Welcome to Second Hand Smokes. If you are interested in pipes and pipe smoking, this site is intended to help us get acquainted. I am Gary Malmberg of Sacramento, California, USA, and pipe smoking is my life. I have been a pipe smoker since 1965, a serious student of pipe lore since 1993, and an estate pipe dealer since 1995. Today I earn a living entirely by selling estate pipes and smoking accessories from my home downtown near the California Capitol Building. I call my operation Second Hand Smokes and I sell primarily on eBay. Perhaps you have seen my auctions, and you may have explored my big eBay Store, which is full of pipes and accessories for sale at a fixed price. Items there are inexpensive and expensive and everything in between. I do not sell anything here on this website, but on the left you will find links to my eBay Store. Go to the Storefront page to use detailed links and custom search tools. I buy pipes and pipe collections, and I also take pipes on consignment, to sell on eBay or by other means. Bring up the Consignment page describing my status as an eBay Registered Trading Assistant and see details of how I can sell your items for you. Second Hand Smokes has always actively supported pipesmoking activities in the Sacramento area and in the Northern California region. I founded the SPCA (Sacramento Pipe Collectors' Assembly) in 1998. This pipe club meets at my home twice a month. For details, go to the SPCA link. Our club is a member of UPCA (the United Pipe Clubs of America). I encourage you to use the UPCA link to visit their website and learn about other U.S. pipe clubs and the pipe shows and other activities they sponsor. Through the SPCA I founded the NCPS (the annual Northern California Pipe Show) and I directed the first eight events, which are now conducted by the Fresno Pipe Club. The NCPS link will take you to their page providing details of the next show.
