That's one hell of a score! I think the Cumberland was born in 1980, so that's an early one...... Congrats!
I would have trouble poppin' that cherry.......... :wink:

That is a great buy though I would never buy another. I'm wondering however about that rough edge in the chamber bevel and swirls inside of the chamber. Reamed?
I don't know if it still applies anymore, but good ebay deals could alsways be found if you misspelled the words in the search bar. Sellers in a hurry to post things up made spelling errors and therefore their item wouldn't show up in searches, e.g. Volkswagon instead of Volkswagen.
Mis-spellings, fuzzy picures, inaccurate name listings, all lead to great deals on Ebay, albeit with a bit of risk.
The good news is your seller took returns, so that mitigates much of the risk.
I live an hour from Cumberland Maryland.I worked there with three restaurants for many years. We still have one right off I-68. I guess the Rocky Gap Casino is the main draw there now, and perhaps the Western Maryland Scenic railroad.

Delfest during Memorial Day week/weekend is probably the biggest draw of the year. My profile pic is from there, I am one of the "house" photographers for the festival. I really do love going back home. Anyone who loves Bluegrass and all the variations emerging, should check it out. Family friendly and amazingly clean, great music, good food... I love it. Thanks Al!
Gorgeous pipe!
I had a similar experience recently with a seller from Cairo on Etsy. Crummy photos and no feedback on Etsy but some on eBay where he had it listed as well. I took a small chance and got an smoked 1956 Tanshell billiard for $200.
