I need you all to start being more dilligent with your ebay searches and to be more consistent in feeding your PAD. You see, I need to stop buying pipes on ebay and the only way I can see to do that is if I can get you all to buy all the pipes that I would be buying instead. I keep seeing all these great deals and it is becoming more and more difficult to restrain myself.

So, if the below listing doesn't go above $30 by tommorow night, I will have been forced to buy yet another pipe. The wife will be very angry with me but I will just have to explain to her that it is all your faults and that the community let me down. I have set a low ceiling of $30 for myself on any and all bids, in order that I may a)not go broke, b)leave enough room that others can still get a great deal and c) leave enough room that I can still get a good deal if nobody else will take the jump.

Now as a disclaimer, I have no idea about the seller and obviously can't vouch for the pipe itself as I have never seen it in person, however it is one of Mike Brisset's pipes and I know that should be enough in and of itself to peak the interest of at least a few of you. I would never ask any of you to bid more than you are comfortable with or more that you can afford, but surely if I can afford $30 for such a nice pipe someone else can afford $31, right?

If I DO end up winning it, I will have to sell off one or two of the pipes and maybe some tobacco leftovers that I already have to make room on my rack and to offset the expense, small though it may be. So please, I am asking that someone bid enough on this pipe so that I don't win it. You just may save a life:

I note the current bid is $31. Thank you friends, I can sleep easy again tonight.
:lol!:
 
That is a fine looking Brissett! With all of the pipes that the seller is listing, he must have bought off a collection.
 
Sure is...and look at the company it is sharing. Whoever owned the collection that seller acquired sure had some good taste in pipes.
 
Looks like someone may get a really nice deal on a really sweet pipe in another half hour or so. Hope it is one of you Bobs, can't think of anyone else I would rather see it go to. Other than me of course.
 
I won it and it arrived yesterday. It looks beautiful and I'm excited to give it a try. Thanks for the heads up.
 
Sweet, congrats. I suspect you got an excellent deal on a great pipe, I am totally jealous. Pretty sure I saved the pics and may end up trying to get Mr Brissett to make me a similar one eventually anyway, which would absolutely defeat the purpose of this thread. I guess that is PAD for ya.
 
I think you got a hell of a deal on that pipe. I've only owned a few of Mike's pipes but they all smoked great.
