[QUOTE="sstodvictory, post: 237012, member: 948"] It could be new old stock (NOS), and it would not be unusual for a NOS pipe that had been out of its box for display in a store for a long time, to get separated from its original box, depending on how organized the store is. The same scenario could explain the stem oxidation, and that will buff out. If its dramatically more oxidized near the bit than the rest of the stem, it could be that some shoppers have given the display pipe the "mouth test", or worst case scenario its not new after all.
