So I bought these pipes for $13. I know nothing about pipes, just that I saw someone else post about them once so I figured I'd take a gamble. Any thoughts on these?

You did very well. Humidors should fetch at least $100. And if you have any dunhill. Those fetch $50 plus each pipe. Dunhill sells real good. The pipe with horns should do$75 i am thinking. What name is on that pipe?
 

I didn't look any of them up, but at that price you can't lose. You do need to do a little research tho'. Look them up - I bet that at least one of them will recoup your entire $13 investment and the rest will be pure profit.
 

I picked up a Dunhill for 3 bucks and got 480 bucks out of it. Look on ebay for the pipe names that bring the bucks and see if you have any of those. Pipes made in England, Denmark & Italy do well. The Asian's buy old estate pipes because many still smoke with pipes. I never pass up looking over a pipe lot or any single piece. The right ones can be worth in the 4 figures. Good luck and I hope you find some big winners in the lot. Thanks for showing those.
