    FS: 10 Fully Restored Petersons - 12/03/2025 Pre-Republic, DeLuxe, Goldblock, Clay system, Sherlock Homles, Black Meer, Captain Pete, Silver Cap

    After a couple of serious PAD attacks recently, I’ve decided to part with a few nice Petes. All pipes are fully restored and ready to smoke (I would still recommend cleaning the internals to your own standards before first use). The pipes are located in Germany, but I ship worldwide without...

    Help Dating a Silver Banded Genod

    When it comes to my pipe knowledge, French pipes are definitely the least researched ones. Any help with hopefully my first Genod would be really appreciated. I still can’t believe that it came in somewhat good condition - normally estate pipes bought from France look like they have spent a day...

    Parker High Grades - Root & Straight Grain

    I have been a fan of Parker since the beginning and I was surprised to see that they offered high grades as well. Being dunhill seconds, don't blocks like this belong to a dunhill line, even if it's not one of the higher grade ones?

    Coolest Savinelli Pipe I Have Seen So Far

    Ok time for a controversial opinion... I really don't like Savinelli as a brand.... Their low grade pipes are shit and overpriced ( Rossi are great because of the lower price) bit that's not why I don't like the brand... It's the high grades that are the biggest offenders - i have seen so many...

    Crazy Looking Lorenzo T.V. Pipe

    Although I am collecting only a couple of brands, I would love to ow at least one pipe from every brand. It's quite hard to find a special enough pipe from some of the budget brands, but this one is definitely the chosen one for Lorenzo. I decided to post it unrestored, because God only knows...

    Peterson POYs From a Decade Before Peterson Started Making POYs

    Ok this might be a bit of word play - yes Peterson started making Peterson POYs in 1997 but they have been making limited early editions which were very special and different from anything they offered in their catalog. I am pretty sure I mentioned this before but here is a reminder. As you can...

    Biggest Estate Pipes Lot Jackpot

    I was in the middle of doing an experiment, which I was planning to share here for science. The idea was to get a couple of buddies to let me use their address in ebay, so I could see and bid listings that wouldn't ship to Germany otherwise. After 30 days i wanted to compare what I got from all...

    Let's say that I've grasped the basics of dating Comoy's, but here I am running into some contradictions and unknowns.. London Made stamp points me to one era, while the font of the Comoy's to another... Also no hallmarks on the silver...

    PAD 3 New Ashtons but They All Have Something Weird About Them

    I think last week , I had a bit too much fun, reading all the crazy stories about Ashton's inconsistency when it comes to quality. I even dared to comment that the Ashtons I have are all perfect, not realizing I was just oiling up the back of the high horse i was sitting on😂 Soo let's skip to...
