Browsing through smokingpipes.com, I came across a few pipes around $4000. This got me thinking about how much I could justify spending on a pipe. Currently my most expensive pipe purchase has been around $200. I'm blessed to have a career that supplies me with a solid salary, but I still live by a strict budget and control my urge to buy many of the nice pipes I see and want. I can't help but think of the many other ways I could spend/invest my money. Right now I feel like I wouldn't be able to justify buying any pipe over $500, although for all I know this may change in the future.
So where do you draw the line? Could you justify the purchase of a $4000 pipe even if your finances allowed it?
