Apets22 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 So after I joined this board, maybe a week or so ago, my eyes were opened to all new kinds of tobacco and phunnel bowls and hoses. I also ran out of tobacco, and there arent any good hookah shops Im aware of in Grand Rapids Michigan (where I go to school) so I have been unable to find anything decent.So I went this magical place called the internet and ordered me some Al Walha, some Starbuzz, and some Tangiers from Hookah-Shisha, as well as a Tangiers small phunnel bowl from MNhookah. And so now I wait...sitting in my apartment glancing at my idle Mya ever so often, checking the UPS tracking number every few hours (Its en route from Austin, Texas to Ohio right now) thinking about the magical smokes I will be having...soonI understand this was a pretty pointless topic, but Im sure people can sympathize with me.

a_shimoon Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Aug 12: I place an order with Hookah SmokingA couple days later: I want more. I order from Hookah ShishaA couple days later: I want more. I order from Hookah HubNOTHING YET!!! Although, Hookah Hub looks like it will be here tomorrow. Oddly enough, it was the last of my orders.I get impatient waiting and waiting. I nearly ordered from MNH today. I think I will soon. I need a phunnel, scalli mod, Starbuzz, maybe even a new pipe.I can't wait. I feel your pain.

mix_tape Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I feel your pain. Saturday did a nice big order from h-s and it still hasn't shipped. Should tomorrow. Plus I love in Canada so that generally takes a while and if it gets caught in customs and even longer wait. I'm also very impatient when it comes to waiting for my orders, take to long.

Doubon Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 it always sucks... but the best way to cope is to keep it out of your head until the day its supposed to arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leadpipecinch21 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 the best way to not worry about how long it takes is to restock before you run out. life lessons people... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zinite Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 No kidding... I placed an order at h-s on Sunday and for some reason UPS says it'll take til Friday to deliver. I live in Tucson... Austin, Texas -> Tucson, Arizona shouldn't take more than 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I can relate in reverse...MNH takes 4-5 days for me... H-S... 1 day. Austin, TX > Wichita Falls, TX ...straight shot up 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamscott06 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I'v waited all week for my package and today it finally arrives! I feel your pain every month when I order shit..

Apets22 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 According to the trackers both the tobacco and my phunnel have arrived at my apartment. I am currently in class, so I cant exactly smoke it now.But my question is how should I break in the phunnel bowl? Im really excited for the Tangiers, but as Ive seen it takes some practice to get it right. So Im not sure if I should just smoke the starbuzz for the first bowl and just have a great smoke, or should I just dive right in try the tangiers?This is an extremly trivial question and regardless, Im going to enjoy it (I havent smoked hookah in 4 days!) Just curious what you guys think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
