So I have been to a few sites on the web and I was wondering where you guys like to look around for pipes, baccy and other accessories. Also I am looking for a churchwarden that is at least 13+ inches with a curved stem. If anyone has some leads please let me know. Thanks all.
Where do you find your pipes online?

+1 on the above.
Also remember to always check if the pipe pictured is in fact the pipe you will receive. Only a few of the on-line stores mention this and that to me is a big factor when choosing a pipe online.
just me 2 cents

Ebay and Smokingpipes.com is where I get most of my pipes.
http://www.smokingpipes.com/search/pipesearch.cfm is a good way to isolate what you're looking for. The length options only go up to 9+ but at the bottom of the page of the specific pipe are the exact measurements.

+1000! This is very important to me which is why I don't purchase from some sites.
Smokingpipes.com, Alpascia.com, Cupojoes.com, Smoke-king.co.uk, Paylesspipes.com, and Smoke.co.uk are my go to sites.
Http://www.wvsmokeshop.com is one of the few I know of that seems to take individual photos of each pipe they sell.

I do a lot of my pipe shopping on smoking pipes as well. I've had mess with returns on pipes and cigars website from poor angled pictures and bad descriptions.

I live in an area with a city and suburban population over Million+ people (not to mention Chicago just down the road) and to be honest yes I have a few pipe shops available but "only a few". AND it's hard to find a pipe at the right price locally not to mention driving around looking for that special or different pipe you had in mind. On-line I think is by default where we can find these little gems. Tobacco, accessories, supplies (and cigars) and that surprise pipe find you hadn't noticed before - easy enough and hey, come on, we all want to support the local B&M anyway. I deal mostly with smokingpipes on line, friendly, easy returns (I study the pictures, I receive the pipe If I like it I keep it, but I think I have just as many returns as buys - when they see an order from me they must roll their eyes) But all said Good people and like instant emails. And I can do it in my shorts smoking my favorite backy!
Aristocob. I'm all about cobs.
Cupojoes is great, too.

cigar international has pipes. Although I have only purchased cigars and accessories there, they do have a pipe section. I have placed an order for 5 different pipe tobaccos and two cobbs that are on the way. But I have never had a problem with this company and have placed an order about once every one to two years for the last ten years. I will probably buy my next nice pipe there as well.
I've bought,and smoked, E.A.Cary pipes since 1965. I've never found a pipe that smokes or is a dry as a Cary pipe.
Oh, yes Cary pipes are NOT filter pipes. What looks like a filter is a moisture barrier for a dry smoke.

The funny thing is that Cigars International and Pipes & Cigars are owned by the same company. I find that you get better deals at P&C.
+1 for cupojoes.com
All of the above, plus forum sales threads. If you buy directly from the maker, as opposed to a shop, you can also get a lot of pipe for your money as there is no mark-up.
