I am somewhat sadly selling this pipe collection and many other collections part time for a life long friend and his widow.

I take the Virus situation VERY seriously and take all precautions with the
sanitizing
of myself, living quarters, packing boxes and
materials
, shipping room, auto, dog and the items I sell.
I am a self-imposed recluse, one man shop, Germophobe.
I use terms like "Used", "Near Mint", "MIB"(mint in box), "MINT", "Never Been Used", "Vintage" and etc. as honestly and literally as I know how. I am human(until well into the winter) and capable of making mistakes and If you think I have incorrectly labelled or mis-described an item please let ME know, NOT eBay.
As always, I will happily refund your purchase amount in full if you are not happy for any reason with any item.
Thanks for looking, I hope you can use this L'Anatra Hand Made
beauty
