Huge Pipe Collection I Heard About

[voorhees]

Yesterday my co-worker who had to run a print job off site late yesterday as our printer was down at our location. While at the location he noticed a room with a WALL full of all kinds of pipes. He said everything from peace pipes to modern shaped pipes. He guessed about 2000 pipes!! I asked him why didn't he call me? Take a picture? I would have jumped in the car just to see this collection.

But, now I know. I now have to figure out some way of seeing these pipes.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

 

[voorhees]

I know right?!

It was obviously a trip in an official capacity, so he must know where it is, or have some documentation. May be he is bullshitting you because he knew it'd give you a chubby.

We were in a situation to print something and through connections found this business who had comparable equipment. Finding this collection was a fluke through the circumstances. My co-worker spoke to the guy and the pipes had belonged to his father. At some point he made the comment that "there is no value in a pipe someone else drooled in" 8O

What a foolish thing to say....however some people do feel this way.

 

[cmdrmcbragg]

Yeah, my girlfriend thinks their gross, especially that I buy estates. "Why would you want that? That's gross. Somebody else used them." She thought my pipe smoking would be a phase ... then she found out about my cigar humidor the other day when I was doing maintenance on it.
You must find this collection. It is your destiny.

A rare collection of pipes. That will be quite a find. Don't give up. Keep on looking.

I've never understood why some people consider an estate pipe being gross. After all, when you go to a restaurant you're using eating utensils that have literally been in hundred upon hundred of mouths.

Not to mention sex, unless you're both virgins...

Can’t speak for ae1pt, but please... I’m EXTRA virgin (cept on weekends and holidays).

 

[foggymountain]

Your arguments do make sense, but I still have no interest in used pipes. The idea that a dead guy smoked them seems ghoulish to me.

 

[phil67]

Estate pipes does not necessarily connotate that the pipe(s) belonged to someone who is deceased. I simply consider an 'estate' pipe as a used pipe(s) such as are sold by many here, on eBay and also those that are sold by many of the online retailers.

Hey foggy-

I don't think a dead guy can smoke anything, let alone a pipe!! :rofl:

 

[phil67]

^^ I failed to catch that! lol

I've heard of entire collections being lost to the dustbin because family members did not understand the value of a bunch of dirty old pipes. It's your duty to rescue this collection.

If all you had to go by was my Grandpa's pipes you'd understand. Yuk!

That and family members thinking they have a goldmine in a couple of cheap Tyrol curio pipes Dad got during a military hitch in Germany. 8O

Screw the pictures, give us the address so we can rob the guy and his gross drooled in pipes.

 

[dochudson]

you could just drive over and ask the guy about them.. if he has them on the wall he must not be concerned about showing them.

 

[ocpsdan]

Heck, the worst thing that happens is he says no...

 

[fnord]

Foggy:
Most of us here would go Old Testament Abraham and sacrifice that first born kiddo to get to your lovely Dunhills.
Would I smoke one of your "estate" burners after you've escaped this earthly coil? Oh, hell yes.
But ghoulish?
Not in the least.
I'd smile every time I lifted that pipe up to my cake hole and remembered all of your wonderful posts and ever quotable bon mots.
Jason, the best of luck to you in tracking down those pipes.

Every day the surgeons at our hospital use instruments that have been used on thousands of patients and inserted into places more intimate than a mouth. They just have to been cleaned properly first.
