Paid the goo roo invoice they sent my way, still haven't seen pics or provided my shipping address. I'm just eager to get it though.

You didn't provide your address in the invoice? Have you tried calling? If they're not replying to your email... May just arrive!

I just got the invoice a little bit ago, it's late here now so I'll just call or email them tomorrow. There was no field for my address that I saw, it'll make it to me.
I thought that sounded dodgy too, so many US glass sellers are full of shit and just about lie in regards to where stuff is sourced/made, maybe this is how GooRoo keep their prices low compared to other US price gougers.
I have only broken one bong since I installed my 'Post' to strap my glass down on. I am thinking of installing a color-changing LED pond light into the top of the post to light up my glass as I am digging the way the Puffco Peak Pro lights up the bubbling glass.

it is just a different perc action. As you said, yours stacks up bubbles like like a normal rig, the action on an upline perc is a little different. You can find videos on Bear Mountain;s insta and also check out a few videos of the GRAV upline to get an idea of the different action.

I have one of these somewhere and never found it useful for any of our shared favorites: not enough cooling for me.
I mean, it does work, very bubbly, its okaaay
And I think I'm going to try with one of these why not, could be a low profile mouthpiece for the gooroo, normally I would be annoyed it's not bent enough, but the orange three piece is so tall that it may be okay on the coughee table hitting from the couch... Could have other uses I'm sure, shame it is not colored, also shame there is not a 14mm one that would be a perfect FW7 mouthpiece with WPA...
Edit: oh you want to use it as a bubbler mouthpiece. I guess, I think mine might have had a janky joint as well. I think I know where to look for it....

Got Goo Roo my shipping information, now we wait. I don't know if they'll send me tracking or not, but it won't change when it shows up. Most importantly, I'd like to know once it's actually gone out. I'll post pics when it gets here.

Goo Roo got back to me and asked which of these I liked for the can. There was one I liked most, but I asked to see them on the can to see if it changed my mind on it, it didn't. It's supposed to go out today, so pics on which one when it shows up. Any experience with their shipping?

Very nice @delta hotel! I guess I should email them today instead of tomorrow, maybe they got what they needed so I can get my replacement mouthpiece... Those do look to be a little shorter than mine though, certainly less of a curve, I like that they have no logos though... Anyway the shipping is pretty fast to California at least! Few days

this one is a old piece of mine but a very cherished piece, if I broke it I would have to get another.

Classic style beaker is classic. Always a good choice, as long as the perc isn't terrible (which it is on a lot of the cheap ones).

GooRoo made me a new mouthpiece in aqua blue after all (no logo either) they replied yesterday, sent me the photo and invoice today, pretty excited!! I will have to be extra careful with this one, and someday hopefully I can find someone to put a new 18mm male joint on the orange one so I can use that again as well... all will work out!
Biao shipping has been a total mess though, blue saki bottle unfortunately stuck at international distribution center evidently it's a big bottleneck here, unfortunate that it went through CA customs instead of NY apparently! It was supposed to arrive on Monday, but never went out for delivery, despite saying it would arrive on time before, then it updated to say now arriving late, and has not updated since without any info... So yeah it's just sitting at the USPS place, for who knows how long, could be weeks or months before I see this thing, and the actual shipping already took 2 months!
Womp Womp meanwhile the large inline from Biao has tracking that was never scanned, makes me think they did not actually have one made yet, so who knows if that will show up even this year, tried messaging on DHgate and Instagram, cannot get them to even look at the messages... Sure they make great quality work, but I don't think I will ever be ordering from them direct again! Seems far better from Milesxdeep on Reddit or GreekGlass?
And I got a dispute opened for kokokoko to get my money back, still an ordeal, moving it to mediation, should get the refund at some point, soon ish at least! Annoyed how they sold me something out of stock, and kept telling me to be patient, but at least they saw and replied to messages! DJsmoke shipped out that new pink tentacle rig, and the other stuff enroute is all the adapters and such...

my purple fab egg arrived yesterday from chinabongfactory and I'm both happy and disappointed with it? first it's very small, well the can is cause the mp is half the length, total hight is just under 9 in. the colour is very dependant on the lighting, goes from purple in dim orange light to more clear and pink in bright light. the perc is a little different then what was pictured, their pic was a round edge with upward facing slits but mine is a faceted edge with slits going from top to bottom, which I think I actually prefer. on the plus side it did come with the purple base, it's just not very dark. moving onto function I filled it basically as full as it goes, equal distance from the top of the perc to the bottom of the egg and it has a wonderful open purr, very free flowing, I included a function video. tried it with my tinymight with a 14 male to 18 female adapter and the ergonomics were terrible , same problem with my Vrod , I really need those s shaped drop downs I ordered to come. while neither were comfortable to use the hit itself was fantastic! very smooth. it would make a excellent banger hanger dab rig as is but without the drop downs it's uncomfortable with my vapes. and I'm not even sure it will work with the drop downs as the base is quite small and it might become tippy? this one might just become something pretty on my shelf unless the drop downs help. I reserve my final judgment until they arrive.

Yeah I've been scratching my head about all these tiny bubblers from Dhgate and others. I agree that one looks like a classic example of too much stem and not enough can.
Admittedly I'm not a dabber but dropdowns don't appeal to me either: fewer pieces in my pieces please. I generally can't even be bothered to use my 18 to 14mm reducer and have dropped my vong into the 18mm female on my bubblers more than once.
The function video looks good. I'd probably just want the whole piece scaled up

The smaller pieces are more for dabbing, with the smaller can you just don't fill the can, more like a recycler with you inhaling everything, I don't know it doesn't look so bad but it is a little small... The drop-downs really do help with the ergonomics, and I love how they keep the water cleaner, so much debris goes through the screens!

Yeah the tall straight fab are more expensive, like my CaliBear one or that green one that was shared here... This ball could be small too, size can be tricky to know!

Got my Goo Roo today. I didn't have tracking so I didn't know what day or even what service would show up with it, so it was a nice surprise. Anyway, pics! I had trouble getting the color for the base to show in a photo, so there's another lit photo of it.
It's much taller than I expected, especially with the mouth piece, I'm just able to reach it from where I usually sit. Has anyone tried putting a whip of some sort on it?

Awesome! They sent me tracking for my mouthpiece today, always USPS, nice that you weren't worried about it and were able to be surprised!
Yeah it is a bit tall, you can actually try using a drop-down adapter for the mouthpiece too, I did that and it worked very well! Have not tried it with a whip as mouthpiece yet, but I have been experimenting with a wide variety especially now that I broke my original...
That color in the base of yours truly is a perfect moss green, it looks like live moss in the base!

I tried it with the 14mm drop down to the bowl and a 18mm drop down to the mouthpiece. It felt like too much going on, though I did prefer the height, thought not enough to use it with the awkwardness of it. I'd like to use my 18mm shovelhead with it but don't have a drop down in that configuration. I intend to do find one.
They nailed the color. I'm really digging it so far. I am curious about a whip, I'd be able to watch the can, whereas I can't now from my angle. I've never owned a whip anything though, so I'm not sure where to start or what would fit that if anything.

Yeah it becomes a whole thing haha with all the adapters... One of my mouthpieces allows me to view the can, it is a pretty great function!
So a whip is easy, you can get any silicone tubing, Rogue wax works has them now with nice mouthpieces... Then all you would need is a right angle whip adapter in 18 mm male, I have a few I don't remember where I got them, eBay probably, you can get them on Amazon, DHgate, many places and I think Rogue has them as well... Oregon glass blower has super thick glass adapters though that would match the GooRoo thick glass well though! Oh and Lamart wrapped whips are still my favorite, still have the one from my original tubo

Goo Roo update. I ordered the stuff to add a whip to it from Rogue Wax Works, I don't know if it'll function well, but I'm down to try it. I'm in love with the piece though. It functions way better with my FlowerPot than my other pieces, and it's the only piece I have that there's no blow back into the bowl if I don't pull it when I'm done with the FP. The function and water required is also better with my FP than most of my others. I need to try it with my FW7, but it's been so good with the VROD. It's easily a new favorite if not top favorite.
I may just keep it to myself, I have people come over that wanna hit or try things, but I'm afraid of someone trying to lift it by it's mouthpiece or something, so I think this one just stays my personal little treat. I'm enjoying it a lot.
