[Ben.R.C]

Won an auction for a 50g tin of 2018 Esoterica Dunbar. Just wanted to taste a piece of VaPer history’, I have a bucket list . It costs way too much for anything but a one time deal.

 

[AJL67]

Small mail call. 1lb Simply Red. Monte EL and back door Boli Supremas from the festival. And a Jensen 9mm pipe.

 

[Peter Turbo]

Mail call. The Navy Rolls are from the P&C 20% off sale, the Esoterica is from the Milan Tobacconist drop and Rhythm and Blues from the WCC drop. Nothing new to me here, just more for the cellar.

C&D sale at SP got me pretty good.

 

[AJL67]

Few tins, some more of the Boli sublime rolled for the festival and a Georg Jensen 9mm pipe.

The mix ‘n’ match Peterson tin sale at P&C caught my eye, but I resisted. Then they dropped the 20% off flash sale, and they had me. I love double coupons! After tacking on a few others to get free shipping, I ended up with 8 tins for $80 shipped. Not too shabby!

Such a deal!

Ended up returning the pipe, I like Oom Paul’s in pictures but not in hand…

I find Paul oom pipes to be the best clinchers but i suppose they are actually “hangers”.

Definitely comfortable, I do like that fact. I’ve bought too many pipes that I was on the fence with and never end up smoking them. So nowadays if I buy one and don’t love it right away it gets returned. Maybe someday that shape will grow on me.

 

[Doctor Chopper]

I really like Le Petite Robin. That brick lasts a long time.

Never had a smoke from Manil I didn’t like. Really looking forward to trying the bouchons.

 

[AJL67]

Mail call Friday, new Bari freehand 9mm, some back door sticks and an English pipe knife.

 

[Doctor Chopper]

Smaller acquisition, but I really wanted to try the Orcilla Mixture.

 

[PA Piper Mike]

Nice weekend haul consisting of 2 orders.

That was one of my earliest tin acquisitions, wait, in fact all 3 of the round tins were in my earliest purchases...!
Anyway, love these 3 from the beginning and have a bit of each to get back to in the future; after I try another 150 blends or so...

Not any of my business at all but I’m just wondering if this was from a third party as I didn’t see this on his website and this seems like something I would jump on.

I emailed Ken asking if it was coming back in stock and he said he had a few bags left. Sent me them free of charge for being such a good customer. Extremely generous of him, I did offer to pay of course.

Wow. So generous. Pretty amazing. The squeaky wheel got the grease.
