I just ordered all four variants from AliExpress. Fingers crossed that they all have the “Pedestrian” sticker.

What do you expect might happen to it up there?

Out of curiosity what was the total cost for those 4, after shipping?

Out of curiosity what was the total cost for those 4, after shipping?

Total: $10.78 US (free shipping). Someone has a Pedestrian Cob for sale on eBay right now for $9.99 with $5.50 shipping; while the eBay purchase would guarantee I get a pipe with the desired sticker, I figured it would be worth the gamble to order four pipes from AliExpress that match Mike’s pipe pics and inventory codes before spending almost fifteen bucks on the one pipe on eBay.
