LAST UPDATED: 1/22/2022
After a while of collecting dust on the shelves, we've decided to offload some of the cases and stands to free up some room for new products. We've never advertised them for sale until now and we expect them to sell quickly. We will periodically update this page, particularly when items are sold or a sale is pending. The last update will be posted at the top of the page.
All cases/stands function identically to a brand new version, meaning they are legitimate humidors that will protect your instrument EXACTLY the same as our new inventory. Please read the descriptions and note the abbreviations of each Second Hand Inventory item at the bottom of this page.
Working Condition: All cases/stands for sale are in working condition as a humidor
Base Unit: All bases that allow for a ClimaStand configuration (Floor Model), will be our 1st generation unless otherwise noted. If no first generation base exists, the only option is to upgrade to a 2nd generation, fold out base which is full price unless otherwise noted
Humidity Control/Monitoring: All ship with the standard humidity control and monitoring, which includes a starter kit of Boveda Two Way Humidity packets and a Caliber IV hygrometer/thermometer by Western Digital
Glass or Acrylic: There will be a If there is already glass in the door, we will keep the glass in. If there is no glass installed, they will get high quality acrylic installed

Second Hand Description/Type
As the name indicates, these items will tend to exhibit cosmetic flaws. Some have noticeable scratches or dents and others are very hard to see with the untrained eye. Often times the flaws are typical of damages that can occur during shipping or from use for product photography, at trade shows, or have been returned by the customer
Most of the time we will repair as much as we can, but the defect may still be noticeable. Sometimes the scratch or dent can not be removed without compromising the evenness of the surface, which is true of deep dents or scratches. Sometimes if the case is stained, the removal of the flaw would look worse than leaving it
We've made some minor changes to the design of the ClimaCase/ClimaStand over the years. As a result, we have some older versions on the shelf
Examples include but are not limited to: Discontinued size - our previously offered 5 3/4" depth for electric guitars has been replaced with 7" depth for both acoustic and electric guitars; Door frame - 2" width door frame changed to our current 1 3/4"
Sometimes we try out woods and the end result was not quite what we expected. After a while, we remove these from inventory on the website and keep them set aside for sales like this

Back splayed outward on the back of the case due to improper hanging
Splaying measures approximately 1 1/4" in diameter
Can be fixed with some carpenter's glue, which will get the surface even but will have permanent cosmetic flaws; however, if used as a wall mounted ClimaCase, the flaws will never be visible
Used at Sweetwater's Gibson Fest and has holes drilled on the bottom of the inside so they could mount to a table during the fest (holes will be filled with a matching 1/2" wood plug)
Electric depth no longer offered making these discontinued inventory
$500
Glass broke during shipping and scratched, marred, or dented the interior of the case
String Swing nut are old style T-nuts instead of new brass inserts
2" door frame instead of new 1 3/4"
The bottom left corner was damaged at the same time during shipping, so we applied some carpenter's glue in the crack to stabilize and had to round the lower corner over to eliminate the large dent on the edge. At the same time, we made the lower right side match. Lacquer was sprayed over the modifications

Very minor cosmetic flaws
Electric depth no longer offered making these discontinued inventory
$700, reduced from $750
Very small dent in the middle back of the top piece, which will become unnoticeable when mounted at proper height for wall models
UV glass already installed, meaning it cannot be removed and is considered in the cost. Typically this is a $150 upgrade.
Previously had a Powered LED light strip installed, meaning a 1/2" hole in the back right corner of the case used for exiting the wires for the strip currently has a U-shaped 1/2" plug. If upgraded to included the light strip again, this would be reused and if not then hole would be filled with a full 1/2" plug (no U-shape cut out).
1 3/4" door frame with coved handle
$1,000
Small dent on back of right edge
Additional medium size dent on left side middle
Both dents are very hard to notice unless looking for them and would be sanded and finished with a new coat of lacquer making them nearly invisible
$800
Glass broke into the case during shipping causing several scratches, dents, or small gouges
No structural issues
$650
Amazing hard flame maple with tight figure
Pristine condition, no cosmetic flaws
Older style with 2" door frame with AR logo on outside. Door also has coved door instead of drilled out for knob
Keyed cam lock already installed
UV glass already installed
$950
No cosmetic flaws, case is 100% as good as new inventory with the exception of the brand on the outside of the 1 3/4" door
We pulled this into second hand inventory because the cherry wood had some darker tones and different patterns than normal. The wood has also darkened further to a deep red, as all cherry does, from the time on the shelf.
$850
No cosmetic flaws, door was cracked during shipment and returned to us for fixing. The crack was professionally repaired, sanded over, and re-lacquered. The flaw is virtually unnoticeable and the door is 100% fully functional.
As with all wood that is glued together, the joint is actually stronger than the wood itself. If we replaced the door, we would be putting this into normal inventory, so therefore this is only discounted slightly.
The remainder of this case is cosmetically and functionally brand new. The door exhibits some beautiful flame figure in the upper right hand side.
$1,000
Beautiful figure, hard curly maple exhibits tighter, 3D flames than its soft curly maple relative
2" door frame with AR logo on outside
Had been previously mounted to a base, so there are holes on the outside of the bottom piece from the screws used to attach base
String Swing T-nuts were replaced with new brass inserts. Small holes around the hole on the back of the case from the prior T-nuts
UV glass already installed
Very small crack in the lower left corner on the inside of the case. Crack does not extend all the way through the 3/4" back to the outside, meaning the air tightness has not been compromised and it's purely cosmetic
$825
Damaged by some impact during shipping, likely by the fork on a fork lift
Impact occurred on the back of case and splayed the case on the inside slightly, with about a 1 3/4" diameter splay
Once the instrument is placed into the case, the damages would be mostly concealed by the neck of the instrument when looking at the case from straight on
Minor lacquer scratches that don't go through to the wood surface
2" door frame instead of new 1 3/4"
$550

We applied a Cherry red stain from StewMac to the case after applying a black stain and sanding back. This process is nearly identical to how PRS guitars are finished
The door and base were both stained in ebony stain only to come up with a one-of-a-kind ClimaStand
