Lighters - Kiribi Pipe Lighter - Kenshi Black Matte
Trash
This lighter stopped working almost immediately after I got it. Sent it back to Smokingpipes but I’m honestly confused as to why they don’t like to give our return labels for faulty products. Weird.

Lighters - IM Corona Pipe Lighter - Old Boy Gold Plate Barley
Terrible lighter - worse customer service
I bought this lighter expecting the top quality of IM Corona’s offerings in both fit and finish. Immediately after receiving it, the finish wore off and then the lighter stopped working. I contacted Smokingpipes and I was told that they would not give me a return for this faulty product and that the warranty does not cover the finish. I’m so conflicted because I love Smokingpipes but they were just wild disrespectful and unhelpful for a $200 lighter that ought to be a product that lasts a lifetime. Will make my purchases elsewhere in the future.
Aleister Crowley: The Beast That Inspired The Beast
  • ► It seems that most people with common sense share the sentiment that surrounding the background of this blend in such a wicked person is ridiculous. You could have named it after a monster or something. The fact that you named it after an actual human monster which the very article states was an abuse with a cruel and evil nature but he is praised for his “literary contributions” is wild. I understand this tobacco blend has been coming out for years but at this point I don’t want to support C&D after this article confirmed to me that yall know fully well how much a disturbed pervert this man was, who literally encouraged people to sacrifice young boys (whether or not he did/ believed such things they still have an effect). For a man that Satan deceived into thinking he was the antichrist, his moniker “the beast” fills me with sadness. Don’t be self deceived like this man if you are actually into witch craft. Repent and believe in Jesus, he will take your burdens and confusion and bring you peace and healing.
  • ► Not true. The Bible states that you should loves your neighbor. The parable of the good Samaritan is where Jesus shows that people should actually love people that are racially and culturally different than them. No one who is actually a Christian and a child of God who follows of the Bible, would ever do whatever heinous things you’re thinking of. Jesus says that the people who loved him follow his commandments. If you love, Alistair Crowley, and then you follow his commandments, which are to rape, murder and blaspheme. The two forces which you have mentioned are diametrically opposed.
  • ► Might as well make a Hitler blend then. Your morals are weak.
  • ► This blend has been coming out for years. Do not expect it to be rebranded especially when plenty of “Christians” buy it anyway. I believe it was the first small batch released almost 10 years ago but I’ve just decided to never buy the blend because I was uncomfortable with the background of it. The straw that broke the camels back for me was the in-depth article articulating his absolutely sinister acts and ideals. There is no excuse now to speak of just using him as a part of the cultural zeitgeist. You literally spelled out every disgusting reason he should not be a mascot for your blend and your own conscience ought to offend you after this long-winded depiction of an untalented clout chasing pervert.Also side note, so many C&D blends taste much too similar to me. I just don’t enjoy the way they process their leaf so sadly even though they are the last big producer in America I just don’t need to buy their blends anymore. Watch City is where my money is at.
