Recently purchased a banger and the "new and improved" honey bucket from CFAB and thought I'd share my experience here for others.
The banger is quite nice. Feels well made, works great, no complaints. I'm 99% sure it's just a hyman DHGate banger, however it arrived in a few days rather than a few weeks and when you factor in shipping on a single banger the prices are a bit closer. In the future I'd probably either buy a few things from hyman to save on shipping or else save $5 and go with Quartz Cove (assuming they have 18mm males in stock).
The honey bucket however is useless. If this is "new and improved" the old ones must have been some serious turds. The glass on the dome is incredibly thin. I'm honestly afraid that if I'm not careful with the swing I'm going to break the glass. Just imagine having a 700º hunk of quartz and some shattered glass falling from the top of your rig, not a good scene. In addition to the cheap feeling the 18mm joint does not fit tight enough in my rig. It slides around a bit and as the seal is not air tight there are issues with air coming in through the joint.
I emailed CFAB about the problems with the honey bucket. I'll post an update if I hear back from him.
[EDIT] His response:
If you have an un used item I will accept return . Sorry for your inconvenience.
I have filed a complaint with PayPal as this qualifies as "internally damaged" and incorrect size. Would recommend avoiding CFAB.

I got a few of Hyman's swings along with a couple of his honey buckets a few weeks ago and have no complaints but don't know if they'd fit your hb.

Also, Oregon Glass Blower makes different size/shaped ones for the mothership honey buckets and Quartz Cove has them pretty cheap.

My order from the quartz cove that I placed on Thursday will be here today! I got a couple atomic bangers and a quartz enail with hook for a great price and free shipping ! I will be sure to post up reviews after some use.

Just got in my domeless ceramic nail from domeless.com and I really like it. Had to mess with my coil a little bit to get it to fit over the threading on the nail but now it fits perfectly. None of my carb caps even come close to fitting over it so I've been using my LSV WPA as a carb and it works pretty good.

I got some questions about nail maintenance.
I primarily use quartz (domeless castles) and with age, they do not torch clean like they used to. Instead of becoming fully clean with the torch, my nails have developed a whitish/grey fog and crust on the bowl.
They still glow red and get hot as fuck, and I don't think it has affected performance, but even after a torch one can see the crusty... I have tried everything to clean this nail, do any of you all have advice for cleaning? I have done ISO and salt baths and have tried chipping it off with a small metal pick, but am having zero success in bringing back clear quartz.
Is it possible to restore a nail to "like new" condition, or will it be forever crusted?

Why are you reposting the same exact post in so many threads?
We get it, you have a code... great.
Stop all the repudiative posting and just put it in the correct place ONCE.
Try Retailer Discussions and Announcements- Everyone will see it and you don't have to post up the same announcement in every single thread you follow.

holly crap, it's really gone. Maybe they just forgot to pay for the domain or something, but that would suck if they're out of business.

Hi, I'm in the market for a good quality nail for e-nail (16mm coil), I got a cheap titanium one from china and another glass from china too.
The ti works nice with the little cup but I don't like the taste, so I switched for a boro nail which taste better but the provided carbcap is a shit...in place I use my ti carbcap, the seal is not perfect and it sit on the coil itself...although it provides me very nice and fat low temp dabs (520)...that's why I hesitate...I'm afraid to throw 100$ for something better quality but not a game changer..!
And my issue is I live in Europe...do you know a good nails european retailer (for e-nail)?
I prefer a quartz nail but the nail I saw at d-nail website are really, really expensive....is it possible to find something similar but cheaper (and in EU as well!)?
Thanks

@Nugg Hey guys not sure how active this thread is but what's the best quartz banger I can get for cheap? I don't want no Chinese crap, I saw on dhgate that they have quave club bangers for really cheap... are they fake?
Also I live in Canada is dhgate the best place to order from? I'm also getting a D020 bubbler as dh seems to have both.

I'm getting some serious mixed signals from this message. What's wrong with China quartz? You will accept China boro but not China quartz? Yeah the qcb are fake but why get a China piece in the first place if you're going to be rocking a qcb? Just curious.

Yeah man sorry dude I can see how you would see that. The D020 is for my extreme q vape only.
I have other very nice concentrate rigs and iv bought cheap Chinese bangers and I don't like them. Too thin and they oxidize very fast. So I was looking for a good American thick banger but for cheap? Hope that clears things up

I bought a 4mm honey bucket quartz nail a while back from china on dh. It eventually broke when my cousin dropped my rig by accident and everything shattered. The quartz bucket broke off the stem but stayed intact. lol.
Which was surprising because when I'd seen it happen as if in slow mo I coulda sworn it was what hit the floor first.
It served me well and what I'm trying to say is if you're looking for a thick quartz nail search for 4mm thick at least and you'll find some.

Mine came from this dude and it worked well.

Alternatively there are sets with a carb cap. I think this dude sells one too.
Here is his combo listing: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/nectar-collector-kit-with-quartz-tip-14mm/233158094.html
I thought 4mm was just enough. Quartz heats up fast enough so I figured it'd be good to have a thick one for when I wanted those big dabs. More mass = more heat retention, I think. Since I am an e-nail-less peasant.

Apparently the Hyman quartz from dhgate is the best for cheap

Yeah I guess I should explain my thinking. I'd gotten burnt on the first cheapo supposedly quartz nail I got from china, so I made sure to get one that said it was quartz guaranteed for the next one. This one just happened to be the one that said that at the time.
They even have/had? a return policy which said that if the nail broke through regular use (impurity) they would replace for free. I remember reading that.
