In the polls the Frost & the Obelisk are tied. I guess its done to me. Does anyone have a frost? I'm curious how it looks IRL

for the price of those vases, you could almost buy a Nour from john.
Thats what id do...

Not everyone automatically wants a nour, km, or any other the so called "standard" best hookahs. I love my Myas, and would happily pay there price any day of the week. It's there money and they are asking for an opinion on which of those choices. Giving another option is one thing, but flat out telling them to scrap the idea and get what you think it best is just absurd.

They OP was asking a particular question about a particular set of bases. Kindly do not turn this thread into an advertisement for a vendor. If people can't help with the OP's question, please move on to another Thread. Thanks.

He said "Thats what id do...". He didn't tell him to scrape the idea.

Either way if I were to choose one of those three options I would get obelisk. It looks more sturdy to me. Also the snow flake pattern design looks too busy and not very unique. Thats what id do...

The stem looks like this but in amber [img]http://www.hookahstar.com/images/mya/crystals/deco_emerald.gif[/img]

I actually order the frost last night. I was really torn between the two but the frost is 25 less than the Obelisk. That helped. :) We will see next week if I made the right decision. Thanks everyone for all your feedback. I'll be sure to post what it looks like all together.

The base arrived. It's not bad; I like it. Though now I'm wishing I got it in red instead of amber.
