Cheap High Quality Bubbler

Do they even make this??? I'm trying to find the cheapest bubbler possible, without sacrificing quality. I would also like to avoid anything made in China. :ko: I'm new to glass and am not sure what characteristics make for a better glass piece; I assume that there is an optimal thickness, diffusion style (for vaping at least), etc. I simply can't believe that some pieces are $300+ but again, I'm new to glass and so probably would not be able to appreciate some of the higher end products. Anyway, I prefer something with a little less diffusion to preserve flavor (I believe I read somewhere on here that diffusion reduces flavor, of vapor). If I can't find anything sub-$80-100, I'll probably just get an Ehle 250, but I prefer the aesthetics of a bubbler versus any bong. Thanks for the help, peoples of the FC community.
Btw, it's for vaporbonging with a CRZ (shipped today :D).
And also, I have skimmed the other threads containing similar content; however, those threads placed emphasis on optimizing quality, whereas I am looking for the cheapest while not being crappy, so mods don't go banhammer on me pl0x ;)
Look at TAG pieces. Imports but nice.

I was referring to that dhg one I quoted from @Shit Snacks earlier ;)

Haha yeah I still don't know if you mean, the straight fab, or the other crazy thing, trust me you do not want to buy the crazy thing... There's no on the other hand, it's designed by people who don't understand physics? You can just tell by looking at it that it cannot function properly, look at the funnel drain and the honeycomb sideways lol I mean it's your choice of course, there have been other people who took the chance, you can find them, there are videos, a bit of searching... If you mean the straight fab, I think that one is pretty proven, Gili Glass are legit at least so you could just wait to make sure someone else gets it to make sure the seller is good, but it seems like a much safer bet to me...

Shipping in the EU is a trickier thing it's true, but there are other people who ask and shared stuff for that in particular, the modular pieces can be tough to find, and there are some crazy ones that can be functional, that just wasn't one of them ;):lol:

Well I didn't quote the crazy one from you ;) so can't be that one. I meant the one I quoted from you in my post here

There is as to why I wasn't sure such a goofy design wouldn't work: other goofy designs do seem to work.

Haha yeah okay the straight fab, yes egg designs are pretty silly too! You're right, I did suspect that is what you meant as well ;)

Thanks for posting this. I contacted the seller earlier today who confirmed he also had the mk 2 version available and subsequently listed it here - I already ordered mine and will post it on here on arrival. I was able to purchase it from U.S. stock as well, seller said I should receive in 5-10 days.

Hi Folks,I thought I would tell you about my experience with TAG and their Made To Order option. I sent am email on May 18th in the format they showed. They replied the next day saying the color I wanted was out of stock but they had one similar. I replied asking about looking at another color also and if it was in stock.Never heard from them again. On May 24th I sent an email saying I was still interested but this was not a good start. Nothing. So I have moved on as there are plenty of good sellers out there.

Not sure what's up with the glass companies, but they should, like, install a phone or something. Maybe get one of their kids to show them how email works.

Well they did email me once so maybe the kid quit. I went to Dhgate and got the one @LesPlenty called big Bertha. Thanks for the link as it was exactly what I was looking for. And a bonus as it comes with the unique headshow perc😂

The taller Ehle looks to be identical to the less expensive Herborizer glass. Love that pinched mouthpiece!

I am looking at the 3 piece 18mm Goo Roo too, but the only similar glass are the Ehle and the Herborizer? I just can't find the right search terms maybe, but I'll probably get the Goo Roo since it's available, it's American, and a good price at 160. I just wanted to see some other pieces too.

So I guess you are talking about the HD3 at that price. That is the one I have and I really like it a lot. Pretty tall tho, especially if you use their mouthpiece with it. I had a custom MP stem I had OGB make me that is less tall and puts my face further from the can so I can see it well. They have a smaller 3 piece that is a 50mm can instead of 65mm and is shorter, tho otherwise very similar. It comes with a 14mm joint for the vape or bowl. The HD3 is available in either joint size. The smaller one lists at $120.

Sweet I ordered one yesterday as well. Shipping from China to Aus though so at least 2 weeks for me.

@pomogirl have used the herborizer for ~ 3 years now as a DD. Super easy maintenance removable/changeable mouthpiece/whip. I have the shorter version and only thing I don’t use for is dabs. It works but have other pieces.

Yep that’s it. I like the ability to use the whip plus there is the custom mouthpiece rabbit hole to dig into.
Show us what you find! There's some good stuff in the thread but it seems like mouthpieces aren't as common as you'd hope, or at least that's how it seems to me. @Shit Snacks posted a dhgate shop I think with any angle joint you want and that's very handy. Oregon Glassblower's flat mouthpieces are really nice, and probably has or would make any size. Or maybe someone local?
