Interesting - value of "rare" pipes
I would consider this pipe a holy grail find for a GBD collector, but $278 ??!!
Original price in the ~60s was $2.70 ! https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-NOS...rdt=true&rt=nc

Collector price can be unrealistic, but some will pay for these rare pipes. I prefer to spend that kind of money on new modern pipes.

The value of anything and everything is only what people are willing to pay. Even gold and money are only worth what the market dictates.
