That is one massive collection and a lot of meers

riptide · Dec 22, 2011

If only I had the cash.

Looks to me like he liked to collect them (Meers) but didn't smoke them too much.

I also spotted a "Jet Pipe" in there too.... I still miss mine... :crying:

Lots of goodies in that collection.

Might be fun for someone, with the funds.

brewshooter · Dec 22, 2011

Yeah, the per pipe price doesn't actually seem that bad. I'm not saying I'M going to buy them. I just blew my wad on those two meers.

jchaplick · Dec 22, 2011

very cool collection, the price seems high but for what it is its not bad, they all seem to be in very good shape

ace57 · Dec 22, 2011

Wow!

markw4mms · Dec 22, 2011

That's an impressive collection. Too bad I don't have the money to spare.

aussielass · Dec 22, 2011

Nice collection it surely is, but he/she is dreaming on the price they'll realise imo!

nsfisher · Dec 22, 2011

ya me thinks they better off to break the collection up into way smaller offers

withnail · Dec 22, 2011

I think the price is fair for what you get, but I do think they would have a lot more luck if they had split the lot into individual or small groups.

yoru · Dec 22, 2011

Fair price, but hard to sell it all at once, especially since it is 4 simple groups of pipes (more in less simple terms) that would be easier to sell, and probably yield more monies total.
Myself, I'd seriously consider buying a collection of just the bottom stuff (the bruyers)-- could actually afford half of them too. . .but the whole set? Not a chance I'm dropping 2 large.
Also, since when was the conversion to Canadian dollars such a small difference? I have books printed in the 80's/90's that say 9.99 US and 12.99 CA

Things are not like they used to be buddy the dollar basically aint worth crap in the global economy any more in comparison to the other major countries. If I remember correctly I think about a year back the CD was a couple cents higher than the USD

buckeye · Dec 22, 2011

Man,wish i had the cash.Very nice collection.

harrumphicus · Dec 22, 2011

I should get a meer at some point.. That Viking meer on P&C.com has me lusting, but I can't justify 145 dollars on a pipe just yet. Sometime, though.. it'll happen.

tobakenist · Dec 22, 2011

Thats a serious collection, some very old pipes amongst them.

boulder · Dec 24, 2011

They look well kept and should find a nice home. (damn kids are looking to make a killing)
I feel 1,500 buy-it-now would be fair for the lot. :puffpipe:

seakayak · Dec 25, 2011

The man presents a remarkable collection of high quality pipes. Had I both the cash and appropriate display space, I'd seriously consider an opening bid. Alas, I have neither. I do have a wife who would likely have me evaporated if I tried to enter the competition.

nsfisher · Dec 25, 2011

lol bout the same here seakayak, but now on second thought i got to ask myself a question. Would i enjoy all those pipes more than the company of my wife??? Hmmmm thats a difficult one

Did this guy like meers or what?
