Bargain Humidors (http://www.bargainhumidors.com/bh/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=HUMT-3540) has 'em real cheap.

Some folks don't like them but I have never had any trouble.

I got mine at CI came with a bunch of cigars in it I think it was around 40 bucks. I really like the one I have and have been thinking a bout getting a 5 count to keep in my golf bag.

I have a 5 count that I use when golfing (fits pretty easily into the golf bag) and on the weekends when I'm taking a few into work. Packs in a suitcase pretty easily, too. I recently picked up a 3540 off Cbid for $16 (didn't happen on the first time though - just have to be patient and place your max bid when the aution first opens on it so other folks have to outbid you).

The deals on CBid can be good, especially if you find one with cigars you actually like, but BH probably has the lowest everyday price...

BOTL members, in a few weeks, i will be offering my version of the cigar caddie. it will come with 4 foam cigar trays. The trays will be the good ones like Viper139 sells. If you are carrying large ring gauge cigars, it will hold 3 trays. If thinner gauge, you can fit 4 trays. These cases will also be available with robusto Trays that hold 8 cigars up to 6 inches long. Depending on which trays you use, the case will hold from 18 to 32 cigars.I will also be selling the trays seperately. I will post a special for BOTL members.

question, what kind of prices you seeing for a Cigar Caddy that holds 18 cigars?

Well, dunno, BH has the 15ct for $20 plus 5 for shipping. There isn't exactly a 18ct that I've found. BUT if Ron is gonna have a version I'd much rather suport him since he seems like a real stand up guy. I smoke more robustos than churchills. If Ron has a caddy coming I might just use some tupperware on my upcoming trip and wait for his offering.

ok, just checked. mine will be same size as the 5400. the better trays cut back on the amount of cigars that it holds. as i said above, mine will hold between 18 and 32. Price will be right. should be 2 weeks.

Thanks. That looks like the more firm type of foam too. Gonna consider these.

i think its an improvement over the cigar caddy foam. deeper grooves to hold the cigars in place, and the trays are more rigid.

Cool. Thanks Ron. I'll think about it.
