DHGATE - Aaaaaackkkkk! :) Good/Bad Seller List

Ah, I see. I actually already have this piece (listed in my forum signature). I wouldn't consider it a sidecar piece, as the mouthpiece is inline with the GonG joint fitting. In my experience, a sidecar piece has the mouthpiece coming out on the left or right side of the can when looking at the piece from the business end, with a 90 degree bend to orient the mouthpiece towards you while looking at the bowl.

On a cheerier note, I think you'll really enjoy the Rattlecan!

I bought this Peyote rig too, for good measure!

I SO want that one! Next on my GAS! Especially love that mouthpiece. I had it on the bigger mobius clone steven has, but found that piece needed too much water for my liking. I'm going to pick up the smaller version as well. Planning a BIG Steven order since it only took 2 weeks from China to Canada last time and all 3 of my pieces were flawless.

Love this thread! Sharing our knowledge is power!

I've been enjoying mine since quite a while,be careful cause there is a bit of blowback ,especially with high water levels. Other than that it is just the right amount of diffusion for vapor + it is mesmerizing to watch how the bubbles shoot up the tree tubes ,just like in a futuristic elevator,also volume isnt too big so i found it rarely needed to remove the bowl itself so i can clean the piece out of vapor. With my tubo i just remove it ,to save myself the blowback to heater.

I know what you're going through! GAS sucks =/ I have been waiting on mine since it shipped after China holiday on 10/12. It went through SF customs last week and still it hasn't even reached Denver.

Cure: Just buy one piece of glass a week, and a few extra here and there. Wait until they start streaming in. If you time it right, you'll get a new pipe or two every week! Of course... this "cure" is worse than the disease, but none of us here are REALLY looking for a cure for GAS are we!

My experience with the glass that I've received so far from DHGate has encouraged me to continue ordering... so over the last few days I've hit the buy button 7 more times. I now have an even 20 pipes ordered from DHGate, only 1 confirmed scam, and 5 beautiful pipes received in perfect condition!

I'll keep updating this list over the duration of those orders at least.

Any of you fine folks seen this one on dhgate?

https://www.dhgate.com/product/2015...recinfo=8,103,1#cppd-1-5|null:103:r2071182504

I was considering it for fun, but seriously, it looks like if you just used the bottom half with the mouth piece you'd have a daily driver with the top part usable when necessary.

@ataxian dude, you may be cheap but at least you wont be sorry when a $$$ piece breaks! I have thought to save up for a nice piece but I have not proven myself to be careful enough to insure it won't get damaged.

I haven't broke it yet?
The mouth piece is too large (HUGE) for my liking.
Now the piece is pretty nice otherwise!

Maybe ogb (MIKE) can make me a smaller mouthpiece opening?

What can you expect from 3rd world logic?

GREEN is a goofy color for some?
BIG mouthpiece's were good if bamboo is all you had?
Clash of culture?

3,000 more year's maybe?

Cool if steven79 offered different colored clip's?
RED does not match?
He is not an artist for sure!
Smaller mouthpiece's offered as well?
@Hogni share this concept!

Since last update, both the Diffusion Pump and Peyote Pillars rigs have arrived from seller "stevenlmz79". I am thrilled beyond description with both pipes!

My first cleanclearglass sandblasted piece arrived. Breathtakingly beautiful!

Seller "justdoit66" has finally placed on the list, with a well-deserved problem seller ranking. Delays, arguing about a pipe being returned by Customs for 2 weeks (which he was eventually proven wrong about...) and finally more delays and problems and other idiocies and further delay tactics have made me hate dealing with this seller pretty thoroughly at this point.

Finally, we have our first bribe. Seller "dkglobe" offered to send me the pipe I ordered (which they would "not be getting again") and refund my money (which they are attempting to steal using a faked tracking number scam involving unrelated packages delivered to nearby postal codes) if I will move their name off this bad seller list. To think they actually found out about this place somehow! I told them to rot in hell... and I hope they enjoy the public exposure of their corruption!

I now have an even 20 pipes ordered from DHGate, 2 confirmed scams, 1 of those scams refunded (by DHGate), and 8 beautiful pipes received in perfect condition! Not too bad so far... for a few weeks work!

I received a pretty decent FC-186 from stevenmz79 yesterday, but no drop downs, which were in the same order.
I sent a message yesterday, so I guess I'll see how long it takes to get a response/resolution

@Chicken #420 , good day! I received my 2 dhgate pieces yesterday. One is the FC 186 from Steven. Very fast arrival from ship date, which was about 4 days after placing order on 27th October. Arrived 8th November in perfect condition as far as I can tell.

Neat packaging, no visible defects, and no customs charges they did ensure.

Very satisfied with Popular Glass.


I also received my small black Toro bubbler, the one in Vape Critic's FP video review and on Newvape's site.

Ordered: 30th October from: alexglass.

Arrived 8th November, same as above all good and no customs. Communication with the seller was good and all round very satisfied with alexglass over this transaction.

I originally orderd this black Toro piece from hfy_glass, but they messaged me a few days later saying it was out of stock and they could offer me a slightly different, more expensive and taller model for the same price.

They kept me informed, gave me time to think and respond, and then refunded my no hassle when I requested. So all good with hfy too.

lmao
Jane just replied to my message asking me to carefully check the box and the adapters "should were put in the bubblers"

I've replied politely to say everything has been unpacked, the bubbler has been used and no adapters were found... lol

[edit] replacement to be sent

DHGate shipping question. It has been sitting in the Beijing sorting center for about a week now. Does the EMS tracking show movement after China or does it just show up one fine afternoon?

The only notification I have after is the one saying that the parcel has passed the customs.
Generally I have my package two days after this message of arrival on the territory.

Yeah dont worry, my Dhgate tracking just told me it had been sent, or possibly left China I forget. I think it does actually specify that the tracking doesn't update for many destination countries so it will just suddenly turn up is the next thing you will know.

Yup, I asked and boom there it was!

So I grabbed this one in the pelican case and all

https://m.dhgate.com/product/ccg-fab-egg-water-pipes-glass-bongs-with/400399197.html

I am impressed! The glass was mint and beautiful. I'd never seen this kind of rig before so I was thoroughly tripped out and was confused until I put some water in there. Very cool. The small size allows for amazing flavor off my nail.

The add one are cool. The pencil dabber is very cool. All of the others are appreciated but that bottom tray is for my Auber and coil, etc. I'm going to size that out in the next few days.

Only issue is that the pelican case came a wee bit chipped, which was disappointing. I'll convey it to CCG but overall very very happy.

Mods please delete. Double post.

Yeah that one looks good. I would get it myself, along with the straight 9 (or 12) inch seed of life perc, (without fab egg).
It feels good to have a future acquisition list, no actual need as yet, just nice ideas to already have formed.
I'm glad you like the piece anyway and thanks for letting us know.

@Alexis and @Slagzord,
I bought a pink T-Rex "Dino Rig" fab egg last week on DhGate...
Does that count for an egg purchase?
