Anyone keep their eye on Craigslist? I just picked up a really nice gentleman's entire collection because he became ill and had to give it up. I'm very excited to say the least . . . although I do feel very bad for him that he had to give up this glorious hobby (he is doing better physically though thank God!).

I check occasionally. You really have to sift thru the paraphernalia, water pipes, etc. I use the "Tempest" search program. I never hit any gold, but will check if I'm bored (just checked now for my area, a few pipe racks, the rest was drug stuff).

When I first began acquiring pipes, I did a Craigslist search. The guy delivered this to me. Total cost: $100

I spent some money getting the electronics working again, but not bad for $100.


Here it is now...

Thanks! Some guy had bought a storage unit that was filled with old retail store fixtures and seemed excited that I'd give him a hundred. No idea what Dunhill was. So now and forever onward, I do Craigslist searches for "store fixtures"

I did hooboy. Although I expressed in my post how sad I was that he had to give up the hobby and how well he is doing now! And I was then and am now genuine when I said that. So, I am not quite sure what you are trying to imply? I hope when that day comes for me I am able to pass on my collection to someone who will enjoy it as much as I will and make some money to boot.

Incredible score deuce!! :worship:
...you acguired a very sick person pipe and tobacco collection????
If you are no longer going to be smoking, do you sell it all or let it gather dust?
My wife has instructions on what to do if this happens but I would hope that I could do it before she has to.

I have sold pipes on there before and had great luck. I have more to sell in the future and will probably use them. It is a good way to get someone local.

Typically there is nothing there, but its worth a look once in a while.
Deathmetal, I don't listen to that type of music but I have to confess I have played your song linked above about 12 times and get scared everytime...but just can't seem to stop listening. LOL
