Avoiding eBay while shopping for pipes is an intelligent decision, in general. That said, OC Richard and a few others on here are fantastic resources for identifying some potentially good opportunities on eBay, and possibly more importantly, avoiding some major issues.
Adding my own $0.02, I bought a set of pipes off of eBay that were brought to my attention via this thread, and I was happy with what I got. If you scroll back a few pages, you can see the pictures, but the gist of the story is, I spent a few hundred dollars on what I knew was a bit of a lottery ticket. Once they were in my hands, I could see that they weren’t a jackpot, however they were definitely quality pipes that look and sound gorgeous, and should have cost significantly more than I paid for them.
While not an expert, I am always happy to help out when and where I can, which I think is true for the vast majority of people on this thread and in this forum.
….if nothing else, I find the pipes posted in here to be incredibly interesting and the discussions fascinating.
