They didn't have a lot of these, but apparently they sold out in less than 24 hours of sending the email.... Astounding!Nothing like calling up a vendor just to tell them how much their product sucks and ask how in the world they were able to sell out. You treat people nicely and you get what you want to know. If I had some more reward points I thought about grabbing one for a friend that's throwing a Halloween Party, but I just can't justify that price out of pocket.Me, personally, I would never own one, but my bud, would love it, got him into hookah smoking a while back, but for the price just to hard to justify "Here's some Halloween fun" Just grab my Dark Tri-Metal and bring it over with some Pumpkin Spice I guess....wait maybe that's why it sold out... Halloween Party Hookah? Thoughts?Damn good marketing i say. 2 weeks before halloween, get it in about a week, tell their friends, whip it out at the party....Damn good marketing i say.Hats off to H-S.I don't think they really marketed it that way, but they should have... that other one is even more expensive, They might have sold out of both if they had done that. But I was just thinking the party thing in my head when I got the email. Debating if I wanna spend that much for a sort of gag/excuse to smoke at the party gift. But then when it sold out the decision was made for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt spend that much money on something i would probably use once and then give away to a friend or sell to someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanneff Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I wouldn't be too judgemental. I mean, if nothing else it would be cool for a halloween smoke. Would I pay $120 for it? Hell no. But hey, it's not my money, and so long as I don't see anyone making review videos using it then who cares? hahaBesides, you know the saying - don't knock it till you tried it. For all anyone knows that might not be a half bad little pipe haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all anyone knows that might not be a half bad little pipe hahaI am not being judgemental. H-S has to make a profit and picking things and marketing them at certain times to maximize profits is what they are business for. It comes down to "If you want that hookah, and think that's a fair price" It's a win-win situation. But as a consumer If I don't like the price, I go somewhere where I can find it cheaper. I have seen both pipes around before. I don't know if anyone on here has gotten one. It might be a good smoke, but something a bit to creepy for me to smoke any other day than halloween. It doesn't relax me when I look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
