can you please put up the pics of the new colors now?

i bet the purple will look awesome wrapped around the pipe,heres an idea for you i just thought about,black glass fading into blue with purple ribbon glass wrappin,3relativly dark colors that should blend nicely.

only if i had money,then id be a customer.

whats your average prices per piece?

i know certain pipes will cost more,ect...

the colors are different until they go thru the kiln. the amber purple is clear right now. when you heat it it changes colors.


i am trying to work out my prices right now. i'm not sure where i am comparatively. i have sold a few for 30 dollars. i may need to lower that a little for now. :weed:

thats alittle high,but it sounds right,considering shippin cost. on average,my pipes cost between 15-25. my 30doller pipe is green and is filled with liquid. theres a yellow one at a near by head shop that has one for 30 that has yellow liquid in it. i want it badly lol. but shippin is what cost the most. try to involve the cost of the glass with the initial cost of setup,and base that into the price. also look at your store bought pipes and write down the approx price per piece,and put them into costly order first,then put them in order of the ones you like the most to the ones u least like,then jot down the prices in the current order and analize the creativity per piece compared to price and the value to you. thats just a tip that might help you decide. soon ill be a customer,very soon,when i get my new job ill have lots more money. do you offer any bud samplers too?you could use that as a marketing technique,offer a small amount of bud like 1-3g if someone spends like 200bucks on a bunch of pipes. it would have to be a mass order inorder for it to take in to effect. but you would have to figure something out,like trust value,private email accounts,ect. if you do the bud offer,you got to look out for your ass and do private listings,fake address. oh and sorry for the long post,but im just influenced by your magnetic creativity:clap:

still thats not bad,5bucks is not bad for shippin,but i think you should include the shippin cost in with the pipe cost,that way ppl know how much they are sending you.

i would much rather give you 30 for a nice unique piece over some high priced shitty work at one local head. they charge like 50bucks for like a 5in bubbler,then there are huge glass bowls that are like 150,you could prob easilly fit like 7grams per bowl pack. i freakin hate those pricey gay bubblers,i own one and thats all i will ever own.

Wow - I just read all of this thread.

You have come so far since the "ugly green pipe" that I liked so much when you started. Amazing how much you have learned in such a short period of time. I am jealous because I have always wanted to learn how to blow glass.

Now you should make me green with pink dotted sherlock bubbler, inline ashcatcher and a 12" double perc "fire and ice" GonG bong.





















J/K Just had to do it... LOL :bigjoint:

Did you ever quit smoking cigs?

Great job - Keep it up!
