[QUOTE="KevinM, post: 265850, member: 2318"] The audience might be split into smokers > collectors > investors. It's hard to imagine why a smoker would not attempt to enhance his experience with his own pipe. The collector group holds a wide range of people, and some of them might well reach for a drill, figuring, "I'll be gone one day, so the next fellow can fret about my enhancements." I don't know how a market could track this activity, though. Investors probably should not mess around in the basement lest they diminish their return. I got a very nice price on an Upshall because "the logo on the bit was rubbed off by vigorous polishing." I was shocked -- shocked! -- but gladly bought it anyway. The seller was holding the line, however, on pipes that were fully and clearly original but looked, well, shabby. [/QUOTE]
