wow,makes my one purchased about 1 year ago for 100 Euros a bargain. It came with all the box papers and cleaner wire included but was slightly used. I managed to scorch the rim of my pipe the first time I used it due to lack of care.:(- paulfg

Old Meerschaum Stuck Tenon
many thanks, looking at the pictures it looks like I wont be able to move just the silver on the stem. Hopefully it may separate with smoking as you suggest.If not I will leave well alone and not force it for fear of breaking the amber stem- paulfg

nobody is forcing you to buy it at the inflated price.If you don't think it's worth it don't pay it.As you state it can be bought at reasonable price, just do the donkey work. Sometimes things are outside your price range,that is a fact of life.- paulfg
