lonasindi Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I don't know if it's exchange rates talking or what, but that comes out to nearly the same price as the more expensive shisha, in USD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayVer Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 thats because the US dollar is no longer worth anything lolQUOTE (lonasindi @ Dec 12 2007, 05:50 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I don't know if it's exchange rates talking or what, but that comes out to nearly the same price as the more expensive shisha, in USD.

Johnny_D Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 Yer it's basically £1=$2.Which means that it's bloody super cheap for me to buy Amercian tobacco. But one likes to try new things occasionally.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one likes to try new things occasionally.JDIn malta Lm1 = $3 but i still dont see the appeal of ordering from USA, the shipping always comes expensive. like I checked the prices for a MYA Acrylic, the hookah is $56 and the shipping is $36..

Johnny_D Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 Well It depends on that internal value of Lm1 (which i don't know) But because of the position of the £/$ it makes ordering from the us very cheap.And consider that you cannot actually get things like layalina, tangiers, mya products, japense coals, exotica coals. None of these things are available inside the uk.If you work out the cost per g of tobacco in the uk compared [even with shipping] it works out much cheaper.And I only pay for the express (5 day) shipping.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yalgo.com Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Honest OpinionI sell this on my website also, but the honest opinion is as follows:The flavour is very good, and its very different to the other flavours out there.But, and here's the BUT, it doesn't smoke as long as Al-Fakher, and its a lot smoother than Al-Fakher, if you like a strong nicotine hit, then i still recommend AL-Fakher.Strangely enough as well, it really makes the water go red? I think it has too much colouring in the molasses.Overall, worth the price, and good to get a different flavour to the rest.As always, this is in my humble opinion, evreryone has different tastes, and ways of preparing flavours.

Scimita_R Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) i dont usually buy tobacco in the UK, but looks like its worth giving it a try, it looks nice n juicy like al fakher, and £8.99 for 250g compared to al fakher 250g is quite a price difference, my nearest source in leicester sells al nakhla 250g for £6, so if this is as good as al fakher then its definately worth the price.edit: and its egyptian so i have to try it, i havent seen tried this brand in egypt yet..
