I am rather new to pipe smoking and don't have the money to afford a bunch of pipes i am only 18 years old in college. mom and dad don't support me on smoking anything and I was wondering if anyone had any old pipes. Quality does not matter to me i just need some more so i can start a rotation. Even tobacco anything that can be spared i greatly appreciate.I am paying for college on my own and like I said have pretty much no money. I really appreciate it guys thanks again, Anthony

Just a thought here. But you just joined today and your asking for handouts already. This is a great community that will no doubt help you out as you go along. I just suggest that you establish yourself a bit first.

Cheers,
Brad

Agreed. Puff is an amazing group of people and someone may take you up on that. However, spend some time here, contribute to the group, in many ways the proof is in the pudding. Stay committed and it will pay off. I look forward to seeing you around, I'm glad you are here.

poor taste my friend, poor taste. Wanting to receive before making any attempt to give should not be looked upon favorably.

i know that you are probably a great guy and you may be in need of help but i can gaurantee there are a lot of people who need aid and they are not asking for free stuff on here but rather trying to make friends and have a place to go communicate to get your mind off the stressful times well thats at least what i do. Take it from me ive been helped out numerous amount of times make friends dont expect favors this is a place to make good friends not get free stuff
thanks, eric

Here is a link for free Altids brand pipe tobacco. They usually send several 1.5 oz pouches of various blends. Good luck.

Pipe Show Online - the smoking pipe and tobacco show for everyone

I hope to see more posts from you in the future.

Really? I mean, COME ON. Dude, not cool.

Yes it is true, people sometimes hook each other up on here with goodies. But that is because we are a community who are taking the time to learn a bit about each other. We may not all get to hang out in real life and share what I will call a "B&M Friendship", but we respect each other, and just like in real life, make determinations upon the character of each other. Right now, your blatant panhandling is not helping your chances.

Hang out for a bit. Ask questions. ANSWER the questions others have, if you happen to know the answer. SHare funny, touching, maddening, or otherwise memorable pipe stories and related tales of adventure. We all love to both spin and read a good yarn. If you have favorite baccys and pipes, visit the reviews page and pontificate at will. Share an opinion, and take the opportunity to absorb those of others.


OK. Chastising aside, WELCOME!!!!! Post away, and have some fun

I guess I'll hold off on asking everyone to send me all of their tobacco...

You can buy some cob pipes if you are in that much need, they are $5. Hold off on the beer for a weekend I am on the side of "give a guy a fish, you feed him for a day, give the guy a fishing pole, and you can feed him for a lifetime". Sometimes I just hook guys up, but probably not this way.

Definitely go for a corn cob. If you can't afford the $5 for one then really the pipe slope is one that you shouldn't be headed down. I mean no disrespect in saying that as I am a poor college kid too.

Agreed

Hey my friend. First off welcome to puff. No doubt a great place to learn, chat, and make friend from across the globe.

I know in college money is tight. But for the cost of less then a night out with the guys you can get setup.

1 corncob pipe-5 bucks
1 czech pipe tool- 2 bucks
1 bic lighter- 1.50
tobacco - 10 bucks

total 18.50 or the cost of 2 beers and a cab ride after an exam without tip.

You don't really "need" anything. It's a hobby, not a necessity.

[Cigary]

Gottta agree with the boys on here. Coming onto any forum and just "asking" for something without first establishing yourself as to who you are does not give me the warm fuzzies. I can't understand why someone would do this in the first place as this has never been socially acceptable and while this forum has always helped people all the time anyway just does not leave a good taste in my mouth for somebody to walk in and announce they WANT something. Here's a good idea, think about it and then return with some kind of apology that demonstrates that you "get it" and then become a good member. That is all that is required here.
