dizzbizz Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Bought this KM stem for ten dollars at a local shop today just because it didn't have a purge valve, base, or tray. So stoked.

Chreees Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Wow, ten bucks for a Double Kamanja Wheat?? Dude, that brings a whole new meaning to "totally worth it." That pipe sells for $99 at my local shop... Do you happen to have the spare parts or you got a plan to obtain them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzbizz Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 I have spare parts but apparently the purge valve is a lot wider than all of my hookahs so I have to track one down online or something. I have a tray though so I'll just buy what I need when I make an order this week. I couldn't pass it up for ten dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy Oma Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Purge valve might require a little bit of thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Next time I go by the local shop, I'll check the random parts box and see if I can find a KM purge valve in there for ya. Other than that, maybe hit up the online vendors and see if they can't help you out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Thanks Yeah, I think I'll look around some local shops also, to see if they have anything that'll fit, but I contacted a couple vendors to see if they can sell me one when I make an order. It's just weird to me how much wider the valve is than the regular rectangular KM purge valves are. [quote name='joytron' timestamp='1335925992' post='546382'] I hate you so much DB.

Chreees Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Wait, you mean you can't fit a KM purge valve from another KM on it? Like it must have a special KM purge valve or something? I'm not sure if I'll be able to find one like that... I only ever see the ones like what I have on my OG Tri (click the picture below in my link to see what I mean).

And since getting it I don't understand what people are saying about their build quality going bad. This has much better build quality than the Pharonie or even the old Kafae I have. If it was any better I'd question if they were machine made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang67n Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 uhhh.. sorry daniel.. They guy I was hoping would help out is being rather rude.. He seems to feel that since you didn't buy the pipe through him, he doesn't want to take a cap off of one of the ones he has. I mentioned to him that I've bought 4/5 pipe from him over the years.. so maybe he will change his mind. but as of right now, i'm of no help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
