It’s a lovely pipe, but the $20.00 shipping really cracked me up!

That's the first time I've seen a $1500 chillum, not that I really look.
Nice toys, though.

Or, you could pay 456 times as much for a bit of metal that you can do NOTHING with except look at, and then only after driving to the bank where it's kept in a safe.
For a few minutes at a time.

Did I just see a second hand pipe for $11,500!?? I have made some extravagant purchases due to PAD recently but that is crazy.
I know, each to their own etc etc but I stand by my comment!

Yeah, I know. Pretty bad resale value. New, they go for around $30,000.

Or unless it's a 20 dollar gold piece...then it buys the same as 20 dollars used to buy prior to the last 105 years of devaluation by the "fed".

So, is the Federal Reserve Bank solely responsible for inflation?

No, it has required the cooperation of the politicians in their employ.

And the unions, and the wars, and the voters, and the banks, and yes, we the consumers, and the legal beagles, and well, just about every person/entity who uses money in some form or another.
If you come by an authentic $20.00 gold piece, in reasonable condition, I believe you will find it's value has far outstripped inflation. And, it you find an authentic, antique wooden nickel ... take it!

All very true Warren. But in spite of all of that, the so-called federal reserve system is just a giant scam IMO...one that makes ponzi schemes seem legitimate by comparison.
But that is a discussion that is way beyond the scope and rules of this forum, so I will leave it at that.
