Chreees Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I think HookahCompany and SouthSmoke are good sites as well. Also, now that twoapplesplease is working for HookahSet, it looks very promising. I've ordered from HJ, H-S, HC, and SS and they've all been good to me.

Piece of worthless chinese made knockoff shit. I don't know if I trust them when they sell such a crappy pipe to their customers.Business people who want to make money sell what their customers are asking to buy. A lot of people like those stupid little pipes. Businesses exist to sell and make money. If a couple thousand people wanted a purple stemmed chinese knock-off with a pink polka dot base, then if I wanted to make money I'd be selling them. Vendors in general go up and down depending on their staff, inventory, ability to communicate, time frame and any other committments they may have outside the business. It's part of the natural cycle of life and business. For someone to have a tantrum saying "listen up" assuming it's never going to change is ridiculous. And if you don't want to read a thread don't click on it. Being part of a community means putting up with others and their questions, ideas, input. Not a whole lot different than putting up with your family at Christmas. If you don't want to be there and listen to them, stay home by yourself.'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indian_villager Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Don't knock HC They are a great company, dial this forum back two years before Hookah John was even around and they were the most recommended vendor. They have done great by me.FYIhttp://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-1099-black-...kin-hookah.htmlNot everyone will do this stuff on our level.

NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 these are the vendors i love in no particular order, they have all done me very well in the past and all 3 contribute into make my hookah sessions very enjoyable and i trust all 3 vendors with my 3 digit orders..and would have no problem ordering from anyone of them over $1000 worth of items..btw, just cause a vendor sells a item you think is crap or is not the best premium quality does not make them mistrustful, if you think it does you have alot to learn about running a business..http://www.hookahjohn.com/main.sc;jsession...26.qscstrfrnt02http://www.hookah-shisha.com/http://www.hookahcompany.com/default.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you don't trust any online hookah vendor then, huh? Believe it or not there is a huge demand for the small offbrand Chinese hookahs...

Chreees Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yeah, I order mostly from HJ and H-S, because they have good prices, fast shipping, and excellent customer service. John is an excellent businessman and will CALL you if there's any questions about your order. You just can't get that kind of service anywhere else. It hits home with people and makes them return. Hookah-Shisha is also good, but depersonalized because you don't have a guy like John calling you if there's a problem. John's got the quickest shipping. Really I just look for the lowest price. It also depends on what I need. Like I needed a QT, Nak, Cocos, and a small Tangiers phunnel. Only HJ had all those items, so I ordered there. Different things can be found at one vendor, whereas the other vendor doesn't have it. For example, HJ has Tangiers phunnels, whereas H-S doesn't. Really I could go on and on forever about these two vendors... HookahCompany- I've only ever ordered from there once. It was a KM Trimetal for my friend who gave me the money since he didn't have a credit card. Everything was fine except the hookah was extremely dirty inside and out. Took him forever to clean all the black gunk out of the stem. I will try them again, despite this. They have good prices.I'm always open to try new vendors if they have the lowest price and have what I need. Think HookahSet might be getting my next order, whenever that may be...

JDHarding Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 No, no, no, no.. I bought this Pumpkin a year or so ago. Hookah Company doesn't even carry it anymore. It was a clearance item. It was like the Pumpkin they have now, but even crappier. The inside of the base was spray painted on the inside. It smelt horrible. The metal was the cheapest aluminum on the planet. I got it for about $15.Anyway, I did mention to list more sites if they don't suck. I didn't say all other sites sucked. But a lot of the time people come on here saying they bought a pipe from such and such and it's a garbage pipe.But then again a lot of these sites sell garbage pipes, so.. *shrug*Anyway, I was mostly joking about all the posts asking where to get stuff, but you gotta admit.. there's a lot of posts of people asking where the best site to get this or that is. I don't know if we do already, but we should have a list of good sites and keep it updated regularly based on customer experiences with them. Once a site starts to slip and suck, we put it on the "Iffy" or even the "Sucky" Sites list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I don't think the system you proposed would be a good one because who would be the one to say whether a site's good or bad or in the middle? Different people on here have different experiences with vendors and therefore have different ones they like. So one person may really like a vendor while another person does not. That's why we have the vendor reviews for everyone in this community to voice their own opinions on the vendors, not have a stickied thread that says whether a vendor is good/iffy/bad.
