They are a discount firm overall, but that's not to say that some items sell at market. I bought a Savoy Macassar humidor for $100.00 below market. Yes, the pipes are outrageously low. It's as if they don't want to bother with them, as they are a cigar firm, so they just throw them up on the site as an attention getter. Their prices on Nightcap and I believe 965 are bottom barrel, too.
There are so many people doing business in tobacco, pipes and cigars that it's hard to keep those offering discounts front and center. On this board the advertising is moderate to heavy. One look at an advert and your mind goes there. Hilands, Hilands, Hilands.

I bought a Peterson from them about a year ago. Not fancy, good service, and got what I paid for.
I know I shouldn't be buying more pipes as I am trying desperately to thin the herd for storage however...their prices are just too dang good.
Bought 2 family-era Sasieni 4-dots with town names for $23 apiece. When I called to order, they offered to send a few samples of their bulk English tobaccos (which are darn cheap) along with. They were kind and helpful over the phone and through email as well. I'll post pics when they get here.

I was under the impression this company was out of business.... I say this because my local B&M used to be highland cigars! The new owners were telling me how they bought the recipes and blend it by hand to their specs.... Am I being lied to?
But on the other hand, I much prefer "black gold plus" to their "black gold"
Snowflake is also a nice tobacco as well as Amber light (if you like burley)

Moreso then unrestored, mine still had ash and dottle left in the bowl.
Again im not complaining.
They sent some snowflake as a sample with my order. I smoked a bowl while working on my wife's car. Not too bad. I'm not a huge aro guy, but it was about on par with the PS bulk aros I've tried. The rest of it is sitting on my bar making my corner of the dining room smell fantastic.

I was just at the Hilands in Scottsdale last week. I asked Scott (the owner) about his house blends. He tells me that his father started them in 63 and they are the same blends with no changes. He gave me a super discount on a nice peterson pipe and samples to go along. My favorite so far is the Snowflake and I will be going back to pick up some more. Maybe another pipe too. Sweet looking store and very friendly staff.
