Like I said before I'm new to glass but this has one perc and others have more. Isn't more better?

Humans have 1 heart and 2 kidneys. That doesn't make the kidneys inherently better.

Also, different percs do different things. Sometimes you want to minimize the drag of your pull. Sometimes you want to maximize diffusion. Each perc and piece is gonna do that differently, and everyone will have a personal preference as to which piece of glass works best with any given vape/method.

Especially for vaping, it seems like smaller pieces are a bit nicer because of vapor production dropoff making it hard to milk big pieces, or to get clouds that you can hold.

EDIT also, more diffusion tends to mean less flavor. For people like myself who love flavor, too much diffusion is definitely a thing.

Hahaha great analogy!! Clears things up a bit. I will be hooking up my vape n also dabbing. I kno I'm getting into noob questions but generally what's good for those two methods?

As a general rule, you want a small piece with minimal diffusion for oils/dabs, and a small-to-medium sized piece with low-to-moderate diffusion for vaping.

As an even more general rule, throw that out the window and get what you like :)
I personally prefer medium-to-large pieces with lots of diffusion, so that's what I use for dabs and vaping.

I would start messaging her maybe that will put pressure on her. I just told her ship my package today or refund my money. I threatened to file a dispute( which she hates) and also threatened to leave bad reviews on here and DHGATE if she didnt comply. I was just trying to get a response I doubt it will speed up anything but if enough of us hit her with BOMBARDMENT!!!!:goon::horse::horse::goon:

As others have mentioned. No, more is not always better. With combustion/smoking - you want MORE diffusion. With vaping, too much diffusion will rob all flavor from the hit!
Believe me, I have a few glass pieces I cannot use for vaping because I can hardly taste anything! The fun part about cheap glass is trying several different types of percs to see what you like best.

============================

Just tried to place an order on Dhgate (4th order) with sunshinestore. And now it's saying my credit card is refused, not verified by the bank! Strange because this is the same card I've used the past 3 times without any problem.....

Can you guys give any suggestions? I've tried 4 times this morning! Even tried to sign up for Masterpass and use the same card, with no luck.

Found this, don't really get how it functions but it's a perc inside a perc which I thought was kind of neat...
but idk..

also have a clear version : http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/mimi-glass-bong-oil-water-pipe-18-8mm-nail/197886083.html

I thought this was also kind of neat for vapors because of the bent gong

My bud @Frederick McGuire was looking for a kind of 'party bong' piece and I thought this one was
alright for the price
http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/big-high-water-glass-pipe-bongs-double-honeybome/200001366.html
or this honeycomb to turbine
http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/big-glass-water-pipe-glass-bong-2-honeycomb/197274567.html
(which I thought was kind of neat because the turbine is more realistically placed in the tube so you could get a nice turbine effect easily)


Honestly though i'm not overly crazy about any of these pieces though..
What i'd really like to see (and I hate to sound like a broken record) but
some hydratube knockoffs like their mini side circs + i'd like to see some smaller can
Sovereignty stemline gridded pieces with the grids facing up.

Anywhoo..:uhoh:

Wrote to Mike @ SS store and inquired about him making replacement down stems for D022.I told him a lot of us like the rig but downstems are almost the same price of the rig here in the states. and a few memebers have broke them.One poster said that his replacement that he paid 24$ and said it didnt work as well as the original .
I could use an extra so I told him produce some replacements and his response was:
"ok, i will make some extra spare parts for D022, the down stems will keep the same as the origin one. thanks."

Well if any of you(@Ataxian:cool:) like that rig, might be a good idea to get another D.S. and I hope he sells em in lots of 2 like his adapters:peace:

I feel ya brother.I think Im gonna have to resort of doing when I 1st met Kathy and our procedure a year ago was you ordered it and basically even though hard to do,FUGETABOUTIT...... and in a months time they would show up.She;s never been a ball of fire and who knows, might be a part time gig she has with this glass and you have to be on her clock of doing things. Nothing deters her from dragging her ass so its best to just not hold your breath, she aint no SS store or Yingman, and TBH even the new guys we have picked up are on their job getting shit out in a timely manner. I will admit its a PITA at times dealing with her, but for the love of import glass and prices,in the long run its all good.The only thing we can do is offer other glowers that we know and ask them to create or procure the rig. Competition has got to be fierce in that country !

Very well said.
If you don't want to wait buy at a higher price.
Want the low price?
It gets there when it gets there!
Tracking Number? (really?)

Have a D020 in your arsenal!
Order stuff and wait!

At least you have something to do!

I use Kathy all the time.
Tracking Numbers?

Different Culture!

These even gonna work??

Yup, and I'm excited to see them available too. I haven't tried a reverse perc before.

Like @Tweak said... It's not the wait I care about. It's her lying and what not...:2c:
Click to expand...

I just got a message from her, from my understanding she is waiting for her bulk order to arrive so they can divide and ship Monday. So it sounds like she is hoping for them to be in tomorrow. Or she is lying again, :D.

I see it from her side, it would be hard to maintain inventory and gauge interest on new pieces. With such a small profit margin, they have to run things tight. Sucks that she is gaming the DHGate system like this, but it keeps prices low, keeps them in business and keeps the new pieces coming.

No excuse but I've dealt with much worse CS.

Do you have a D020?
I find them perfect for the SOLO!
Click to expand...

No, currently a Grace Glass bubbler is my only one, after I broke my other piece which was a weedstar one. This cost about the equivalent of $80:



It's a good piece but I quite fancy the D020-D too (although like many would prefer a sidecar ver). DH Gate only recently seem to have put sensible prices on shipping to the UK (where I am) so i'll probably pull the trigger on the D... But, it'll have to wait until next month, I've already way overspent this month (2 x snappo's blanks, 3 x Ed's stems and an exotic E-nano).

Hey @Ratchett I had the same issue about a month ago. I tried placing an order with Yingmin using the same credit card I always use and it wasn't going through. I tried one other credit card and 2 other debit cards. Same issue. And not all cards are from the same bank so I knew it wasn't my banks fault.

I chatted DHgate support and they asked me to contact my bank while they look into the issue. I called US bank and everything was good like I figured. Chatted DHgate again and they said a tech was looking into my account and the issue should be resolved in 24-48 hours. About 6 hours later it worked :)

Why do u guys like the d020 so much? There looks like there are better pieces, no? It just seem a little basic to me
Click to expand...

Mine just came today, I'm staring at the package happily. :) After an exhaustive search of higher priced glass, I chose it because I think it ideal for a vape like my Solo--low diffusion and air volume, short/wide/centerbowl for stability, and those who own it rave about it. Sometimes simpler and less expensive is better! :o:tup:

Edit: I bought mine from Sunshinestore, and it was 8 days from order to my doorstep. A-fucking-mazing! :leaf::peace:
