1. Are you being paid by or are you affiliated with any of the individual sellers on Ebay?
Nope.
2. Will visiting this site make the items I buy on Ebay cost more?
No. If you bid on an item you first saw here, you will not pay any more for it than if you had never visited this site. All I do is arrange information about what is on Ebay and provide links.
3. I saw a pipe on Ebay that I don't see here. Why?
I can't promise to present every pipe auction on Ebay nor do I intend to attempt any such thing. Not by myself anyway. Contact me if you see something you think I should add here. I am always open for suggestions. Meanwhile, I strongly encourage you to browse this site and then shop as you normally do on Ebay so you don't miss a thing.
4. Why don't you have a page for ...
I haven't added it yet. Contact me if you believe it should be here.
5. I am a seller on Ebay, and I sell mostly pipe stuff. Would you be willing to link to my store or auctions?
Absolutely - so long as most of all of what you sell is tobacco pipes and/or related to pipe smoking.
All you have to do is ask. No strings and no cost to you.
6. Why this site?
Because I am a pipe smoker and want good things for our hobby. Those who work hard to make great pipes available for sale on Ebay are providing a great resource and service to pipe smokers like us. I want them to do well. It is in all our best interests.
Also - I wanted to see better ways to browse pipes on Ebay.
7. I won a pipe on Ebay that I saw here. It took eight months to arrive, it was broken, and smelled like a bucket of dead salamanders! What are you going to do about it?
I would never intentionally present any auctions here that I know could end badly for the buyer or seller. I hope all the auctions I link to on this site will end well for both parties but unfortunately there is no way I can guarantee it. If you have an unfortunate experience on Ebay there are existing mechanisms at your disposal to resolve it. My involvement would not be practical or helpful. (Note: I have never received such a complaint...this answer was for informational purposes only.)
8. How can I help?
Spread the word. Let your friends know there is a new way to shop for pipes on Ebay.
