I was trying to hide that but you guys are amazing.
All of mine were workhorses from the beaters to the high grades. I've always loved Danish pipes and had a fair number of them from Preben Holm. Was just wandering how your Svends were relegated to the weekend team.

It’s the time of the week away from responsibilities, far from the pressures of the world. I find the spirit of the S Bangs to resonate with these perspectives.

Pipe Dreamer and Star Gazer
I've learned a long time ago, all pipes and related items are for sale. You just have to negotiate a price. I have pipes I wouldn't sell, at a reasonable price anyway. But if someone offered me $1.5 million for it I guarantee it'd be sold.
Kind of true. However, let’s take my bags of Penzance. They are not for sale. Yes, if you offered $20,000, I would sell it. But no one in their right mind will offer the obscene price I would accept. Therefore, it is safe to say it is not for sale. I think the same goes for his pipes. The obscene price insures one can repurchase a similar item and still make a profit more than the value of repurchasing said item. Any fool willing to meet that price is a fool because they could easily purchase said item from someone else at a fair market value.

This is what’s called critical thinking
