So I was going to buy this 31 inch Nour hookah from HC but when I tried to find it today there was no longer a page for it :(. It had the most intense base I've seen for hookahs on sale online. I e-mailed the company to see if they were sold out.

And if they are... Where can I find other types of Syrian hookahs? I have an off-brand egyptian and a KM. I heard that Nour/Nawars is the way to go, but I'm having problems finding models I like.

Keep checking HC for if they list more. They posted up a few more apparently after they initially had sold out, so it may happen again.

In the meantime, here ya go:

Eh... Kinda. One of those is a Nawras, the other isnt. He is labeling shit wrong now. And he was other Nawras without Nawras in the title.

Both. The stem was a brass one, simple but ornate. The base however was CRAZY. Seriously the most intense and intricate piece of glass I've ever seen. Maybe not classy, but super intense.

I think I know what one you're talking about, the blue one with red and green glitter paint? You can always try to pick up a stem separate and try to find the base later. Might be a looong time before that same combo pops back up.

Yes, that was the one. However, the problem is I can't find very many places that carry nour/nawras stems.

I think i was lucky to get the last one. They said that they would get more syrians in a month or so when i asked. Not sure what models though.

Oh you lucky dog... If you happen to get tired of either the stem or the base you should hit me up ;)

I guess I'll just have to wait another month.

John still has the new nour pipes, for cheap too.
the thing people dont like about them though, is the hoseport isnt large enough to fit an egyptian style hose (KM, Temsah) without sanding it down
all the washable style hoses (narbish, nammor, razan) work great
The downstem and the ports themselves, are actually bigger than my Nawras 27" spiral, by around .010" ID for downstem, hose side, and purge side.

Yeah, I saw hookah johns selection. I might end up going with one of those, although they are smaller, and the stems don't have the same cool engravings.

I would post something in the trade section, but it looks like numerous people are trying to find this type of syrian hookah.

That is exactly the kind of thing I am looking for......

I know that alot of off-brand egyptians are crap compared to brands like KM and MZ... I'm guessing that Syrians are the same way?

I've seen some cool looking "syrian" peices, but they aren't nour/nawras. I don't want to get them though if it's for sure going to be a crap product.

Sheet. My bad. I didn't even bother to confirm because he was doing a good job of labeling them! :P

Yeah. You don't see that many Syrians on the vendor sites, but there are so many shitty looking ones on ebay. Who knows? Maybe they smoke ok... but they look cheap.
[/quote]

Yeah don't buy the off brand ones on ebay they look like super crap.
