Congratulations Frank,
Not bad at all... I particularly like the blue pipe.
I have always liked the look of the Dr.G colored pipes.
I have seen an Avocado colored pipe that I wanted bad.
(I'm probably going to catch h-e-double Q for that.)
I think the stand is probably worth what you paid for the lot.
Good show old man!

Nice snag buddy. I too like coloured pipes. I am rather surprised that more pipe makers don't do coloured stains. I love the Peterson greens and reds. The old solid coloured pipes have a certain campy spot in my heart no doubt, but I would love to see more coloured stains out there.
Get ready once you get your first pipe win on eBay you just keep buying. I catch myself at least once a day looking for pipes and convincing myself that I need a new pipe. Right now I'm trying to control my PAD and stock up on some tobacco. I figure my pipes aren't going anywhere soon but who knows how long pipe tobacco will be in an affordable range. That being said I picked up a lot of 2 pipes yesterday lol.
Good score! I'm pretty sure you would find something in that lot to match any smoking mood you were in.
I wouldn't mind getting a some estate pipes to practice restoring, preferably ones like these Grabows that wouldn't represent a huge $ value if I botched it. Nice stand, too!

That's the ticket classicgeek -- practice restoration with those pipes, although they don't exactly look like clunkers. I'd say nice pick-up Frank. Maybe this'll start a new thing called e-BAD (e-Bay Acquisition Disorder.) Like Lawrence said, the stand is worth what you paid for the lot. Heck, if you cleaned up those pipes and resold them you'd have turned a profit!
Nice snag Frank!
That is a great price! It is like paying less than $2.00 per pipe and getting a free stand or you could look at it like getting a stand for $15.00 and 8 free pipes. Way to go!
