I picked up a lot of those from eBay as well. They should be here next week. Looking forward to playing with them!Quote:

Turns out, he is sending a partial refund and shipping them together. Got to admit, I'm a little impressed.Quote:

Because of the jerks in the other thread I couldn't stop myself from clicking "YESYESYES SEND IT TO ME NOW!" on this (although not from SP, this is just a better pic):

It's a Stanwell Hans Cristian Anderson with a sort of canted Dublin not-quite-a-Zulu bowl. I've always wanted a slightly more proper Churchwarden than the semi-Church McCarter I have now, and this fits the bill. Now I just need to track down a 9mm adapter 'coz this guy doesn't use filters.
IF is absolutely one of my favorites!Quote:

I should add I received a bonus from work and that more than covered this "responsible" purchase.

I ordered a flat bottomed Decatur Rustic Poker and it arrived Wednesday along with 5 tins of Frog Morton (Froggy Went A Courtin' Sampler.) I've only tried the "On the Bayou" so far but really enjoy it.
The pipe disappointed me however as the stem is too heavy and the bowl doesn't sit flat on the table; this is the reason I purchased this shape: to be able to set it down!
It was an inexpensive (read: cheap) pipe and I guess you get what you pay for. :thud:
