New arrival today. I purchased the pipe with the understanding it was NOS - Unsmoked. After inspection I believe it not to be the case.

She may be sent back to the seller. View attachment 438617View attachment 438618View attachment 438619View attachment 438620View attachment 438621
Why do you think that? Externally it looks great, are there traces of use in the bowl?

It’s a nice pipe - if the price was contingent on it being a NOS piece, maybe you could come to an arrangement, perhaps a partial refund?

Had my eye on her … Great pipe
Haha, the moment I saw her, i knew there was a 99% chance that at least one person from here had too. I hemmed and hawed for 2 days straight and finally decided I would buy her if no one else had by the time I got home from work, and lo, here we are. Probably also got lucky that people were holding out for the 160th/25th pipes as well.

Well, okay... I arrived home after running morning errands & see ARRIVED from Dublin via UPS were the 160th Anniversary Pipes. The Pat B 1974/2400 Dark Smooth bent & the PatOB 1434/2400 Rusticated straight. I am VERY happy with them. Late Sunday 2AM PST order time helps. It was VERY fa$t delivery! 🙃 (9mm- hence Dublin & no 9mm SETS- so...

That last one also completes a ‘selection’ of ‘textured’ short straights'. The stunningly grained Captain Pete 107 Chubby, the 2013 superbly Sandblasted Antique commemorative PatOB & the new 160th Anniversary Rusticated. All feel great in hand.
Currently smoking the Rusticated PatOB 160th, AND yes, the stem IS a tad 'chunky' but... THIS is a great smoking pipe. The Kramers Extra Smooth is 'oh so VERY tasty" in the bowl .puffy

These are NOT the truly important things in life at all. I am SO grateful for the big things & so very thankful for these little things. :sher: I am ending this 160th celebrations with gratitude & determination to NOT add to my pipe companion group in ‘26 without first unloading some pipes not often 'companioned' beforehand.

The PetersonPipeNotes POY'25 (PPN) is due before Christmas 🎄 & I am aware just how very blessed I am. 🙌🏼 SO thankful -

😃 be well O’Brethren of the Briar!
