I know wet shavers will try to score older safety razors from antique shops. You guys had any luck with pipes?
Have you ever been to the shops in Holly, MI? They all have pipes, one in "battle alley" has about 30 on hand (or more) most of the time. Some pretty nice one's! I have purchased three from them. If they sit there long enough they will come down on the price.One weekend a month we drive around to these shops not really to buy but more for something to do. If it's one thing we have enough of around here it's antique and junk shops. Out of all the mess you'd think you would find a pipe or two but nothing worth a cats ass to be found.Tons of ashtrays and tobacco tins but not a pipe in site. Still you never know and the hunt makes going through all the other junk worth while.
No, we have never been there. We usually head south or maybe over to Marshall down to Indiana sometimes. Thanks for the heads up though...maybe after this winter we'll have to make a road trip over there.Have you ever been tp the shops in Holly, MI?
