Picked up these three estate pipes from Reborn Briar a few weeks back and have been enjoying the heck out of them.
Parker Super Bruyer
Hardcastle Special De Luxe
Dr Boston (Butz Choquin) Dragon
The pipes were (I think) reasonably priced, very nicely restored and delivered quickly -- given the distance between Jolly Olde England and Western Canada.
Lots of talk on the forums about Hardcastle and Parker and the connection (or lack thereof) to Dunhill, but they do seem to my newbie eyes to be good quality and they are definitely good smokers. The same for the Dr Boston.
