"My rule of life prescribed as an absolutely sacred rite, smoking cigars and also the drinking of alcohol before, after and if need be during all meals and in the intervals between them." - Winston Churchill

QuoteCigarPlace - 6/19/2014 12:05 PM I'm sorry. Good cigars damaged by improper storage by the store... I'm allergic to mold so I'm certainly not going to smoke it. He'd be refunding my locker storage money and replacing every cigar in my locker. Oh and this is Jessica as a person and not the company I represent making that statement.
I could not agree more. I'd also expect full refund of affected cigars and some kind of compensation for my trouble. I'd also wabt the assurance that the problem has been solved before I would even remotely entertain the idea of storing any of my precious cigars there again.
Just my $0.02

The mold spores can usually be removed but it is a longer and more taxing process than most folks want to deal with. I'd also advise against putting these cigars into your "quarantine" humidor as that humidor will be able to absorb the mold spores as well as wood is a permeable surface. Perhaps use a small cooler instead and keep an eye on it. Then only keep those cigars in there and disinfect when done.Ziplocs also work well for this purpose.

A Medium plastic bag also works in a pinch.
