Well in usual fashion I went overboard and purchased a nice lot (at least from the pics) of about 9 estate pipes. Cleaning kit is in the mail as well so hopefully when I get them all cleaned up I can toss up some pics of the new small collection.
My 2nd pipe, a Savinelli showed up day before yesterday which looks to be in outstanding shape and it had a great aroma to it. I asked the seller what it was and he said it was Lane LTD BCA 5000 Black Cavendish. I was looking around for it and could only find a listing for BCA sans the "5000", but I think it maybe the same deal.
Now it's time for this newb to wade through all the tobacco out there and try to figure out something to purchase.
I hope your New Year's Eve is great, to a great bunch of folks!
