Your Thoughts.
never was a fan of that shape but from the peeps that i know that have it, love them.
I have never owned a calabash, but the BCs are the ones that have tempted me on the occasion when I've heard the shape's sirens call.
You're asking a bunch of PAD addicts if you should buy a new pipe? :p
The answer will be yes from us, almost always yes :D
But in all seriousness, I have never owned one either. The prices seem about right though...if you have one lined up pull the trigger :pipe:

What is this, a trick question? Of course you should! :pipe:
The question isn't whether you should buy one, the question is whether you need one.
The answer is yes to both.

Tough call. I have an old one that was gifted to me by a very kind member of poof, I like it a lot. I bet a new one would be nice too though.
This is why I love pipe section, and also why I don't smoke or get involved with pipes.
The thread title looks like it's just a joke, but it's not. Which is some seriously funny ish.
Come to the Dark side Sean.....come to the dark side..... :pipe:Quote:

Take the Emperor's advice & grab a cob. Drug store tobacco can be has for a few bucks a pouch too.
You'd be crazy not to at least give it a try :wink:
Sean, I'm going to need your address. I'm not going down alone.
To the OP, YES! You should. @Heath has a calabash that he posted a picture of in another forum and it's really very nice looking. I'm jealous.
