Follow on Google News | CheapHumidors.com Announces Proceeds of New Website to Be Donated to a Consumer Advocacy GroupCheapHumidors.com has launched CigarBargains.com, a new website where prices are negotiated in real time. During the month of March, 10% off all profits will be donated to a consumer rights organization.
Additionally, during the month of March, Dave is donating 10% of all profits generated by CigarBargains.com to the consumer advocacy group, Cigar Rights of America. According to the Cigar Rights of America website, "CRA is a consumer-based, non-profit public advocacy organization that works at the local, state, and federal level of government to protect the freedoms of cigar enthusiasts." Mr. Sabot is most excited about partnering with Cigar Rights of America stating that, "It feels good to be able to support an organization that advocates for the individual consumer and protects the freedoms of those that enjoy cigar smoking as a hobby." Dave went on to say that, "Donating a percentage of all profits to CRA gives the consumer a way to lend his or her support to the organization, which helps to ensure that CRA can continue the work of their mission." David Sabot opened his Cheaphumidors.com Web store back in June 1997, hosting it on a free site with nothing more than a picture of three humidors, a price and an address to send checks to. Since then, he has grown his site in to one of the most successful cigar-related destinations online. "I really didn’t know too much about cigars or how to store them, so I turned to the Internet. What I found out was that you needed a thing called a humidor to properly store cigars. So I started shopping for them. I went to my local stores, consignment shops, etc. Their prices were un-real. They wanted $200-$300 for a box to store cigars. I almost fainted. I did some research and it turned out there were other people like me. Guys who wanted to store some cigars but didn’t want to spend a fortune doing it. Well it doesn’t take much to see there was a market here that was pretty much unfilled." "I found a company that would supply me with humidors and I could order only a few at a time for $45 apiece. I bought one as a sample and to store my own cigars in and decided to take a picture and throw it on a free-hosted Web site. Much to my delight I started to receive orders and inquiries for the product and as they say, the rest is history." In addition to http://www.cheaphumidors.com and http://www.cigarbargains.com, Dave also opened a third website, http://www.buylighters.com, in early 2009. # # # Cheap Humidors is the best place to shop for Cigar Smoking Accessories, Cigar Humidors, Cutters, Humidifiers, Lighters, Ashtrays, Cigars and More.
