Winter Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 (edited) And I have to say, I'm very pleased. I ordered a little less than two weeks ago with their freeshipping and recieved it 2days before the two weeks was up. When I opened my box, I was pleasantly surprised to see a 250g Tangiers Red Tea thrown in for free along with my other goods - Blue Nammor hose, Cherry/Cappuccino/Cola Al Fakher, 250g Orange Al Waha, 84pc Coconara coals, and a small funnel bowl.I know many of us have had problems with packages, but mine came perfectly and with a nice surprise. Thank you Neal and Holly, even though you probably can't see this right now.The only problem I had with the hose was when I was washing it, the blue ink on the outer hose seemed to leak a little. No actual fading of color from the hose, but there was definitely blue dye/ink leaking off because my bathtub's water turned blue. Weird.

filmigeek Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I ordered from DPG a couple of weeks ago, before the most recent drama-fest relating to them here on the boards, because I've been trying a bunch of different vendors commonly mentioned here to see which ones I want to stick with. I didn't have any major complaints about promptness; the order came within 14 days which is about what I'd expect for no shipping fees. However, while I ordered:1 250g tub Al Fakher Cinnamon1 250g tub Al Fakher Two Apples1 250g tub Al Fakher RoseI received1 250g tub Al Fakher Cinnamon5 50g packets Al Fakher Two Apples3 100g tubs Starbuzz Rose1 50g packet Fantasia mango.I didn't complain or anything; it didn't seem worth the trouble to be that persnickety. I got the right flavors, and Starbuzz and Fantasia are more expensive brands, and overall I got 100g more shisha than I ordered. (Though I would never, ever, ever have selected mango.) I am not experienced enough a smoker to care that much about getting exactly the brands I ordered. But I would have appreciated a note, or an email, or something. And I suspect other people might be more annoyed by the substitutions than I was. In short, if not for the stuff being said in the other thread, I might have given them a second chance, but from what I'm reading I think maybe I'll stick with some other vendors instead, even if I have to pay shipping.

Bulldog_916 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Use another site and pay the shipping. With the HF discount you wont have a shipping fee, practically. Ur just paying full price for the stuff. I can get an order from HC in 2 days and they are about as far away as Neal is. You do the math. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do the math.Interesting. The reason why I ordered from DPG was because I didn't read up on what happened to Neal's store and other various issues people had with them before I ordered. I probably won't be ordering from DPG in fear of my package/goods being lost or messed up, so I will definitely take what you said into consideration.Thanks!
