6 weeks for the D020How long, if you don't mind me asking? I've been waiting for a Kathy D020 for a month now and am starting to think that it's gonna be the second time (out of two)I get shafted from DHGate![:\](/i/s/hmm.gif "Hmm :\")

Hey Hey
Thanks man, I can be an impatient bastard at times. Good to know that China post is pretty shit for everyone
Schadenfreude?
Perhaps

mate you are being shafted by Kathy, not Dhgate.How long, if you don't mind me asking? I've been waiting for a Kathy D020 for a month now and am starting to think that it's gonna be the second time (out of two)I get shafted from DHGate
He has definitely "heard from someone", but I seriously doubt that that is the reason for his production delay. If he could get some off of the production line, he'd be selling them (with or without labels) IMO.
How they would be handled here on FC is another matter entirely.

Hey guys: someone linked to the Wtoshop188 store above and after perusing their site I just pulled the trigger on this SQUARE, HORIZONTAL bubbler!

Didn't wake up this morning thinking I'd buy anything like this but hey, for 30 bucks I figured I'd give it a shot. Thanks to the poster who did the leg work on finding this one. Who knows, this unorthodox approach might be just the thing for us vapers (note how it has a gong and a hose attachment!). I'll let you all know how it works once I get it.

I have enough friends in real life to help me buy a 12 pack of GB187's so i'm gonna do it. I will plan to sell 2 or 3 here on FC classifieds when i get them.
I messaged yingmin asking if they can come without logos on them....
Also i bought a D020-2-W to be a travel piece, maybe i should have bought a different one for that purpose? OR maybe i should have bought 2? Also is the D022 18mm or 14mm? the images on the store don't say...

18mm
I opened a dispute to get my money back, it was more of a tactic to find out why Kathy wasn't answering my messages, and it worked. She hasn't send it yet after 13 days, and is asking me if she can send me a different color, I said no, I told her she lied so I asked for my money back. She could have told me at the beginning she didn't have it, and I could have waited, or choose something else, but no, she opted for a lie, so now I'm asking for a refund.

Some members have had good experiences with Kathy. Mine was like yours. Personally I dont give people like that second chances.

Kathy is OK.
6 weeks some items.
5 days some.
She's at the mercy of the manufactures.
I have enough stuff to keep busy between orders.
In western culture honesty is apart of our cultural compass!
In EASTERN cultures they have have a different compass!
Patience is a virtue!
Spend more if you want it now!
I can have a nice piece for $300 this week or $30 from Kathy and her time frame!

On the subject of buying multiple rigs, FWIW Sunshine has 100 of the D022 made. I hope he sells them all. I think he has been the most reliable, I used to deal w/Kathy in the past but I have noticed a lapse of communication from her.
I have asked numerous times about the double inline rig that appears to have open end percs.I asked her to take a look ,she replied OK will do. Waited a few days (4) and hit her up again on what the status was and no reply, waited again and asked for the 3rd time and never heard from her again. Crummy way to treat a returning customer.
Mike Lee steps up and communicates well, ships at warp speed, has now been making function vids and keeps numbers low for the time being.I would rather support some one like him who WANTS your biz, not one that makes a weak effort at satisfying their customers. Lee seems really motivated at single sales and Im sure he sells large lots also,so this guy knows how to run and gun with out a doubt
Kathy IMO is a bit unreliable and not able to manage her customers wants,to each his/her own on using her, S.S has most of anything you need and if he doesnt he seems amiable to try to get it for his customers. Yingman5 seems to know how to manipulate, and thats a part of doing biz with the import mkts I guess. As one poster had mentioned,"surprised most of us have had a pleasant experience", and for the most part we have been pretty happy with the merchants who have been relieving our GAS pains.
I cant make anyone do a thing but may I suggest to try not to cave to the higher prices,Im sure these vendors will move like a stadium wave to higher prices if we start buying them.It will be a domino reaction and one day you'll click on and all import glass will be 70+ dollars for what we were buying for 28-35 bucks.
Then for the most part I for one will look at USA glass. The run of China glass will be a thing of the past once it starts moving in an area of comparable numbers to USA glass, well at least for me. Great artists like @Jhan Pixel, the 2 new glowers who have been pumping out the recyclers will get some of my coin,I would imagine they can blow some nice vapor or dabber rigs. We shall see. Lets hope our biz contacts do monitor these forums and see we are your demand and if you should mess with the numbers on the supply side, oh well ,hope they have use for a lot of glass paper weights.......

I find that when you come across a reliable and trustworthy vendor it is worth sticking with them. I try to be mellow but I tend to become enraged when people lie and/or mess with me financially. I will still try new vendors but i really love Sunshine Store. They are so consistent and I value that highly. I had a good experience with a new vendor recently. I bought 2 Pax copies and 2 pairs of Beats headphones. Excellent service, speed and quality. I dont care if I lose a few bucks but it is the time and energy that really pisses me off.
