Anyone get specific answers about taxes? I'd feel more comfortable ordering something if I didn't have to pay CA sales tax from a different state.
He charges tax on all sales (I assume he still does). I think he's mistaken about the process. CA only collects tax for in-state sales. The tax that out of staters pay is just extra profit for him.

I agree. I tried arguing with him about it but just gave up in the end.

My FC GBD bubbler has been regulated to ...... gasp...... combustion. I've never had the pleasure of using scientific glass to combust through, I'm really enjoying the experience.

I'm using mine with the Cloud at times, and it works well, but the regular price of $200, when you add about $34 for tax and shipping, is not much of a bargain IMO. I'm satisfied with the $75 discount I got, but if I were shopping there now I'd be looking at the bubs and wp's under $100.

I wouldn't pay regular price for the FC bubbler. I think some of his newer stuff (maybe he got rid of that blower I keep alluding to)... is looking good. I'm very interested to see the latest custom he puts out. It would be nice to see some more, true value HQ glass, at our disposal. I think the forum has picked up a nice collection of some guys that can make some really nice stuff for any one of us, in about any price range.

If I didn't want a Mothership Faberge Swiss Perc (or any of their pieces) so bad... I'd never spend over $300 again, I don't think. :lol:

I thought DI meant male and on the outside of the can. Mine is stemless on the outside of the can. Where a m joint would be on say a dg piece mines female. Nothing more.
As for sales tax: yes you pay ca tax. I'm in Michigan and was charged ca tax!

Ain't it the truth - Mothership is looking to be absolute top shit in scientific glass - but $1,300 for a tube under 12 inches tall, unworked?

It's certainly nice to have so many options for affordable glass now. Looking forward to a vid/review for that bub Bon Dog ordered. 80 freaking dollars!?

I was going to buy a piece from GBD.

This thread kind of steered me away.

Too bad, I rly liked one of their pieces.

Sam just sent me an update on the fritted bubbler. Barring any unforeseen delays my piece will ship by the end of the week. I'm pumped!

Can't wait to see pics, I'm very tempted to order the same design for myself. Would love to hear a review.

ya i saw that one, made me rather stoked! i couldnt find any dabs tho =/
edit: by my estimation i should have it by the end of the week (i figure they will ship it tomorrow b/c its 1-3 business days and i ordered it on Wednesday =p
i dont think ill buy glass next, prob a new vape instead, i feel like this will put my glass ahead of my vapes (singular) on the amazingness (is that a word?) scale

the only prob with stack vids for me is that i feel like the piece is too clean (usually) and i want to dirty it up! but most often i just feel like a dry hit like the one above is like foreplay.... the glass will feel let down if u dont hit something of substance... the glass likes to get high too ya kno

Actually... I think that 2nd video, is a dab. He starts the pull, early, gets pretty thick smoke ASAP and it trails off, like a dab. Also, it looks like I can see him pulling the dabber up and away.

Dirty it up? Why? Keep it clean, running at peak performance. Why gunk it up? That's only for coffee mugs. Your "scientific glass" should stay pristine. Unless you just mean, getting dirty, while playing. :D

Yuck...looks like by the color of milk that that person was combusting.. BDV, I saw that too with dude pulling something away, but I think it was his bowl that he was probably moving over to a bowl stand.. I've seen many a com"buster" do this and have another pre-loaded bowl on their bowl holder ready to replace the spent one..

Still...nice piece, nice firing perc..nested showercaps are nice Bon Dog, hope you enjoy!!

Sorry if I was feeding your GAS by showing you that Faberge piece man!! Lol. It is just too beautiful...

Vaped&Confused, I Need to see this fritted disc you're getting made for you! I'm picturing more of a lattice perhaps as opposed to DG's patent pending frit?? Can't wait for pics!!

There are a couple pics of Sams frit work on the website. It's supposed to be frit not lattice. I'll post pics the moment it's in my hands.
