Johnny_D Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I can only speak of two sites.www.hookahcompany.com I have ordered twiceandwww.mnhookahs.com I have ordered 18 times from.mnhookahs are great. And Tarik really goes that extra mile for me.It's worth keeping orders smaller and i would never order more than 500g's of tobacco... just in case our friends in customs pick it up.I once ordered from socialsmoke and they put the word 'tobacco' on the customs forms. I got raped for £271 on 750g's of tobacco. Keep it small and light - and find a vendor you can trust.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haz Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I never bother ordering coals. There are enough quicklites on sale and they're not that expensive either. The cheapest was £3 for a box of 80 quicklites. Deal of the century if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muhammad Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 For AL-Fakher alfakheronline.com is the best, I ordered six 50g flavours and cost me £30 which is cheap cmpared to UK sites, also had no problems with customs because they send it as if it is a gift.From what of heard from other UK buyers mnhookahs.com is good too.

Haz Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 £30 for 250g!!! Thats crazy. Even in the UK I can get 1kg of AF for £30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muhammad Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I've checked shops near where I live and they all sell fake al-fakher! alfakheronline.com was the best option for me, oh and by the way £30 was including delivery. If you know of any UK sites that are cheaper to purchase please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Don't know of any online vendors but I know a few places in leicester that sell AF for £30 per kilo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muhammad Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 OH hey I'm from Leicester too lol, which shop? I've so far only found fake al-fakhers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Majlis on belgrave gate sells AF at £30/kilo. On Evington road there is a shop opposite spar that sells AF at about £15/250g but be careful cause the also have fake AF on sale as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrShisha Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Well i order from Hookahcompany. My parcel just came through yesterday, honest opinion is basically that my order was approved on June 29 and was shipped July 12. I had a right go at them lol, but theyr well good realy and im sure what they said to me was honest too. They were giving away a free Al Amir Mocha Latte over 50 dollar order, they gave me havana grape instead, i asked for it:D. Plluuuus on my last order my Al Fakher Lemon 250g box leaked, it was alright but it leaked i told them they said next order theyl give me a free Al Fakher Lemon. I emailed them and asked that i already have some lemon, can i have some cherry or cola? Lo and behold they sent me a free Al Fakher Cherry. I believe they also didnt have Layalina Peach 250g in stock so they sent me 50g of Layalina Peach and 250g of Golden Al Fakher Bahraini Apple. July 12 shipped, July 21 here. Make of that what you wish!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at work when the parcel arrived, my pops signed for it, even my dad didnt even know what was in it lol, they are THAT discreet. Legends really, we huff a bit about the shipping but cant fault them otherwise. Edited July 24, 2007 by DrShisha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrShisha Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I dont know, just love the variety on hookahcompany. You name it they have it, on my last order, i had some nakhla, al fakher, fusion, al waha, mouj al bahr and Layalina, so much variety and so much to choose from. Whatever floats your boat!That Nakhla Bahraini Apple. WOAH. Talk about buzzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haz Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Hookahcompany can take really long with delivering parcels. I've heard good things about MNH so I'll probably try them next except they don't stock AF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muhammad Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 (edited) I'll have to check those places out, I'm low on Al-Fakher Grape at the moment so will need to be getting ready for my next order. I haven't ordered this yet but this may be by next order.Just checked alfakheronline.com, the new jasmine flavour is in stock!
