A co-worker is offering to sell me his humidor that he has had for

4-5 years that looks similiar to this one:

except the top is solid not glass and he claims it holds a count of 600.

also said he purchased it new from Thompson's but I can't seem to find it

any info on it anywhere any help would be appreciated. By the way, he's
offering it to me for $100.00
Thanks Again...

If it holds humidity, that's a great deal.

However, capacity = 600? Even CI only claims 500, and that's about
1.5-2x what most human can put in there (unless they're stacking it with
cigarettes...)

FYI, both Grumpy and I have this one

and we love it. It's got a stated capacity of 300, although I don't
think I've ever gotten more than about 170 assorted cigars in it, and I
cram the in pretty tight.

It's still great little unit, though, and pretty enough for the living
room. I think I paid $150, but have seen it on sale for $119 on
occasion.

When I bought mine, it was called "Ravello". I never counted them, but a
real-life capacity of 170-200 or so sounds about right.

I wonder whether manufacturers use the same formula to calculate cigar
capacity as petrol consumption on cars ....
