Dunhills aren't known for their huge draw, so don't look for that. 325? It's a Dunhill, that makes it irrational on an epic scale. If you think it's good, it is good.
I won't tell you how much I paid for a birth year root briar that struck my fancy. It would make yours seem like the deal of the century.
Regardless, have fun.

I paid 550 for a ODA Paneled shell, colcot reading your posts IMHO you need to buy a group 6 or a ODA, good size but you will pay 5 to 7 hundred dollars, but I believe you will be happy with it, I think I saw an ODA on e-bay thatcoopersark had the old cajun
Pull the trigger. just about the things that you'd spend $350 on that won't be around in a week. Groceries? Short 3 day vacation? Dinner at Le Bec Fin? The Dunhill will last longer, give you greater pleasure and make you happier. No brianer- go for it before someone else here does and then posts picturers of "your" pipe.
Went back to e-bay it just sold for 223$, bent shell ODA that was a good deal, I believe it was a 1978. The old cajun
old cajun, I was watching that oda, reason it went so cheap was because the bowl was out of round. I personally would not spend 325.00 for a group 5.
Colcolt, I could have bought an ODA from the 70's for around 300.00 recently. I would keep looking if it is a Dunhill you have your heart set on. Go group 6 or ODA, they are out there for 325.00 or less.

I decided I'm gonna ask for a birth year Dunhill for my birthday. As for my money, I'm getting that group Storient Meer (cuz I'm a sucker for Meerschaum) and a TRG next.
colcolt, this is the one I was talking about.

I have several of what I call my 15-20 minute pipes and was more or less looking for one a bit larger to give a longer smoke and a size 6 or like the ODA size cajun mentioned would fit the bill. Of course, as you go up in size so does the price be they new or estate pipes. A good size Upshall isn't out of the question either as they are superb pipes from all I've read.
colcolt, you can get a large Upshall for much less and they smoke as well if not better than Dunhill's in my opinion. You should also look at a large Ardor. The one I just got is one of the best smoking pipes I have ever owned and I have owned some 800.00 plus pipes. I will send you a pm with a couple of links to look at.
