frost91 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I went to a local shop in New York yesterday, thinking the taxes would be killer, but not so much.I bought 5 boxes of mizo for 35 dollars.7 Dollars a box!But nakala use to be 4 dollars a box, now its 6!Al Fakher is still 10 dollars a box and Starbuzz is 18.Also i bought 10 boxes of starlight naturals, cost me 50 dollars.So ultimately, taxes arent that bad, besides for nakala.

mitchard Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 One their stocks go down and they have to reorder, I would probably expect some increases in their prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shisha fan Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 mnhookah hasn`t changed their prices yet, so that might be worth a look. they have an al fakher 5-pack deal for $40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKammenzind Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 It's not a huge difference. They're still stealing our money though, but at least in this case it's in the attempt to do something decent I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just paid $5.50 for regular Cherry and Sweet Melon at a local place. I wish they had some Mizo, or Fahkfakhina (sp?), but I can stock up on their regular selection and not feel bad about paying more +shipping for the other stuff I want.
