Nerdy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Anybody seen this? or now if this is a true syrian? Some things lead me to believe it is other things make it seem like a knock off. The design looks the part, but the nose port looks odd to me. also the RARE part of the post make it look like a scam. http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-36-Golden-Anaconda-Syrian-Hookah-Shisha-Real-Syrian-hookah-RARE-Narguile-/150958894870?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2325d9ef16 If this needs to be moved, please move as necessary.

Chreees Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 It's actually DoctorHookah.com's eBay listing. I gathered this from the item location (they're located in Israel), and the product image (same picture as their site). EDIT: Nice hookah, btw... price is good as well considering the free shipping and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdy Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 [quote name='joytron' timestamp='1354767854' post='564024'] doctorhookah.com has them in stock. [/quote] Hmm that seems to be the exact same as the eBay post. I mean the eBay post pics are the same and offer the same pipes. I was trying to figure out it's an actual Syrian. Since I can't seem to find a Camilla anywhere :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Someone buy me this one: [url="http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Antique-Hookah-38-Syrian-Premium-Large-Hookah-Shisha-Authentic-Hookah-hoka-/150957920259?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2325cb1003"]http://www.ebay.com/...=item2325cb1003[/url] They LOOK Syrian... But I have never seen these models before, so I cannot say for certain. As for the Camilla model, I would snag the Al Nawras one on 5Star before it's too late, if it's what you really, really want: [url="http://5starhookah.com/Nawras-Syrian-SYNAW.htm"]http://5starhookah.c...yrian-SYNAW.htm[/url] Once they're gone, they're gone.

[/quote] I know the spear we talked about it. God knows I want it. I think I need to sell my nammor Cleo before I get it. I mentioned it to the wifey that I'm treating myself to a pipe because I got the job but 200$ is a bitch to cough up. Ill have to do some major sweet talking to get that nawras. Wish me luck.

Chreees Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Yeah man, good luck. You really deserve it for getting that promotion. And it will be a pipe that you will truly cherish due to how bad you want it and how rare they are. Don't settle for less unless you absolutely have to.

Travis Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Holy crap! Are those really going for $200 now? I've got a cross hatch and a swirl, both old stock. I didnt realize that I was sitting on a small gold mine haha. And the original pipe in this thread has a similar styling to that of the old Al Fakher brand pipes. I believe Nawras are the ones that were producing them, they were just being rebranded with the Al Fakher name. It doesnt look exactly like the old AF pipes, but it does share a lot of similarities. Good looking pipe in my opinion. Wouldnt hesitate to pick one up if I was in the market for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorHookah Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hey The Golden anaconda is 100% Syrian hookah made by Nawras, look good and see it's their style All models we got from Nawras are brand new and I think they made it this year so I'm not surprised at all to see we're the only Online store with this models. Regarding the Antique design unfortunately we are not the only one who sell it The ebay account is someone we're working with (corporate). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorHookah Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 unfortunately you are absolutely right. because of the sad situation in Syria, It's not so easy to put our hands on Syrian hookahs any more.

Hookah-burgar Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Here is a review of the Golden Anaconda Syrian hookah I bought from Doctorhookah.com (actually through eBay): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-BTO6qSAsQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ih303 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Please correct me here, but I thought Syrian hookahs were mostly knock-offs. I know there are some legit Syrians out there, but it was my understanding that in general, the quality is not all that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookah-burgar Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I would say that there are very good Syrian hookahs, good Syrian hookahs, medium quality Syrian hookahs, lower quality Syrian hookahs and mixes of Chinese and Syrian hookahs, as far as I know. So there is a broad range of hookahs coming out of Syria. Mark that when we consider a good quality one we look at materials used, and then it is mostly brass, even for the downstem, and quality of finishings. Posibly the best hookahs (if one is not interested in modern stuff made in China or elsewhere, which sometimes can be very well finished and with very good mterials, albeit always with common chambers) come from Syria. This hookah I present would be a mi-range one, due to material used, which is mostly stainless steel, with a galvanised downstem (same as on most KM and other hookahs) with some brass for tubes leading to hose port and purge valve or for the purge valve and hose port proper, and to finishings, which being good are less good than on a solid brass, or heavier brass NAWRAS or similar hookah. The pipe is decent, if not the very best. I saw such pipes used in Arab cafés in Israel. It works just fine and purges well. Only concern is wether the gold colour coating will stand the test of time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Long time no see, Jose! Awesome review man. I always have enjoyed your vids. You're very through and detailed. IH- There's good and bad when it comes to Syrians. You kinda have to know what to look for. One thing is for certain, though... Since the war there, it has become hard to obtain legit good models. That's why I always recommend the older, rarer models that pop up occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
