I'm guessing "collectable" over "smokeable" is the key here...
No mention of type of wood used so I wonder about that. Also the images look like computer renderings rather than photos of actual objects but I could be wrong.
The Blanton’s is out of stock but can be had on the secondary market for $120.00.
those look like a.i. images to me. Something uncanny about them. Could be the lack of caffeine.
They are sharp looking though. I like the Jameson pipe, myself
There’s definitely an AI/computer rendering feel to all of these—the dead giveaway is the Blanton’s—I don’t know about you, but I want my “BOURBOY” neat with an “N.”
If someone purchases one of these pipes I would love to hear their feedback.
Not Whisky, but if Guiness is your tipple...

Yeah, the more I loom at them, photoshop or AI is seeming very plausible.
They definitely have an AI feel about them. I do like the PacMan one, though.
And yet not one whisky among them…
Someone needs to toss a nice scotch into the AI generator (not me, I’ve seen Terminator).

I mean, the pipes are blatantly AI generated images and the additional "Photoshopping" is beyond horrible, but what the hell is this, why is the pipe mirrored here?
I don't care if they're $1 and you're a super fan of one of these whiskeys, I absolutely would not give that site any of your information to get one. Sketch af.

AI is getting better and better but it still looks way too clean and shiny for a trained eye to not detect it
I don't like pipes with so much decoration, and even less with advertising of whatever. The same thing happens to me with clothes. I am more traditional. I wouldn't buy it, and if I get it as a gift, it would be only for decoration.
