The problem with ordering from England is that the exchange and customs fees often are more than any savings, plus the shipping costs are usually horrendous. I believe it's also illegal to buy tobacco from outside of our province because they want their taxes. I will check it out though and see if there is a way.
I will check out the blog if I find some estate pipes today, but from what I've seen from all of the research, it would be smart to snap any up from the thrift stores, even if it's just to hold onto them until I learn more.
Nah man i was just letting you know the English pricing because it should be the same everywhere round the world.
Make sure you dont spend a fortune on a $40 pipe.
I wish that were true but because Falcon pipes are made in England they ding us in Canada for all the fees to get them here. Maybe I will make a friend there though that would mail them to me and mark it as a gift so there are no duties and customs fees. 😉
The cheap Backwoods tobacco is over $40 for 50 grams here as well and so far it's all I have seen available in a store.
Try Ebay. I got my first Falcon Pipe as an Estate on ebay; cleaned it up myself easy, then got myself a new plymouth bowl. Job done.
