Rani Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Okay, so I'm in Orange County at meetings today and decided to stop by my new favorite smoke shop and fell in love (or at least gottahaveit lust) with a 32" KM ice chamber pipe with a beautiful green and gold vase. I noticed when I picked it up it was heavier than most pipes I've held lately, but it's my first ice chamber so I didn't think anything of it. More metal, more weight, right? Originally $179, but on sale for $139 and because I'm a good customer she knocks another $10 off it. I didn't bargain - she was just nice. So $129 for a normally $179 pipe. But wait...... There's a surprise....I'm driving home with the pipe and up at the very top of the stem where the beveled edges of the metal come together, I see a familiar glint. That is NOT the silver of steel I'm looking at. So I get home and bring it upstairs and examine the stem closely. Yep, you might have already guessed - solid brass core. So I'm sitting here with a gorgeous new pipe - A KM brass cored ice chamber that I picked up for $129. The only word that comes to mind is.......SCORE!Oh, and because I want to stay a good customer, I called and asked her about it and yes, she knew it was brass cored, many of the ones they have are because they ordered in huge quantities before KM switched entirely to stainless steel. I just happened to fall in love (or was it lust?) with one that happened to be brass. I'm so happy.......'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
