Would you buy an estate pipe from a pipe smokers collection?

[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 398417, member: 1969"] It's kind of a generalized cop-out, but it holds true that everyone probably smokes a different pipe with different tobacco, quite differently. One guy's hellish smoking mess might be another guy's cool, dry puffing heaven. Plus, since you can't try 'em out in the store when new, if the thing feels like crap in one guy's jaw, it might be a swell smoker, but might fit another guy's bite ideally. Pipes are worse than shoes or clothing, because if you buy it and try it, there's no going back if all parameters aren't met. Woe is us. :lol: There's been this mythos around that all estate pipes are on eBay for a reason: they smoke badly and someone is trying to get rid of them. Somehow I've made quite a few work, if that's the case. Pilot error is a factor sometimes. 8) [/QUOTE]
