I know you need a good humidor if you have any decent cigars to keep them fresh. The sales clerk at the cigar store should be able to give you detailed instructions on how to care for it and your cigars.

The humidors work to keep the tobacco in cigars from drying out. Basically it works like a small humidifier in your home. You could probably do the same thing by putting them in the refrigerator, which is what I do with cigarettes. Actually, I keep them in the freezer because I've cut way back in attempts to quit a little at a time. Keeping them in there does not cause the tobacco to get moldy or wet while storing or in removal. Maybe you could give it a try by putting in just one cigar at first, then after 72 hours remove it.

Just a suggestion.

A humidor creates moisture so the cigar does not dry out. There is nothing to change you just add a couple of drops of water to create some moisture.

I have attached a link for a great cigar company in Tampa, Fl but they do deleiver.

I've had a humidor for several years now.

The purpose of the humidor is to keep your cigars at peak freshness. Ideally, conditions for your sticks should be at about roughly 70% relative humidity and 70 degrees F.

In your humidor, you will have a humidification system in which you will put the solution – usually 1:1 distilled water and Propylene Glycol. The PG acts as an agent that keeps the Relative Humidity inside your humidor balanced. A hygrometer will measure the RH so you can be assured you are at the correct level. Be sure you calibrate your hygrometer.

Given proper care, your cigars will keep for years.
Some people really value properly aged cigars (they will develop a "bloom" over time – a fine white crystal that looks like powder).

Please note that Spanish Cedar works very well at maintaining a humidor at the proper humidity. Do NOT buy any humidor containing aromatic cedar – this is NOT the same type of wood.
