Hi jfuste, repdetect, offworld and finbladerunner !
The short pipes I've ordered from Wilsons & co have finaly arrived home... Well, I have pretty bad news regarding these...
First, 7 were broken. I still don't understand why they packed them in such a tiny box, but I've contacted them and they agreed to replace the broken pipes, so no problem regarding this.
The annoying thing is that they've provided a lot of different models. I was expecting 24 pipes similar to the one seen in the hand of the asian lady in BR but only got 3... and 1 was broken !
The 21 others are of different types. Some of them really are beautiful but not screen accurate at all ! (the lady at Wilsons explained that "assorted cutty" means that they provide assorted models of short pipes... from their point of view that makes good sense, but it wasn't that clear for me when ordering those...)
So, what do we do ? If you want some of these I'm still OK to provide the desired amount... but if you want to cancel your order, well, I'll understand !
Here is a pic of the package, a few minutes after receiving it...
I'll try to post a better pic of all the different models I got in a future post...

DON'T WORRY! NEVER! I'm here... 
Well, I will offer you a rare deal. So rare than this: I'll get all these variations as original one for my "aside collection of Blade Runner items not movie accurates but funny ones" as well. When you receive the accurate ones, you send me the rest. Yes, it sound weird, but I love to collect, no matter WHAT!
Details in PM.
The box used is a riot.... What a ruin!!! Well... I expect better package next run...

Thanks a lot fro your support, Phil and Joan !
I'll keep you informed as soon as i get the 7 new pipes... Until then, I'll keep my fingers crossed : I just hope they've understood I was interested in the "asian lady" kind of pipe ONLY...

Box looks really thin stuff for such a fragile items.
I would be also fine with this "non-acccurate" claypipe version I we are not going to get better ones. |

Well, guys...
Got the 7 replaced pipes this morning... NONE OF THEM is screen accurate !
Don't know if WILSON'S people made it on purpose just to piss me off or if they just didn't care, but I start to understand why they usualy don't sell their production to regular customers, just retailers...
I'll post photos of the different models I have for sale today or tomorrow... (and again, no problem if you'd like to cancel your order, I'll understand)

We need to turn page and look for another provider... I guess...
And now, you know what I think about. No matter. I will get the pipes as I said. I love them (accurate or not)!
Cheers

Offworld, Finbladerunner & Repdetect,
Here are the non screen-accurate short pipes I have for sale... Jfuste already choose some because he was on the leave for a trip with his replicant wife !
Please specify which model you'd like to get when PM me. Then, I'll give you the total amount and my Paypal account adress...
BTW, the numbers in the red cercles give you info on how many pipes I have for each model... Please specify how many you'd like to get in your PM, Thanks !
A bientôt !
Fred

Of course Phil ! Thanks a lot ! (and I'll add another B type as a gift, since you asked for one more of these)
Finbladerunner's already paid for one B type (he'll also get one A type / gift), so...
OK Offworld, B and C types are for you... Please do not forget to pick one of these 2 as your free gift :
Type A : one
Type D : one
The Snake Pit pipe smokers lounge is about to welcome a few new members !
