[QUOTE="talrmn35, post: 140235, member: 1447"] I have a Savinelli and it is nice...picked it up on ebay. I think I paid 35 or 40 bucks for it. I also have a couple Nordings and a Mario Grandi. (along with a kaywoodie and a couple basket pipes). I have had my eye and a couple Stanwells and I know those are the brands (Sav, stan pete) that seem to be in my range...but I have yet to pay more than 50 bucks for anything. And knowing I could pick up any of the above brands "estate" for less does make it difficult to justify buying one new. "There are a couple of very good carvers who could make you a pipe for maybe $150 or so. I know when the budget is tight that extra $50 can really be hard to find, but it's worth it to my mind to get a "custom made" pipe, essentially designed and carved specifically for you. " Frost, Who would you recommend? Thanks for all the input! [/QUOTE]
