Sorry...
This is the culmination of close to a year of learning/research, and my family and most of my associates count this as yet another one of my psychotic hobbies (along with firearms). To say they treat it with disdain would be close to understatement! Just wanted to share with friends.
Finally, finally, finally, the box came today!

What is it, you ask? Well, let's pop it open and see!

Very sleek wrapping. And sealed with a small sticker of the Daniel Marshall logo to boot! And what hides under the paper?

This thing looks a hell of a lot slicker than I thought it would. The finish is fantastic and darned if I can find any flaws. 'And what is it, you daffy bastard?!!', I hear you cry....

Daniel Marshall Ambiente 125 count humidor, high gloss black with silver trim. Got a 'Best Buy' rating from Cigar Aficionado. Bought directly from Daniel Marshall as part of their private stock sale. Excellent customer service, and they were even nice enough to throw in 25 of their Black Label cigars. I've been wanting to get a humi for ages, and finally decided on this one.....I wanted something that would be quality, but not cost me an arm, a leg, and a kidney. Got the whole shebang (humidor, digital hygrometer, humidifier, tray, and cigars) for 490....regular price on this model of Ambiente is 595 I believe. Now I just need to snag me a good lighter (thinking a Colibri Trifecta) and ashtray, and I'm ready....
But.....the question still remains.....what else should I stock it with?
