Hey everyone,
I'm sure most of you know that MM does a deal where you can get some rejects from production line inspection. I treated myself to this for a little self-gifting. The bag is $30 and shipping (within Missouri) was $8 (!!!). Overall, I am pleased. The differences are purely cosmetic and have no effect on smoke.
Has anyone else purchased this bag? What did you get?
4 Legends (2 straight, 2 bent)
1 Missouri Pride (straight. Has moderate cosmetic issues. It looks 'overly fuzzy.' Image below.)
1 Mizzou (The shank was broken in transit! And it is a pipe-specific stem! There's also a piece of plastic making it hard to replace. Oh well.)
1 Pony Express (straight)
1 Washington (bent)
1 Patriot (I was stoked. Virtually zero visual defects either!)
1 Diplomat (This thing is HUGE! You can't sit it down, it will tip over.)
Unfortunately, I did not get a 'Cobbit.' Or a MacArthur/General. Ah well.
Total value: 4*5.99+4.39+4.99+4.99+7.59+10.69+10.69 = $67.30. Not bad for 'MSRP' $30.
I also purchased a short stop which had a punctured shank (pic below. Can be solved with tape.) How ironic that I received a damaged product. I'm not complaining, MM forever.
