    When I first saw this, I thought "That's insanely high...



    TEN DOLLARS FOR SHIPPING...oh, it's international. Nevermind"

    I offered $35.00 just to see what a 4k pipe looks like, and he accepted it......
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    LOL! Now you can buy that new camper and tell the Mrs. you're paying for it with the money you saved

    But seriously, maybe y'all can help me out with something... Present pipe aside, the pipes that actually sell for $Ks - what is it that makes them worth that much? I can tell the difference between at $30 Dr. G and a $150 pipe, but I don't think I could tell the difference b/t a $150 pipe and a multi-thousand dollar one.

    Other things like vehicles, firearms, boats, guitars, adult beverages - I completely understand the price/value relationship. Not gettin it with the high-end pipes though.
    You oughta know not to stand by the window, somebody see you up there.

    Heck, I don't know what makes him think it's worth 4k. I do know that if I'm bored, I'd pay $50.00 to watch monkey's screw, so $35.00 wasn't that bad....

    Well I think in the case of that particular pipe, it was probably a typo, i.e., the seller thought he was entering $40 for the starting price and hit a couple extra zeros, maybe thinking they were on the other side of the decimal point.
