when you tire of it you can probably sell it

Heresy!
Just kidding. I'm not one to sell a pipe. I have traded... once, but never sold one.

I just don't think I could do it.
As for the suggestions above all are valid, but I would stay away from the P-lip (at least at first). Just didn't work for me.

I tend to give pipes away more than sell them. I would rather further our hobby's comeback by helping some people out!

My previous posts were made in good fun, but I can't help but wonder if some guys love their Petes "because" they and the pipe are both Irish. I had a customer who used to come in my shop who was of Irish decent and went around the IRA bumper stickers on his car. He would not smoke any pipe but a Pete.
If I were like that I would smoke Dunhills instead of Castellos...
And now for something completely different... I posted a new thread about Ebay and pipes, but it does not appear in the Forums list. Tried again but no luck. Strangely enough it shows up if I click on my name under my avatar. Anyone know what I did wrong?

Good fun recognized Searock. I smoke Petes cause I like em. I also smoke BBB and Comoy's for the same reason .

I got a chance to try out my new Peterson XL23 Kinsale with the P-Lip last night. I loaded it up with some Penzance and it feels really comfortable in the hand. It took a half bowl before I became accustomed to the P-Lip, but I found I really like it. Now I know what all the fuss about Petersons is about.

Searock old buddy,..*keep you friends close but your enemies closer*,...old pal, I have to admit; I bought my first Pete for no other reason other than the fact that it was made in Dublin.
But then I only drink Jameson's and wouldn't have a bottle of Bushmill's in the house.

I was resisting temptation until this thread combined with a youtube tip from dubinthedam:
Just ordered the Peterson Gold Mounted Supreme Straight Grain 606 from smokingpipes.com
What could I do? With a $380 discount it just met my upper limit. That's it for the Christmas money.
