CO_hookah Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 ...Does anyone know a good place to buy shisha in NYC? I just moved here, and don't want to wait the shipping time from my favorite vendor to ship from California to here if i can avoid it. Specifically, I'm looking for Tangiers :) a search on here and Google didn't yield me anything of worth. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 As far as I know, it's really hard to find hookah tobacco in the state of New York now due to new laws. I can't recall if it's banned or there's just a ridiculous tax hike (like the one Texas passed recently). Either way, your best bet is looking in New Jersey if you've got to buy local... Can't point you to any certain vendor though, as they're banned on here, and are quite frankly idiots. But purchasing from their store I can't imagine how you could possibly have issues. Best of luck man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatalshizot Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm sure if Bloomberg had any control it would be a crime to have more then 50g. Wish you best of luck in that foreign country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CO_hookah Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 Thanks for the help! The search continues... Yeah, the tobacco tax here is freaking insane. Not that I smoke cigarettes, but in Colorado a pack of Marlboro's was $5 and change. Here, they're $12 and change. WTF. Pavo, any chance you can send me a care package? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Sharrp SYBIAN Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) well I have a list of places for Nahkla my fellow NYorker! Hookah-Nuts in Bay Ridge (they also have great coffees and stuff) then The rest of the places are in Astoria Queens (Steinway street i think) They have Nahkla and AF for very cheap, as well as starbuzz and fantasia, for the most part cheaper than anywhere online. But yes Californian's are spoiled with certain shishas! You will not find Tangiers anywhere in NY except for this 1 hookah bar i know in Brooklyn which is run by a Tangiers fanatic also you have to request it and he may charge extra cause its "his personal stash" Hope all this input helps! :-) Good Luck in your search!
