[QUOTE="docwatson, post: 434111, member: 232"] Sean, the above quote would be my reply as well. And like good friend Lee Von Erck told a roomful of guests at a recent pipe show while delivering a speech. Directed at the many younger new pipe makers. "Don't give up your day job". LOL I have experienced the same situation as you have, where they all of a sudden become a popular pipe star and their prices average from $250-$300 and within a year jump up into the $400+ bracket. The majority of the new pipe makers are nothing more than a flash in the pan and will be gone in a few years. That's where the experienced pipe maker that has earned his/her keep and built a reputation over years of devotion to perfecting their craft comes into play. These are the makers that I admire and will buy their pipes. I wish you luck and a pleasant outcome with this transaction. Hope to see you in the near future. Andy [/QUOTE]
