Send your pipe(s) well wrapped up with a return address 
and the desired repair, to: 
Baard Hansen, Hans Hauges gt.23,
N-5033 Bergen Norway.

Please do not overstate the value of your pipe(s):
Stated value more than US$150/EURO 125
means your pipe takes a detour via the customs,
and an extra $16 / EURO 12 is added to your bill.

When your
pipe(s) are repaired, I will send you close-up photos
of the pipe(s) by mail, for you to examine.

Normally pipes are repaired within 14 days.

You pay using credit card via PayPals secure server
when  the repair is done.

"Thanks for doing a terrific job repairing my pipes. All three looked better than they did when I bought them. Your response time on the repair was great, and the pipes were shipped back in record time. The pictures you e-mailed were very much appreciated and gave me a good idea of how they looked after the work was completed."

Cracked
pipe bowl:
The repair consists of designing and fitting a sterling silver ring. This reinforces the pipe bowl. Notice that the ring is integrated into the pipe, not simply fitted on the outside of the bowl.
