Bought first Pipe today!

ksknnr · 12-16-2014, 03:00 PM

Well, I have been lurking in this forum for a while, and decided to pull the trigger today and a few starter kits from CI. Should be here in a few days along with a few different tobacco's, can't wait to jump in.

The.Sheepdog · 12-16-2014, 03:12 PM

cant wait to see it! What tobacco are you planning?

ksknnr · 12-16-2014, 03:17 PM

I bought the Dr. Grabow Starter Kit and Brylon Starter kits, both have 3 different ones in the kits, going be a coin toss for the first one.

That's like a thousand lawyers at the bottom of the sea.....

A good start!

Best wishes on your wonderful journey! And remember:

ksknnr · 12-17-2014, 01:00 PM

Well it looks like I am going to have to wait a little longer to start up. Got an e-mail from CI today, both starter kits I ordered and were confirmed in stock, are both on Back Order now. Oh well, a few more weeks won't kill me I guess.

ApexAZ · 12-17-2014, 01:56 PM

Well, congrats on your new pipe order! And sorry to hear you have to wait a little longer. Perhaps you could grab a cob from walgreens if you want to dabble while you wait?

The.Sheepdog · 12-17-2014, 04:03 PM

Does walgreens even carry tobacco products anymore?

ApexAZ · 12-17-2014, 04:05 PM

I think so. CVS does not though.

WaRevo · 12-17-2014, 07:59 PM

Rite Aide in my Area still does. Sad that the price for some of the tobacco they carry is sooooooo Crazy in price lol. 76 for 14oz of Captain Black Gold makes me wonder if they really want to sale the tobacco. It won't stay fresh forever... Some of the Bag Tobaccos they have i my area are about the right price maybe a couple of dollars more then online retailers but I can get it now... The Cob prices are a dollar or 2 more but again if I want a cob don't want to wait or get more stuff for free shipping RA is just fine. Now the last question! do I really need anymore pipes...... Keep telling my wife I do lol...

After Christmas I think I will need a new pipe or two. I might even get a bag of those cheap corn cobs 10 or so. You can never have too many pipes you know!

Congratulations Kevin. When P&C does their re-stock and you receive it, you can always post your sampler here:

Great suggestion Brian! Walgreen's does indeed carry corn cobs. They are the Missouri Meerschaum Legends in straight and bent stems, along with some various tobacco blends (OTC stuff). Each Walgreens is different in the amount of cobs they carry, but Kevin should check that out while he waits

Thanks to a great guy on this thread, I will not have to wait as long as I thought. I will post some pictures soon!
