i agree about the flipper question on ebay. most notably with the hackerts lately. i have to say i sold several hackerts on ebay, but not in the intention to make money. i listed all mine no reserve and at a penny start bid and the winner takes it. i did make money on each, but that was def. not my intention. i also get a little annoyed with these sellers putting these pipes up for a substantial increase and have that increase be the start bid.
Reselling is the basis of the free enterprise system. Buying just to flip on a high demand item does rub the wrong way, but isn't much different than a B&M or Etailer getting pipes from companies and reselling them in their respective outlets. Doesn't offend me, but I would like to get the item at the best price possible. I would think that would be direct from the carver. thanks, gregg

I agree that I would prefer the money go to the original carver of the pipes. Hope you enjoy your night.
