Know Any Quick-lite Coal Companies That Recently Went Under?


Recommended Posts

I've got some no-label quick lites that smell like gasoline and cause day long migraines that I picked up from a local tobacco shop. The owner told me he couldn't afford to buy the minimum quantities of legit coals so he had to buy from a business that recently went under. This comes as no surprise to me as these coals are the bane of my wonderful Lucid BGB/Af Cherry mix right now... Anyway, I'm not sure what the point of this was other than to warn of no label coals like these

hookie, where do you live. I can probably tell him where to order from. where I get 3 kings from there is no minimum order.

that sounded a it fishy to me, not your post, but the reason why the store owner couldn't get "legit" coals. Are there really minimums on your side of the country? Sometimes store owners make excuses thinking the customer is dumb. I always hear great stories, usually goes something like this "no actually those are really good coals, just as good as 3Kings"
Anyways, try not to ruin your lungs/ears/throat/nose/eyes/hands with those.

ah yes like the man who told me chinese pipes are the best.

Or the one who told me that 3 Crowns are the exact same thing as 3K.

Or the guy who told me my AF pipe is gold plated.

Or the....you get the idea.

GNR, that's why I want a hookah shirt, when you roll in somewhere wearing activity-related apparel people tend to take you more seriously than someone in an SCU Ultimate sweatshirt. Tends to send the message of "I know my shit so don't bother" to the storeowners.

The local shop I go to if I ever run out of supplies simply says "I don't know" rather than lying to me, lol. "what kind of hookah is that?" "I don't know."

i like to use quick lites when i dont have alot of time to smoke cause they lite in like 20 sec's

Get John's instant light CH coals. They light in in under a minute. They don't last as long as 3K's do, but they don't taste like shit either.

Actually, wasn't there talk of a HF shirt at one time or another?

I think it would be a good idea! Don't know how they would get distributed, unless through HK since they own the forum.

Like 15 bucks or something, wouldn't be to bad, I would buy one, maybe two!

Yeah, companies that make coals to look like a good brand always end up sucking.

Best to just stay away.

EDIT: ERR nevermind... I see what happened... you edited the one you said that in. I though you were saying you shouldnt have posted something in the quotes.

All the best coals were made for incense, like Japanese coals.

There are lots of crummy rip-offs in the market.

Here's a tip: If they are trying to rip off a company, They aren't putting much thought into design or originality, so they aren't putting much into the quality either.
