There are several manufacturers who offer nice pipes for under $100. Specifically I would recommend both Stanwell and Kaywoodie as offering excellent quality for your money. Personally I find Peterson to be too hit and miss from one pipe to the next. I've owned many high grade Danish pipes, mostly WO Larsen Straight Grains, and have sold most of them. The majority of my pipes now are Stanwells.

A good pipe lighter is nice to have, but certainly not necessary. I've smoked thousands of bowls lit with a $1 Bic lighter. But if you want a good quality pipe lighter, get an Old Boy. You won't be disappointed.

As to tampers, I've had some Mings, but ended up selling them all. Now I use either a Rogers pipe knife or a plain old pipe nail.
