Pretty much how I do it. I just don't resell them. Yet.

I’ve been waiting for a Nuttens Mini Bing that struck my fancy for a while. They go really quick and the ones that are left over are usually not to my taste. So when I got the email from SmokingPipes, the day after I placed a tobacco order, I checked out the new arrivals and loaded my cart with two options. One sold out by the time I drove home, 20 minutes, so I went with the second one. Which I think I would of chose if I still had the option. A really nice light colored Sandblast. It’s perfect and better in person! Add another one to the collection!

That's a beauty, @Piping Abe - nice choice! I especially like that right aspect!

That is a nice looking pipe.
Is the stem/shank unusually long compared to most other pipes?

It is suppose to be a long tenon on pipes that are longer than normal and super thin shanks for support. Thank you!

Nice pipe. I haven’t bought a pipe in at least 18 months but have started looking again so we shall see if something catches my eye.
