Mirus Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 I have a box of Coco's already =D So I wanted to try something new.And yea it was. I had some difficulty with my card, but Chuck called me and everything is fine now. I wish they had Layalina Vanilla, I bought some Nakhla and it seriously just about ruined my MYA QT. I will always have Ghost with me, but this will be a nice replacement. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebulaluna Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Cool. I would have done the faster shipping too. I hate waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKammenzind Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I'll never understand why people will sometimes pay double or more just to have something 2 days faster haha, but to each his own I suppose.I think I've heard that gothookahs has a problem with their shipping calculator though, might want to contact them about that charge and see if it's a screw-up... because that's pretty cruel.

Codename067 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Nice. As much as I hate waiting, I think it's worth a while. The longer you wait, the bigger the anticipation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirus Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 I was actually thinking of starting a KM trimetal collection. Are there any other sites with trimetals besides GH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickReppinThe909 Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 hookahcompany has a few but hookahjohn has the most tri metal kms i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirus Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 Well, I got my order in last night! The KM is beautiful, the coals smaller than I thought but not a problem, and the shisha is wonderful.I'll post pictures as soon as I take them.Gothookahs also sent me two 50g packs, one each of Layalina Mint and Layalina Peach. Everything has been great so far. Layalina, in my experience, isn't a heavy-cloud-shisha, but really deep, good flavors. Unfortunately, I think they changed their Blueberry recipe because now it smells and tastes like a purple tootsie pop. But Passion fruit... seriously... aw man it is soooooo delicious. Smells exactly like a strong flavored passion fruit and tastes wonderful. If only I could get clouds, this brand would be the only brand I would smoke! I tried the Mint, Strawberry Kiwi, Blueberry, and Passion Fruit last night. Today I'm gonna try for some clouds with AF Mint, then the Layalina Peach. If it weren't for the price of shipping, I'd order from Gothookahs all the time.All in all, I'd give everything a 8.5/10 as far as the customer service, quality, and product goes from Gothookahs.

Mirus Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 I found out a few other flaws.1: The grommets it came with don't give an air-tight seal for the bowl, even the stock bowl it came with.2: The bowl was poorly made, the glazing not even covering it to the bottom of the bowl.3: A small dent in the handle of the hose, nothing big, but enough to pick up on. Probably due to shipping.4: The gold paint on the base rubbed off with just water, not even scrubbing it. Just from washing out the inside with a little water getting on the outside, my fingers rubbed off the paint.I think I will be calling Chuck tomorrow to ask why I was shipped these, while not quite poor quality, but definitely under par items. I'm kind of bummed out. I expected top quality when I ordered a Khalil Mamoon and I got that. I hope he's willing to listen to the problems I've found.

TheFallofSidney Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Sorry to hear that man. Issues like that make me glad I spent a few extra bucks to buy locally. In fact, the first stem I picked up had a hole in it (cosmetic but still bothersome), so I took it back and was able to switch it out without a hitch. I also exchanged my vase for a different one without a problem too. Some of us are lucky to live in areas that are stocked with local smoke shops though.
