Surprisingly Good B&M

[AlabamaDan]

I was passing through a little town today and stopped off at a little place and surprised to find a rather well stocked tobacco shop. I thought it was well rounded with a large wide selection of cigars, some beverages, some pipe tobacco, and pipes and of course some cigarettes. I snapped a couple of quick and discrete pics of the pipes and some tobaccos. I'm new to pipe smoking and I'd be interested to know tobacco in the case catches your eye. They had some large bags in the back of the store, but I didn't go back to take a picture.

As the Tsuge blends have been discontinued, I would have grabbed these.

 

[AlabamaDan]

Tsuge is good stuff?

Do I spy some Drew Estate Meat Pie in that glass cabinet?

Meat Pie is also discontinued but has a cult following... ?

 

[AlabamaDan]

Yup. Looks like two cans. Good stuff?

Valuable. You could flip that for 50 bucks all day long...

 

[smokeyweb]

50 a tin that is...

 

[AlabamaDan]

Hmmm.... sounds like I need another road trip. I go through there every couple weeks.

Yeah. You should definitely try and snag those Meat Pies... If nothing else, you can trade them for other unicorns.

The Dunhill Standard Mixture is also worth picking up. It's too recent to be collectible, but it's a good smoke. And in another few years it might actually become decent trade bait once smokers become nostalgic for the Pre-Peterson Dunhill tins.

It was a little store in Hattiesburg MS across the road from a gas station. Honestly I can't remember the name, but I will sure swing by again next time I'm passing through. Sounds like they have some little treasures.

Yea, it looks like a cool little place. I saw your username and thought maybe you were near me. I'm in Alabama.. in the southeast part of the state, I havent really found any kind of b&m within driving distance.

Nice they have some rare tins but by no means is this close to a well stocked B&M. Looks like this is a place that mostly forgot about pipes some time ago and you're seeing the left overs.

I think it is primarily a cigar store. Lots of cigars. The large bags in the back might attention but these cases look neglected

This sounds like a dream sequence. If they don't know what they have and charge prices established before some of these were discontinued, it could be a real windfall. Happy hunting. I would sure give them some business if possible. I'm surprised they can make it in a smaller community, but hurrah for them.
