This is a fun place to be ... After 25 years I have finally moved from the Florida Keys to the lake country of west-central Florida and the town of Lakeland. I'm a writer who likes to work with wood. I've found that my favorite woods have become the natural briers - briar, bruye - used to make smoking pipes, which I also like to smoke. Several years ago I began restoring old "estate" pipes, and after smoking a few of them and finding that they are the ultimate "bargains" in today's high-priced world of pipes, I began offering some of them for sale on eBay. I try to keep between 100 and 150 pipes listed at all times. They mainly come from estate lot buys I make either on eBay or directly from some estate liquidators. It amazes me how many of the great old pipes are still around, with plenty of good smokes left in them. All most of them need is a little tender, loving care. I sort out the best of the old pipes I come across and proceed to restore them to as near their original condition as I can. If they don't make that grade, then off they go to the trash pile or some other restorer who likes the ultimate challenge. My pipes are sanitized, restored and ready to smoke when you get them. Often cheaper than drug store pipes, among them you will find some real classics from 50, 60 or 70 years ago when briar was king - properly cured and not rushed to market until absolutely ready to be made into a fine smoking pipe. A whole new world! eBay is a whole new world of discovery. Although I originally got into it because of my pipe hobby, I have been an old "junker" for most of my 70+ years and really get a kick out of discovering an old treasure and bringing it back to life. From time to time I do sell things other than the pipes - things like my collection of game, fish and seafood recipes and stories, plus the occasional collectible or antique.
