    P&C Doubles Prices on Esoterica Bags

    At that point, duckfat, you're talking about two things not related to the above problem I outlined of real-time inventory vis-à-vis our shopping cart, though it's seemingly so. And here I really must apologize if I'm hijacking this thread. The two issues you mention are related to 1) credit...

    P&C Doubles Prices on Esoterica Bags

    I don't really want to weight in on this issue, per se, but I would like to mention something, and I hope y'all will excuse me if I veer off for just a moment. I've heard this said on this forum a handful of times now (and on this thread, I think, and another one that's hanging out) and I feel...

    Tobacco Casings & Toppings...?

    +1 coalsmoke. The above written description by Pease on Union Square references top-flavorings; there's no mention of casing, which is another process entirely. By no means am I an expert on processing pipe tobacco, but I have had the chance to tour Lane, Mac Baren, C&D, and Sutliff, and what...

    Capstan & Three Nuns

    jiminks, I would have liked to see Three Nuns come back as a Virginia-Perique as well, but I figure what with blends like Escudo and OGS out there I'm pretty well taken care of. Besides, I love the Three Nuns blend as it is now. I'm sorry to hear that your notifications aren't working. PM me and...

    Capstan & Three Nuns

    cigrmaster, thanks for the feedback. When we carried over our new-and-improved shopping cart a few months back, we had a few glitches to address with the notification system. We got it fixed right quick.

    Capstan & Three Nuns

    pitchfork, we announced this early so that customers could sign themselves up for an 'in-stock notification alert' when they do hit our doorstep. Also, we couldn't keep it a secret much longer with all the rampant speculation. So we figured it was best to make an announcement (which we haven't...

    Tobacco-Friendly South Carolina?

    Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach are not nearly as smoker friendly as they were a couple of years ago. But you can still smoke in the bars. Though some bars don't like pipes and cigars. Stupid, I know. Little River, on the other hand, is still pretty friendly. There's even a few restaurants...

    Attn: Programmers - Open position at Smokingpipes.com/Laudisi

    Guys, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics states that for our area (Little River, SC,) $45K annually is quite competitive. Paired with an awesome health plan and a really nice EOY Bonus, we think that an offer that straddles the middle depending on experience is an attractive one. A killer...

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

    I also didn't mind that Radagast was plopped into the plot of the film so much, however, I wasn't too keen on his depiction. Tolkien stated that of the Istari Gandalf was the least fair and most aged to look upon. In the movie, Gandalf looked handsome next to Radagast, who actually looked...

    Breaking in/Resting?

    kris, don't kill yourself over it. Smoke it as often as you like. In time, the honeymoon will be over and it will get a proper rest once in awhile. Like others have said, you should be able to smoke it pretty frequently at first. Just don't keep up a habit of five bowls a day in the same pipe...

    The Making Of MacBaren Roll Cake

    I was there a couple of weeks ago. It does smell wonderful. I even got to see them make their roll cakes... it was sort of like watching someone roll a giant cigarette.
