[QUOTE="KevinM, post: 312618, member: 2318"] Well, as I understood it the group sizes were introduced by Dunhill for Dunhill pipes and were later hijacked by others, particularly wannabees and e-tailers who face a constant struggle to exhibit goods, produced by others, in a context that prevents fondling. (Grid backgrounds are awful imho.) One e-tailer we know frequently says re: her estate pipes, something like, "This beautiful Dunhill is stamped 3, but it looks more like a 4 to me." Lacking an accepted industry standard, we'll have to work with one in which the margins are blurred. It's the sort of thing in which one can be mistaken, but the consequences of the mistake are easily bearable. [/QUOTE]
