Essex, south east.

:( never mind, too far from me

im not a girl all those pictures were taken from this site i just went to the post your pics section and flipped through and grabbed a couple pics that showed the bowl. it was hard finding an empty one but if you look at the one on the bottom left you can kind of see the cone shape on the inside of the bowl.


oh and about the one on the bottom right. the so called last one. it just looks like a black hole because of the resin. really there is just a hole at the bottom smaller than a metal bb from a bb gun.

if youre still curious i could take a couple pictures of mine up close so you can see
i think im good. i can see on one of them quite clearly whats down there but of course those sliders are better ones than standard arnt they? or is that basicly the same thing that my standard bowl/slide will have?

slides use an o ring to secure the seal. its concidered to be less quality than a glass on glass connection like the one you picked out. when given a choice you should always choose glass on glass because it allows for a better seal.

id def go with everyonedoesit. i just got my order today. took about 7 days, not too bad. plus they have tons of shit, so make sure you get everything you want in one order. if you decide to get a nice water bong, id recommend a diffuser with multiple holes, not just one big one at the end. ice catcher is a must, makes for way nicer tokes. and finally go glass! i bought a cheapo plastic bong, worst purchase ever.

did you ever order anything?
nope, didnt need to. my girl friend bought me one.

its in a style like this:

http://www.everyonedoesit.co.uk/online_headshop/Straight_Red_Glass_Bong_With_Skull_Design.cfm?iProductID=4562

but the color is kind of, blue and white with bits of clear glass. its pretty cool. its a glass on glass slide and down pipe but the down pipe is stuck in with rubber if u know what i mean.

ill post a pic later on.

i tried some blueberry on it and it blew my mind. the taste was great and ive not had big bong hits like that before. i have pic of the bong and a loaded blueberry bud from when i had it (its all gone now) so ill post the pics l8er.

oh and thanks for every1s help. ice pik i tried to rep u again but said i need to spread some love.. :wall:

I really dont think they have anything to worry about in the uk when ordering bongs. they have headshops everywhere and you can buy and sell seeds legally.

even here in the US of A, i can think of 4 gas stations within 10 miles of eachother that all sell bubblers bowls and small water pipes..i mean, ordering waterpipes online really isnt that big of a deal..

well youll have trouble finding reputable sites that are based in the US (mainly because of operation Pipe Dreams) that will sell bongs. its easy to find them locally but not many retailers that i know of sell online.

i never said it was illegal to sell them. i said that operation pipe dreams took out most of the major US based online retailers. yes there are some places you can still find bongs online. but your examples are poor.
1. gorilla glass is not a retailer. they are a wholesale supplier for headshops. if you notice they have a minimum item number and total.
3. this link didnt work for me. guess the company got taken out with operation pipe dreams haha.
4. This isnt what i would call a reputable retailer(and ive posted that link on here before) This is a guy auctioning off bongs on some crappy ebay copy.


these types of sites arent what i was talking about. i was more refering to sites that sell name brand glass (i.e. roor, lux, illadelph, etc.) and are based in the U.S.

i know gorilla is wholesale, but the minimums are very low. I use this site for big orders.
3. www.shivadas.com i typed the wrong link, they didnt go down with operation pipe dream haha.

still there.

as for the auction guy, i havent done any barters with him. ive heard he is reliable.


these sites are more than efficient.
i dont see how they're poor examples in the least.

RooR USA and LUX USA are still up an running companies aswell, you just cant order straight from the horses mouth.

edit:

www.showmegalss.com

theres another domestic waterpipe shop.

:peace:

edit 2: you can also search for store locations for places like Manifest GlassWorks, Illadelph, BlueDot, G-Spot etc via google. if they have their own shops, you bet your ass you'll find em there.

and PS...its hard to know what specific pipe companies your talking about when all you said was
"well youll have trouble finding reputable sites that are based in the US (mainly because of operation Pipe Dreams) that will sell bongs. its easy to find them locally but not many retailers that i know of sell online."

be more specific if you're gunna shit on the information given to help the question asked.

I have talked with purepyrex personally and can tell you he is great on giving deals. You can take a good 20 bucks off anything on that site and hell easily agree. obviously the more you spend the more hell cut you a deal


youve provided fine examples of bongs that can be bought online but i was more referring to specific brand name bongs. i listed a couple of brands in my last post. i never said companies such as roor and lux arent still running. i was talking about how these companies specifically did not have an online outlet for ordering bongs. Also show me glass is a great example. they are one of the only ones that sells a brand name bong like what im refering to(EHLE).

i wasnt trying to shit on your information just saying that it is harder to order bongs online from US retailers because of Pipe Dreams.
