So, the unsmoked Barling with the frankenpipe stemming went back up for auction with a slightly different result from the first auction. Instead of $740, the pipe went for this:

I gave up on this pipe for $730 at the last auction and miraculously got it at yesterday's auction for $86! I don't even believe this is true!

我在上次拍卖中以 730 美元的价格放弃了这根烟斗,而在昨天的拍卖中以 86 美元的价格奇迹般地得到了它!我什至不相信这是真的!

Unknowingly ? He's f.....g Pipedreamerdave !!
Don't know him from a hole in the ground. But I see that he's sold a lot of pipes over the past 10 years. Is he a fixer, like Great Estates, and Secondhandpipes, or just a seller, like Treasurepipes. You can be a trader, and not know much about what you're trading. Then again, you can be a fixer and still not really know a lot about what you're selling. Most people really don't know all that much about pipes.

Certainly worthy of note was last week's 1926 Parker magnum billiard. Notwithstanding considerable stem oxidation, its rim, nomenclature and chamber suggest it was an unusually sound example of an exceedingly rare pipe from Parker's early glory days as a sub-brand of Dunhill. Given the typical going price for Dunhill magnums, $1000 was quite a decent deal.

Speaking of impressive Dunhill magnums (selling Sunday for an impressive $3850, although clearly the top bidder would have been happy to pay more--judging from the bidding history), this one in a ventage case is a beaut.
