Flachzange Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Hi there guys, I know, it's kinda... selfish to register only cause I need a conection in the USA to buy Al Fakher tobacco from but perhaps you know about the german tobacco law that makes it impossible to enjoy smoking any more. so if one of you is interested in making some money, just write or send me a PM. I'm going to buy at least 2-3kg, perhaps more. But - must be Al Fakher Thank you guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yashman19 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 So you need someone to ship a butt load of Al Fahker to Germany? Is there a risk of it getting confiscated at customs? I don't have any experience shipping things out of the country, so I don't know how it works. I don't think I can help you, but I thought I would ask some questions in case someone else might be able to help you. Good luck mang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Just order off a good website like Socialsmoke. That's what I do (i'm in the UK). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Tangiers, in the flat pack, fit neetly into envelopes which are skipping under inspection more frequently than other brands...try it from www.hookahcompany.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HookahDuck Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 double post. I would say try Tangiers as well. I was suprised to find mine in envelopes as opposed to boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjt486 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Envelopes, as in the shipping method? Mine came rolled in some bubble wrap in a box way too big for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flachzange Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 Well, thank you for the tip, but I don't know if it works with envelops. This kind of tobacco is forbidden in Germany and when they recognize where these envelopes are from, I'm afraid they'll check it The risk in sending by a private person is much lower. But as I said it is supposed to be Al Fakher It's just about sending me a box and say, it was jelly; or what... as far as I know, they check every 3rd box. And I'll pay in advance, so there's no danger about that I'll try Tangiers but I also want to try it that way. So again mfs, who is disposed to help me with that stuff?

Izzletodasmizzle Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 i know it doesnt help ya but why did they just ban shisha there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dizzing Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 a lot of places will take special requests on their order via a phone call or special field on the order screen. if you ask that it be shipped unmarked as a gift, most places gladly oblige, and i've heard of many people getting shisha that way with good results.

ahwahoo2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Might not be the best idea to write gift on a package heading for Germany.... My German isnt great, but I'm pretty sure "gift" in German traslates to "poison." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahwahoo2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Jokes aside, if you really want it that badly, PM me and I will see what I can do for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flachzange Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 @Izzletodasmizzle they didn't ban it, but you're only allowed to buy tobacco with less than 5% wetness. now try to smoke this sh*t . and only nakhla produces such tobacco, so the choice isn't that big @ahwahoo yop, gift is poison, but I wanna see the person that takes that for serious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjt486 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I dont think anywhere on my boxes from hookahcompany.com did it specify anything about hookah. It just had georges name on it.Strange rule about the wetness though, I wonder why that should matter.Good luck getting it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Hookah websites send out international packages on a daily basis so they know the ins and outs. They're not so stupid as to write tobacco on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donkeema Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 less than 5% wet? man thats a bummer! and i thought england was bad with all there driving polices when i could be driving a 2 tonne truck in pakistan as we speak at the age of just 15...damn you have it bad...

sheeshabum Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Someone who sells Al Fakher online writes "fruit preserves" on the package instead of tobacco. It goes through every time. Ask them to write that on the packing slip.It realy IS a fruit preserve.The fruit isPreserved so well that I would decline to eat it more than a gram at a time infront of the cusstoms officer.

Besides, how would I fit a bowl in an envelope?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjt486 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Eric, I have since ordered kashmir peach from George at hookahcompany.com. He first made the mistake of sending kashmir apple, in a box (ordered some other accessories though...) and then when he sent the replacement kashmir peach he once again bubble wrapped it and put it in a box.That would have been a huge envelope to hold as much as you sent me.

Sonthert Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Ah, George recently switched to envelopes more, I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
