That is sure unusual.

 

[Stormcrow]

Yes it is.

Not only that, they seem real proud of that piece. $450 starting bid?

Clark Griswold: "Do you smell something Eddie?"

Eddie: "Yep, fried pussy cat!"

 

[JoelS]

Wow, someone actually bid on it!

 

[Justpipes]

Interesting piece for sure but not $450 interesting!

One man's junk is another man's treasure!

That is a very collectible piece, and I think the buyer got a bargain. What many of us do not understand is that there is a large collector market for antique pipes, and often the collectors do not even smoke. There is a monkey pipe on ebay right now at around $400, and I told my wife it will probably go for over $1000.

Pipes are not just for smoking.
