I got this yesterday for $90. It's thick as hell, it packs a fat bowl and it just looks awesome. I really love it.
i really dig that peice man, nice choice although 90 bucks seems kinda steep. still its fucking cool as hell
at first, I agreed, but if you look closely, you can see its inside out glass. Which is usualy pretty expensive. You could get a similer piece for about $20 usualy, but it probably isnt as thick or as nicely colorful as that one. Look at thouse big bubbles of glass next to the bowl. you can see how friggen thick the glass is just by thouse bubbles. Honestly, I wouldnt pay $90 for that piece, but thats just me, since im more of a bong guy than a pipe guy. but still, the pictures dont do it justice.
I got it at a head shop where they blow glass in the front window. So I know that this is a unique piece. None of you have actually seen it or held it in your hand. Like I said, the pictures don't show how thick and detailed it is. If you actually saw it, you would know that it's worth more than $20. I do think that $90 is too much, but it's the one I wanted. It put all the other pipes I looked at to shame.
Edit:this is a close up of my sherlock. I know retail can be expensive. I got a nice inside out spoon for $35 online. And that inside out sherlock which is 7.5" tall was only $85 and I can guarantee it is awesome quality no bubbles. Check your piece out close does it have tiny air bubbles in the glass they would look like very tiny particles inside the glass. I guarentee if you buy retail they will rip you off unless you live sum place were there is good competition plus the fact that there product suck that was probably there best spoon.
Man, I said it's not retail. It was blown at the shop. There was a guy in the window where we walked up blowing this huge bubbler. It was awesome.
retail=The sale of goods or commodities in small quantities directly to consumers. Sounds like a cool place they blow the stuff in front of you if I had money to blow I would go there and have a custom piece made or maybe get a carb made bigger you are lucky to have such a store.
Ok, I didn't see any air bubbles. I got it down in baltimore and there are headshops everywhere down there. So there's competition. On Eastern avenue alone there's four shops. If I can get better pictures I'll put them up. It seems to get alot of glare which takes away from the colors and designs.
Try without flash if your camera has the option. I am a little obsessed with my glass by hanging around og before it got shut down gave me a chance to see some of the best glass in the world. Like the quad perc usa roor which could probably send you to the moon. If you buy glass there is no place like online stores they have so much competition they have to pump out awesome glass plus the fact there glass comes from all around the world. Only my spoon came from the US and its the lowest quality.
