Cheap High Quality Bubbler

[ChiefKeefe]

Ya me too, ordered over 3 weeks ago and it "shipped" after 12 days but the tracking number has yet to show anything after 9 days. So I kinda think I got a fake number, tempted to message for a refund and just get the CCG. I figured a decent looking cheap egg would show up eventually, but figured it would be after I got my kathy egg.

Ya dont think i will be ordering from kathy again. All about money no care for customers. So much bullshit from her. The fact ive had my steven order for weeks when both were placed together is a joke. Plus steven has free shipping.

Not happy with this kathy lady. Also as i sit here really medicated I think of how stupid good of a deal all of this glass is. Is the possibility that we are supporting sweat shop workers real? Or are they just glass blowers and 50$ USD is a lot to them. I assume raw materials such as the gasses needed and the glass tubing is also much cheaper in china, along w/ a proper studio. The more i think tho it just seems to good to be true, but im also really evo'd out.

@PuffNStuff ya i agree fuck the frankstien stuff. More blowers should take not efrom steven.

Just placed an order for the FC-UFO and vertigo pillar piece. I'll let u know @blankrider about the vertigo but some will probably get it before me.

Thanks for the heads up @blankrider for the grenade piece. Unfortunately I already bought it lol. If it happens to function better I'll let u know. If not it's going in the glass for sale group lol.

Yeah he didn't say "and no splash wata" I'm gonna agree that it looks like he could easily take a drink though you might be able to adjust the water level. It does seem pretty high in the puck+recycler. At this point it just looks like they are throwing pieces together. I spotted a oil can + vortex recycler, they need to slow down with the Frankenstein pieces. I'm pretty sure most of them wont function correctly anyways. I would imagine that would leave a bad taste in peoples mouth and they would be less inclined to buy in the future. IDK just my

The oil barrel recyclers are copies of High Tech Glassworks pieces, but ya based on the pix doubtful it would function great. Also I own a puck recycler and that video does not appear to have the water level right. Mine vortexes great while drawing with the right water level and draw speed. Water level has to be super over to get any in your mouth. I recall another user saying theirs did not function well so this piece may be hit or miss.

One of my favorite things about dhgate glass. If it sucks I am only out like 30 or 40 bucks. I have paid for shitty meals equal to this. It is like gambling you could say and every pull is a chance at a jackpot or an epic fail

FC-186 Tracking is now working. No more than 2 weeks away hopefully

Awesome, please let us know how it is. I'm anxious to hear your reactions on the piece.

 

[redijedi808]

My D-Cycler arrived from growhighglass in 9 days. I knew they were a subsidiary or the same as CCG and went with this one since it was 8% off. I even communicated with them to substitute the bowls for a 14mm to 18mm adapter. They still included the bowl for flowers. I tend to get extras from the DHGATE sellers....not complaining, just an observation.

Anyways, they offer a discount for uploading here so this is my first run. Pairs very nicely with my 710 whip and I love watching the vortex.

**Sorry in advance for my loud exhaust fan**

My first puck-cycler had some stress cracks. Still totally functional. They sent me a second one after I sent pics of the cracks. Both function the same. The vortex is more evident when it drains. I keep the water level with the "puck" part almost completely full. I'm using it with an Enail. No drink, even on a hard clear with the nail's restriction.

 

[fcdeady]

I have the YQ-42 from sunshine its a good piece ,thick glass ,the mouthpiece is a little wonky but not much.It bubbles well with the frit and cage,I use it with a sublimator dry and with water.

Nice, thanks for the info! Is the matrix perc made properly?

@fcdeady The honeycomb straight tube seems to be a pretty common design among DHGate. That one with the splashguard looks like it wouldn't splash too much. I don't know how set you are on the two pieces you've linked to but I can link you two more you may have interest in.

This link to a page with multiple pipes one one page but check designs A & H. A is the double honeycomb tube and H is a single honeycomb bubbler cost ya $20 US shipped too. Design A is $28 with shipping.

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/d020-2-w-glass-water-smoking-pipe-with-two/197326134.html
This piece, D020--2-W, is a honeycomb to turbine perc. Turbine acts as a perc and splashguard, on top of looking cool when ya clear it. The turbine pieces I have hit have all had the turbine about 1.5 cm above the other perc than ~5cm. On this piece it looks like more functional as splashguard than perc to me, but honeycombs can stack! Sold from Sunshine for $33.49.

Also happened to stumble upon these triple honeycomb straight tubes while searchin:
Hjwufei - $37.73 - first one like it I've seen in black - http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-s...-filter-bongs/216608258.html#s1-0-1|964528429
Lilixia - $30.69 - clear, green, or blue, curved chamber - http://www.dhgate.com/product/glass...blown-glass/218110468.html#s1-14-7|3946899345
hope it helps!

Yeah, I've seen a few of those on DHGate. I'm not a big fan of the classig bong-style glass pipes. I was specifically looking for a honeycomb piece with a big diameter (>5 cm) and small height. The GB-186 is my daily driver and I love the smooth hits it delivers. I want to see how far I can go with diffusion so my next piece should deliver massive stacking. The D020--2-W has been recommended a lot but it looks a bit small to me.
The DG-102 looks interesting but I don't want to mess with crooked percs. So far my favourite is the YQ-45 because I guess it's hard to fuck up putting it together. Only the splash guard looks a bit prone to error. Does sunshinestore offer combined shipping? They have a few interesting adapters in stock.

Yeah I got my puck-cycler/ski mask on monday. No cracks that I can see. Same with me on the vortex, only when draining and only when the puck is almost completely full. Not the best piece IMO, but it is a nice short desk piece. I might grab a whip adapter and try to use it with my ecig setup. I like the fc710 much better.

 

[ChiefKeefe]

Think im gonna go deposit cash today and order an..

Does that mean I get a cheap puck cycler with stress cracks cheap.

Or did they make u break it!!!

On my YQ the honeycomb and cage are both functioning as they should..

@Shyneeholographic got that one. (Mrs. DieHard's sister). You got dibs on the next.

 

[Trogdor]

How long do you guys usually give vendors to reply? Kathy only shipped a quarter of my order, and I have yet to hear back from her regarding the whole mess which is concerning me.

 

[ChiefKeefe]

Kathy sucks and dosnt value customers.. Sorry to hear that. Im going to avoid ordering from her in the future unless its something I really NEED. Which was the case with this egg...

So far I would recomend steven and sunshinestore over kathy.

 

[Monsoon]

Well I just throughly medicated with the grenade... I'm pretty high but also pretty disappointed

It is so pretty in appearance but the function is not good at all in my opinion. I thought that it was supposed to be similar to a fab egg but it is not at all. There is a lot of drag and not much flavor. The Kathy egg functions so much better than this turd. This is pretty much my least favorite DHgate rig.

I'm guessing most of the drag is from the turbine perc at the top, maybe there's some variances between pieces but I don't find the drag to be too bad. I personally like how it hits but it does definitely seem to be more of a high diffusion piece than a flavor piece.

Ya me too, ordered over 3 weeks ago and it "shipped" after 12 days but the tracking number has yet to show anything after 9 days. So I kinda think I got a fake number, tempted to message for a refund and just get the CCG. I figured a decent looking cheap egg would show up eventually, but figured it would be after I got my kathy egg.

I sent her a polite "what's up" message after 11 days and then the shipping magically went active. I'm thinking in some cases she won't ship until you bug her. Her official explanation was "the post lost we sent again", yet somehow they were able to reuse the same tracking number.

Hey monsoon,

How high do you fill the water on the grenade perc?

 

[Monsoon]

Hey monsoon,

How high do you fill the water on the grenade perc?

Right now it's at the top of the first line of grenade squares.

Sent a reply to Kathy, I'll let you guys know what she responds back with:

Thank you it's working now.

I have several friends who have bought from you in the last while and all have been having same problems with tracking. Other vendors like cleanclearglass do not have this problem and always ship out on time with a working tracking number. Please try to improve your service if you want to keep customers, many have said they are upset and will not buy from you again.

And her reply:

very sorry this time ,this one really too late . 2 month we sell more then 1000pcs so really late. other products is all ok.

 

[Been Vapin]

One of Kathy's fab egg not available anymore. I bet she was selling too many and couldn't keep up production. She was at 900 sold not too long ago and was up to around 1300 sales of this piece.

Are recyclers known for the taste? I always hear ppl talking about tasting a dab for a few minutes after, but never experienced that. However, the hits I'm getting off this recycler give me that satisfaction. http://www.dhgate.com/product/8-7-inch-glass-recycler-amazing-vortex-recycler/216222776.html
The hit is very smooth but hits hard, if that makes sense. This seems to be my go to piece for the enail. Was using the fc187 (much more diffusion) and wanted more taste with my hits while still being smooth.

 

[Milwo]

Hi guys! I am looking at DHGate for a bubbler with thick glass, large base, and a bent neck. I have this and like it, but would like to have something slightly heavier/more stable, because I like to use different ashcatchers with different vapes, UC? Anything affordable out there? THX

 

[delloy]

I also ordered some 18mm-14mm reducers from Kathy at the same time I ordered a FC-187v2 from Steven. Steven shipped the bubbler the next day. I was still waiting for Kathy to ship the reducers 7 days later. She only shipped them after I messaged asking what had happened to my order. They did arrive after another 7 days but why the wait, others here seem to have had the same experience with Kathy getting the goods out even though she is supposed to be a seller with a dispatch pledge guarantee. Although it seems as if Im having a grumble....which I am, I still got the pieces and they were what I ordered so am happy

 

[blankrider]

Anyone know how high this one should be filled to? Just ordered it.

I own this one and having the water level a little bit below the uptake works best for me. It circulates the water nicely with no splash unless you suck way too hard. No vortex but good flavor and solid constriction. It is a great travel piece

 

[Erwin]

Has anyone bought from/heard of/encountered/seen/met/had dinner with/licked/prank called the seller Wcp15131? Because woah, is there some crazy shit over there. And some of it is actually pretty damn cool...

First, and what I'm most excited about, is this short, squat and hexegonal rendition of the d-cycler:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2015new-hot-sale-white-glass-smoking-pipes/233743738.html

Of course function is anyone's guess, but I frickin love my d-cycler and my only real complaint is that there's too much room for bubbles to pop between the perc and the uptake tube. This fixes that.



Then there's these colored matrix bubblers which might have some potential if color is your thing, although it looks like there's a label that we can't really see:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/free-shopping-glass-smoking-pipes-glass-pipes/233754866.html

There's also this take on the torus with colored glass. Again, it's anyones guess as to the function:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/2015new-hot-sale-white-glass-smoking-pipes/233700744.html

From here things start getting a little weird and wacky

One cool thing for everyone looking for desktop and whip pieces is that they have the largest selection I've pretty much ever seen. A lot of them are crazy and some are pretty cool looking, but unfortunately the color scheme they picked for all the glass they use in the percs is IMO pretty horrible They also all seem to include the round slide pieces that we all associate with hard drugs and sketchy-ness, which I'm pretty sure they believe is used to smoke cigarettes through these pipes

Ok, so this one isn't the whackiest but I'm mentioning first because, despite it's ugliness, it's pretty similar to something I was dreaming up a while ago over in Open Source Glass and I might have to pick me up one just to test it out:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/big-pot-of-glass-four-feet-three-blue-filter/233110287.html

Getting a little bit whackier we have the standard issue desktop-style cabbage:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/jade-cabbage-the-world-curling-curling-guru/233110294.html

If the standard cabbage is too boring for you, however, FEAR NOT! for we also have the light-up cabbage:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/the-lamp-jade-cabbage-pot-pot-base-water/233110253.html

There's also this ship-in-a-bottle perc which is pretty damn cool looking, and I might have to pick up as a present for my father:

http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/four-feet-smooth-glass-water-pipes-smoking/233110230.html

They also have a plethora of different variations of this same type of bubbler, all with different, unusual, potentially amazing and potentially terrible, somewhat artistic, often cool, and ugly colored percs:

I've honestly been trying to cool down my GAS recently, but this kinda shit isn't making it easy
Especially when that d-cycler is only $35 bucks
