So, I'm looking at ordering at the end of the month and I can't make up my mind so i figured everyone likes spending money that isn't theirs so here's the question. I'm up in the air as to which order i should put in. First off my collection

I have a KM Pharonie and a Mya QT and like 3kg of random shisha. Some tangiers, Nak, starbuzz, and layalina (layalina actually happens to be my one of my favorite brands becuase i can get it locally for pretty decent prices). So.... 2 options.

Option A ) Go through Hookah Shisha. I'm thinking of spending the 100 bucks on shisha and coals and getting the free mini mya. My buddies have been smoking my shisha (parents don't approve of smoking and i'm living with them for the summer so i left my stash at my friends house and told them they could smoke what they'd like). They are planning to replace about a KG of shisha of my chosing so i was going to order 100 bucks more in shisha on top of what they order and be set for the year. I plan on throwing quite a few parties so i figured the mini mya would be a perfect party hookah.


Option B ) I really love the look of the medium AF hookah. So i was thinking about going through John when he gets back and ordering that and a few 250's of Nak and then putting in another order around my birthday in october, and using my QT as a party hookah (even if the base breaks they aren't that awful pricewise to replace.

I am really torn becuase 100 bucks in shisha would last me a long time and either way i would be getting a hookah. Edited by sportsfan6216

i'd say option B...i'd rather have another hookah than more shisha. i can stretch shisha (using egyptians instead of phunnels), but when it comes to a quality hookah...i'd rather have it now than later.

in fact, i think i'm going to buy the AF Med Solid from John soon....

option b. those af pipes are sexy.

no need to throw down that much money for a party where the people (at least in theory) will be drunk and not remember shit about how the hookah smoked. your km is great and your qt cool too. but would you seriously ever use the qt and mini mya simultaneously? don't think so. the af is a great auxiliary pipe if something happens to the km (or vice versa) instead of being stuck using the qt (which is dece, but not satisfying like that brilliant egyptian or syrian craftsmanship would be). your friends are already buying you some tobacco + one of your favorite brands is available locally at a great price; why spend shipping on overpriced tobacco then? or you can wait a little bit and place your order for the af hookah and order one or two 250g of stuff that you really want or really want to try.

that's what i think. if you REALLY want a mini mya acrylic let me know and i'll hook you up with one on the VERY cheap.

Man I dunno, I say that Km has to smoke bomb and nothing out there will smoke better than that. So why buy a subpar hookah? I would say spend the money on the shisha, Nice pipes are worthless without something to smoke in them. And plus you will be getting a decent party/travel hookah to boot..

LOL.. battle of the football fan posters Real Madrid VS FcBayern Munchen...Eh Antouwan?

Go with all the shisha cause the AF will not live up the km and the mini will be a good travel hookah plus having a lot of shisha to choose from always rocks!

Id go with the mini

You allready got some nice hookahs. Get the shisha and the mini mya im sure will suprise you, it is a fine hookah that will be easy to transport due to the acrylic base. Plus you can really freeze those bases or put them in coolers without the worry of them cracking, and the smaller they are the easier they are to clean.

i think there's an easier answer to this....do you like collecting hookahs as well as smoking them? if so, Option B...

if you have hookahs strictly for their function and not form (stolen from Dr. B!), then go Option A.


i'm part of the former, so...i still recommend getting the hookah. Edited by arcane

Nothing against those AF hookahs, but I'd rather have a shit-ton of shisha to sample and smoke with a free hookah.

I don't like Chinese pipes and anything thats free should raise suspicion. I feel like if you buy the best you ever have to worry about looking back and regretting it. That's the Al Fakher hookah fo show. You buy that, you won't regret it. Sure, you'll have to spend more for tobacco, but you'll just be looking at the Al Fakher hookah three months from now going "Why didn't I buy that?"

I voted option B.

A while back I used to buy all kinds of different flavors to have on hand. Now, I have a ton of stuff left over that I never smoke.

On the other hand, I just bought my second AF hookah last night. You will definitely not go wrong with the AF hookah.

So after looking at stuff I think I'm going to go with the AF hookah and about six 250's of Nak and bank on the fact that eventually my friends will replace the AF, Starbuzz and tangiers they smoked this summer (matter of fact they did pick me up a 250 of F-line orange soda so that was a definite plus). I just think that the medium AF is too beautiful of a pipe to pass up and i'll kick myself later if I don't get it now.

Time to give john some money.......lol.

So I know its a double post but i figured i'd put in here what i ordered.......

AF medium solid hookah
Box of CH Nats
5 X250 Nakhla (DA Jar, Cinnamon, Mandarin, Sweet Melon, and Mizo mint)

Total after shipping and HF discount came to like 153 and some change

I've tried mandarin and mint and the fact that the mizo mint freeze's my lungs is amazing. the other 3 will be new flavors to me (had DA but not nak and not from the jar).

Now if my friends come through with another..... idk Kilo even of shisha for what they smoked this summer i'll be set until about my birthday in october or so.

Oh shit. You passed on Tangiers for the AF hookah? Is it too late to change my vote? tongue.gif


No worries my friend..... The first bowl from the AF hookah will still most defiantly be tangiers. Just because I didn't buy anymore doesn't mean I don't have any. Nak is just so cheap..... my friends will be buying the Tangiers. And as far as i can tell there will always be more tangiers. If for some reason AF hookahs got discontinued that would be a sad day. wink.gif

Gasp! Actually, David from Al Fakher was by my lounge today, the third time I met him. He smoked some Tangiers made some faces like he was choking...(joking, joking) and thanked me for the nice words regarding his pipes. He didn't bring a bribe, though. sad.gif So I guess I'll keep giving my opinion for nothing. smile.gif

Tangiers in a brass Syrian. Its like scmeckin' in movie. Its natural and expected in some circles. wink.gif
