Christmas came early.

GB-187 sailed right through, a huge upgrade for me.

Also, my custom WonG from Ed's TNT came. No more broken GonGs.

Can't wait to break both in tonight.
A carbed version of that WonG would be amazing. I'm waiting for my 187(186? I forget) to leave China.

So... after reading this thread for a while I pulled the trigger on a pinnacle pro water tool knockoff. First time order from DHgate. I was encouraged that it was shipped so fast but that excitement slowly grew to disappointment as it appears that it is "stuck" in this phase:

Origin Post is Preparing Shipment, We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.

Is this normal?

I've seen several others mention that it takes 10-11 days, but this is a bit longer than that.

Should I be contacting someone about this? Or just keep waiting? How long do I wait before contacting someone?

You can message the seller and ask what's up. Are you checking the tracking through their site? Try tracking through USPS website.

Ah ha! I contacted Kathy and asked her to see if she could acquire that double cycler because the other seller only sold lots of 10 and wouldn't do a "sample sale" on one. Glad to see she came through. Now if I just had the money to get one! Lol

Got my Igloo mini bubbler yesterday from Alina0086, I :love:it. Been holding off for so long, so glad I snagged one.

It is wider than I thought it would be, fits well in one hand. For $26, IMO it is a steal.

Water levels are so easy, I overfilled it just too see its limit and I didn't drink any, :tup:. Really love the style of the perc too, takes up very little space but diffuses like a champ.

Only Con is the quality isn't the greatest. The glass feels rough and there is a few defects in the welds, but function wise it is awesome.

AWESOME! Happy to hear it I bought the same one for the same price from RadiantGlass two days ago, and was shipped yesterday. Hopefully it arrives before the holidays!

Dang! I'm crazy for that double recycler! If I hadn't spent so much on glass this month! It will be my next purchase. I hope you all get good ones and she keeps them in stock.

I hope that she comes out with an all clear version soon. I don't like that drip, it is all wrong.:disgust: I almost ordered it right away and didn't notice but then I saw the bottom pictures without black background. I would almost settle for the blue version at this price but it is not an option.

Down facing slits should not be a problem. It would be nice if the joint was not angled so much

Indeed. The yingmin5 honeycomb on the other hand doesn't looks so functional. With the joint weld and the return tube on the same level, the tiny recycle chamber and the honeycomb so low... I don't know. I have a recycler with a honeycomb and the design is pretty much the exact opposite and it works perfect, that kinda makes me even more suspicious.

Got it cheaper than list price but the store that sold it isn't around anymore.

Anyone having problems with their shipments? I ordered a piece on Nov 4th and it seems to be stuck in Hangzhou. Tried tracking it on the DHgate site, USPS and 17track.net.

This is the first time I've ordered from these folks. How long does this usually take?

Fab egg just came in from Kathy:love:. I was worried the circ and/or egg section would be janky but this thing is on point. Absolutely perfect function, one of the best pieces on dhgate hands down. EDIT: Shipping took 12 days, package was stuck in China for 5 or 6 days.

Has anyone had broken glass on arrival from Yingmin? Just wondering what kind of series of hoops I will have to jump through to get this replaced.

I already messaged him on DHgate and sent pictures showing the break

So I received my A/C Swiss perc, works great! I like it a lot through a Sherlock pipe, the roor it produces is really satisfying, Harley style :rockon:

BUT it has weird black marks on the inside welds.

I wrote to the seller and that is his answer:

That is the charcoal when blowning. Really sorry for that.That is no harm.Do not worry about it.
Anyhow,if you do not like it,we will ship new replacement to you.

What you guys think of it???

Have you heard of that kind of things?

Does the blaze vortex? I've been looking at it for over a year but cannot find a function video.

FANTASTIKKK find!!

Hope the slits facing down won't be an issue?

Damn, just read your post @blankrider, never spotted the drips on that piece, I'm really not keen either on that kind of art work on my pieces, sorry @Dangus but I might have to take one of the K's out, in any case two KK's do fit better with that double recycler :p

I was waiting till tomorrow to order it (as I often do as at night I find myself a little too loose with ze cash) But still itching about ordering it though...:evil:

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Yea, I hear ya @oli & @blankrider - the drips aren't preferred...but figured I'm willing to compromise...

Asked Kathy to sub a 14 to 18 adapter instead of the bowls etc...I'd like to pair the lsv with it...

I'd think the angle of the joint makes dabbing a bit of a pain...at least I found the angle of the fab egg had this issue(for me at least)...but my clumsy ass knocked over the fab egg anyways...so not so much of an issue now that is broken... :\

@Dangus Yeah but for the dough, $46 for a double recycler, that's what dreams are made of, anyway time for me to sign off, but for sure that piece will be on my mind as I tried to get off to sleep...good night nice community :wave:

Is that an 18mm joint? I thought they came with 14. This has to be my next order I've been wanting the egg ever since @blankrider got the 1st one.

I ended up scoring two GB-186-1's from luka for $100.58 shipped. Yingmin gave me two 187's for $88 shipped as well. I just messaged him asking to confirm a few things and inquired about a discount for multiple purchases. He said he'd discount 5% and honored it so if any of you guys are ordering multiple pieces it's definitely worth inquiring about.
