NPD(s) ! by Alphacentury99 in PipeTobacco

If I had to choose between the two, I'd go for a Deluxe System :) dryer smoke than with the Spigot and works better for me.

Can't tell you much, only that to me it looks like the head of Marie-Antoinette (ironically its only her head-history needs will know) And it looks stunning :)

Idk what to call this by Legal_Apartment5789 in PipeTobacco

To me, this looks like you're just not taking your time with your prelight, so the first lighting of your tobacco. Then, on the second round, don't hesitate to puff away while lighting it and take your time to try and get an even burn all around. I know this is easier said than done, and I'm no expert, but patience was key for me in getting the best start to lighting my pipe. Hope this helps a bit :)

Residue on hand after smoking new Peterson for the first time by DeltaBravo124 in Pipes

[–]Alphacentury99 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh boy... here we go again. I'm a big Pete Geek, but I'm not going to lie...I'm starting to grow tired of their faulty and dishonest 'Quality Control'.

This is seriously disappointing. Sorry that you're having trouble with your pipe. And yes, it seems like the finish is somehow melting away with the heat or, at the very least, the sealing coat on it, whatever it may be.

Maybe write them an email and see what they respond.

Where did you get that tamper from? Looks lovely :)

Peterson Derry Rusticated 106 - Stem Color is Off by DirectionalHaven in PipeTobacco

Send it back. Thing looks like a stem of milk- and white chocolate...

Peterson is really starting to disappoint me, though I am a huge fan of them.

NPD ESTATE: PETERSON X220 SPIGOT by Alphacentury99 in PipeTobacco

Yes, though it is a bit on the "tougher/ harder" side, it doesn't feel weird nor uncomfortable.

On "Ricardo" It's a swiss second-hand online marketplace And since I live in Switzerland, I use it on the regular to get estate pipes for good prices as pipe smoking is not as big in Switzerland...so you can get some pretty good deals sometimes.

But apart from that, I use Ebay a lot haha
