I love the stem--that's why I bought it. $10 at an antique store. It's a really big bowl. I got a little dizzy smoking C&D Billy Budd yesterday. :laugh:
 
Also at the end of the show yesterday I picked up an Ardor Urano squat Rhodesian for 60 bucks.

It was listed at 80 and nobody took it. I picked it up and the seller said 70. I didn't even have time to take a breath to answer and he dropped it to 60. I asked if he was sure about that and he said he'd throw in a key fob pipe stand with it as well.

Someone needs to teach him how haggling works. :lol:
 
I still can't believe I got those three pipes for 220. The Ashton and the Ardor were steals.



Haha, I know. I was flabbergasted. It felt like a scene from a movie or TV show where a guy doesn't know how haggling works.

No doubt, that Rhodesian is awesome looking!

Looks like you have the golden touch. Who needs ebay with the deals you're picking up!

I also sold a bunch of my pipes to Smoking pipes and got a decent amount for my account. Now I get to make a really nice tobacquisition.
