PhxKarma Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 As some of you know I am planning on starting a hookah lounge in the next year, but I have come to realize that I am really not that familiar with all the brands and flavors of shisha, and would like to be able to be an expert on what I am selling. I decided I am going to open a online store, selling a few hookahs, but mainly keeping it to shisha and coals. I am going to keep it small, but still offer a wide variety of shisha, coals, and hookahs. I am looking to see what you guys think I should stock? Here is a Tenative Price List:Nakhla 250g - $6.75Al-Waha 250g - $8.00Layalina 250g - $9.50Al-Fakher 250g - $9.75Golden Al-Fakher 250g - $11Starbuzz 100g - $10Starbuzz 250g - $17.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get this going, you have a customer for life here. Shipping from Phx to Tucson is 1 day I think.In addition, you might want to stock some sort of coconut coal (Starlight, Coconara, Chron. Hookah). Maybe a limited collection of Tangiers as well (Horchata, Orange Soda, Mint, Red Tea, MCherry, some other popular ones). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to get tangeris, I just need to find a wholesaler for it. I might contact them directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog_916 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Find a wholesaler. Hookah company does some wholesaling, there are a few others too. You get the unit price cheaper than you would buying retail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
