We’re finalizing a week in Denmark near Copenhagen this upcoming New Year. A pilgrimage to The Danish Pipe Shop is on the itinerary. But for serious estate bargain-hunting, what other shops (pipe, antique, etc.) could be worthwhile visits? Thx.

The words Bargain and Copenhagen are rarely in the same sentence but you might get lucky. Ya never know. Id hit various antique and second hand shops to see if something pops up.
Point certainly taken. Odds of some place in Copenhagen not appreciating it’s got a classic Eltang aren’t for a betting man. But for a once in a lifetime visit I’ve gotta ask. And like the man said, you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

Id imagine that the city has an online sales platform. In France we have a craigslist sort of thing. You could dig and see of there is one. You could check listings in advance. I know Germany has some. I would assume Denmark does as well.

Google Chrome Translate isn’t the most stable in the iOS app but that’s kind of intriguing. I didn’t see dozens of Preben Holms listed out of everyone’s grandfathers’ attics, but like I said, intriguing enough to fiddle around some more. 👍
