here are some pictures of a new Graco Safari that i just got in the mail
i have questions about it because this is the first pipe i have purchased other than my no name cheapo from the local store
1 - when i look in the bowl i see shiny places and i see dull places that look like dust or ash but it does not wipe off
2 - when i look into the shank i see the bore hole to the bowl is completely off center
3 - when i try to push a regular small diameter pipe cleaner through the stem it will not go through from either end - the hole looks so small that it seems that it would be quite hard to draw through to me
i think i could live with everything but problem 3 - maybe that is because i don't know what is good and what is bad
please look at these pictures and tell me what you think - would you pay $ 75 for this ?
thank you
