The King Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Nice sweet, kind of flew through it.... good stuff, fair pricesOne random ? though... In the hookah recommendations section why did you put 1/4 alcohol 3/4water?Like what benefits does that have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgcsinc Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I often do 1/4 alcohol (cheap vodka or something similar) - it makes it smoother and gives it some extra buzz, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookahhippo Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 The extra alcohol gives it an extra kick. Any thoughts and recommendations on the website would be awesome. Give us a try, you won't regret it!Ben K.HookahHippo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I don't know about that extra kick....we actually had a descussion on it before and no one said it did an sort of extra buzz. It certainly didnt do it for me when I tried 100% liquor in the base Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosepotatoes Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Excellent prices. I'm really digging the tripe hose rotator. That's the price I've been looking for, only problem is.....what colors do u have? Only the ones displayed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabsz Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 (edited) Is there more or SPECIFIC Product Details? anywhere not just the General Category?. sorry for picking on you I know the site is new, but that is just something i think that you should improve Edited April 24, 2007 by sabsz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kornkitten42 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 (edited) i actually think his prices are rather high. his least expensive hookah is 65.00.............. and there isn't any product detail just generic pictures.i like the hippo though it's cute.Nazarhookahs, MNhookah, social smoke, and HC have better prices on actual hookahs though.he does have great prices on 40mm goldens though 15.00 isn't too shabby!

By extra kick i meant buzz. But I would definitely not recommend any more than 1/4 alcohol 3/4 water. Ben HookahHippo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are currently working on adding the color option to the product pages. To answer your question, we carry blue, red, and green in the rotator hookahs. We carry multiple colors in all of our hookahs that come in multiple colors (the abyss, ivory tower, and stratus do not come in multiple colors). Feel free to email or call me and we can discuss your purchase. We are here to serve you the best we can.

Although I would have to disagree with some of your points. Our least expensive hookah is $65 not because our prices are high but because we only carry quality products that we know work and are of great quality. If you compare like products on our site to others, I think you will see that our prices are very good. I would also like to assure you that all of our hookahs are in fact real. And we are quickly gaining a customer base that will attest to it. Thanks again for your feedback. We really appreciate all feedback, good or bad. Hopefully we can serve your hookah needs in the future.Ben HookahHippo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazria Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Nice site, ok-ish prices but I highly suggest more accessories. That's the bigeest thing that drives me online to Hookah retailers - I've piecemealed my hookah's together (a stem here, base here, bowl from them, shisha over there, opps need a new hose again).And more shisha options, although you do carry two brands i like myself.

It certainly didnt do it for me when I tried 100% liquor in the baseYou will ingest liquor to some degree with it in the base.-With a 10% concentration of jack daniels in my base, using my stargate hookah.-Over the course of 30 minutes smoking, my BAC went from .00 to .03. This is because any ethanol particles would go straight to the lungs anyways, where the measurement is taken from.Smoking through even a mildly alcoholic solution will get alcohol directly to your lungs, how much? It may be possible to reverse calculate that, alas my breathalyzer has been destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I think if you would just add Smiley's Sexy Shisha, you'd be a perfect online store for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnzy02 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 although you might feel romman and al waha are the only brands you need to carry. I think you should be supplying the customer with what they want. Not what you feel that they should want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParryPerson Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 various aspects need to be cleaned up... and the coments on the shisha are down right elitist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 um Moose....i have to ask..if its a rotator, it means you can pass the hose easier...a 3 hose rotator just seems kinda redundant you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are currently looking into shipping overseas. I will have an answer to you as soon as I can. To further explain our tobacco choice, we wanted to try and take the guess work out of buying hookah and hookah products. Most sites carry everything under the sun, whether it works or not. We are trying to carry only products we know work and are at a good price. Of all the shisha brands we have tried, we think these two brands are the best. There are other good brands out there but we do not believe you can beat these two brands based on a quality and price combination. Our hope is that no one will ever regret a purchase from our site. What other brands do you like? We are always open to trying new ones if we find some with the same level of quality and value of these two brands.
