And I Raised My Mighty Staff....

[addamsruspipe]

and the clouds faded and the waters parted bringing sunshine back to the world. Or at least that what it felt like. It has seemed that every lot I bid on ebay got sniped out from under me. Did not matter what kind of pipes, I lost. Felt like I was getting close punching my screen. Just wanted some estate pipes to work on(it's my stress relief), keeps me out of the straight jacket. Then was on craigslist regarding a chair of Grandma's I am selling, and there it was. A light shinning in the distance, glorious curves, beautiful colors, just calling to me. And all for a $100. 16-Kaywoodie, 4-Mastercrafts, 2-The Pipe, 4-Medico, 4-unknown. Glory BEEEEEEEEE

Hoopdydo!

Did this auction close in the middle of the night or something?

 

[addamsruspipe]

Nope craigslist in Albuquerque. Rescued me from a slew of outbid auctions.

This will keep you busy for a while!

Well done, indeed. It is cheap entertainment and good stress relief. Then you get a great pipe out of it too!

I'm curious about that one amber stemmed military mount Apple? Does it have nomenclature?

Great deal, by the looks from here! Kaywoodie's are definitely held in high regard.

I've got MasterCraft's and Kaywoodie's. I tend to smoke the MasterCraft's more. Stinger aversion.

That one is a Kaywoodie Standard Imported Briar 042. The logo on the stem is in black which makes it hard to see until you get a close up. The ironic part is that only five or six them are shapes that I really like. So will restore most of them and take them to my local Stag and they sell them for me.

Very good deal, the only problem I see is they're all....straight pipes
