Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Speaking of Steven......do any of you folks think we should give him a heads up that his reputation is slipping? Would it be worth it to write a "petition" of sorts, advising him that we want to give him our collective business, but if he can't meet some basic requirements, we will take our business elsewhere?
Is it even worth it? Will "cultural differences" prevent him from paying attention?

i dont think it could hurt. Im sure he would appreciate it also. the competition has became much better as of lately. i say do it. why not increase the quality of what we pay for lol

I was looking at the FC-Mod today and I noticed that someone else is selling it too. Anyone know anything about the bongglass version?

My FC UFO transaction with Steven was wonderful and easy. The piece is higher quality than most American glass I've owned, and isn't far below sovereignty's more recent work--it's a must own for vape bongers.

I ordered that 3 weeks ago and received it 2 weeks ago so I have nothing to complain about. Is it possible his service differs piece to piece?

Because he's kind of becoming the Chinese hopper labs with regards to this FTK stuff, and I wouldn't order a hydratube from him without some positive shopping experiences on that specific product.

Does anyone know of a good bubbler or bong that's 50-60$. I currently have the faberge egg from kathy, but I want something "different".

Well, you should probably give us an idea of what you are looking for, but just as a cold recommendation I would suggest either the FC-187 from Steven (or the GB-187s from yingmin5) or the FC-UFO from Steven. Those are my 2 favorite larger pieces, and are both (all 3) below your price point.

Anything that fuctions well and is smooth I guess xD. After buying the fab egg, I got addicted, and now I must buy more pieces. The pieces you recommended all look very similar. Why did you buy such similar products, and do they function differently? Also is Steven safe to buy from? Reading the replies of other FCers say otherwise.

Edit: What would be the difference between these two glass?

Been a while since I've visited this thread. Been wanting to pick up a new piece.
Found this from Kathy



Does anyone have experience with this piece? I know she only sold two, but maybe someone bought the same thing off another vendor?

Both of those are for combusting (large, multiple percs). We focus on vapor here, either from flower or dabs. You don't mention how you want to ingest your supply. Be more specific, and you'll get more responses.

I haven't seen anything. Someone mentioned the female joint is at an angle, that might be a problem.

I ordered the same piece over the weekend from seller2020 and will report back upon receipt.

I just got myself a jm flow mini recycler but of course that's not dhgate and is around the 100 dollar range but it's schottz and American made. All I can say is I like it that's for sure lol

Nice. It's nice to be reminded that there is western artists creating affordable pieces. China isn't our only available choice! I'd recommend you Usa-ers keep an eye on the Canadian scene seeing as the conversion rate is so rediculous at the moment! I'm sure they'll be bargains to be had

I have just removed 3 links to counterfeit glass pieces. And see that another mod has also removed a couple.

Let me repeat; we are not going to allow links or pictures to counterfeit pieces. This means pieces with a logo on them of a known glass company OR reference to it in the description (ie "Mothership New high quality torus and Klein Recycle glass bong Fab egg Holes 14.4mm joint High quality Thick Glass hitman glass bubbler")

I understand the logos, but banning it the description is being unreasonable as most listings now contain at least one brand name so that it comes up in more search results (even when the piece doesn't resemble a mothership or toro or whatever). You have pretty much just banned linking in this topic.

@weenstoned we have a rule here:

Public discussions of staff decisions are not permitted on the site. If you have any concerns or queries relating to a staff decision please take it up in private with a staff member.

Is it a stretch, since you all seem to have dialog with these vendors, to ask them to stop using the names of Glass makers in thier descriptions? I notice that not all do. For instance...

Listings like this are the exception not the rule, you're asking vendors to ignore search engine optimization which they likely won't do. I have no dialogue going with any vendors but odds are they will not listen. All vendors want is their pieces to come up in more search results. I don't see how a listing for a piece that says mothership in the listing but is clearly not a knock off shouldn't be allowed.

Since I opened up dialog regarding this with my comment, I will reply that we will take this under consideration. However, for now it stands.

I'd just like to respectfully suggest you reconsider. As has been mentioned 1) these vendors put EVERY frickin' thing resembling weed in their descriptions....it's stupid, I agree, but that's how they do. 2) We would have to make requests to multiple vendors, they would have to change multiple listings, and 3) They really don't care about our little forum, even if we do generate business for them. What they care about is making money, and they won't see this as a threat. 4) That would pretty much put an end to this thread - it's all about sharing links and reviews of cheap glass.
 
I'm looking for another piece for my enail and underdog. I have the fc710 and the fc1000. I am really interested in several of the mothership knockoffs. I'm drawn to ones like the klein and the torus. Any recommendations? Also how do the 'egg' style rigs compare to the klein and torus?

For the enail, I'd recommend a mini straight fab, it's the only cloned MS piece (besides the mini) that was designed for dabs. For the UD, probably any of the larger ones would be fine, I have heard the ball rigs are most popular with MS owners.
Unfortunately for us, they are complicate pieces, and this is where dhgate falls short IMHO. The simple pieces I have gotten, have all been pretty good, the complex ones however, had all had some sort of alignment problem.

My ftk from Steven arrived today.
Get this, it's wet... Like water was inside the packaging. It was well boxed. Labeled glass, and in 3 layers of bubble wrap. Vid/pix today!

Can you tell us more about it? How's the alignment of the parts, and appearance in general? Any weak areas?

I've been using my FC-Cake the last few days as a small e-nail rig. Working pretty good so far.
