Welcome from Florida(originally Boston). I ugest you buy a nice new pipe for your next purchase. Either a 100.00 plus Savinelli. A 100.00 or so Winslow and a hundred or so Winslow. Don't buy a cob and don't buy a shit basket pipe. Learn how to smoke flakes from the get go and jump into the deep end of the pool from the beginning. You are a nNYer, don't forget it.

Welcome from Toronto. Are you in the city? I have a friend that is there frequently and I’m trying to line up a B&M that I can order tobacco and have him pick up and mule home for me. Can you recommend any good stores?

Hello and great to meet you all. I'm from the New York area and I've been enjoying pipes for about a year now. I feel the hobby has rewarded me with such a good deal of relaxation and joy in that time. I have about a dozen estate briars in my rotation that I continue to add to. I'm very fond of older Comoy's and Orlik pipes. I mainly smoke burley and sweet virginias but have been regularly cellaring a variety of tins new and old as my palate adapts. I first became acquainted with pipe smoking many years ago from my friend's father. He had a pipe rack in his car and we all thought it was pretty ridiculous. Now I drive around dropping my poor pipes in the cup holder and feel bad about mistreating them. I'm happy to finally get involved in the community and I know I'll learn a lot from you all.
Welcome from Connecticut. I am aware of a pipe club in NYC. There is also the Hudson Valley pipe club that has a nice holiday dinner.
