Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Well clean clear glass can go eat a massive dick.

Quick recap of my issue with them:
Got an item - wasn't functional by design.
Was offered free shipping on my next item as compensation.
The next item wasn't functional due to a blocked off uptake tube.

I requested (well, more like demanded tbh) a discount on my next order of 2 items because of all the issues I was having.

One of the 2 items didn't allow shipping to Australia so I was waiting for them to update the listing to allow shipping to aus before I could place the order to be discounted.

I was annoyed but happy enough at that point.

After messaging ccg at least 3 times informing them that the shipping issue needed to be fixed, and the only response being along the lines of "there is nothing wrong with the item, please place the order"
So I tried the dhgate live chat feature to see if that could help me, an after explaining the problem twice, the rep said they weren't at their computer and couldn't help me.

Being very frustrated at this point, I sent ccg another message, with a more stern tone, basically I had to talk to them like a 6 year old.

Finally this worked, and they updated the shipping on the item, but then I get a message from the owner of ccg (before this all messages were apparently coming from mike - props to mike, he seems cool enough) saying essentially
"I don't like your tone, there's nothing wrong with our items, no one else has complained so the problem must be you"
He also said (again, paraphrasing)
"You shouldn't ask for a discount on anything, you haven't sent us proof the item is faulty, send a video of it not functioning properly or we won't send a replacement."

I was never asked to provide any evidence and would have happily provided it if I was asked in a professional manner earlier, but I don't like the owner being so confrontational and dickish.

So basically, because the owner wants to be a douche, I'm officially ruling out ccg for any future glass purchases, and honestly wouldn't recommend them to anyone going forward.

:(
wow dude, theres NOTHING i HATE more then BAD customer service. like ASSHOLES! if it werent for us, ud be out of a job u pos! funny thing is, on that site there is a piece thats runs about 160$ i believe, and i found it on dhgate for 40$ i believe. EXACT same piece. kinda funny

Thanks a lot for the update @Frederick McGuire

Super bummed out to hear that clean clear glass is being so bogus about things. I have never ordered from them and now probably never will unless I see you posting that they made everything right, apologized, and you didn't have to pay a cent.

We have a decent amount of buying power here at FC and I believe that we should stand together in boycotting specific sellers that do our members injustice. It will create a better market with honest sellers who care about taking care of our needs like sunshine store.

If we stand together we are a force to be reckoned with

Its a female 18mm at least I think its 18 . And I can't tell about the clearance either .
So I am waiting for a review .
As far as the DO2O goes .. I have a DO2O-D and I like it but I have a fucked up neck and have to lean it to the side to comfortably hit it .
I just figure a sidecar would be easier .
I would get the DO20-W-2 just didn't want to deal with an adapter .
Also considering a hammer but not sure yet. Suggestions welcome !!


Confirmed with Yingmin the joint on the GB-288 is 18MM female . And it is 7.5 inches(19cm) tall.

I don't think that is fair to the seller as he/she can't defend themselves on this forum. Not to discredit Fredrick, as I believe him.

But isn't that what the DHGate feedback system is for? CleanClearGlass is the only dhgate glass vendor I have bookmarked that has a %100 feedback rating. Not a single negative feedback.

Sunshinestore is close at 99%, but they also do a bunch more volume than CCG.

I didn't mean to spur on a boycott or anything :lol:, Just had to vent after receiving the crappy treatment from CCG...

I'd be happy to show anyone that wants to see the conversation streams from dhgate through PM, but I'm pretty certain its against the rules to post it in the thread.

I won't post any more about it until it's all finalised/resolved, but I will say I've had some issues with orders from both kathy and SSS as well, and they were pretty easy to deal with in getting things resolved...

I get where you are coming from @Tweak but at the same time I don't think the feedback is a good way to judge a seller and I say this for a few reasons.

First off lots of people don't leave feedback even when they are not satisfied.

I have seen negative feedback pop up for certain people that magically disappeared. Not sure how it got taken down but it seemed like censorship of the truth to me.

Just because you were once a good seller does not mean that you still do good business. And vice versa. Apparently people used to have regular problems with Kathy and now she has her shit together.

Even though I believe everyone deserves a voice I don't think we actually need clean clear glass on here to decide how they treated @Frederick McGuire is unacceptable. He has kept us informed throughout his ordeal and this was their second time in a row sending him bad glass.

If you are going to repeatedly fuck someone over and then be like "I don't like your attitude" then you don't really deserve the business of the FC community.

Just my opinion

The market has a way of sorting things out.

Is this the 4 headed shower perc?

Thanks for finding that vid! I ordered mine a few days ago and it is already shipped and departed China. Should be here later this week I hope. Will upload a video once I have it.

PS some pics do look pink because I think they have a few colors available. I asked for clear and they said they could send that so I think I will be happy with this one!

The perc is a little high and the stem is off to the right a fair bit.
But hey for $40 it's solid, looks good and works pretty well.

I know this is pretty much the DHGate thread, but was wondering if anyone had any experience with one of these.http://smokecartel.com/collections/...-lip-wrapped-oil-rig-bubbler-with-worked-dome

Any info appreciated. Thank you.


Nice pipe bro, smoke cartel is basically buying what we are getting on the import mkts. We all wanted this smoke tornado rig. Sunshine sold it for 35 bucks to your door, Smoke cartel was unloading them for I think 180 :disgust:

There are a lot of other vendors like Smoke Cartel.If you cant find it on DH or AE look around on Ioffer,sometimes you can find a tad cheaper than the greedy guys.Also some of the DH peeps welcome designs ,if your good at that, send em some pics and ask if they could punch em out and ask if yes ,how much?? If your patient you can basically look around and find what you like on the import mkts,and so what if you pay a bit more, anything in life has a price attached to it, you just have to ask your self if you want it, can you afford it?:cheers:

It's actually a better op getting the adapter with a keck clip imo. because the joint is too close you wont be able to fit the solo or cloud on their imo. It's also cheaper getting it with the adapter through SunshineStore
How is sunshine store cheaper? Their price is $43.19 while yingmin is $42.62

Not sure about the fit with other vapes but it fits my nano just fine

Reference needed on who "DH peeps" are. Are you saying these sellers will accept custom designs and produce a new design in a quantity of s one for a single customer? Do you have an example of a user-designed piece sold on DHG? Not trying to be harsh but I'm having trouble seeing how what you say could be the case.

I am messaging with a seller on dhgate he said he will make a sample for me . What I'm asking for is basically a GB-187 with a bridged sidecar mouthpiece. No logo. (His website sells blatant ROOR and möbius counterfeits.) He wants to know how many I will want. I am going to let him know that we are interested in buying singles from dhgate. I explained that the target is people who are using vaporizers on these pieces. I have not informed him of FC yet.

one such is
aifeng0603 & CCG both have told me that "if you have a hot seller design and we think we can build it we will. Please submit designs for review."
I have mentioned this many times and on some of their pages on their inventory, they talk about shipping prices and other specifics for ordering bulk.In a lot of their documentation is also a statement that they (most of the factories in CN) welcome designs.They are all about knocking off brother, just go ahead and hit those 2 up if you like. Some one, maybe their marketing people most likely look at USA glass and get their ideas from, but the 2 I mentioned have specifically told me to go ahead and give them the design.Some of them have mentioned that they dont have certain equip. to produce certain designs. but remember this if they like what you submit and feel that it will sell ,the show goes on. I also would imagine something a bit more simplified like medium /small bubbs, stuff we all like (GB187,D020, etc) . Look at the the few recyclers we see, the double barrel hitman KO, the mobius clone, most of the stuff we all like is somewhat a knock off of something we have all seen built in USA.I see what you mean by a single design for one person.but if your one design is a money maker yeah ,I think they will be all over it like white on rice!! Some one is giving them ideas, might as well be the people who really know.Their evolution is moving pretty fast.Last year they didnt understand the perc placement, now theyre learning recylers. Some one is teaching them and it might as well be us!

Hope this helps and you werent be harsh, just a GAS addict, :cheers: ......:peace:http://www.dhgate.com/store/17597968#st-navigation-storehome

Thanks for the info. From the two previous posts, it sounds in the concept phase. Oh I definitely get they will design anything that will be a big seller. But how can we preume to know what designs would be big sellers? Sure we talk about the buying power of FCers, but I've never seen any organized group buy or any commitment by FCers as a whole to a piece. And if that exists..seriously, how many of us would commit to buying a design? It sounds like they're business is copying famous brands, and if so, releasing non-labelled versions doesn't make much sense to me from their perspective. But maybe it's trivial for them to set some aside without labels.

I've spent time with CCG talking about custom designs, but there was really no commitment on his part to do anything. Good convo though.

Thanks for the reply. I know Smoke Cartel is shady. Thanks for the warning just the same. I just used their pic here. I spent about 3 days, (vaped out) looking up places with better prices.

Edit: sorry about the double post. It was posting them on a new page but I was still looking at the previous page. I need to stop vaping right before I get on here.

On a side note. I started page 420. What did I win?
