DHgate Glass Review thread (You must post a review, see first post)

Frederick McGuire

Aggressively Loungey
Fuck that.

The discount they applied to my 3rd order didn't even make up for the cost I paid for the 2nd order, and they're trying to shaft me on it...

Frederick McGuire said:
What?

No.

I thought I made my position very clear over the many messages I have sent regarding this matter.


You sent me 2 pieces in a row that were not functional.


I told you I was unhappy with your service at that time, and I informed you of the 3 ways the situation could be resolved.

1 - you refund me for the 2nd defective item, and I am left unhappy and likely to leave negative feedback.

2 - you replace the defective item, and I leave positive feedback but no longer continue shopping at your store

3 - you replace the defective item, AND allow me a discount on another order an I will leave positive feedback and continue shopping at your store.


Multiple times while we were finalizing the discounted order I mentioned to include the replacement for the defective recycler. [*** as per my above emphasis ***]


The discount on my latest order was less than I paid for the defective recycler to begin with, without even accounting for the original item that was not functional.


At this point I have paid approximately $140 for 4 items, 2 of which are not functional.


I am still unsatisfied with my overall experience with your store.

If you are willing to ship me the replacement for my defective recycler, then I will be happy as you will have met your side of our agreement.

If you insist that the transaction is now complete, I feel my only option will be to file a dispute with dhgate, inform them of what has happened and allow them to determine if I am eleigible for some kind of partial refund.


I understand that opening a dispute is bad for your store, and I do not wish to do so, but I am afraid I feel like I am being left with no other option.


No response from CCG

So today I went on to the DHgate customer support live chat, and was basically advised to request a refund from CCG, then they could follow it up, so I sent this final message to CCG:
2014-10-13 07:21

Frederick McGuire said:
I have just spoken with [Name-J] through the dhgate customer service live chat feature.

I was advised to request a refund from you for the orders I am unsatisfied with.


Order 1XXXXXXX40 - $42.23

Order 1XXXXXXX85 - $27.27

Total $69.50


Both of these items arrived in a state where they were unusable.


It is my opinion that a full refund for these 2 items is the most fair outcome.


So I still need to process the dispute, but I feel the matter has progressed far enough that I can report on it now.

First off, thank you very much Frederick for taking the time to post your experience. I'm very sorry you have had to deal with such bullshit over the last ~3 months but myself and I'm sure many other users here greatly appreciate your detailed feedback. I have wanted to order from CCG multiple times, but your lingering posts in the thread always pushed me away. This is the final icing on the cake, no matter how bad I want one of their pieces I will never, ever do business with them.

I think we should try to get as many members as possible to pretty much copy/paste some of Fred's most relevant points and put something along the lines of this at the end of the message "You just lost all my business along with my friend's and family that I order for, congratulations."

Sunshine Store is the best hands down IMO. I've ordered from Kathy as well, just took almost a week longer than SS to get here.

And to keep this post relevant, I will be dropping my review of my latest piece from DH. I believe I am the first to not only review but the first to receive and actually use it.

_____________________________________________________________________

Piece: JX-017
Vendor: Sunshine Store
Shipping: 8 days (China to Colorado)
Price: $25.77 (as of 10/14/14)

This "little guy" will hit you like a truck. The honeycomb has lots of diffusion however the way the honeycomb works you pretty much take it all in at once. This piece is not as smooth as the D020 with the slitted perc. It's very functional though, no noticeable splashback and very well built. Has a nice sturdy base and the class is pretty thick. The "can" is a good size, however I wish the mouth piece was longer. It's a little awkward to hit unless you pick it up with your hand. Not like the D020 where you could leave it on a desk/table and hit it without having to hold it.

It's a good piece for $25 however you can spend $5-10 more and get something better IMO. This one just caught my eye and being that nobody else ordered it yet, I decided to be the guinea pig on this one. I might keep it as a portable or something but I've got the feeling I'll end up flipping it on craigslist because I prefer the D020 over it still. All in all I'd recommend if you're just looking for an extra fun piece, I wouldn't want to use it as a daily driver personally.

I recently bought this piece and I love it. It does recycle very well it also vortex! I like mine filled a little higher to keep everything flowing easy. The mouthpiece I wish was a little more upwards but it still works great. As some people have said about CCG lots wrong. On this order not so much. There is a small scratch on the bottom but nothing I cant live with its like 1 inch long. overall for less than 50 bucks this recycler is banging, all the percs fire, it has a vortex, and it came pretty fast in bomb proof packing.

I got a new recycler from yingmin yesterday (GB-242) and it is the shit. It is so good that I think it actually cured the GAS I've been having lately. I know that a lot of people have gotten barrel to funnel lately and I did too, well this shits all over it.
http://m.dhgate.com/product/glass-bong-glass-oil-rig-bong-smoking-pipe/211852248.html#pd-019

I love this thing and have been using it for dabbing but feel that it would also make a great vape piece. Might be better if accompanied by a drop down for either purpose.

It has really great air flow, very low resistance. The perc is very clean straight and centered. It is ten slit single grid, so 20 holes total. It has a nice vortex and little chance of splash. In the video I used a lot of water to show this.
The only thing that I would mention is that the glass is not super thick. Perhaps 3mm to be honest but it does not seem fragile. With normal usage it should be able to last a lifetime. Just don't bang it against the inside of your sink or something.

OK so this is like a review/instructional post.

I recently purchased a off brand oil pen on eBay with cool worked glass globe. I don't really like the standard glass globe ones due to their drug pipe appearance.
I believe the worked ones are sold out so here is a link for a standard one. http://m.ebay.com/itm/191262769706?nav=SEARCH this is a honest seller with good quality products and great customer service. My atomizer is dual ceramic rod which I find much better than the silica wick
PoaxnFm.jpg


After enjoying my pen for a while I decided it needed a water path and noticed that if I stuck it in a 14mm joint it almost made a seal. I then purchased a PNWT from sunshine store http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/pinnacle-pro-glass-smoking-water-pipe-vaporblunt/184494946.html and a #7 O-ring at my local menards.

I put the O-ring between the 2 that are built into the atomizer base.
lIateQ5.jpg


Now the pen actually fits up under the hydrotube and the result is fat ass nicely cooled pen hits at a reasonable price.

Here is a video of it in action. I didn't realize my pen was clogged so it takes a second to get going but then it produces smooth massive clouds

GB-187 Nöbius Matrix from @yingmin5 on Dhgate
http://www.dhgate.com/product/hot-s...g/188885599.html#myaccount_orderdetail-1-null

Ordered 10/22/14
Received 11/1/14


Condition: The box was covered with bubble wrap and the piece was lovingly cradled in bubble wrap and Chinese newspaper. The piece was Clean and shiny with no logos. The mouthpiece and perc are both straight. The slits are fire-polished. The base is huge: 4 3/8". The only flaw I can find is that the 18mm female joint seems a bit big. My adaptor bottoms out. My Banger fits nice but as you can see in the pic, it is close for torching. But it works great. I love the purr. Lamin is a Class Act. @yingmin5 is a recommended seller.:tup:

Recieved my first gb-187 also from @yingmin5. Mine was packaged exactly the same as @DieHard so he's pretty consistent with packaging. I also had no logo but my joint seems to be on point.
NALisMk.jpg

I ordered mine oct 24tg. I missed the oct 22nd sale:zzz:. So I contacted him and he put up 5 more single lot pieces... I grabbed 2:brow:. Very good CS also! (I think he only did that because he told me he'd let me know when they go up for sale and forgot to message me) either way @yingmin5 is the way to go!

So thanks to @blankrider I have finally press the buy button on the shower head to HC to egg, can't wait for it to arrive in some 45 days ich :rockon:

RRnQQwD.jpg

Just in case you weren't sure, its Kathy who sells it :p

http://www.dhgate.com/product/2014-...b-perk-9-quot/210383089.html#cart_view-1-null

I also did spot this one, too much diffusion perhaps but for the buck $32.45 (shipped to Europe, for us Europeans and perhaps Australians too? its worth mentioning as we do not have the Epacket over here, damn Europe, I guess its a good thing otherwise I'd have even more glass at home, just to give you guys an idea of the misery we live with, items on the Alina store are almost double the price when shipping is add on :cry::cry::cry::cry::cry: anyway enough sobbing)

Going back to the glass I've always wanted to try the diamond perc as they seem to call it and was so desperate to get a new female piece (these days you see so much oil rigs around), so with its 30 cm + in size, how could I refuse...

This seller, waterbongsman only has 11 transactions so its more of a gamble but hey someone has to start somewhere...

As soon as it arrives I'll add it to the DHgate thread

anyway enough chatting,

So I’ve finally received my Diamond perc bubbler.

This was the first time I bought something from this buyer (Waterbongsman), He does not have much stuff unfortunately. Everything went as it should, and was dispatch the next day, it took the usual month or so to arrive. The box and wrapping was really on the THIN side so I would really insist on more bubble wrap if possible! They were no breakages which I’m very surprised!

The bubbler has no defects what so ever which I’m really happy with and everything is level and straight in all departments, so again very happy, clean welds, the only thing I could perhaps find as a fault is that the slide is at a slight angle, towards the outside but its nice and far enough from the body, ready for when ONE day I’ll get the EVO :brow: The diamond Perc is really beautiful in or out of water. The glass is nice and solid but the slide is on the thin side.

The functionability is GREAT I’m really loving it! I mainly vape through water in front of a mirror, as I love to to see the action it produces, and it does not disappoint. It has a funny SLURPY noise when pulling hard, you can actually hit it as hard as you want and won’t get no splash back or only few specks. The diffusion is superb but it takes its toll on the flavor that’s for sure.

After all those many smallish rigs its nice have a 30 + cm bubbler with a female joint but with the volume of a small rig.

So all in all, I’m really glad I got this new bubbler, so worth it!

Here’s a couple of photos and vids

Enjoy :)

All are very good quality (a few small bubbles here and there but thats it). I am very happy with all 3 pieces. These will definitely be staying in the collection.

Kathy and Yingmin5 had their normal delivery times for the barrel to funnel and the ratchet recycler. The dabuccino cup from CCG took about a month to get delivered.

I do not support CCG and I do not recommend them. I ordered a quad showerhead from them a couple months ago, and after being told by 2 different CCG employees that I would receive my item in clear, I was sent pink. And one of the 4 shower heads was bent pretty bad. The mouthpiece tube was welded a little low too, so water traveled up it easily. Buy from CCG at your own risk. However, I can confirm that the dabuccino rig from them is the best knock off I have seen so far for the price. I just wish a different seller offered the same one (Kathy's is nice, but I like the frosted top compared to her white top. And the other ones on DHgate with the actual logo on it have a very short mouthpiece so they aren't even usable).

Piece: SD589
Vendor: Btoc-jewelry (not in store anymore, you can find it here or here)
Shipping: ~ 3 weeks (China to Germany)
Price: ~ $70 incl. shipping (07/09/14)

My first piece of glass, so I can't compare it to anything. Packaging was bombproof. Joint is male 18.8, I use it with 18.8 to 14.5 female to female adapter + Pinnacle Pro. Much more enjoyable than with WT. Came with glass nail and dome but the nail is too slim for the joint. I don't do dabbing anyway, but the nail is not appropriate for that joint. Coloring does not cover the whole perc cap as it did on the original pics. I love the fact that both chambers have the same diameter which gives it a nice look and touch. Gives great diffusion (see Video). No chance of getting any water in your mouth. Mouthpiece feels nice and is fun to use. Imho not much drag. The stem has no extra support, that's probably the weak spot. The Pinnacle Pro is light weight but I use it with a lot of care. The rest is made of thick glass and seems very solid. No general flaws. Solid stand. Colored ring on the bottom could be a bit more even. I highly recommend it!

Really enjoying this new not sure what to call it glass bong. I love the smaller size. It's about 6.5" tall - to the tip of the mouthpiece. It is thick quality glass all around. Very well made and I am very happy with the construction/fit and finish.

Has a nice solid feel to the base. Stable. Thick glass it is well made and was only $31 shipped! Amazing price and the performance is incredible. It took 12 days to arrive to southern California. I am very pleased with the transaction. Seller packed well. Shipped fast. Exactly as described. Totally met and exceeded my expectations. No issues with the seller "Alina0086". Would do business with again in a new york minute.

I'm using a Quartz Banger and this little rig hits so smooth. Nice thick milky hits that HIT HARD!

I was using a larger glass bong and notice I'm getting much higher off this smaller rig.

Ok, reviving this thread because It's a worthy thread for those who are overloaded by the choices on the Cheap bubblers thread....

(Apologies in advance, you're not going to get any personal pictures from me, too lazy tonight!)

Hot%20sale%20new%20design%20two%20function%20CONCENTRATE%20WATER%20PIPE%20glass%20bong%20mini%20bubbler%20oil%20rig%20with%20glass%20nail%20free%20shipping.jpg


Purchased this piece several weeks ago. It is very small! Less than 4 inches tall. Build quality was decent, the thickness was adequate for the size. Though in typical mass-produced china fashion, the base isn't 100% flat, and there's one weld on the mouthpiece which looks questionable. Overall for the price, I was happy with it. The perc is not fire-polished, but it's so smooth I could barely feel it 'purr' while hitting it (It was so smooth, it was almost unsettling)

After cleaning, my first session tasted more flavorful than my other piece at the time (D020-W I believe). It was quite a noticeable and pleasant change. Unfortunately, my Nano + Female GonG stem is a bit too heavy for the male mount to be off center like this. It's way too unstable for practical use if you prefer heatsoaking (which I do!). Still a fun piece for the price, and I definitely plan to keep it for the time being. Hopefully it might work better with my Lotus vape!

Too lazy to repeat everything but this is actually one of my REALLY favorite pieces currently (using it right now!). It's very very tiny, and true the glass is on the thin side. But since the male joint is centered over the water, it's actually quite stable with my nano perched on top!

The water action is fun, the perc is smooth, and it hits like a champ!

I had doubts about buying this piece (and it was sold out the first time I tried to buy it, only to come BACK in stock a few days later). But I'm really glad I did, well worth the price

Guess what I got today!! :D :D http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-come-nov-2014-two-function-black-water/213566402.html

ordered from Kathy on 12/5 shipped out on 12/10, recieved on 12/29

Double vortex showed up (with updated tracking) in good condition, well packaged in box/bubble wrap. First impressions, it's fairly well made, welds feel stronger/smoother than previous kathy pieces I have, glass feels to be at least 3-4mm thick with a guess, it's fairly small 9" tall, fits in the palm nicely, It recycles and vortexes pretty well with high water level, 3 slit perc. As expected there is some unevenness to the various parts, and a slight lean, but over all it sits well on the desk, feels sturdy enough, stands even and seems balanced with the weight of the heavy glass adapter I put on it. *also came with a 14mm combustion bowl and a 14mm dome and 3 glass nails.

My main complaint would be the short male joint, it's a bit too low or short. The water level has to be pretty high to create a full recycle/vortex and if you have this piece sitting flat on a desk/table surface, the water does bounce up pretty close to the top of the joint. It seems to be meant to be more of a palm piece, when held at a tilt towards you, the water line drops to a safer bounce back level. I can see using a Ti domelss nail that slides over the outside of the joint, or possibly just using adapters to extend it as shown in this water test and Lotus video below. Pardon my crappy lighter, it's well used. :p

I give this piece a slightly mixed review because it looks nice and works pretty good over all, but you have to really watch that water line at the male joint. Just the slightest tip too far forward spills it out. If you plan to get this one, you might want to figure out an adapter that fits 14mm to extend it enough to keep a hot nail out of the water, or use a domeless. I'm still very pleased over all, got what was shown and expected (with blue mouthpiece accent and blue drips over the can which don't bother me)

Piece: D020
Vendor: Radiant Glass http://www.dhgate.com/store/19802725#st-navigation-storehome
Shipping: 11 days (China to California)
Price: $26.73

I received my first piece of Chinese glass today a D020 from Radiant Glass. While it arrived quickly and functions properly, that's about all I can say in favor of it. Most of the issues I have with it are with the sloppiness of it's construction. Below I've posted some pictures.

The mouth piece waivers off to the left and the brace is off center.

P1010826_zpse796acd0.jpg

P1010827_zpsf0494731.jpg


The perc is roughly cut with cracks and chips visible. I know I shouldn't expect flame polishing at this price point, but they are all at different depths as well.

P1010829_zps7daa3a18.jpg


The top is kind of oddly shaped neither side matching the other.
The base is nice an wide. (Ok so another point in it's favor)

P1010825_zps79d24a6f.jpg


The shipping was bomb proof in a manner of speaking. There was no box involved, just 2 big pieces of Styrofoam with a cut out of the bubbler and a bunch of tape. What the heck it worked.

P1010811_zps3dd97a51.jpg


Here is a perfect example of you get what you pay for. As my wife said "So it'll become a garage bubbler and if you break it you won't care". And it promptly took its place out in the garage or maybe on to a friend. All in all my advice is to skip this vendor. It may cost a couple of bucks more to get a D020 from another better known vendor, but from what I've seem their stuff looks a lot nicer.

What a guy!
I received 2 pieces from Kathy this week. http://www.dhgate.com/store/18490454#st-navigation-storehome

First up is this little pendent bubbler.
http://www.dhgate.com/product/chris...g/212374254.html#myaccount_orderdetail-1-null

P1010821_zpsc7d7092c.jpg


This thing is tiny but cute. The colors are bright and the striping is even and well done.
P1010823_zpsb5111cac.jpg


There's not a lot more to say about it, there is a little inline perc inside and it comes with the most ridiculously small nail. I went out and picked up a dome less quartz nail because there was no way that this nail would hold the heat for a dab.
P1010824_zpsa2c78fed.jpg


The second piece I got from Kathy was this one.
http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-c...e/214729544.html#myaccount_orderdetail-1-null

I was really liking the look of this piece but I knew I was taking a chance with the perc. It's a really good looking piece in person and the colors are really bright. Everything is straight and has nice welds. If you handed it to me I'd not think it was Chinese glass.
P1010820_zps42bf6de6.jpg


The color work is very well done and all the welds are nice and clean.
P1010815_zpsccc1b2a7.jpg

P1010816_zps9211c6b2.jpg


As far as the recycling goes, it does recycle, but could do a better job. I think that if the down stem were either shorter so it ended in the middle of the can, or was close ended it would create a better recycle. As it is now every once in a while a bubble sneaks up the outlet tube.

As usual Kathy's packaging was well done and it took less then 2 weeks to get from china to the west coast of California. Both were wrapped in a number of layers of heavy bubble wrap, and although it looked like one of the packages was sat upon everything came through shipping fine.

My review on the 4 hole starbuck cup bubbler & the double barrel recycler from Btoc
Starbud cup: honestly me and my friends all love this bubbler, got it for 40$ from my LHS after taxes (lemme repeat that, my LHS!) and my friend instantly grabbed the other one they had on hand. For the price- amazing. Has a 4 hole closed end downstem with a pretty nice amount of variety on how much water you can put in it. As you can see, I prefer little water, although you can put much more without splashback. This piece is hard to clear. That is due to the very small mouthpiece diameter. This lends itself to the strategy I have been using lately, which is filling the cup up with milk from the vape slowly/slightly slowing, then clearing it hard as you won't get splashback. For the money I'd give this piece a 4.5/5. All that could be better is a wider diameter mouthpiece and a larger base, as this thing is too tippy for my enail to be used safely.
The double barrel knockoff by Btoc- This one I grabbed early and for nearly I believe 60$ canadian right when the initial batch went out by him. Came very quick (within 2 weeks), discreet, tons of packaging/newspaper + bubble wrap so no chance of breakage. Would definitely do business with this vendor again (Btoc Jewelry). The pull is unique due to the nature of the second recycling tube specifically. Bubbles will bounce off that barrel and give it a significantly different pull than most other cyclers. I would not however classify this as better than the normal recycler, it is just different (I own a OGC recycler ie. classic vortex recycler with 3 closed hole downstem facing away from uptake tube) and you may or may not like that factor. The joint is slightly angled forward which bothers me quite much as I need to contact a local blower for a weirdly angled dropdown with the piece in hand for a dd that probably costs nearly half the piece itself for enail use. If that doesn't concern you then ignore what I said, it is not that far angled forward, maybe 10 degrees. The pull I would describe as initially a bit of a startup fizz (because it's a double barrel with slits) then more chuggy as it begins recycling (and it does this quite well). I'd say this piece was probably a 6/10 for 60$ but I know it is less $$ now. For $40 like the other I'd only put it up to a 7/10, as I honestly think a lot of other models coming out (as in the recent kleins and eggs) do a similar job in a classier fashion. That aside this piece does see some use, but quite limited to be honest as it's really a dabbing rig that you receive the hit very quickly from. This does not lend itself towards stacking a larger tube for a big vapor hit, although if you have a need for a female jointed piece on your vape that has little airflow (restriced airflow kind of ruins the recycling) this is actually a very solid choice. The base which I haven't mentioned is easily 5mm on the bottom and is a solid cup (or whatever the name is) style base. This rig is the one I choose if friends want to dab on the go or somewhere outside as it lends itself so well to domeless heating on a surface and passing around, and I don't worry about it tipping over like I would with the cup rig due to it's hefty base.

Review on my watertest of the exact pendy model posted above, same color pull and all (albeit labeled by a company and marked up, I just wanted to try it): personally I didn't care for it too much as a pendant, it seemed quite easy to get splashback and didn't get a nice chug or even fizz that I hoped for. I'd probably look elsewhere for a 10mm rig unless you absolutely need it to be a pendant.

I could not resist ordering this oil pen bubbler for $12.50 and I am very pleased with it. I took a small risk on the untested seller "atinating" and was happy to receive my order in a timely manner and it was very well wrapped. I would not hesitate to compare it to ordering from sunshine store.

The bubbler is nicely shaped and cleanly made. The downstem is centered with the best flame polished slits I have ever seen from China. I own 2 Alex K downstem and this is very close. I am amazed.

The only imperfection is a minor crack where the pen tube is bridged to the can. It does not leak water or air and really insignificant at this price.

It even comes with the atomizer and rubber o-ring adapter in the picture. All you need is a 510 thread battery, errl, and water to get this bad boy up and running

OK so this is like a review/instructional post.
I then purchased a PNWT from sunshine store http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/pinnacle-pro-glass-smoking-water-pipe-vaporblunt/184494946.html and a #7 O-ring at my local menards.

I put the O-ring between the 2 that are built into the atomizer base.

Wow.
So I saw this post of yours @blankrider , and went ahead and got the PNWT.
OMG.
Such wonderful hits, cool and large !! Some of the best concentrate experiences ever. Truly a great idea.
Works perfect with a 3rd o-ring of the same size, airtight, perfect fit.
I've got mine on my sub-ohm E-LVT mod with a dual ceramic rod coil from ineedhemp.com, which I HIGHLY recommend as a great business with quality coils that will last and give you the best flavor and longevity (from person experience only).
Here's two pics of my setup:

That's the Pinnacle on my E-LVT sub-ohm 7-30 watt mod
Here's a pic of the extra washer, and, shows you how messy I am with my concentrates. Also shows dual ceramic rod coil.
pinnacle2.jpg

that ring there makes it seal perfectly, same size as the main two, slipped in-between.
So, what else can I say except I also recommend this setup, and the seller who shipped it to me in bomb-proof packaging (lol).
Thanks again for a wonderful idea, @blankrider , and to all you concentrate vapers out there, GET THIS he he.
Happy vaping.

Hi Vapers !
Really sorry for the back-2-back post, I don't think it should be merged into one as it's two different subjects but it is of course up to the discretion of the admins.
Just thought I'd post this neat little shisha waterpipe for 510 concentrate devices from DHgate.
It's part #187598808 , click here for the link.
Neat little item that works great. Nice thick rich vapor. Cheap. Fun.
Only downside ? Can't be set down while connected. No biggie, depending on your mod you can either hang it off the edge of table or simply pull apart and set down.
Here's the pic:

My new shisha waterpipe connected to my sub-ohm E-LVT mod. (Using dual ceramic rod coil)
So, yes, ,I recommend this cool lil thing. Good seller seems like.
Got it in USA in 13 days with the usual bomb-proof packaging we know from DHGate.

All he best !:rockon:

Hi again vapers, it's me again....
Sorry to see no posts here since my last one.
I found out my Pinnacle water filtration piece, otherwise known as a PNWT, also works great on my Solo vaporizer (by Arizer) !
Using the #7 O-ring from a generic coil on the glass stem works wonders.
So here's a pic of what it looks like:

Pinnacle PNWT on an Arizer Solo​

This works SO well, it really aids in the whole action of the device.
For me, it changes the Solo from a milk shake sucking to a mouth-to-lung'er. Excellent.
Might as well show you where I put the O-ring, seems obvious, but, here:

So........
Again sorry for multiple posts, but still don't think they should be merged.
Discretion on that matter is left to the admins....
HAPPY VAPING EVERYONE !!!!! :leaf::luv::peace::leaf:
Oh and P.S. you can get your Pinnacle PNWT here ! (<- click there)

Piece: FC-187 (v.1)
Vendor: stevenlmz79
Shipping: 23 days (to Germany)
Price: $39,78 + $11,15 shipping (08.12.2014)

The FC-187 came in in one piece. Double box but not much bubblewrap. It's mostly what you would expect. Steven has a lot good photos on DHgate already. I few minor flaws: Inclusion of a tiny white particle on the top edge (barely noticable) and a small scratch. I'm new to glass and fully satisfied with the piece. The matrix-perc is not flawless but mounted straight. The slits could be more uniform. The sidecar mouthpiece gives a good view of what's going on, very helpful but you don't see that much of the inside really. The bowl is pretty sturdy and perfect to put on the Pnp. Even with a lot of water it's almost impossible to get water in your mouth. I love the easy pull on the FC-187. Much easier to pull through than the first piece I bought from Btoc (SD589). I would recommend it, especially at this price. IIRC Steven is already working on an improved Version 2 with a better matrix perc and some lefties.

The vertical cuts leave horizontal bars behind which vary in size a bit. One is cut out completely.

Funnily enough, I went to DHGate out of curiosity and ended up picking up this- http://www.dhgate.com/product/2014-new-design-glass-smoking-water-pipe/212749523.html
I have the PV F-bomb and I wanted a piece I could travel with and not worry as much about. This suits nicely. I ordered two, because why not at the price? I'm glad I did- one of my tubes has shallow-cut holes in the splash guard up top, and water just doesn't want to drain once it's there. But this thing hits almost silently. I love my F-Bomb, but quiet it ain't and I don't always want to announce that I'm taking a hit. The second drains better, and is still quiet. Plus, the tubes are shorter and squatter than the F-Bomb and feel sturdier, and I can take a hit almost vertically without drinking. I'd say I'm a happy customer!
I did have to wait a while, though. I ordered on Christmas day and they arrived yesterday, after an estimated 7-12 days. I figured that I picked a particularly bad time to have something shipped, and maaaaaaaaaaybe I kept forgetting how long ago I ordered. :) They were super securely wrapped, in styrofoam cut out for them. I'd definitely order again- my Solo is just so lovely when paired with water!

Have you ever tried to find a particular post here ?
Maddening.
I wanted to thank whoever posted this piece, gettin me to try it out.
So here it is, a neat lil bubbler for a 510 piece :

Does anyone know the original poster of this tool ? I'd appreciate knowing.
Click here to get yours. Nice little unit which cools the vapor and provides thick clouds.
Fully empty of vapor before u remove it.
Here's a stock photo:

Another great find on DHgate !

Oh ! Sorry @vjt324 , and everyone else ! Forgot to list the link on that lil bubbler!
I HAVE 2 admit though, 1/3 of the time, it empties when removed from the 510 device.
I'm looking at a new one, I'll show you the link for that as well.
The one I got is available by clicking here, and, the one I'm going to get which hopefully won't leak out the water when it is removed, that listing can be seen by clicking here, but I have NOT yet received it, so I can NOT give any honest review. I DO like the title saying 'spill proof'.... your call.
Water and cannabis concentrate don't mix well. I love using it, but don't much anymore due to the random emptying of water.
On a related note, this is how I'm gettin' by for the moment:

e-lvt_510.png

My ELV-T 2.0 attached with Canadian medical-grade tubing to my DHGate bubbler.
...actually works fairly well, but I'm looking forward to my new shisha.
The bubbler in this pic is availble on DHGate by clicking here ! Truly a great little bubbler for an awesome price ! See my review of it by clicking here.
The E-LVT 2.0 is intended as an ecig mod, so no description or review truly exists of it here on FC Forum. I use it to vaporize cannabis concentrates, as well as using it for e-juice.

Vape on, happy vapers ! :leaf::peace::luv::leaf:
