combs08 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Hey I'm new here and sort of new to the world of hookah. I've gone to lounges a good number of times so I decided that it was time I get one of my own. I've done a TON of researching, but still haven't found something that caught my eye. I've been looking at some packages from Caravan and they seem pretty good. I would like to get one but I want to get your input on them and wanted to know if you've bought a package and how good/bad it was OR if you know of any decent package deals. I would like it to be at least 29" but it doesn't have to be, just a look preferance Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combs08 Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Oh and my price range is around a MAX of $75 including shipping but even 75 is pushing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moefasaaa Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) http://www.hookahjohn.com/product.sc?categ...p;productId=187there's a Magdy Zidan 29" hookah for $65, and then there'd be a $10 shipping charge added on totaling to $75, but you wouldn't get any shisha or coals with it, just a hose, bowl and tongs.Sorry to say, but I don't think you'll be getting a 29" hookah package deal shipped for $75 bro, that is if you want a quality hookah that will be worth your money and last you.If you want a mini-hookah, I'd go with a mya. http://www.hookah-shisha.com/store/pc/conf...;idproduct=4173http://www.hookah-shisha.com/store/pc/conf...;idproduct=1485they're 12-inch pipes, but quality pipes at that...you can find their reviews on this forum under the reviews section.these packages come with 2 50g packs of shisha, 2 rolls of quicklight golden coals, and other accessories.best of luck, maybe some other members can give you some better input. Try the trade section of this forum as well, there are some reputable members on here that are always selling/trading their hookahs and shisha Edited June 19, 2009 by Moefasaaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcane Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 i don't think you'll find a 29+" quality hookah for less than $75...well, the MZ is supposed to be good. Maybe go with what Moe said...and put in the HJ discount...that'll knock off enough to get you a 250g of nakhla... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delSol_si Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 momatik's suggestion is good.If you can bump it up to $100, hookah-shisha still has that promotion going on that you can get a free mini-mya with a $100 or more purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moefasaaa Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 true! what arcane said....15% discount on HJ before monday!!! (lebtrip).

combs08 Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Actually, I'm a girl but I've been thinking about it and I think I'll just get a Mya. Might as well get something good and that will last a while. Thanks for all your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moefasaaa Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 If I were you, I'd go with the mya bambino or chic on h-s with the 15% discount chase stated up there ^...mya's are just all-in-all built sturdier, and look better. If this's your first hookah, a mini-hookah will do the job and get you introduced to set-up, clean-up, heat management, packing, etc....they smoke just as good as a big hookah.hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any specific one?I side with Moefasaaa on this one, if price is an issue stay with the chic or bambino, both smoke great and won't break your bank.Any Mya will smoke great and be easy to set up, you'll have a blast.

jezter6 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Did you check HookahJohn's package deal for the QT? Comes with a box of coals and 3x50g Al Fahker.I think last I saw it was ~$58 + 10.95 shipping, and you could still afford a few 50g packs or a 250g Nakhla and still be right at $75.
