I buy both estate and new. Most of my pipes are new but certain lines like Dunhill, Castello, etc...are beyond my means so if one comes up on ebay I will bid for it. I will also buy estates from my favorite carver, as he has an annual pipe that comes out and I'm trying to get the older ones for the complete set. Unless you are good at cleaning out old pipes I would suggest buying a new one. It'll take a bit of work to properly break it in but at least you'll know its clean and actually in good shape.

I'd really like to get into this one day, just not today.

The Tinder Box has a nice selection, but kind of pricey, Dustin. I usually buy online. Shoot me your address again, and I will send you some samples of good pipe tobacco after the holidays. Go find yourself a couple inexpensive cob pipes. I recommend these for dabbling, experimenting, and getting started out. If you enjoy smoking pipes and settle on some favorite tobacco or blends, then it would be time to invest. There are a lot of nice new pipes to be had out there for between $50 and $100 such as Stanwell. Then the sky is the limit!

X2 - Just take the filters out if your pick up the filtered lines and smoke em; like a normal pipe. Very easy break in too for a cob. I like the country gentleman shape as its is pretty decent sized bowl

Here ya' go: adds up to just less that $2 per pipe. These are also nice to smoke outside/in the shop and whatnot, so if you drop one, you are not out much. Not sure why they include screens with em'. You won't need those unless you are smoking a different leafy substance...
