Those are just ETAs, they hardly mean anything. And with the chinese new year holiday if steven can get your goods to you by the 1st of march colour me impressed :-/

But hey if you're set on steven, try the sidecar FC-187. Apparently a decent bubbler, I might get one too soon.

Ahhh okay, I thought the ETA meant something. But then if I were to get the (famous) d020, which model should I pick? I saw there was one called d020-d for example.

Peace.

Get the D020-D first for sure. I actually wish it were a bit larger, and it's already quite a bit bigger than the D020..

I pair it with a Solo currently.

But yeah again, I'm also looking @ the FC-187v2 from steven.

Its just that the general consensus I think is that sunshine is a more consistent vendor

Does anyone know any europe vendors which sells a bubbler I could use for my arizer solo? I am searching the market right know but can't seem to find any head shop in europe that looks like it could be trusted and have the right products.

Thank you very much for your answers so far - it is really appreciated when being a noob in this market.

Peace.

You can pair it with pretty much any glass. Before I got the d020d from dhgate, I used a medium sized black leaf double honeycomb bong which I bought from EDIT. Which is in the UK so maybe check it out :)

Remember you need a gong as well... I think the PVHEGonG is available on VapeFiend if ur in the uk

I received a GB242 with a cracked weld from Yingmin a few weeks ago and just safely received the replacement today.

I'm very happy and impressed with his customer service. He didn't give me a hard time or make me feel like it was my fault in any way. Just polite, expedient and exceeded expectations.

Definitely be purchasing more from Yingmin in the future.

Lol, I just got my Yingmin GB-187-S. This is my first GB-187 series, so I can't compare to the OG 187.

Shipping was superb (bubble wrap on the exterior of the box!). The Perc on the 187 is stunning. Perfectly in every way, the cuts are awesome. The mouthpiece is also an improvement over the FC-187.

The base on both pieces appears to be nearly the same diameter. The only main differences aside from the perc that I see, is that my FC-187 is about 0.25 inches taller, and the FC-187 is maybe 0.5 to 1.0mm thicker glass. Still the GB-187-S is an improvement over my FC-187v1 with it's poorly cut perc

But here's some pictures of the FC-187v1 vs the GB-187-S

FC-187v1 on the left, GB-187-S on the right. - note the height difference.
Oodly enough, the mouthpieces are both angled nearly identically

Check out the difference in build quality on these percs. The FC-187 is on the left

And lastly, a great shot of how a knockoff matrix perc SHOULD look like

Personally, I'm going to sell my FC-187 to a combusting friend who REALLY likes the design, and keep the GB-187-S for myself

Yeah, I wish I had waited for him rather than going with Steven, but he was too slow and wasn't instilling confidence that he was ever going to make it. The piece I got from Steven as a replacement for a broken one is just short of usable with a bad perc. Bad enough that I wouldn't feel right selling it.
I'm tempted to get yingmin's but I think I will just wait for the Large Pillar.

Yeah, but in usual Chinese fashion, many vendors won't make a design by request, until they have another one to copy from. It's just hilarious in this case that Yingmin5 is copying Steven.

I've been using my GB-187-S and it fires nicely all around. I do see how someone doing dabs might get a small drink if they rip too hard. But since I'm using it exclusively for flowers, I have no problem.

My FC-187 works, but it doesn't properly fire when hitting it soft for a vaporizer. I pointed it out to my combusting friend. She doesn't care at all about the price I'm asking, she's more than happy to pay it.

@Ratchett thanks for posting the side by side comparison. Is your FC-187 the V1 with not as good of perc?

Did the Yingmin improve his perc since his original 187?

Is anyone able to post side by side pictures of FC-187 V1 and V2? I have been thinking about selling my V1 and getting the new one but I might just wait until V3 which will have improved mouthpiece

@blankrider It's the V1 with a very sloppy perc. Since I don't have the GB-187, I can't comment on how this perc compares to his original, but I will say all the cuts are very clean and evenly cut

Edit, woops! Almost forgot to mention two other observations

1) The FC-187 Can appears to be slightly larger in diameter than the GB-187-S
2) The sidearm on the FC-187 is a larger diameter than the GB-187-S (considerably larger, like 5-10 mm larger diameter)

That sucks, and I'm sure you already know the one that broke while Mrs Diehard was reaching for your IPad was your fault. ;)

But, maybe time to give that cat to her sister and send them both on their way. :lol:

Just another reason to love the cheap Chinese glass. Sucks to be out $75 or so on broken pieces, but way better than $700 - 800!

It was great. The cat went tearing off. I came back in the room and @Shyneeholographic (mrs DieHard's sis, made an account here but hasn't been back :whip:)was all big-eyed and like:o:o:doh::bang:. I laughed it off and was like, "it's ok , now I have an excuse to order a new one:freak::D" don't worry about it. Really.
She felt so guilty.

I noticed that in your pic. Is there any noticeable difference? I would think not as the smaller is still large enough...

Lmfao. Mrs Diehard broke one reaching for my IPad. Her sister and our cat conspired to break the other.

Well, that just means they were MEANT to be broken. Or at least that is what the women in MY life say...

I got the new Kathy Egg today it's simply fucking awesome. I have no experience with an authentic Egg,but i imagine this is how it would hit. I have the first honeycomb egg she put out and this one shames that one. This thing has intricate detail i imagine an American artist would ask at least $600 for this type detail. Overall this piece gets a solid 10 in all departments :tup:
