Shipping's a *****. It's going to be $700 for calf on the U and F lasts.

I'm going to write up a post and take this thread to B&S.

So you have pictures of shoes you can get or can we order whatever we like?

Is there anything really worth buying in Hungary besides Tokay and shoes? This could get interesting if their economy implodes.

Where does one shop for pipes, besides actual stores? Do you know of any websites?

I second women and pottery and add food.

There's a pipe shop close to Vass with some Hungarian handmade pipes, and some old meerschaum that are very, very cool. There's a hat shop and a button shop in the same courtyard. Otherwise, no idea.
