I see what you see but I think there is a reflection around the band that makes the stem look larger in diameter. The last two pics look like it lines up.

Its a reflection.. I asked the seller.. They are flush.

The pot was a nice looking pipe. I will grant you that.

Let me climb in the confessional with you Benny. I am a thrift store hunting cheapskate who wants to publicly apologize for my "fool and his money" comment. Had I known you or another member were after those pipes I would have kept my pie hole shut.

In another thread about vintage comic book prices and estate pipe prices I made this comment, "the heart wants what the heart wants." I should have said that or nothing at all.

Enjoy your pipes my friend and please forgive my knuckleheadedness.

What if you live in Texas and had to walk barefoot on the hot asphalt?

It better be at 259. I once bought a Batson for 750 and it smoked like a wet snorkel.

No.

Just pulling my foot out of my mouth. Time and place.... time and place.

LOL. Love this thread. I always wonder about prices, because I'm "frugal" at times...

but then I think back to all the car, motorcycle, pipe, pipe paraphernalia, razor and shaving, album, etc. purchases I've made over the years. Perhaps I'm not as "frugal" as I think I am... When I want something, I want it.
