vendetta_revived Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 (edited) I have heard good things about UH, but that seems like an unnecessary mark up. I mean I understand that they knew about these selling like hot cakes, but since Eric said that he will be selling these to retailers at normal prices, $25 for it is just crazy.

UH is good people. They have the only stuff I ever buy and quick shipping turn around. They had a sick golden canary sale a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shalowlow Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I think we should make assumptions on how much their markups are based on the address that they use on their website and a google search. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyote Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 [color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]The bowls that UH advertised as "picos" are #7s.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]They were limited non-production [/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]experimental/trial size [/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]bowls. So you guys that managed to get them in the 6 hours before they sold out have one of the rarest Tangiers bowls. [/size][/font][/color][color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]The different between the #7s and #8s. They are a little wider and a little deeper than the Picos.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=tahoma][size=3]Lets not confuse them with the #8 Pico's that were sent out with our samples directly from Tangiers Tobacco that will out perform the #7s.[/size][/font][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chreees Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Well, I personally think it's pretty cool that those 20 or so people who ordered from UH basically got Mini phunnels. Katie, mind explaining how size #8 performs better than #7? I thought the logic was always, "Bigger the Tangiers phunnel bowl, better the performance." And I will admit, as much as I love my Minis, my Small DOES perform better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric feels that the dimensions on the #8 are better for Tangiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Not that you can't still get a good session from a #7 lol. A #7 will certainly outperform any other non-Tangiers bowl when smoking Tangiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshinx23 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 how is performance measured? My Chinese phunnel does wonderful work too, rarely any difference from the tang bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 quality of flavor, clouds and level of complete vaporization of tobacco in the bowl to start. For example, you can treat your chinese phunnel in a way that allows for thunderclouds and good flavor but the dimensions in chinese phunnel doesn't allow for complete vaporization of the maximum amount of contents in the bowl. The way these are shaped (it we are talking about the most common Deezer brand chinese phunnels) allows the liquefied juices to settle at the bottom of the bowl instead of being vaporized.

Epoch Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Any thoughts on how the Pico phunnel would perform compared to the Alien phunnel (current design)? I'm currently very happy with my Alien, so I wouldn't want to put out money for an expensive new bowl unless it will be a markedly better piece.

Chreees Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Can someone pick up a Pico from Eric's for me? Katie: Thanks for the explanation. No further questions, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
