Just a thought. Why not post one or two on the forum at a fixed price and see if there are any bites? With only a couple of dozen pipes it seems like a lot of effort to set up eBay or Etsy accounts.
If I have a pipe I don't like smoking I just trade it in to smokingpipes.com and buy something else. I'd rather not have to deal with ebay. If I had a lot of pipes to sell then I'd go with pipestud.
fitzy, I maybe wrongly assumed Claude was selling all his pipes. After re reading his initial post, I must agree with you whole heartedly. Trading in with smokingpipes is quick, painless, and yields some gems on the way back.

I have nothing to offer in addition to the swell advice presented by those more knowledgeable than I.
I just wanted to stop in to say that this entire thread warms my cold, libertarian, free market heart.
