How much?!?!
It is a rather pretty looking pipe.

 

[buckeye]

3000 so far

 

[zanthal]

I saw the $3000 bid, my question was one of incredulity.
Just need to sell my truck, then I might be able to bid.

ay carumba!
i really dont believe any pipe is worth that much (but like anything else, I suppose it is worth whatever someone is prepared to pay for it)...personally I think you can get better pipes than this for less than 1/10th of that bid....Dunhills are great pipes but they are not that much better than any other top class pipes out there

I'm sure it's a very nice pipe, but, let's face it, they're selling a name, not a superior smoking experience.

That is lovely, in my favorite shape, but out of my league. My dream Dunhill would be a bent billiard in my birthyear ('61), but the ones I've come across are still a bit dear for my blood.

37 bid >.

Yikes!!!! I would be willing to bet that after one smoke the value depreciates by no less than 50% so maybe it will be nothing more than a collectors item for a really affluent a dunhill collector. Cooper is smiling all the way to the bank with the commission on that one, GO Rob!!!! :worship:

Nice but not in this life time. That would be over 300 M&M Cobs.

 

[pentangle]

will place a sniper :wink:

 

[sherlock]

It is great looking pipe and if I had the money I would think about it.

 

[nsfisher]

just think of all the different baccy's u could buy for that $3000.00

 

[ssjones]

If I'm spending $3k, it better have a motor and two wheels....or parts of one...

 

[chero]

hows that saying go, there is a sucker born every minuet

 

[igloo]

Not even a thought of bidding on it . The pipe does not call to me in shape or grain .

 

[seakayak]

I'm with mlyvers as far as Charatan goes, but ain't no pipe worth 3K to me.

 

[jchaplick]

There are many many many things i would buy with three grand, Im more of the kind of guy that would easily drop that on a gun, if i like it, but a pipe? I dont like to pay more than 40 bucks per...

 

[recoilrob]

I have that same pipe, I probably paid $4-500 for it about 10 years ago. The only reason that one went for $3100 is because it was number 2 of 350 and at one time belonged to Richard Dunhill, Alfred's grandson.
If you really like that pipe keep an eye out on eBay, eventually one will come up for a reasonable price.

$100.00 will buy u one heck of a good pipe IMO and $2900.00 leftover for baccy
