Do you by any chance have the d020-w? I'm looking at pictures and I'm wondering if it'll fit?
I just had a very bad experience with DHgate/Sunshinestore. Tried to purchase 21+ D020 at quantity price as advertised. Item quantity button would not work to accept order quantities over 20. So, I contacted the seller to advise of the web page malfunction and my wish to purchase 21 units. Sunshinestore's response was that they do not sell in quantity over 20, but if I wanted to order 50+ units I could order. I told them that I didn't want 50+ units, I wanted 21 units at the price advertised plus a reasonable shipping charge. In response to my protest, they then offered each unit at $20.00, shipping included. When I placed the order for 21 units, the cost at checkout came out to be close to $23.00 per unit with the shipping (approx. $170.00 for shipping a single large carton). I contacted the seller and requested that they honor the offer they conveyed to me, and they reneged. My complaint was then lodged with DHgate HQ which turned out to be an endless fruitless merry-go-round leading to a big dead end.I went through the system, and as I was trying to pay, it took me to a verification page to ask for my credit card information again.
This made me nervous, and I contacted them to delete the order and close my account.
I got no cooperation, and so since bank was open till noon today I went to the bank.
The bank manager went through this website with me, and contacted them to delete my information.
The bank advised me to not do business with DHGate.
They said they have had multitudes of contested charges that occurred a long time after credit card information was given to this business.
They went so far as to delete my credit card and issue me a new one, with a stern warning to not attempt to do business with them. They advised me that they currently have 4 open cases against fraudulent charges from DHGate.
Perhaps Sunshine store is an exception.
I am very pleased that you all have had such good luck with the company.
I however am following my banks advice, and I am out as far as that seller.
The banker took me online to show me some of the DHGate "publicity" photos.
Even though I bought my first and only D020 from DHgate/Sunshinestore some time ago, and it was a smooth transaction, I will never again shop at Sunshinestore.

That is kind of fucked. Did DHGate get you your money back and kill the transaction?
I did not finalize the transaction when the excessive shipping cost became evident at Checkout. DHgate was no help at all. Their communication/language skills border on ridiculous/incompetent.

Hmm,
I always had to put down the order, and proceed up untill payment. Then you contact the seller and he will adjust the price/shipping costs for you. Before you proceed to fulfill the order the seller cannot change the shipping costs or item costs for you....

Thanks @tepictoton - I tried that too! When I withdrew from the transaction at Checkout due to the diff in cost from that quoted to me in communication, I contacted them again and that is when they reneged on their offer. I reported all this to DHgate, but as I noted in the above post - DEAD END!Hmm,

How long did it take sunshinestore's order to reach you? It's been 5 days since any shipping update. Getting kinda anxious

Dude
Are you in the USA? 5 days is nothing. Relax and remain calm. Your glass will arrive

OK disagree with me, I can't force you to be right
Also May Day is a three day holiday over there so yet another reason to slow things up. I wonder what the Internationale sounds like in Chinese?

I have been waiting for over a week for my package to arrive in Spain(after leaving Shanghai)...strange planes they use in China lol or do they ship them by boat?

Shipped by boat your parcel might be in transit for 1 month.
More likely it's shipped by air but there are logistical delays ...as China is basically the World's manufacturer, can you imagine the scale of traffic leaving their ports and the logistical nightmares involved.
That said, still quicker than USPS...for me at least.

My d020-d arrived in Chicago two days ago, just received the update through dhgate. Took only around 3 days to get there from China as it shipped on April 29. Hope it's all smooth sailing from here

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Looks like a new one from Kathy...don't think I've seen this one yet, but apologies if I'm posting old news.

Good find! No support on that 18mm joint looks like a break is bound to happen. Looks similar to my hc piece from Kathy, stem wise at least, and I wouldn't trust that piece w/o the support. Although the TKO doesn't have one either it's completely different than this setup. Just my two cents though.

Can't wait for the reviews. Used my Mobius a few sessions this weekend and remembered why I love the Matrix. Hope the 187 can perform as good.

That thing looks tiny. Not much room for stacking. Like the design of the perc though, hopefully bigger ones to come.

I know folks have found some cheap ones on ioffer. Might also be worth messaging this store about singles of this one(183):
http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/quot-recycler-quot-glass-oil-bong-rig-glass/186419521.html
Seems the seller was receptive to the idea of posting singles of others so...
Might also be worth it to wait and see the quality of the 187, since it's the same source. Mine has yet to hit the states (as I think it's hitting the CA side vs NY) but looks like others will have initial impressions soon!
