But I'm just a little old fashioned. It seems like a perfect solution to a non-existent problem to me.

Don't like the 'system'. Can't pass a pipe cleaner no way no how, so if you get a plugged draugh hole, you're screwed. PIA to clean too; can't just run a pipe cleaner thru the stem for a quickie cleanout, no you have to take it apart every time and swab the gunk out of it. Also don't like that p-lip thing. If I ever buy a Pete, it will be one of the silver spigots with a fishtail bit and it won't be a 'system' pipe.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Well, it looks like the buyer came to his senses before paying for it. It is now re-listed and correctly identified. lol
I got an email saying an item I was watching has been re-listed.
If anyone has a vintage Dunhill pipe and no box, this may be an inexpensive way to get one.

Somebody still bought it at $30!
I guess if you really needed the box and wanted a Grabow, that could be worth it?

Well, I guess my venerable Kirsten Mariner is a "system pipe". And it's the sweetest smoking pipe I own, despite being the least expensive pipe I own.

Shucks! I was late to the party and missed this bad boy
I'll have to pay more attention in footure.
