Does Anyone Here Know Black?

I am very curious if anyone knows this guy firsthand.

See, Kyle Black scammed a $300 Pipe Box Pass at another forum.

I'm hoping that someone here can say they know him personally and that's just plain impossible and I am totally full of horse hockey about that.

That sucks. What is a pipe box pass?

It's like any (cigar) box pass but the contents are limited to pipes, pipe tobacco and pipe accessories.

Someone fills a box with gear and it is passed along thru a list of participants who have signed up to play - each pass member takes what they wish, replaces it with something of equal (or greater) value and mails it to the next person on the list. The guy who starts it by filling a box takes the risk it may disappear, which doesn't happen often. Each member along the way get to treat the contents as a monster sampler. Presumably, when it gets back to the guy who startred it he has a box filled with stuff he hasn't seen before.

Kyle Black got a loaded box, didn't respond to emails or pm's and it was never seen again. He has cropped up on some other forums. I was hoping someone here knew him and could help get things straightened out.

If not, heads up.
