LOL, glad to see you got that one Peck, I think it was a very fair price. Should be an awesome smoker and the looks are incredible. I would have gone after it but one of my commissions from Rad will be getting here soon.
The guy selling the Rad for 800.00 is someone everyone should stay away from. I have tried buying a pipe from him in the past and when he is done negotiating with you he harasses you into trying to bypass ebay and just send him money using paypal. It is against ebays policy and you can get banned for doing it. He also tried the exact same thing with another member here. He does this to save on fees and he says that it is no different than buying through ebay which is a lie. You get no buyer protection doing that. He is a total asshole in the way he whines about his price not being enough because of the listing fees. His prices are also usually really high to start with as that Rad he is trying to sell is only a 350-375 dollar pipe max.
Bradley, good for you on your new Rad, let us know how it smokes. Two of my pipes from Rad are from 06 and both are great smokers. One of them I also got from Dave at MKE-Law pipes. You realize that it is a pretty small pipe in terms of what you normally buy, group 4 at the max. It will be a killer flake pipe though, if you have some ODF or similar, I would go for that first.
