The previous bidder comes bad and tosses multiple bids out until he passes my bid or drives the cost up beyond his price. By sniping I quietly place my max bid and watch the auction...

    When is pipe tobacco too far gone to re-hydrate.

    I've read Where one can successfully re-hydrate tobacco and have seen where people have taken some very, very old tobacco and made it smoke able. But how old is too old? I've seen some whole twists of tobacco for sale and passed them up without a second thought. Then one day I began to think...

    I hate to say how much I paid for it, ok $8.00 :D I dug through a large basket for several minutes until I came across the BBB Diamond emblem so I grabbed it. It was well used and heavily crusted with cake so I figured it was at least a good smoker. Not much done other than getting...
