Ahhh so you're the winner ::
I was watching this pipe until the price passed what I was hoping to spend. You still got an awesome deal and I would have paid more if I hadn't spent so much as of late. I have another old don carlos and absolutely love it! Mine is very very light for its size. Hope you enjoy it!
Indeed, I am....and for a most reasonable price on a DC. This is my first by Mr. Sordini and I've always wanted to own on of his pipes. Can't wait to light it up.
here is another one that may or may not have an original stem... either way I find yours to be a nicer color combo
