    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Just keep it out of direct sunlight to help manage temp and humidity swings.
    I still need a good cutter. I saw this one on the same site

    Unless you want something pretty on your desk or table, the cost effective solution is a larger Tupperware. Aka tupperdore.
    Ahh I know haha I will get a tupperware but I still wanted something I could leave out on the table

    What is best for you will depend on what area of the country you live and its climate.

    A great place to start out is with a Tupperware container and using Boveda packs for humidity control. 65% Bovedas is a great place to start and its cheap. $20-$25 and it will keep your cigars without worry. As you learn more you can get something more pleasing.

    A word of advice, don't go buying boxes or even 5'ers of cigars until you really learn what you like. It takes time for your pallete to develop and you don't want to end up with a bunch of cigars you really have no desire to smoke a year or two from now. Limit your purchases to 1 or 2 like cigars until you grow in the hobby.
    I will be picking up a tupperware along https://puffclassics.com/megacra-cedar-and-leather.../ just to give them both a try.
    As for buying cigars that usually what I do now Ill buy a few and try them out then go from there.
    Thank you for your advice

    If the wood on wood seal is not great I may add a little fill there or something

    I keep my humidors in side my Tupperdors just to control their environment. All Boveda 65% for humidification

    Honestly, I've never heard of them. I always try to stick to Xikar, Colibri or Palio for my cutters.
