Calcartman Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Okay, so I've mentioned the place before but I need to post here now after what happened today.Until I bought my own hookah I'd been going to a place near me in Blackhawk (average home sale price for 2005 was $1,644,452). I knew they were overpriced, hence buying my own hookah.HOWEVER. My girlfriend really liked the flavor we'd been getting there, so I told her to go on over while I bought us lunch and get some shisha from them. I said just get 250 grams or whatever midsize amount they'll sell us.BIG MISTAKE.So guess how much they charged her for what looks like probably 100g of their "Blackhawk" flavor?$60.I'm going to repeat that.60$ for ~100g.WTF.[url="http://www.ilovehookahbh.com/fmi/xsl/cc/menu.xsl?id=6054"]http://www.ilovehookahbh.com/fmi/xsl/cc/me...enu.xsl?id=6054[/url]I Know its too late to go back, but can someone tell me where I can find Cotton Candy, Bubblegum, Whiteberry, and Chamise (chemise?) flavored shisha.Thats what the owner claimed was the mix for this stuff.GRRR I need to go smoke cause I'm all pissed off now!

Bleeding_Heart1 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 dude id smoke 3 bowls if i paid 60 bucks for a 100g's. Why didnt she call to confirm? edit: after looking at the menu, it looks like they charged her for the tobacco used in the session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Sucks. Some places think chopping other flavors makes it worth a premium price. I think they are all Fumari flavors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 She told me the lady convinced her because instead of paying 25$ for one session, she paid 60 for enough for like 6 sessions.I'll have to order some fumari then, thanks.Is this place a rip or what?

Skimo Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 i say you stand outside with your hookah and boycott the place, if it doesnt work it would make a cool video to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htdsngup Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Hey man, i love in a pretty expensive place too. In GReat FAlls, we r rated the #1 highest income city for the past 3 years. But that aside (i sound kinda like a douche) the hookah around here is pretty legit. Theres a place that does a hookah session for 10 bucks and thats with romman.Totally understandable. And the other uses a 25g head with Al-Fauker. The only place that is a rip off is this wanna be club type thingThey have like loud modern music playing and their hookahs on the table while charing $15 for a session of NAklah. Thats redic. Their hookahs plus a 250g of naklah cant be more than 30 bucks.After 2 rents, thats like straight profit.(Around here we get 250g on nakhla for $5.50) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hookahnoob Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Give me your address. I will poop in a box and send it to you so you can put it with your own poop on the lawn. Lets all send him poop to put on the lawn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 Dude, my mailman would hate me.And sadly they have no lawn to poop on. the lawn you see is Blackhawk Plaza, which is suffice to say an upscale shopping center. The cheapest rent there is 5 thousand dollars a month for a 1200 square foot area. At least, thats what it was when they were purchased by new owners in 1998 when they kicked my dads vet office out. Now we're accross the street.But yes, taking a dump on the lawn not gonna work, they don't even allow cigarette smoking in the plaza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalliwag Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Holy crap, with overhead like they are paying for that place they probably barely broke even selling you their shisha! 5k a month for 1200sf? That is almost $7 per hour 24/7. How big is their space? I don't like the price they charged you for the shisha but their operation costs compared to other places is just as extreme when you think about that. Like I said I don't agree with that price, but I can see their dilemna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofdavid Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Yea, I drive a 1990 Buick Century. I get so many chicks with it. By that, I mean that several grandmas inadvertantly think that my car is their car. Oh, and my car, for some reason, has Oldsmobile rims.Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

wheyfast Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I live in Oakland so I can bring you fresh poop. I like going to BlackC*ck to mess WITH THE PO PO. Have you tried bezerkly? If you go to the end of telegraph dead end at the college. Take a left, and it is right on the corner. Dont know the name but they stock all kinds of Shisha and pipes and parts.

jmexx Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Damn man... that's cold!Here, for Fumari, 100 grams is about 40$CND which I know to be a rip off. The only difference is that it's legal and taxes are paid.... unlike most of the folks sellin Nakhla. Here in Canada, it's a whole different game, though...

Calcartman Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 Wheyfast, that was the first place I went to look for hookahs; that exact store. They wanted 130$ for a midsize acrylic. And xpimpitox yeah the same guy owns both; and he is a dickhead. But hes a friendly dickhead. He acts like hes not, until he hands you a bill. But what can you do.And I didn't realize we had so many bay area people. We need a hookah gathering. Go to golden gate park or the streets of berkeley or something and just set up with our hookahs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpimpitox Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 yea they call him sharky and you said it right a friendly dickhead lol nice guy till he gives you the bill lol. a hookah gathering would be nice on a sunny afternoon bay area represent!!!
