[QUOTE="Brunello, post: 547707, member: 4458"] Some good responses guys. Zeno obviously knows a heck of a lot more about all this than I do. I never imagined how - I don't even know the word - obsessive this hobby could become to those with a lot of expendable income. Like D.L.Ruth and his working man's Peterson, I have never spent more than $200 on any pipe, and that's even adjusted for inflation. The Comoy Blue Riband I bought in ~ 1980 was maybe just over a hundred bucks back then. My question for ftrplt, and I'm not trying to pry, just understand, is the reason your two special pipes remain unsmoked because you purchased them as an investment, or are trying to retain the resell value should you need to divest sometime in the future? Or maybe it has to do with a sense of stewardship like a museum curator who takes pride in his collection? [/QUOTE]
