As I've mentioned elsewhere I took delivery of my new pipe today, and have only just had chance to give it a good look over. I find that on full inspection the stem base is not perfectly aligned with the shank, meaning that half its circumference is proud of the shank (probably by about .5mm). Hardly noticeable until you look closely, but definitely something that can be felt.
Now this pipe cost me a measly £10, but I would like to ask if I have grounds for notifying the seller, or is this typical of budget pipes and something I should just be accepting?
