My main takeaway from looking at TinBids listings is how many now regretted decisions pipers have made building their cellars over the years.

Yes, yes I know tastes change. I'm just making a little joke.
I know a pipe smoker who has several times sold me unopened tins of tobacco at great prices. We're not talking about one or two of the same blend, but sometimes 10 or 20 cans, all alike. Can anyone explain to me why someone would buy that much of a blend just to try? Seems like buying one would be enough. I can't figure it out, can you? cray

I think you're under estimating the amount of flipper who never had any interest in the tobacco anyways, just looking for a quick dollar.

Anyways, I got a square tin Penzance for $250 if anyone is interested...
