What $40 Can Buy You


Recommended Posts

Just got my order from alfakheronline.com for their summer sale with free 50g...

Pretty good deal, especially if you are:

1. New to hookah and want to try flavors

2. New to AF and want to know which flavor is best for you (because as much as others like flavors doesn't mean you will)

3. Love AF and want to get 1250g of your favorite flavors

I got 1000g of 50g and I bought a 250g of Golden Esk. Apple for $40...not a bad deal (I couldn't find the Esk. Apple at the other vendors unfortunately)

There is a part of me that loves you so very, very much for bringing this deal to my attention.

Yet there is a part of me still that loathes you for that exact same reason. I just bought over a kilo of shisha without even meaning to. It just...happened. It's not like I don't have enough already.

Wait, before I check out, am I really going to have to show ID when they deliver this? There's a high likelihood that I'm going to be in class when this gets delivered, so showing ID probably will not be able happen. Is this a scare tactic or do they actually require it?

Ummm... I've never heard of it happening. For any kind of order.

On every single page of this checkout thing, I have to check a box that says "I will show ID at the door" (paraphrased), but it says it will be shipped via FedEx. I don't really think this is common practice with FedEx, but I still don't want to have to go through the hassle. Besides, if I have a credit/debit card in my name, isn't that a pretty good indicator that I am at least 18?

is hojo underage??


I'm 18. The reason I can't show ID at delivery is because I am in college, and my classes may or may not interfere with the delivery time. If I have to be at home to show ID at the time of delivery, then there's no way I am purchasing from AFOnline. I just need to know from someone who has bought from them before I pull the trigger on this.

If you aren't there when they deliver they can either redeliver or you can pick up from them at your earliest convenience.

Blech, what a pain. I'm running out of Mint and fast, so I guess I don't have much of a choice. Thanks for all your help.

Alright, for shiggles:

I bought the buy 5, get 3 deal. I did this because I bought the AF sampler from H-S not too long ago, so I actually have unopened 50g of most of these flavors. But still:

50g Peach
50g Vanilla
50g Grenadine
50g Honey
50g Grape
50g Cola
50g Cinnamon
50g Grape w/ Mint

250g Mint
250g Golden Esk. Apple
250g Golden Grape

Grand Total (Shipping Included): $54.43

Not a bad deal for buying on a whim. I hookahtized a couple of friends over the weekend, so they keep calling me for more. I also introduced another friend to AF Mint, which is now his favorite flavor. I'm really looking forward to checking out those Golden flavors. Edited by Hojo

No problem! This is great, I smoked Rose tonight which I would've never purchased for $4 a 50g, let alone a 250g but it was uniquely amazing. I can't describe how unique it was except it's like literally like smoking a dozen Roses. Refreshing switch from the normal fruit flavors...point is I jumped on this because I wanted to learn what to buy in the future.

Reviews and opinions give you great ideas of the shisha's quality (smoke density, buzz, flavor longevity) and even a decent idea of flavor, however just because someone loves Mango and thinks its the best thing since sliced bread doesn't mean you will, and flavors vary brand by brand!

EDIT: Nice order Hojo, I wish now that I had picked up a Grenadine, always wondered what Pom. Shisha would taste like Edited by duckhater

It was a throw-in so I could reach 8 items, but it piqued my interest nonetheless. I'll try to get a review up for you ASAP so you can have some idea. It seems like such a weird flavor to try to turn into shisha, but I have faith in AF.
