Another New Altinay Meer

[AJL67]

Ever bid on a pipe that seems 9 out of 10 stars and have your bid be the only one, so you start wondering why? I bid on this Altinay and literally was the only bid on it, there are plenty of crappy meerschaum out there with lots of bids on them, i mean really crappy ones and for about the same price and some even more. Well if i get it and it's a box of chalk dust i know!

Someone did try to snipe it at the end but i was still one dowa over them, so i feel better than someone else tried to grab it.

I almost bid on that one. Decided I want something more stylized. I hope you enjoy it!

I have a few figural, a Altinay poker with dragon motif, the D.P. Ehrlich billiard, so this one is rounding out my small collection. Oh and the large Ali skull but think I'm going to sell that one.

Can't say that I've seen an Altinay that caught my interest, but you got a really good deal on that one.

That is my Altinay you just purchased.
@AJL67

I'll try to get it shipped Tuesday after the holiday.
Thanks!

I saw that one and was thinking about. A reasonably priced beautiful meer from a reputable maker and previous owner. I’m so glad to hear about eBay experiences like this, and to know y’all are both a part of this forum, too!
