Some quick seller reviews.

dhc_glass - MFE012 - I love this thing. It's thick glass and as described. Received in about two weeks.

smokingcity - 10 Styles Glass Reclaim adapter - Not what I needed in the end but it's true to size and arrived in a few weeks.

classicglass - Glass Adaptor Stand - The base isn't solid and therefor doesn't have enough weight to hold my banger with the coil attached. Arrived in about three weeks.

volcanee - wholesale drop down - Gets my log vape away from my face while using the MFE012. Pretty well sized, some slight play on the male side. Arrived in about three weeks.

judyvape - 30mm Bubble Carb - TERRIBLE, the worst sales experience I've had with DHgate. No tracking number, item should have arrived a week ago, wont answer chat, and wont refund my purchase. Their going to make me go through the entire dispute process. AVOID
That egg is nice - is the perc in yours horizontal or tilted like the dhgate photo?

Hello again,

i just want to show you this d020 bubbler , bought from qbsomk.
I can't wait to use it.
Since it is my first bubbler i don't have any comparison, but the glass feels heavy and thick. In my opinion good quality. So here is the picture, have a nice day/night :science:

edit: Forget to say, price was around 20 bucks...

That is a great start to a collection, I used to recommend the next size up from this, a D020-d as it had a slightly larger mouthpiece and volume. The latest version has exactly the same size mouthpiece so there is barely any difference to yours. Hard to believe they are about $20:tup:

Seeing lots of love for the stereo birdcage perks.

Maybe you’re like me and was looking for less percolation and something with less volume...?

Enter yingmin5’s GB-327
(Sorry, posted in plenty thread too)

I won't post a link, its a shameless knockoff.

Especially Great for portables because of its size.
Very low drag.
No issues with the transaction, packaged well in about 4 different bubblewraps, no box.
98% perfect
There is some uneven texture around where the neck meets the round mouthpiece, it can collect oil.

After using the three bongs I got from DHGate... I also have a slight preference for the smallest one... It is an oil rig style bong with a simple percolator (bird cage?) at the bottom. The vapor seem slightly more flavorful with this bong compared to those of my bigger ones.

Here are the two others I got from the sunshinestore... a d020-d and a d020:

So seller "glassdiy" doesn't get amazing remarks. I bought three pieces, a Y adapter and two "right angle" 18mm M>F adapters.

Pros:
-Free Shipping
-Relatively fast (1/17 order, 1/30 received)

Cons:
-Both "right angle" pieces are not actually right angles. If I had to guess they're somewhere between 95 degrees and 105 degrees. That sort of loose tolerance will not work for my purposes.
-When I brought this to the seller's attention, they requested photo evidence. DHGate has been very intuitive trying to figure this stuff out, but I promptly linked several photos for the buyer. They stopped responding at this point.
-After opening a dispute, the seller went with the most bizarre solution. They're refunding me the $9 or so the pieces cost, sending me two new ones, and for some reason requested I ship these two back to them at their own cost. The shipping from my side ALONE was nearly $19, and I only paid about $21 on this order, so I'm pretty sure they are losing out at this point...

Well hopefully their intention is to get to the bottom of the quality control issues and fix it and prevent it happening in future, hench then requesting the return. And they have recognised their obligation and duty to keep the customer happy and do the right thing (?:hmm::lol:)

This is what I hope anyway. Taking a loss on this transaction in order to try to improve the way their business runs for future sake seems like a logical approach.

@MothChewMoth my exact experience with DH Gate small glass adapters. Bought 2 90 degree drop downs and 2 Domed Glass Nail Reclaim rigs. One of each piece was off by about 5-10 degrees. This does not work well for a dab rig.

I do however love my small honeycomb bubbler I purchased from DHGate but it took 2 months to arrive.

TL;DR - I will not be purchasing anything further from seller "glassdiy". Not a great experience, so do business with them at your own risk.

Just wanted to provide the conclusion to this saga. It's now been a month and a half, and it's finally "resolved". What I mean by "resolved" is that the seller never replied past the initial agreement, then just stopped responding to DHGate also. After waiting around forever, DHGate just cancelled the order, refunded me my original purchase cost ($21) and apparently is covering my return shipping fees separately ($19).

On one hand I feel a little bad, as this wasn't my intent. I simply wanted the seller to send me the right pieces, not refund me more than what I originally spent. Now they're out the small pieces they sent me and obviously I'm leaving a poor review.

On the other hand...come on now. This was a pretty simple, small transaction. Why are you selling things on here if you can't respond to your customers? While it's not the resolution I wanted (and doesn't make sense financially), I'm sort of glad they're not going to attempt to ship me replacements. I could see this going back and forth multiple times, and at about a half month each way, no thanks.

I've learned my lesson, and will now only be getting adapters like this from OGB.

Alina0086,handshop,lumin88,driptips, rtglassfactory,bestglass,all vendors I have done multiple transactions with and had zero problems.
I will say every vendor with over a 1000 sales number and a 99% satisfaction rating I have used has been fantastic.
I see Chinese glass everywhere.

So when should I start considering opening a dispute do to not receiving tracking info? I’ve heard nothing from vendor fansfun and I’ve never had to wait this long for tracking. This is my first issue ordering anything on DHG. I don’t mind waiting over a month for it to get here, but if I need to open a dispute and order through another seller I wanna do that ASAP. Is it typical to wait two weeks for any kind of tracking info?
