Won this Radice Sand Grain tonight and think I got a pretty good deal on it. Any Radice lovers who know a thing or two about them care to chime in on it? I know the pipes labeled "sand grain"aren't all that common and that it's pre 2009 bc it had no date stamp. Looks to be in good condition. Thoughts?

A great looking pipe and a heck of a value. I have a silk cut bent billiard of made by Radice in 2004 I believe and it's one of my favorites. It looks like wax sometimes, gorgeous. Congrats on your win and enjoy!

Thanks guys, i emailed the seller to find that it does not come with a box or pipe sock. I could care less about the box, but would like a Radice pipe sock, anyone have an extra one laying around that's in decent shape i could buy off of you?

layin, great looking pipe and I am sure it will be a great smoker for you. Over the years I owned over half a dozen Radice's and everyone smoked great. They are the closest pipe I have smoked to a Castello and for the money a great bang for the buck. I am sure you will love yours, congrats.

Thanks a lot, cigrmaster, i appreciate the comment. You wouldn't happen to have an extra Radice pipe sleeve laying around, would ya? Can't wait to try the pipe out and compare to the Castillo.

Grats! That's a great looking Radice. I got my first Radice back in February and it's become one of my favorite pipes. Enjoy!

Thank you all very kindly for the compliments on the pipe. I really didn't expect to win the thing but there was a few hours left on it with 2 bids and it was only at like 49 bucks, so I had to take a stab at it, right? I put in a max of 75 and didn't get a chance to look at my phone til hours later after it ended. The email was either going to start with "sorry" or "enjoy"; lucky for me it was the latter. Ebay is so weird like that sometimes. If you just stay on top of it, you find auctions that people just seem to forget about, especially with lesser known and less popular sellers. You just have to take a risk with them and hope they are honest legit people and not Kyle Black shitheads.
Now which one of you noble brothers of the briar would like to graciously donate/sell me a Radice pipe sleeve?
