HookahCaterpillar Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Hi, My brother is a big cigar smoker and he does this thing on a cigar forum where one person starts with about 15 cigars and they send it to one member and whatever that person takes out he has to replace the same amount with another kind of cigar and then sends it off to the next person and so on. Each person takes a record on a piece of paper what he took and put in. I was thinking maybe we could do something like that on this forum with shisha. If you all agree just let me know and i dont mind starting it if its a bad idea let me know and it doesnt have to happen. Just a fun idea i was thinking of. Please provide some input on the idea. Thanks &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; &nbs p; ~HC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghunfrytimma Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Sounds like a good idea to me.....if we got enough people then wed just leave the choosing of the tobacco up to you hopefully with some variation in brands and flavors...

uselessdreamer1 Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 this is called a box pass. Someone starts filling the box with tobacco, hoses ect. then they send it to the next person in a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 Well its not up to me see the way it works is ill start with a certain amount. Each person takes a certain amount and replace with the same amount. The idea i had was to include a certain size container or cup that holds like 50 grams or so and each person takes incriments of that container size. Thats smart useless dreamer we could also put hoses and bowls and stuff. Whoever wants to be part of it throw me a PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 That's fine..but to be honest we've had problems occasionaly with people not sending their part of a simple trade of samples, so I wouldn't want someone to decide they were too busy to pass the box if you know what I mean. Many of us trade samples reguarly, though I guess it goes on in pm's and through the chat window. Gods know I've been sending and receiving enough Ma'asell lately to open a small import business... A while ago we had a thread where folks posted what they had to trade, and what they might be looking for in return. Newer folks would post what they wanted to try even if they had nothing to trade at the moment for picks to be named at a later date sorta thing once they started their own stash. We could revive that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahDuck Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 I'd be really excited about the idea. I have a ton of ma'assel (probably about 2500 grams) and I only smoke a few times a week. Becuase im not using up my tobacco, its difficult for me to keep running out and buying more. However, one of my favorite aspects of smoking hookah is constantly trying new flavors/brands. I think I'll post a ma'assel trade thread with all my stash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 Yea that would be better because your right I am kind of worried about sending off alot of money worth of shisha to someone i hardly know and trust them to send it off to the next person. A simple trade between 2 ppl would be alot more simpler and more effective. If that person did screw me over i would only be out like 10$ rather then 100$.

jmexx Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Would it really work? I don't mind passing some ma'assel and trading and such, if enough variety of tobacco is out there.It'd probably work better through PMs or emails, though.Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 After joining this forum i realized there is so much more shisha out there I want to try. I just placed an order with Fumari and got white peach, exotic mango, blueberry, passion fruit, plum, black cherry, nectarine, and watermelon. I certainly dont mind trading a little bit for some other flavors i have never tried if someone is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HookahCaterpillar Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 well it was a package of 4 flavors for 25$ i got 2 packages of 4. so it ended up costing like 58 bux w/shipping. I never heard of fumari and when i saw the list of flavors they have i went crazy haha. All i usually smoked was nahkla and al waha with the regular old flavors.

I love california dream but bubblegum i dont like its way too minty for me. Al waha grape i have had b4 too.Im pretty acustomed to nakhla and al waha flavors i have smoke the brands for years. I love nahklas sweet melon its one of my favs. And al waha rasberry IS my all time fav flavor that and there 5 star is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartvarg1 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 nakhla peach...makes my mouth water just thinking about it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 ya kno i used to love there peach at one time but now i think it has a funny taste. It always makes me shiver/cringe when i hit it. I like my peach to taste more like a fuzzy navel drink. But all my friends and my brother is a huge fan of nahkla's peach so i dont think its a bad flavor its just not for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shishasmokinstoner420 Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hey, whats up? Im Hookahcaterpillar's brother, and new to the forum. The trade off idea would be cool. -Iheartverg1, I really like the california dream too, I was kinda sceptical when i ordered it, but I will definetely be ordering some more soon. I cant wait to try the stuff my bro ordered from fumari, they seem expensive but I've been wondering if companies like them exist. Peace, and keep puffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny_Z Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 [quote name='iheartvarg1']avoid nakhla and al waha mango at all costs[/quote] Hmm... maybe I'm one of those freak-o's, but I thought Nakhla Mango was quite good! It had that distinct piney flavor that mangos have and I thought it was really realistic and pleasent... then again I only smoked it a few times because I don't like mangos all that much when it comes to the real fruit. As far as Nakhla Peach goes.. I think I said this in another thread, but I tried Nakhla Peach once about 3 years or so ago and all it tasted like to me was a bar of soap. Maybe I just got a bad batch of it or something because I've heard a lot of people talking about how much they enjoy it lately. So given that I feel I have to pick up another box of it within the next few weeks and give it another try, unless of course someone here would like to trade some Nakhla flavors with me. Right now the only things I really have enough of to trade are Nakhla flavors (and one Romman flavor), but if your interested heres my little list... Nakhla ==== Apple Strawberry Askandarany Apple Orange Mint Cola Cappuccino Romman ====== Peach I know thats a pretty weak little list, but I've been buying all my Al-Fakher in 50 gram packs lately (cause I can get them from a shop 2 blocks away for $2.50 a peice) so I never really have enough Al-Fakher available to trade. But yeah, if you've got some Nakhla Coconut, Bannana, Vanilla, Peach, Margarita, Tropicana, Chocomint, Caramel, Grape, or Lemon and want to trade let me know. I figure the only fair thing to really trade Nakhla for is other Nakhla LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shishasmokinstoner420 Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 The way i think would be best is to take samples of whatever u have, whatever u take is what u put back in. However generous u wanna be for putting more than u took is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HookahCaterpillar Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 Theres another thread that hookahduck started called lets trade m'assel. Its a much better idea then a box trade. We could trade bowl for bowl rather then trading real amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
