March Meer Madness - 2015

I am Meer-less myself. Not even a meer lined briar.

So I guess sign me up under the "I want to know why they're so awesome and should I buy one" crowd. I have been looking at clay pipes lately....maybe I should jump up my Meer game instead.

If you jump I cannot recommend a meer-lined briar. I know the lined pipes are not without their fans but I m not one of them.

I wouldn't buy one, so no worries. Why would I want my briar to be more fragile?

If I get one, I think I would spring for one of those dimpled billiards. I like the look of them, and I like how the African Meer colors. What I don't care for, are the prices

You understand, I am not here as an enabler - only here to try and make the odds go your way if SOMEONE ELSE is a PAD enabler.

Last meer I bought (a "cheap" but large/large Paycok dublin with clamshell case) was at a B&M in JAX/San Marco a few years ago - thought $90 was high for a Paycok but the pipe was exacty what I was looking for.

Holy Guacamole! The closest thing from Altinok is about $170-$190; Paycok runs around $120 (however, the patriotic bejewelled bulldog trinket box is a close out bargain - something for the bosses birthday?

Got both of these together for $43 shipped on Ebay a couple of months ago. The detail on the left one is amazing. They have been smoked but carefully handled. Sorry, can't smoke them, getting over a cold.
