Damn briarbuck, if you'd stop following the Grateful Dead back and forth across the county, get a job, and a place with a mailing address...
Also become a citizen.. jeez. ?
warren, you are right I would never pay that for a pipe as I still have my youngest going to college the next semester.
But dammit, that money is already put away. This is free money, it is money like I picked up off the ground and said shit I can buy anything I want. Here is my dream pipe it is a Jess and it probably went for 5 grand

You can buy a Jack Howell for around that money too if you wanted both worlds (spend-a-stack+buy-a-Jack)....he makes some very nice high-grades
The government, in any recent administration, hasn't seen fit to include me in the Covid $....but I'm a real plucky chap who just keeps stimulating the economy anyway. My vote is go buy a high-grade, whatever grabs your eye. You weren't expecting it....wasn't in your budget....don't have other pressing obligations....that sounds like a new high-grade to me.

I have an incredibly high grade Peterson Kildare for sale in the classifieds......

You'll need to save it.. it'll help cover all the inflation that is certainly coming.
The hole burned quick for me and I bought a Larry Roush that had a few smokes under its belt. My most expensive pipe to date and can’t wait to smoke it!
If I had $1400.00 worth of "blow" I really don't think women would be a problem(till is's gone anyway) ...
For whatever it's worth, Roush pipes are said to possess those elusive great smoking properties.
Thanks Salted - the exact reason I felt good pulling the trigger on that one!
That pipe is beautiful. I just hope you get one that makes you happy, old guy!warren, you are right I would never pay that for a pipe as I still have my youngest going to college the next semester.

But, I predict all of these guys buying up huge tobacco orders soon, and more shortages and empty shelves to come.
Your posts inspired me to get some JH pipes and I couldn’t agree more that they smoke as well as my Former and Eltangs. I’ll throw a curveball, split the difference and try a J Alan and another Howell
@cigrmaster I was surprised to read that you mentioned your Former pipes as average smokers, because if I could ever afford it, his 60th Anniversary Panel was in my dreams.
Did you ever consider buying one of his 60th Anniversary Panel pipes?
I never thought I’d hear someone say Former’s pipes are average smokers.
By the way, my comments aren’t meant to convey any attitude/rudeness, I’m just making a comment is all. It goes to show, any pipe can be good, bad, average, etc., regardless of costs.
Hmm ?

Harris, I tried to find you an asbestos pocket liner to help with that burning through thing. No one seems to be dealing in the stuff any more.
I gave @BROBS 5% of my stimulus check for a Peterson estate. I hope he feels stimulated.
The rest of mine will be used to stimulate a loan balance (or maybe a Remington 1903)...

Seriously?! A Remington?!
Hell if you wanna drop 95% of a stimulus payment on a turd, I can help you out. Seems like you’d be money ahead with the loan, though.
I'd be dropping about 50% and it would be the nicest turd ever shat.
