Opinon On Thompson Pipe

[pflan]

Hey guys,
Been looking around for a unique straight pipe to add to my small, but growing arsenal. I found this unsmoked Thompson from James Island Piper. Thoughts, opinions on it? Any experience with Thompsons? The description says it was made in Italy for Thompson.

Seems to be a pretty pipe for $49..

Hmmmm.. so it could possibly be a Sav with a different name on it. Yeah the acrylic stem doesn't really worry me.
But I did find this beaut.

Also has an acrylic stem and has a couple of visible fills on the front of the bowl, but looks nice other than that.
