insidius Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Does anyone know of a place online that sells StarBuzz that doesn't charge an arm and a leg for shipping?I've only found two places that even sell it and they're charging $10 shipping for 200g of tobacco. Is this going to be about the same wherever I go?Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Well where do you live, and where is it going to be shipped to? And I'm not sure you realize this, but they won't be charging you $10/tub of tobacco. As you add more tubs to your shopping cart, shipping will only go up slightly, not $10/tub.So whenever I buy stuff from online, I always try to buy in larger quantities to save on shipping. If I make a bunch of small orders from multiple sites, I'm paying through the roof in shipping alone. Try and buy a few tubs, 3-4 to get your monies worth.Or, give us a bit more info like where you live, and the sites you've already looked at.

I live in Ohio in the United States. I'll probably just order another bag just to lessen the shipping per bag cost. I really can't see any other option at this point.EDIT: It's really no big deal. I keep forgetting the forum discount, that basically cuts the shipping down considerably. Edited June 4, 2007 by insidius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming the social smoke custom blend is just a mix of StarBuzz flavours?The only thing I've smoked so far is Al Fahker Plum and Al Fahker Bahraini Apple.

That sucks, I've never done that before, I'll have to look for info on that.As far as the social smoke blend, it's under the StarBuzz flavours, so I think it might actually be a StarBuzz composition, just blended by social smoke.

3rooker Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Acclimating is just letting the shisha sit out so it matches the humidity of the air you will be smoking in. Just let it sit out for a couple of hours.TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when I'm ready to smoke, I assemble my hookah, pop the bowl on, light up, and smoke.TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I dont think starbuzz needs much acclimation... its more important to do that with unwashed tabacco i thought. Anyways, how much did those 3 100g bags cost including shipping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAKCuMG Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Social smoke blend rocks!!!Its really minty with a hint of chocolate, but unlike their chocolate mint, its more minty than chocolatey. Chocomint is really chocolatey, with a hint of mint. Social smoke blend is one of my alltime faves. White peach rocks, white grape is too candylike for my taste.

All are big sellers in my lounge, and I can almost guarantee that you will want more of each :-). Oh, and also SB is ready to smoke out of the bag, no need for acclimation in my experience.

There is confirmed White Peach, Peaches and Cream, and possibly just a plain peach flavour that everyone keeps talking about (but I have yet to see a plain peach flavour myself, as I was wondering much the same, so I assumed everyone was talking about White Peach in the review section).

So, when you hear someone referring to peach and/or white peach, they are the same flavor. Peaches and cream, however, is a different flavor. It is new, and it is not all that good. White Peach is arguably the best starbuzz flavor, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allia22 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I just got a tub of SB white peach about a month ago... Honestly, I can't smoke it, it's waaaaaaaaay too sweet If you're willing to see if they got the bugs out of it, go for social smoke's 100g sample packs.

Skarredmind Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Thanks for the answer Blue and the tip Allia I'm kinda kicking myself for not adding them onto my order we social smoke (I have a new non-crappy hookah coming!! yay!!!) That being said I already have about 20 50g packs of various stuff to smoke my way through so maybe its better that I didn't open a new tobacco lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
