Does Smoking Pipes List Old Pipes as New Pipes?

EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9)

I’ve Sort of been on the hunt for A Peterson, not sure which make or model. Waiting for something to catch my eye. Every time I get an email update from sp about new pipes I stock, I head over to the Peterson selection and feel like I’m just seeing the same old pipes listed as “fresh” every time.

maybe I’m tripping and they are in fact new pipes being listed?

They list all recently acquired pipes from the manufacturer as "Fresh".

This means that when they get in a new pipe from the manufacturer it is listed as "Fresh" regardless of how many of that particular model is already in stock. They do this because they photograph each individual pipe for the listings.

Got it. Thank you

Great. That's a question I've had for some time, about their meaning of 'Fresh', because I don't want to buy a pipe someone bought, didn't like and then returned.

Fresh pipes are broken down into new and estate. Some of the estates are also unsmoked.

Plus each listing is of the exact pipe so even if there are 37 Aran 999s there will be a separate listing for each one.
