Starting price $2000 for a bedazzled Peterson? I'll give you one guess.

Look again...

...it's THREE thousand.

Sorry.....I couldn't help myself. We got Dillan a bedazzler for Christmas and Heath and I decided to test it out.

Messey Miker.

My sides hurt so bad from laughing, George, You are such a troublemaker, no matter how aware and right you are.What was your first thought? Like they say;There only can be one! (MM)

MM is in GA, that pipe is in FL.

so...it was Walt! trolling the internets for his own amusement.

I can see where Georgia maybe ran him out, and he fled south for his life.

Didja guys look at the rest of this fella's listings?!

I got a good laugh out of this one. The funniest part is that he picked a Peterson to alter. Might as well have picked a MM cob if you ask me.

Thank god he chose a Peterson. Imagine the blasphemy had he done this to a perfect straight grain Bo Nordh!

I'm still trying to see the "upgrades".

So, just to satiate my curiosity, I sent the seller a message asking you the person/artisan was who did the work on this pipe. I was pointed to the company at this website. http://www.arkadylungin.com/ They have a Savinelli done up in the same fashion.

Uh huh. Sure. We believe you.

It's OK if you are headed in a bedazzling direction with your pipes, Manny. Really. Nothing to be ashamed of at all.

Hell, Sasquatch has been experimenting with sequined eyebrows and sparkly lip gloss for months. It's the new thing, apparently.

Old hands like me are pleased to see you whippersnappers staying on top of market trends and, well... just being yourself.

Fine, I admit it. arkadylungin.com is just a cover for my real passion of bedazzling factory pipes. At least I'm making more money per pipe than most of you ever will!

Er, only if you sell 'em, Manny. Hate to burst your bubble.

There! Now don't you feel better?

10-4 about the money part, too.

In fact, why stop there? If a little is good a lot must be better, right? You should really heap the sparkle on a space-shippy one, get Kanye West to pose with it, and sell the pipe and the photo together in a special box for, oh, I dunno, ten million dollars.

Worth a try, anyway. Plenty of people spend more for less every day.

At least it's not partially upgraded.
