[QUOTE="Guy, post: 190308, member: 1791"] In general any fine pipe…These days prices have gone wild due to the “Collectability” factor also inflation and scarcity of Plateau briar. The Ben Wade freehand "First" Straight Grain Smooth Finish that cost me $35 in the late 70’s or the $125 one of a kind hand made by a local pipemaker (Sovereign) in the late 80’s that both now go for $500+ is just not worth the money for me at this point in my life. Luckily, I amassed a very large collection from years back. These days if I see a good deal on a Peterson or meerschaum I may go for it. [/QUOTE]
