Welcome to Briar Blues, where service is not a luxury.

Fee Structure

Minimum fee - $25.00

Commission Rate - 25%

 The big difference between Briar Blues and other selling avenues is that YOU the client set the asking prices for YOUR items.  We may offer advice, but the final word comes from you! 

 What we will accept are briar pipes of all makes.   We will no longer accept meerschaum pipes.  

 We expect all pipes to arrive in reasonable condition.  Pipes needing serious cleaning and refurbishing will be returned to the owner.  Or the owner may choose to have us send the pipes for cleaning at the owners expense.  Most pipe refurbishers charge $35.00 per pipe, plus shipping.
