I also like to go to yard sales. It's supposed to be a nice weekend here, so hopefully I can find a few. The thrill of the hunt, and never knowing what you'll bring home.It's been a while since we've been out garage sailing. The two biggest enemies of garage sales has kept us grounded. That's holidays and bad weather. But this weekend is looking good. I'm going out and am so determined to score I'm going to buy something whether I want it or not! Stay tuned, the insanity continues.....![]()
I picked up an unsmoked Dr. Grabow Starfire from the ‘50s and and a crazy Venturi “Feather Rock” also unsmoked. At the same place I nabbed some cheap vinyl in fantastic condition.

These were definitely the exception. Typically I see horribly beat up pipes and dealers are asking full, new retail. I find the same with records. Condition is everything.What luck! I’ve been to dozens of thrift stores lately and can’t find a pipe that is even restorable.

Great find! I know nothing about the Orlik but the Dunhill will be very good. It's a strong rich Lat blend.View attachment 378460
Picked these up for 10 bucks a piece today. All unopened. Never seen the orliks, and never had an old dunhill tin, i don't care for latakia or aromatics much, but I'll give em a chance.
