Materials Pipes are Made With

[seamusjft]

Afternoon chaps. So I'm looking thru Amazon UK site at pipes and there are pipes that are described as durable make.

Has anyone had any experience with this "material"?

The only thing the pipes they sell on Amazon are good for is fancy dress.

Welcome to the forum.
Instead of Amazon you might want to look on Ebay UK. They have lots of pipes listed for sale in European countries.

Those durable pipes are Chinese made; tobacco chamber is metal and the rest is some kind of hard plastic, they cost about 3 bucks. Here is a durable pipe on Ebay, $6.95 including worldwide shipping http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marbleized-Tobacco-Smoking-Durable-Pipe-30101-/280896944807 Crazy to see 460 of them sold; people have no idea.
Stay away from pipes that say durable in the description.

Looks to god to be true .......l probably is lol

Yes stay away from anything like that.

Just read around here a bit and you'll get a good idea of what to look for and from whom.

you can get petersons on amazon but most of the stuff they have on there is junk or overpriced.

I won't recommend them but if you want a good smoking cheap pipe from amazon you need to search for Mr. Brogs. I have 2 and they are the best bang for the buck, about $25.
