[QUOTE="Fr_Tom, post: 411316, member: 3139"] I have a theory about this in certain cases, and it may be completely wrong, but here goes... How many people think the bent stem goes in that way? Are all of them on ebay selling pipes? I think sometimes it is done intentionally to draw the eye and capture attention. It gives the impression that the vendor is clueless and may be selling a Dunhill as an "England" pipe. You think "W00t! Here is my chance to get a deal on a pipe that is not going to show up in searches because the vendor is an idiot!" If you click to check it out, the strategy worked. Of course it could be that the vendor really is is clueless, etc. [/QUOTE]
