Cheap High Quality Bubbler

I got 3 Kathy bangers - 10, 14, & 18mm female.

The 14 is a bit wobbly but still functional (I don't use thi though), and the other 2 are perfect.
I just bought one to kind of test the waters with her Quartz bangers and I was disappointed, maybe if I did what you did I would have found some good ones.
At the end I bought one from @Erwin and I'm very happy I did, it is perfect and super thick.

I have definately gotten an invalid tracking number. I believe they do that to game the DhGate buyer protection system that promises speedy delivery. I called them out on it once and my tracking number mysteriously changed...and worked.

Same situation for me too, only once so far. I had tracking # that was invalid for several days. Emailed the seller and they said everything was fine and not to worry but then then next time I checked the first tracking # was cancelled and had a new tracking # that worked and had just been shipped. The piece was shipped after the "ship by date" by several days.

@wildything I just spun the wheel and won $10usd off but have to spend $65usd

It COULD, although most user prefer a larger bubbler for use with vapes (more stable with a vape attached, some of the oil rigs don't have sufficient room around the joint for the vape to sit correctly). Also, it would help if you tell us what vape you want to use with it : )
Yeah 14 = 14.5.
I have a larger bubbler. I would want to use this one with a Haze, UD or Lily. Maybe a Solo.
I'm really confused on the differences between an oil rig, a recycler and an ash collector and which ones I can use with my herb vapes,

Has anyone had success with the spin the wheel on the dhgate app? I noticed it 3 days ago but it won't let me log in although I already am.
I was having the same issue using the dhgate app. I signed out, signed back in. Reinstalled the app on my phone. Same issue. I signed in using the menu in the app and then I tapped the spin wheel banner ad and it asks me to sign in again and I do and it says the page I was trying to access does not exist.

I used safari to access the dhgate full desktop version of the site and I logged into my account. I went to the dhgate homepage and clicked the spin wheel game ad. It says you have to place an order to play! Fuckers! Looks like they make you buy something in order to play. So I bet if someone bought something after March 2nd (the day the game launched) then they are able to play it...

Maybe @Dr200 can inform us if he bought something on or after March 2nd?

I know this piece has been talked about but has anyone bought one yet? Kinda want some first hand feedback before I buy one. It works out about $20AU cheaper than the D-Cycler for me.

Do those vapes work with your larger bubbler? A lot of people like full size bubblers with a vape, for a little more volume. An oil rig is (mostly) just a smaller bubbler with minimal diffusion. A recycler is a bubbler that has a separate tube to return water. An ash catcher is a smaller unit used (here at least) to connect to a bubbler to provide more diffusion.

It seems to me like the d-cycler needs bigger slits in its perc. I get an air bubble trapped in the perc and its a rather hard pull. Does anyone elses do this?
I wouldn't say mine has a hard pull but a little air bubble does get trapped like you said. It's definitely a more restrictive perc compared to a matrix perc but it is nowhere near as restrictive as say a 4 hole perc.

Maybe your slits are smaller than mine on the d-cycler? Consistency with Chinese glass is not a common thing lol. Some pieces may have too big of slits, some may have just the right size slits, and some may have too small of slits! That's why they are so cheap though.

I know it's not possible for everyone, but if you can buy 2-3 of the same piece then you can pick out your favorite and sell the rest. I bought 3 D-cyclers and I'm glad I did because one had a small dent in the base, one wobbled a little, and one was absolutely perfect :)

I have used this vendor several times and had good experience. Once, when an adapter came chipped, she cheerfully sent another.

Do they even make this??? I'm trying to find the cheapest bubbler possible, without sacrificing quality. I would also like to avoid anything made in China, because FUCK CHINA!! :ko: I'm new to glass and am not sure what characteristics make for a better glass piece; I assume that there is an optimal thickness, diffusion style (for vaping at least), etc. I simply can't believe that some pieces are $300+ but again, I'm new to glass and so probably would not be able to appreciate some of the higher end products. Anyway, I prefer something with a little less diffusion to preserve flavor (I believe I read somewhere on here that diffusion reduces flavor, of vapor). If I can't find anything sub-$80-100, I'll probably just get an Ehle 250, but I prefer the aesthetics of a bubbler versus any bong. Thanks for the help, peoples of the FC community.
Btw, it's for vaporbonging with a CRZ (shipped today :D).
And also, I have skimmed the other threads containing similar content; however, those threads placed emphasis on optimizing quality, whereas I am looking for the cheapest while not being crappy, so mods don't go banhammer on me pl0x ;)

You will get change from $30.
It pairs well with solo's and logs amongst others.
If nothing else it is a good cheap solid starters piece.
Several members here have one in their cupboards.

Hard to say what, "reasonably cheap," means to you. Different people will have different definitions in relation to their glass experience.

That said, here's a few very popular and affordable choices that are pretty tried and true around here.

D020: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/d020-bubbler-hand-blown-glass-vase-perc-water/175832535.html

D020-D: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/d020-d-bubbler-glass-water-percolator-smoking/187214099.html

FC-187 v2: http://www.dhgate.com/product/2014-...ong-birdcage/214701656.html#s1-0-1|1441015009

GB-187-1: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/hot-sell-the-newest-glass-bong-glass-smoking/188885599.html

GB-187-S: http://www.dhgate.com/product/hot-s...lass-smoking/229344799.html#s1-2-1|2713402855

Also the sellers offering the bubblers in these links have all been deemed reliable (or mostly so) here on FC. So you may want to peruse their respective, "shops," for other items if the ones I posted don't do it for you.

Good luck!

I'm using a D020-D with mine and loving' it. I find it to be the perfect size, volume wise. The only two things that I would like is the mouthpiece sitting a bit higher so I wouldn't have to bend over as much when I hit it, and I hit it sitting down. Also, just a bit less diffusion to maintain the taste, but overall, I like it enough not to order something else.

Thanks @Walter Bishop @lwien . Much appreciated I have been looking on dhgate and after reading quite extensively here yesterday, I almost have come to the same conclusion with some help from other members too. So glad I found this place :)

I'm learning fast! Have been a combustion freak for many years through water, but now feel the need to switch to vaping full time.

I have no "delusion" about the DO20.:dog: It was my driver for a while.
It was the gateway to my GAS. Now I have more than 15 pieces.

@lwien I just had to poke the bear.
