Pipe suggestion

[Zanaspus]

The red flag I see is that it is dip-stained. Look at the pictures where you can see into the bowl; same staining as on the outside. To me, this is an indication of a pipe maker who's less than an artist, but YMMV. Why buy a pipe that at best you'll want to modify by sanding the inside of the bowl? Trust me, stain doesn't taste good.

Of course, if the pipe speaks to you ignore me.
