If you are not concerned about "looks" and just want something to protect your cigars you could go with a Tupperware (or Rubbermaid) container -- food grade only. Or you could go with a small cooler. You just need something with a decent seal. If you want you can then add a hygrometer and some beads and you are on your way with a very nice set up.

The advantages to these solutions are cost and they keep cigars very well. These containers allow you to get something a little bigger as you will quickly outgrow a 50 count

If you go for a new humidor and try ebay, be careful. Many of the cheap humidors being sold there are not made well and don't have any Spanish cedar other than the trays.
