Chreees Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 I think I remember Kasbah selling those for around $100, maybe a bit more? They were pretty cool. Interesting design. Will yours have the tray that sits within the marble tray? I remember Mark telling me you couldn't use the marble tray to ash coals in.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Not sure, as I only have a single crappy picture from Craigslist to base it off of. Comes with a Syrian dish base and a nice wooden hose for $80, so I might try to talk down the price a bit when I go to pick it up, although that might be a dick move since he is already holding the pipe for me. I figured they tray is very small, I will slide a large Turkish tray over it. But then again, I won't be using it much at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoozle Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I like the idea of the big marble tray. I would use it as a rest for a big serving platter with a hole drilled in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Sharrp SYBIAN Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I found a lot of hookahs on ebay however the only 1 i like appears to be significantly overused and has oxidation on the downstem. What do you guys think these are worth? You guys are welcome to buy it all as well because im not in the running for this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-ANTIQUE-COLBALT-GLASS-BRASS-SILVER-HOOKAH-EGYPT-PERSIAN-/151243914171?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2336d6fbbb#ht_607wt_1105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Sharrp SYBIAN Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I like the one that has the wrapping around the stem. Yes that is the Syrian pipe i pointed out same 1 i like the down-stem seems to be oxidizing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wek-sos Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I like the one that has the wrapping around the stem. Yes that is the Syrian pipe i pointed out same 1 i like the down-stem seems to be oxidizing though. It just looks like hard water buildup. But I would be worried about pitting and corrosion underneath And when you look at the 6th picture, the top section of the stem looks to be severely bent. The Egyptian with the red purge cap has a cracked hose port, which you can only see in that picture. The crack is out of view in all of the other pictures. That bit and all of the foil on the bowl ports? Seems like they are trying to hide some major flaws. After some thought, I do not think I will be buying the marble Syrian. But since I am still going to be in the seller's area, if anyone is interested I will purchase it and sell it to you for what I paid + shipping, so total would be about $95 unless I can negotiate the price down.

A Sharrp SYBIAN Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 It's not bad looking. Not exactly my style but deff looks good someone should pick it up. I don't see it as a practical piece but it's deff nice to look at! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addison Roberts Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I liked those too sybian price of the whole lot would be nice. You and I might be competitors haha Edited March 3, 2014 by Addison Roberts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just showed everyone those. lol I'm not buying them because some of them have cracks in the purge vals, ports and even the down stem. Also the syrian in that picture seems to be corroding. Wek-Sos pointed that out for me. out of that lot you may get 2 working hookahs. Either way it is a tough call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addison Roberts Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I think they have true use to them and would be good display pieces. Depending on the price of corse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a fan of white pipes either so i can't argue with you their. However a pipe like that has a lot of trade value. You buy it for yourself and keep it as trade bait in case you don't like it. However I have seen those marble syrians on ebay a few years ago. Someone on another forum told me that those are lighter than they look and may indeed have stainless steel under that marble. Worst case scenario, if that person is nearby you can check that pipe out if you end up buying it you can always keep it as a trade chip or just leave it if you or no 1 you know want it. Personally i also am not feeling that pipe. But i know girls who would! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, downstem looks fine, that is what all copper down stems look like if you don't keep them dry. (of course that is assuming it is copper like most syrians) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsytheowl Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'm probably going to list this hookah but am interested in what you guys think it is worth now. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'd say $200 shipped, that vase is a 10 inch nizbor which are very rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wek-sos Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sell the stem on for $80 shipped, start an eBay auction for the base at $120 with shipping. People go nuts for Syrians and Nizbors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsytheowl Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Awesome, thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Not a bad suggestion at all wek BUT, 120 shipped for that vase is steep. But 100 for each sounds fair to me. What I would do is keep them together, some are nuts for bohemians and some are nuts for nawras pipes, heck some are nuts for both, so keep them together that way you have a wider customer base begging to buy :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
