Be careful of accounts saying they know a guy that has what you are looking for, and give you an email address to check if they still have the tins/pipes. I almost just got scammed by mikky89. I decided to ask his "connection" if the Cabbies for sale was the Dunhill version. They said yes.

Yeah, but that Dunhill version of Cabbies is pretty rare stuff.

A month or so back someone message me about a pipe which was for sale here, saying they had purchased it and I could contact them for details and buy it off them if I still wanted it. I must have put a sad face or a comment on the “all sold” post indicating I would have been interested. It had red flags all over it, I would have been an idiot to follow it up. Suffice to say, I’m not buying off anyone who isn’t a solid member of the forum family.
