ANY HELP WOULD BE AWSOME…

[slugbug]

I was giving my grandfathers smoking pipes & i am trying to get info on them & possiable value for the lot.
This is so outside my wheel house i have been into sports cards for over 30 years & i know enough about collection to never try to sell anything unless you do your research but i’m really clueless when it comes to this there is 24 of them & a multi able pipe holder i’ll post pics & if anyone is willing to take the time to help me learn weather or not these have value would be great. Thank You Thomas M
( will do second post with remaking pics).

None of these appear to be high grades, but that doesn't mean there's no value. There are a couple of sites that will give you information about your pipes:

Pipedia

pipedia.org

Pipes: Logos & Estampilles - Logos & Markings

This website displays stampings on shank and stem of pipes. About 3000 brands are referenced.

www.pipephil.eu

To get an idea about values, use eBay's "advanced" search to look up pipes that you have, and see what kind of money they brought in.

yeah this is really good, for example, ebay advanced search- type “kaywoodie fine line pipe”

on mobile app type filters and check , “completed/sold”

that one, for instance, is like 30ish

do for each one and all set. Other links sable provided are great resources too

presuming he passed? sorry for your loss as well. good luck with sale. No interest in taking up a pipe? i would love to have my dads pipes after he passed. My mom threw them out. i never thought i would smoke a pipe, but at 40 yoa, it appealed to me. you never know

Yep, good advice already given.
There are literally hundreds of pipe brands and thousands of seconds, and house named pipes....and within those brands there are different lines, of different quality. Giving prices is nearly impossible.
I don't see any there that will help you retire, but ebay is the only way to know for sure.
These all seem to be lower end factory made pipes. That doesn't mean they aren't good, many can be great. But mostly in the $5-$20 range if cleaned up and put on ebay.
With 24 pipes that could be a couple hundred bucks...or more.

Yep, same here.
My dad threw away all his dad's pipes. He wasn't a rich man, but with my luck they were a bunch of Patent era Dunhills, and family era Barlings.

Nothing high dollar, but all the pipes are in pretty good shape. They will all sell on ebay and make a bunch of pipe smokiers happy. I think dates range from 1940s into the 70s. I like the Mastercraft in particular.

Thank you i was thinking maybe sense i’ve got 23 of them & a wooden pipe holder with class center holds i think & pipes thought maybe listing the whole lot for around $500 that’s about $20 each roughly you think that mite interest any buyers ?

if im buying bulk lots of unrestored pipes, im shooting for like 5-10 each. and i think i pay too much lol. i would think like 175-250 ish. if you break everything up and fix/clean each pipe, you could probably do a lot more, but more work also. you never know though. Put a BIN on ebay etc and slowly reduce. maybe youll get a bite
