Hey Brothers,
I have an enormous case of pre-PAD, if that makes sense. In subscribing to one of the venerable pipe magazines "Pipes and Tabaccos" I'm learning more about the industry and found an interesting e-tailer - Bisgaard Pipes. Their site gives quite a bit info on every pipe they sell, and they appear to have competetive prices.
Of course, I seem to always read about the superiority of the Dunhill brand, and I'm curious what the "fuss" is all about, so to speak. If one of you gents would be so kind, I'd like to really understand what makes these pipes so superior and worth the high prices. That said, I'm still so uninformed about the pipe-making process, that I really don't understand why some pipes have such an exorbitant cost associated with them. I do understand that much of it has to do with the grain, but then I also see many rusticated pipes that are extremely expensive.
I'd love to better understand why pipes have such a large range in prices. Of course, remember that what ever "ammunition" you give me, will be used in defense of a PAD acquisition when I spend too much money. LOL
Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me better understand.
Sincerely,
Martin
