@grdwaste most of our communication takes place on Instagram via direct messaging. I will find something that has features I can use as an example. Then I will hold the power button and down volume button on my android phone, this will take a screen shot. I send that photo to him with DM and discuss the aspects I like. Should turn out perfect for me

Edit: and sometimes he will post things for cheap to do a quick sale. If you don't need a custom it is a great opportunity for a good deal

Thanks @blankrider and @Deadshort480 I messages him already and got a very thorough and detailed response. I may just wait for a deal because I really don't NEED custom it's more of a want and he quoted it higher than I expected :( Thanks for the referral though I will probably scoop one of his pieces this month.

@Deadshort480 what piece did you get and how does it function?

I first ordered a few dropdowns from him and then purchased two of his Straight Fab Egg style pieces when he first started making them. I sold the smaller of the two pieces to a young lady who was very interested in one. The function is great and it looks beautiful.

@Deadshort480 glad to hear that you like your cramboro straight fab so much. I had been meaning to ask you about it. How does it compare to some of your other pieces? How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking? I feel as though I got a crazy deal since it was black Friday

It's really hard to compare piece to piece. There's just too many factors that come into play. I paid $200 for one of his earlier ones, but he has since improved and raised prices.

He quoted mine with 6 holes and some work done for $350 which is fair. Can't wait to place the order. He seems really backed up though

You did get a crazy deal lol! Mine is quoted at 350 with no drop down and some color with 6 holes. Still a good deal but hopefully he can get pretty creative with it and works it more than I'm imagining. I'll be placing my order the 1st. Kinda want an opal too :rolleyes:

As I said, it was one of his first attempts at making a Straight Fab. It did not include a dropdown or dome. He was not 100% happy with it due to some imperfections so the price reflected that. Since then, his Straight Fab work has vastly improved which in turn has lead to a higher price. It looks like Blankrider paid for his during the sale that Cramboro had going for Black Friday and that's why he received the price he got. $350 is still an excellent price considering the last Straight Fab style piece I was quoted from another artist was $950 and would incorporate a very scant amount of color.

Thanks for sharing that. Makes me much happier when put in perspective like that. Very excited to see what he comes up with.
 
grdwaste,
I don't know of anyone making Eggs in that price range. You're usually looking at about $600 minimum.
I respect that, and thanks for your reply bro. On another note @Deadshort480, O.M.F.G. I don't do any social media,but someone mentioned you had a pic of your collection and I wanted to see it....... THERE IS NO WAY I COULD SEE THAT ENTIRE VAST OCEAN OF GLASS!!!
Bro you're my newest inspiration!! The sheer diversity of your collection is appalling. I actually saw a freaking Ray Gun. I'd love to see its entirety,You're a Glass God. Can't wait till my kids are grown and all my money is mine. I love your Collection bro, It's beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration. ILL NEVER STOP NOW!!!

Photorider's collection makes mine look like child's play. The Raygun is a Klein Recycler made by Slugworth Glass. Thanks for the kind words, man.

Here's a couple links from my Instagram.

If you have time on your hands you can just peruse Instagram and find new and upcoming artists. You can usually snag newer designs on the less expensive side while helping them up their game. Usually, when an artist starts to really develop their game they don't forget those that helped them along the way. It can be an extremely favorful relationship for both sides.
 
I know photorider has a museum, Lmao! However child's play isnt how I'd describe that collection brother. Very impressive once again i adore the diversity in your brother and its still manageable In my opinion. Photorider just had to use a store to store his collection. My wife would be like :nope::goon::rant:

Ha! My wife is starting to take notice of how much I have and has begun making comments. I love the glass that I own and I usually think pretty hard about what I want to add. There were definitely some impulse buys, but I've even grown to love them as a part of my collection. Out of all the pieces I own, I would really only consider selling maybe two of them because they are kind of duplicates, but even still, I'm not actively looking to sell them.

I can't wait for my next piece though. It's going to be pretty epic and I'm so friggin excited.

grdwaste,
That's what's up! I need a instagram account, lol, just to follow you. I love the Heady Glass but i have NONE. Im a nerd for the function and shapes of pieces so i stick to the Scientific glass. Also with 3 kids a wife and a dog its the only way i can afford to play:rockon::rofl::lmao:Still in the game though. Seriously Deadshort nice collection bro You even got a nice selection of Spirits:cool:

I rarely ever touch the liquor. I try to keep a balance of heady and scientific. I love seeing the waterworks inside a piece. So, even when I'm looking for something heady I like for areas to be clear.

The only reason I can buy all this stuff is no kids, but that might change sooner than later.

@Cannabis Connoisseur some of the cheapest eggs I have seen start at $350. I was given this price 8 weeks ago, hopefully he didn't raise them

This is 400 right now. Dude makes cool eggs but had very phallic mouthpieces until recently
