cypress Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I would not bother with that. Order online and ask for the freshest stuff they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 A very similar thread was made just yesterday. It is fine to smoke for 2 years after the production date as long as it is unopened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Easy man, I agree with you in principle, especially with the date/exp. date thing, but atleast one person thought they were talking about dtae flavoured ma'asell so clarification was not unreasonable. Once it became apparent they were about the same thing one topic should have continued and the other should havequickly been left behind. I myself have advocated using the search engine a few times and often use it myself before posting. But lets face it, It's not exactly the best one I've seen and sometimes the sheer volume of topics it calls up makes the search itself useless. We are going to be getting new people all the time, with luck, and you're just going to have to get used to seeing the same questions over and over. This is an information source after all, and most new people have the same questions. If you want to only see things that are new EVERY time and then only things that interest you, perhaps you should start a forum of your own for the experienced hookah smokers free of noobs. Plus the side bar chat function is a joke. Many of us are friendly folks who enjoy talking informally about hookahs using the forum, not just posting crucial hookah data. Perhaps only reading topic headers on subjects of interest to you will save you the agrivation of dealing with the rest of us chilling and smoking.

alen Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 dont worry you can keep your asbestos clothing in the closet this was not a declaration of war and when it comes to chill so is that my middle name -but i saw this coming- but seriously dont you think there is little to much same same the last couple of mounth and another thing i think that its [b]great[/b] with new members and im more than willing to help if i can-myself didnt became a member the first time i stumbled on this forum i took me nearly a mounth to check it out and finding answers from the people that was allready there- but hey do you really think its so hard to check out earlier threads and see if you can find the things you are looking for before you open thread after thread?i mean if you wanna find out something about screens why not go to a thread about screens and continue that - i dont know if some ppl know this but if you go to a earlier thread it will come up on the top just like the new thread would if you know what i mean so i think my hookah friend that you maybe should do some chilling beacuse all i tried was to come with some constructive critisism well its not the first time you guys critisise me for speaking up (guess its easy to throw sh*t on a guy from the other side of the planet) -dont think ill say more about that then maybe the sh*t really hits the fan so whos next in line ?

nidal105 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 hey everyone, With the Fakher, for those who can't read Arabic, the date printed on the box is the date of production. It is good for 2 years after, so if it said 2003 on it, it is prob still OK but its unusually old...I bought a box of AF double apple today that was produced in March 2005, it was so fresh you could smell it from 2 metres away while it was still packed and sealed! seeya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alen Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 hey there nidal i had the same luck when i orderd some a.f double apple last time-i could smell it thru the post package- so nice its not allways you get it so fresh so you are a lucky guy take care - alen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Most of the stuff I just got from Hookahcompany is march/april Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alen Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 great zap i just orderd some A.F G.S + Quema from hookahcompany i really hope mine is that fresh too-btw was it any probs with the custom ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Nope not at all. He is a really friendly guy. After making my order and paying, I asked him to add a 500g of Amasi memory mix because it wasn't listed on the site at the time. He didn't even ask for extra shipping. You can get faster shipping as opposed to the slow 2 week one if you email him. My regular shipping was $36 and I added another $12 for 3-4 days.

alen Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 hmm i didnt know- i took the international shipping and i just recived a message that i should have my stuff in 4-10 daysbut thanks for the advice now im know til next time i just see how its goes with the customs here if its no prob im thinking to get me some layalina + some other new stuff i havent tried- and how was that memory mix are you gonna do a review do you think?

ZAP Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Well I ordered Layalina rasplberry and eskandarani. Only a couple of people have said anything about the raspberry but what I found seems good and some said the esk was better than AF so I thought i'd give it a shot. I actually haven't tried any of my new stuff yet because their is decorating going on and i'm not a good review writer anyway. I am going to be sending samples to King Mo so you can expect quality reviews there. There is a pretty long thread on the memory. It is meant to be really good. Plus it was a bargain at $18 for 500g! 250g is $10. Getting a little off topic now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alen Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 oh yeah sorry i should have looked for earlier threadsthanks for reminding me(guess whos feeling stupid now) [b]sorry[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
