lynzblythe Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Either I am very impatient or the hookah I am ordering is coming very slowly. Meanwhile, I have ma'assel to smoke, but nothing in which to smoke it! It smells so good, too! Romman Double Apple! (the only brand my local glass shop sells) So, can anyone help me out in the interim? I live in an apartment with two other people, so there are bottles/cans/myriad of other supplies. Thanks!

John Deere Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I would say just wait, It will never be the same as smoking out of a hookah. If it's worth doing, its worth waiting for I always say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 I agree. I can't get hold of Genuinehookahs.com though. They won't give me any shipping info. Ay! How long does shipping normally take anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 UPS takes 5-7 work days coast to coast. How was yours sent? Has your account been charged for the purchase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YelloSno84 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Trth be told....i was actually thinking of going out and buying rolling papers to smoke the ma'assel but then i realized that it's not supposed to actually burn (as dry cigarette tobacco) and realized it would probably taste like crap....so i vetoed my idea. Just thought I'd share my retarted thought with you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Deere Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 You would have quickly learned what a mistake that would have been! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Haha, well...yeah, I've called them. No answer. Yes, I was charged for it. And yeah, you would've quickly realized your mistake Yello. I'll try calling them again. And again. And again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Deere Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Thats kinda shady of them. A lot of these places seem to be that way. It really is not good business practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynzblythe Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 I emailed GenuineHookahs and it seems as if it hasn't even been shipped yet. I asked for a tracking and confirmation number (provided to me immediately by Shisha Emirates) but they said I'll get one as soon as my order is shipped. Ay, mis dios.

Lord Dorian Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 hey yellosno, if you really want to smoke your ma'assel out of rolling papers it is possible, well sort of. First you must microwave it and then freeze it, and then microwave it again. After that go and grab a cigar and roll a blunt (for a tutorial on that consult a less legitimate website) and you're good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I have an idea..but you'll end up having to get another hookah. Tell them if they do not provide immediate shipping info you are cancelling your order. If they still say it hasn't shipped, cancel it and go to hookahcompany or socialsmoke or one of the more reputable places. Won't wait any longer since they will undoubtedly ship far quicker and probably go UPS, much better than the USPS genuinehookahs uses anyway. $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 This is the email I just sent them: On 8/15, I placed an order. On 8/18, I checked on that order and was informed that my credit card was being denied due to a mismatched address. I provided Genuine Hookahs the correct billing address, and was informed that the card went through. I asked how long shipping would take, and I was not given an answer. On 8/22, my card was charged. This is 4 days later from when I was informed the card was charged. On 8/23, I asked for a tracking and confirmation number. I was informed that I would be given this information once my order was shipped. This is getting ridiculous. My order seems to continue being postponed. No one is providing me with any information for my order I'm not very happy with this situation. Please give me immediate shipping information and my order status. -Lyndsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I would take mush's advise if you don't get satisfactory information in their e-mail if/when you get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 I agree. I figure the email I just sent wasn't too threatening. Then again, maybe it should've been. Hmm...well...I just called them before I emailed. I guess it was a bad connection 'cause he couldn't hear me. Anyway, I know someone's there. So, there's no reason for it to be ignored. Well...my last email was ignored. Good company, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 What hookah were you going to get? Can you get it anywhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 Enuf is enuf. If I was you I'd call your credit card have them cancel, then call them and e-mail them tell them you are cancelling. If they say it is sent, return to sender when it arrives, and check cancellation/mailing date on package. There ARE better companies out there. I've noticed ole genuinehookahs hisself hasnt logged on in a few days....hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 I sh*t you not, this is their reply to my email: [b]and we told you 5 times already that as soon as it gets shipped, you will get immediate confirmation. Read the website and it will tell you how many days it usually takes for orders to be processed and shipped out. God, lady...[/b] I am getting so f**king tired of this. The hookah I ordered was an acrylic Mya Saray. Sure, I could buy it at Mya's site, but I'd end up paying a bit more. And right now, I don't have money to spend. Advise me, please. Is it really worth trying to cancel it from my card (I dont' even know how to go about doing that.) and I'm frustrated about other things....Aaaah!

John Deere Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 call your bank/credit card company and cancel that transaction immediately, that is bullsh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynzblythe Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 I just called my bank and they said I'd have to cancel it through Genuine Hookahs. So, what do I do? Just email them and tell them to cancel the order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counter_Culture Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 i completley agree with JD...thats total bs..for u to order a hookah and still not be shipped within this time and yet they still have the urge to respond to ur email with an attitude with that, id cancel it in a second! i wud threaten them like said above, say ur going to cancel it if they dont do something about it asap! and if they talk back witha n attitude what-so-ever...i mean WHAT-SO-EVER...cancel that sh*t!
