vegloo Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 okay, thanks a lot! if you have any suggestions for cheapish hookah's, i'd appreciate any info. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Morgan Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I'd be leary of it for 2 reasons:1.) It's extremely cheap. Anything that cheap I'd be suspicious about.2.) It's on ebay. From what I understand that's not the best place to try and get a hookah from.Personally I'd hit up http://www.gothookahs.com/ and pick up a Magdy Zidan.

Thanks!this was my first hookah, given to my by my best friend when i used to work at a hookah lounge.i'll be honest with you the hookah seemed good when i got it then again it was my first hookah.pros:its a hookah so it's better than no hookah.very easy to clean and it's rather portable.cons:white crusty shit fills the downstem after a couple uses even with thorough cleaning. very small and fragile downstem.shitty made.the base feels rather un sturdy.get little smoke unless using a phunnel bowl.very easy to break, i broke mine(downstem)then i broke my friends base =x it literally fell like 4 inches lolso if i were you i would wait and save like 60 bucks and buy a decent hookah. gothookahs.com has very cheap prices on some nice setups.it wasnt until i got my mya(r.i.p.)that i realized how shitty the other hookah really was.

mya2323 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I took my hookah to a party the other day and one guy had a cheapo hookah and he practically said that his tasted like crap compared to mine... I had a mya...I knew the owner of a hookah lounge...and he recommended the MYA because it's the most durable and longest lasting...Yeah you can buy 3 or 4 Hyundai's or Kias but why not just by a really nice car that lasts even longer? And runs better?You get what you pay for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codename067 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Does not look like a great hookah by any means. It will smoke of course and if thats all you want, then go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickReppinThe909 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 DONT BUY IT when the shipping is more than the item its a no no in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 ya, its just a cheap chinese sultan jr or some such. The paint on the vase is likely to peel off leaving you with a clear glass vase after a while. The 22 bucks shipping more than covers the cost of the hookah AND the shipping. It's just a fee avoidance gimick. it will work but it's not going to be a great hookah. Look around soem more at some of our vendors in the vendor section, and check the trades section. Someone might be trying to sell a perfectly good hookah for cheap...I also have been personally ripped off by that company so I'm not a fan in the first place, but my assesment of the hookah is unbiased i promise.
