Good Score?

Recently got this GBD 508 on a estate sale. Got it for $18.75. From what i can tell the pipe was only smoked a handful of times and the stem has very little signs of bite marks. It however does appear to have been dropped as it has a few scratches and the rim has a very minor nick. Overall im pretty happy with it and im pretty sure i got a steal.

I certainly think you did well.

I'd call that a win.?

See if you can get a good photo of the rim.

You may be able to lift some of that by running a bead of water or saliva around the rim and passing a flame across it to dry it. A light buffing with a manicure block can take out some of the rough edges.

Looks like a good buy to me. Enjoy it!
