Dr Plumb Win on Ebay

[4dotsasieni]

Just won this Dr Plumb Quintex unsmoked pipe for $47.90 on Ebay -- Mine was the only bid! Where were you guys? I expected a battle!

I am really going to have to look into this ebay thing more.

Congrats on the new pipe my money was tied up in my TAD purchases today... No funds for new pipes.

That is one nice Dr.plumb pipe, never seen one so fancy.

Can you put her back on Ebay, so we can have a do-over?

Very neat, love the shape and military stem. Fine shape to boot!

Gah! How did I miss this? I just bought a few estates from Ebay. I must have been distracted and didn't see this one. It's a beaut!

Thanks for all the kind comments, guys -- I was specifically searching for Dr Plumb when this Ebay item popped up. They're hard to find in the U.S., and a lot of UK sellers will no longer ship ANY tobacco-related products to this continent for fear of legal consequences.
By the way, as far as I know, they are the only company that has a line of pipes specifically for dentally-challenged folks or denture wearers. The entire line can be viewed at:

Love a good spigot - and that is one for sure. Congrats.

The more I read, the more I realize how little I know. What an interesting hobby (and education about it.)

The pipe arrived today, some minor fills as expected; filled it up with some Pete's Irish Whiskey and enjoyed it very much. This is the first time I've left a stinger in, since it looked like it would take brute force to remove it, and other than having to wipe a bunch of brown goo off it after the bowl was finished, I've got no complaints. The smoke was dry, and the full flavour came through. And unlike some of the newer Petersons, there's no stain residue to deal with.
So, if you see a Dr. Plumb available at a good price, I would say, go for it! The Quintex model is a nice spigot alternative.
