I have been hearing alot of these three brands and was wondering if they are all in the same price range (cheap) and if they are good smokes. I thought that Kaywoodies were budget pipes until I recently saw one for $90 at smokingpipes.com. I know that $90 may be a budget pipe to some pipe smokers but to me a budget pipe is a drug store pipe or similar. I.e. Dr. Grabow's $25 line and such. I also see them go unsold for $10 on ebay and wonder if they are just crud pipes. Just wondering if you fellas could enlighten me on these brands.
