Sherwood stoops to a new, new low,even lower than before
Hardon742429436
pockets, just croozin the web for a spare set o' pipes and look what I find.
Yes, he's back at it..
Nothing like owning a brand new set of Hendersons eh.
Oh, and we all thought that Henderson was long gone!
Of course, if you don't mind them actually being Kintails, and actually being
made
by some high school kid who works at the kintail shop.
geez, we've got an almost limitless supply of "refurbished Hendersons", here.
http://www.cuillinn.com/refurbs.html
Now call me a cynic, but lets take a closer look at these "Hendersons", shall
we.
I'll translate in case you don't speak the language of "bagpipe dealer"
>Classic Refurbished Bagpipes
>Due to the many demands for antique pipes we've received over the last several
years,
Due to the incredible decline in my sales ledger, and an upcoming balloon
payment on the mortgage,
and the incredibly high mark up I can put on a set of alleged hendersons.....
CUILLINN CRAFT is now able to provide pipers with classic bagpipes by Peter
Henderson and other makers, fully refurbished and with new mounts, at
reasonable prices.
Oh really!
New mounts!
Yippee, who wants a real piece of elephant tusk hanging on their pipe!
Hell no, we want plastic!
And no charge for the gallon of spar varnish either!
Damn this is unreal!
>Our refurbished pipes come with all new stocks, blowsticks and imitation ivory
mounts, turned to exactly match the originals, with >our Kintail 2000 chanter
as standard, and set up exactly as our new Kintail and Glen sets, with cases
and accessory packs.
Our rejected Kintails that have passed through 4 different peoples hands, have
finally landed back on the shop floor
where they were given another slap o varnish, and then reshipped to the states.
>As these sets of pipes come in we will post pictures on this page with prices.
We'll keep the pictures real fuzzy though, wouldn't want you marks out there
getting wind
of my scheme.
>Some sets will have one or two replacement parts - be assured that the
quality will match or surpass that of the originals.
By the time your check has cleared, I'll be in Aruba blocking the sun from many
a tourist.
No guarantees of course.
> Original ferrules will be used when possible, and the sets will be as good as
or even better than the day they were made.
whatevers laying around is good enough.
Of course the pipes were made two weeks ago,so of course they'll be as good as
the day they were made,
at least for a month or two anyways.
IN STOCK NOW - P2 PETER HENDERSON
More where that came from too, as long as sharpe is around anyways,.
"Peter Henderson" is actually a nine year old who hangs around the shop, of
course.
Original threaded nickel ferrules;
Boy those ferrules sure do look shiny, how do you get that
shiny look on such an old(wink ,wink) original nickle ferrule?
all NEW projecting mounts, ring caps, and bushings;
No charge for removing that annoying ivory too!
Wow, I almost bought a similar set of plastic mounted pipes for 600 bucks!
Good thing you're around to keep those crooks in check!
welp, I guess since its NEW and all.
new blowstick and stock, new bass drone stock; new Kintail chanter, flight
case, full accessory kit, Ross sealed bag and Wygent Reeds - $1,750.00.
some crap I'm throwing in to make a really, really long run on sentence so you
think I'm being a real
nice guy and throwing in all these extras.

to face fights with Sherwood. I do not care for Sherwood and he does not care
for me for reasons we both have. However the NG is no the place for this kind
of personal attack.. If you do not like him than don't buy from him and what
happenes, happens over time. Unless you have seen the condtion of these pipes
or know exactly what kind of product they are your attach was unfair, unless
you have purchased and first hand sampled these pipes. Its always a buyer
beware market and the product will speak for itself sooner or latter. But this
open attack is unnote worthy.

I just wish that whomever this is would post his "real" name and let the
newsgroup know whether he is "credible" or not.....then........we can make
an educated choice of whether to buy from this fellow or not.
Chances are, this is someone who does have some knowledge, and wants to
provide some warning to the piping community at large (and this is the
biggest group of piping enthusiasts that one can get a mass message to)
You cannot tell me that if this was said to you in a group setting in a beer
tent that you wouldn't laugh along with the rest of us, and tuck that bit of
information away in the back of your mind and never buy from this guy again
if you thought the bearer of the message was reputable.........
The whole problem with this situation is not whether Mr Sherwood is credible
or not.........but the guy who is slamming him...........
I'm probably not going to end up buying a crap set of pipes from
him........because I know too much
but there are others here that aren't as fortunate...........
Too bad more pipers didn't have the balls to sign their names to posts!!
Sign your real name........and people pay attention........don't you think?

You are so full of shit Speed. You are also computer illiterate and
looking like quite the arsehole, or you'd know even your Deja.com posts
are easy to trace, and we have. Since you came on here with your "G is
great" crap, theres been no less than 4 new, anonymous, posters that
have appeared here, and Lo and behold they seem to post at the same
times (close) as you do, they all have the same message IDs, all
have "troll-like" qualitys, and all contain your 4th grade spelling
errors. They also appeared around the same time I blocked you from my
NG and private emails. Your on hullucinogens if you think that your
fooling anyone. Notice how few responses your getting? Nobodys reading
you because everyones on to your childish games, and has you blocked
(like I do, so save your sophmoric threats and dont bother replying.)
so save your anger for your therapist, because he or she gas a
looooooong road ahead of them.

I think even 4th graders can probably do better than 10 spelling errors in
two sentences.
