yossie Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 Start price is 250 USD without shipping which is market price at yahoo auction here. If there are those who are interested in the item, bid it! (Don't post price for it, PM me directly, please.)
Colt45 Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 We all know that the trading room is for trades, but in the hope of keeping this humidor in the FOH family, I feel the posting here is warranted - if the intention is to offer it for sale at the posted price to the first who inquires. I would not feel very good about it if the intention is to auction it for the highest bid, while having it posted for auction elsewhere as well. That's my personal view, and I'm not trying to represent the views of my fellow mods or ownership. Yossie, you won the humidor fair and square, and it's yours to do with as you wish, but if I may - if ever there was a piece of "FOH History", this is it, and it saddens me to see that it would be sold or auctioned, and the spirit in which it was created to be disregarded.

Colt, I know It is probably a rude action. but I don't have space in my house for what I don't use. So, I have only 2 choices which are selling or dumping. I absolutely don't intend to offend Alain and FOH commmunity. I still take Oris on my left hand ,indeed.

Since you didn't buy it, you should give it back to FOH. I think it's lame and disrespectful you are selling it. A lot of hard work was put into it for someone to enjoy and not sell for a profit. -Patrick
Rogers72 Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 I agree with the above posts. It is yours and you can do it with it as you please of course. Had I won it and no longer use it, I would ship it back to Rob for him to re-use in some fashion to raise money for charity here on FOH. It truly is a work of art and may not be appreciated as much by someone not familiar with its origin. If you decide to do something like that and money is too tight to ship it, let us know and I'm sure we will find a way to get it back to Rob.

Trevor2118 Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 We all know that the trading room is for trades, but in the hope of keeping this humidor in the FOH family, I feel the posting here is warranted ............................ Yossie has contacted me about this. He is very upset that his decision to dispose of his humidor has caused such bad feelings among some of the FOH members. Because of this, Yossie has decided to offer me the humidor "..... because of your website’s contribution to Cuban cigars". Obviously on a personal basis I am very pleased with his offer, and I hope that Yossie's decision is greeted positively by all FOH members. It should be noted that Yossie could have quietly disposed of this humidor and it would have been "lost" forever. I inspected the humidor when it was completed and it is an exquisite piece of workmanship. It will have pride of place in my home.
rckymtn22 Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 Thankyou Yossie for the great offer to Trevor! It is a great recongnition to him for all the hard work he done/ continues to do on the website and it is keeping the humidor in the FOH family. Trevor if down the road you decide to pass on the humidor, keep me in mind!
Chaki Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 Congratulations Trevor! Losing it to you is not a loss at all
