Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Thats actually a great idea for halloween! ;)

Whats going on with those pre-order deals. Next we will see a kickstarter for a Goldstein knock off. I'd say don't support such sellers. If they can't even produce a prototype before they set up a product page thats kind of lazy and shady.

It is definitely weird, but he does have a reputable seller profile, only reason I even look twice at it. There is another seller on dhgate with a decent looking Roor bubbler knockoff but I don't even bother cause he has like 86% positive feedback and Minimum Order Quantity of 10 or so.

I don't know, whenever I look at pieces on dhgate or aliexpress I am really looking for looks, functionality, price and seller feedback score. I don't care at all if it is an original Chinese designed piece or a copy simply cause it is glass and I know I got it from China. If I wanted it for the brand and art and could afford it, I would buy original Toros and others all day cause a lot of them are so incredible!

Question: My Solo is arriving in a couple of days and I specifically ordered the D020 to pair with it. Do I need a "GonG" to make it work?

I had quite a few home made contraptions and was totally happy with them but once I went for the PVHE it really really changed my life forever ;) no, just kidding. Its not that the PVHE is that much better in term of airflow I think, or at least in comparaison to the setup I had, it is better but not a lifechanging but the true potential for me is the ease of use, it might sound lazy but believe me, I LOOOOOVE IT, it just IS made for it. They (PV) should sort out a deal with Arizer and be part of the kit when you buy it I think. anyway just my :2c:

I had also asked the seller which colors are available for the piece and he said he has green and blue. All the more reason to wait and see if he at some point uses or is willing to send pictures of his finished version!

Toro rip-off or not it looks like it would be a cool piece to rip on! Saw what I believe is the original on aqualabtechnologies.com for $770.
I would break it in 5 minutes!
There is no support for the vaporizer?

This Can't be right !
Over $ 200 for shipping to US , that's way more than the bubbler
itself . It must be a typo ??? or it doesn't belong in this thread .

Piece of junk!
No bridge support?
Plus the mouth piece is like a bong not a medical device.

I told her to send me the honey comb bubbler instead. Would need at least 1 adapter to make it kinda work or 2-3 to be prepared and because nobody sells those around here I'd have even more small stuff to order... yeah.

To be honest, part of my decision was influenced by a growing uncertainty if she got my wish for a fem. connection on the bong right (I guess she did not, pretty much my own fault).
So yeah, all in all, I got a second chance to think about an impulse buy. :rolleyes:

Was looking at that toro xl knockoff, was wondering does anybody have one? How is it? Will it fit a lotus?

There are lots of pending reviews for this item - after the first wave of shipments go out for this we'll see how people's impressions fair.

I didn't take the risk with the first-wavers because I think the vertical 4-slit perc looks cheesy. IMO the shape and color of the vapor dome is the piece's coolest feature. And I'm already fighting lung-lock when dabbing - I can't see how using a smaller piece would help...

@Herr_Dampf Good luck, my order for that item from Monday is still processing. I included the comment "I'll be taking pictures of this for my friends at fuckcombustion.com - can't wait to try it.":rofl:

edit: I also ordered a TI nail from Kathy, this one. Heard lots of "wouldn't trust it" and "mine are fine" but couldn't find links or specifics. I'll let yall know how this one does.

I got a Ti nail from Kathy Hu. It looked good and passed all of the tests but after a couple days use I started developing a sore throat.

I switched back to my quartz nail and the sore throat was gone within a day.

Thats just about the sketchiest thing i've heard about getting what you pay for when it comes to Chinese paraphernalia. Quartz is the way to go.

I've got a few, everyone that I've got from Kathy Hu on AE has been fine. The domeless around fifteen bucks is a steal. Seen it in head shops and other places (T2) lol, for $75+...

Doubt it. I have never seen this setup. She has a blue honeycomb oilrig and I remember her once having the exact same piece with a female connector as well.

This one:

Jhanpixel does something similar so maybe not that outlandish after all:

I'd imagine such a setup would produce more drag, but I may be wrong.
 
Are there any Chinese folks on this forum or someone with the know-how with Chinese business trading and business culture???

Is bad communication, lack of writing proper emails and poor customer care ALWAYS like this: Minimal?

Or is it just me, some European who does not get it?
yes I do and yes they are. It is either usually great service or diabolical. Not much in between.

Yep. Most of the time the bad communication has a lot to do with lack of language skills. Software translators are still not to great so yeah...here you go.

The Kathy Hu experience has been pretty much positive so far, except for the fact that they just set your order to "Shipped" even if they haven't even packed it yet. On the other hand, she allowed me to change my order to an more expensive item for free (was just 3 bucks, still a nice move). Communication was fast, I always got an answer the same day. Anyhow, it is my first order. We will see how they treat me the second time around. ;)

Guiseng Cheng's is the exact opposite so far. No communication at all; Order on sunday, no update until today when I requested my order to be chanceld; orderd to ship via TNT, vendor ships via EMS without contacting me; etc...
I wanted to give this store a try because the D020 was a bit cheaper with the faster shipping options than at Kathys, seem I have not chosen well.

As long as the stemline is done right there should be no added drag at all and it will help reduce chug and the whole honeycomb disc should fire better. Again though that's only if done right and it looks like it might be open ended which is not good for a stemline.
