Muletown Roll Call

[NookersTheCat]

That's my plan. I am going to sell mine. I just got it to share with the community that couldn't make it, albeit with a little spending money adding in for the trouble.

That's awesome of you.. wish I could have lived closer because factoring in planes and hotels tinbids still would have been cheaper lol. It looked like a great show too... kinda sad I missed out on the Sutliff history aspect of it all.

Anyway, let me know whenever you're ready if there's some not spoken for... I'd love to be able to try an ounce or 2 and am not afraid to compensate for one's time! :D

I was at the show open to close on Saturday. It was my first one ever, and it was great! I asked around to find as many forum members as I could find, but I didn't come across very many. Shout out to @Oddball for doing a great job checking folks in.

I saved up a bit and was able to really do well, I thought:

View attachment 378838
-2lb Sweated and the Per Jensen pouches from Sutliff along with a history book, cutter, pin, and a t-shirt.
-2 tins of C&D Muletown blend
-Squashed tomato I just fell in love with from Crappy Pipes (Scottie Piersel's husband makes them).
-3 "Good" cobs, including 'The Raven', which i have wanted for a long time.
-And some tobacco I got from Redeemed pipes. 2 jars SG Chocolate Flake (4oz total, roughly, S10 total), 2oz Country Squire Rivendell for $3, 4oz Boswells Northwood for $5, 2 2 oz 4th Gen aged VA ($20), 1 tin 2012 MacB Navy Flake and 1 tin Kriek era no1 VA for a lot, sadly, and my big score was just under 8oz of 'unknown' that is SPC Plum Pudding for $7. Smells like PP, looks like PP, smokes like PP. I shared with 3 other guys there who all agreed.

All in all a fantastic time. Bonus for getting home safely and finding my house still standing. Just thunderstorms had hit it, too.

It was a pleasure to meet you and enjoy a pre-show smoke. Looks like you scored a nice haul!

Anyone else sitting with 2lbs of Sweated, watching this TINBIDS auction and feeling antsy about hocking one of them?

I’m confused on this. They told us at the show each box was half a pound, but the box says one pound and they’re all being sold as one pound. I didn’t weigh it before I broke it down and packed it away.

Jeremy said it was 1lb packed in 1/2lb blocks. You should've had 2 blocks in the box.

At about 4pm on Saturday, I went back in the room and he still had about a dozen left on the table. He said the 2lb limit was gone but was still cash only. I had already spent my cash so I asked if I could fill a small poly bag from the end cuts he was sampling as I would've gotten more if he would take a card/paypal/venmo.

He was super kind, and I got about 2oz of the ends he was handing out. Some of that bag is going to a friend on this forum.

It's really good but I'm fighting an internal struggle over a Brentagani I passed over at the show and selling one of these would essentially net a $350 pipe for a $50 block of baccy.

hmmm a little bit, I am watching them with great anticipation.

Also if you look at the picture it appears its a pound, but they are cut into 2 half pound bricks sealed inside the mylar.
