    I had three perfect transactions with Rande this month. Each time he shipped quickly and included something extra in the box. He is a pleasure to do business with.

    LOOK'EN FOR A RADICE JUNE BUG

    It does not appear so. I was selling them as a set, so the buyer had to purchase both. They were for sale on eBay for a week, and I notified the forum via this thread as soon as I listed them. Would've liked to see them go to a brother.

    LOOK'EN FOR A RADICE JUNE BUG

    Hmm . . . hope not. That would be a bit misleading toward all those who purchased one thinking it was a limited edition of 100.

    LOOK'EN FOR A RADICE JUNE BUG

    I know you said you don't want to hear Ebay, but I just posted two for sale today on that site. Thought I'd let you know.

    Let's See Some Pics of Your Moretti's!

    Hmm...well based on my experience, and the conflicting stem descriptions from eBay and polinski's web site, I will have to respectfully disagree with your assessment. All of my polinski stems are slightly duller and softer than my acrylic stem pipes. Admittedly, the dullness could be from...

    Let's See Some Pics of Your Moretti's!

    Your post got me to thinking so I checked the eBay auctions. All the polinski pipes are listed as having ebonite stems, which is a synonym for vulcanite, a hardened rubber. At least according to their eBay listings, they are not acrylic.

    Really? I feel like my 4 polinskis are all vulcanite. The stems seem softer and seem to be dulling with age. I just assume they are vulcanite because they feel different and are acting differently than my acrylic stem pipes

    Let's See Some Pics of Your Moretti's!

    Thanks, EE. I do see some parallels between Polinskis and Morettis, especially, as you noted, in the aesthetics (stout, short shapes). The biggest difference I see is in the stem work. Polinski uses vulcanite, whereas Moretti uses acrylic. Also, two of my Polinskis have a small gap between the...

    Let's See Some Pics of Your Moretti's!

    New one to share today, brothers -- a Moretti magnum full bent. Stem fit is perfect, passes a cleaner effortlessly, no pits, and lots of nice straight grain. There is a natural dark spot in the grain near the rim (you can see it in the picture), but other than that it is immaculate. Another fine...

    Second Savinelli . . .

    I have two. They are both trouble-free, great smokers. My taste for their aesthetic has changed, though. They just don't offer many short, stout shapes. The 616 KS is almost there for me but not quite, and the Baronet line is just too long. I wish they would offer something that appealed to...

    Let's See Some Pictures Of Your Polinskis

    Very nice pipes, EE. I particularly like the pokers. I've had my eye on a few of those. I love the first with the lucite stem, as I'm beginning to view vulcanite stems as a deal breaker for me -- too much maintenance.

    What do all of you think about his new shapes and colors? I'm noticing a tend over the past month. He's starting to offer pipes in various unorthodox colors (e.g., green, blue, etc) and he is moving from the large, stout aesthetic to somewhat more whimsical shapes. I'm finding myself less...
