MacQueen PAD

[uberam3rica]

I really want a MacQueen. I'm debating on whether or not to buy it from them though. I go back to school May 7th, and will be there for 1 term, then its summer break. So If I bought it now, I'd probably have it by the time I got back. That being said, if anyone has a MacQueen pipe they want to get rid of, let me know

I've learned from some previous threads, that it may take as many as four terms, if you're lucky, two.

I say Call up P&C to see if they could order what you want FOR you.
They may get the package a little faster than you would? Maybe company orders take priority with MacQueen pipes?
Just a thought.

I might have it in 4 months. I don't expect it right when I get back

I had one and sold it. Trust me, you're not missing out on much.

i bought my MacQueen from a guy on ebay. last i checked he still had more of them to sell and the shipping doesnt take nearly as long obviously. i have only been able to smoke mine a few times, but from the few times that i have, it has smoke very well.

I got the one bigvan sold. What can I say, its a pipe. I will say the bowls get hot no matter how slow you smoke them and I noticed the draft hole on mine will not permit a pipe cleaner to go in it without taking the bowl off. So there is that. And there were tool marks on the bowl from when they drill pressed the bowl. It doesn't keep it from smoking but for what they sell them for you would have figured a bit more quality control.
I will say they smoke great all the way to the bottom of the bowl. And they look awsome as what probably cought your eye. No difference between it and other church wardens though in my book. And no I am not considering selling it. I use it when I do pirate and mideval reinactments.

It's no green peterson (lol) but THIS is kind of what I think of when I think "Churchwarden"

 

[tokerpipes]

Doesn't that pipe come with a CW stem and a standard stem?

 

[jcsnaps]

@tokerpipes, the Stanwells can come with both long and short stems. My Stanwell HCA smokes nice either way.

Brog makes a couple different churchwardens that are nice smoke well and are not expencive.

Everybody knows I am the churchwarden freak. I have to have everyone I see. I ordered my MacQueen back in November from a person on EBay. The pipe came in one week, he had it in stock but, the stand and tamper came two days ago, 5 months. They must be hiring 3rd graders to build these stands. Sand makes all over it and one of the pins that hold it to the base has no glue and I had to repair it. The pipe is not to par with others I have, with tool marks and a bad stain job on the stem. It smokes OK, draws well and as stated gets hot quick but, the stem is so rough inside it is hard to clean. It looks nice from afar, now on the stand, but I would not smoke it every day, it would die a quick death I think from the heat. As a novelty pipe it could be better but it is what it is, a novelty and has a bit of cool factor in it. I have it and will keep it just for that fact.

I would pass on macqueen I have been waiting 6 months on one pipe and they will not answer my emails even though they have my money.
