   I love that it has 7.50 shipping. Just strikes me as funny...somebody pays 1125 buckeroos for that sumbitch and then, oh crap! I forgot that I needed to pay for shipping!

    Not in my budget for the forseeable future. I just can't justify spending 2 months rent on something that may smoke like crap.

    Think of all the other pipes that person could have bought with that amount of money!

    i'm with Bubba, I'd rather have a pipe rack on the wall with 64 pipes on it for that kind of money.

    Hold onto the pipes, I think I'd build up my tobacco stock pile with that $1200. Besides, I'd light that shiny new smoker up and then it would break when I went to clean it.... just my luck!!

    Her work is gorgeous but, I don't care for the type of pipe she does. Iam more into traditional styles.

    If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

    True, it probably will be a great smoker, but I am with some of the other posters here in that I could get a ton of tobacco for that price. Talk about your TAD attack.

    If I were going to spend a lot of money on a pipe it would either be japanese or something classy and somehwat understated in black (despite how pretentious the may make me look) like this

    I like the pipe... looks kinda like a driver or whatever golfers call those wooden clubs.
    Like Directshot and a few other posters above, I'll blow my money on tobacco instead.

    There is an old George Carlin joke: "Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?"

    IT is no different in buying pipes and tobacco.

    Pipes are like anything else. If it is worth the price to YOU. Then it is worth the price. I have books that no one else I know of would give a nickle for that I paid heavy dollars for. I see it as being all your point of view.
