Quantity or Quality?

I have a few high end pipes that I don't regret buying. They smoke great and I appreciate the artistic touch in the carving.

That being said, the pipe I smoke the most is an old Charaton pot that cost me 30 bucks

I used to be all about the quality. I spent $300-$500 on a pipe fairly regularly. I am easing back into occasional pipe smoking and am spending closer to $50-$75 per pipe. I may get a new Tinsky or Rad Davis pipe one day but am not smoking enough to warrant one now. The higher end pipes are geared towards collectors and the higher price does not mean a better smoke, at least not a $400 better smoke.
