NeedBetterAlias Posted October 30, 2006 Author Share Posted October 30, 2006 Hi there - please, tell me, where can I get supplies locally ? I've been skulking into Joynt Venture for charcoal but am finding it hard to stomach the prices. Anywhere with a good variety of tobacco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersianPride Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Sorry bro I can give you good news and bad news. There is a place by the name of United Bakery on Adrian street Welshpool. I can't remember the exact street number but its right across the train station and their phone is 9361 9945. They have Al Fahker, Soex and Al Waha but the prices are insulting to ones intelligence. However on the plus side the sell the worlds best charcoal called Zoghal Galeb which is only $2 for 16 disks. Another little piece of good news is that me and the other Aussies on the board are trying to construct a little commune like system where we order stuff off the net collectively, split the crappy shipping, and then mail the stuff to each other. Also talk to the member Benny he has access to $15 dollar al Fakher in Sydney and if your a nice guy he might act as an intermediate and mail it to you. P.S. What is Joynt Venture? Where is it located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PersianPride Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 oh wait is Joint venture(?) that goth hangout on Hay street? Fuck man I wouldn't walk in there even if they were handing out Al Fakher for $1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeedBetterAlias Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 Thanks - will head there soon; Joynt Venture are wanting $15 for 21 pieces...hmmm. I'm an expat working mainly out of Cairo so generally have access to as much as tobacco as I can squeeze into my case (being new to Shisha not sure if it's GOOD tobacco) but need emergency supplies and charcoal, so this would be great. Thanks for the tip about the charcoal too; am learning how important it is to get the 'wela' right. Any shisha cafes in Perth? Also, am I deluding myself thinking shisha isn't as bad as cigarettes? Being a fitness freak non-smoker am wondering if I should be giving this away....would be devastating :cry: I'm a sis by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damo2010 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 [quote name='NeedBetterAlias']Any other shisha addicts in Perth WA out there?[/quote] I recently discovered that a stall in the Freo Markets sells Shisha/Argileh products (he sells mostly Egyptian-related products). A 250g of Nakleh 2-Apples goes for A$20. Not a wide variety but hey beggars can't be choosers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedBetterAlias Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Thanks for that....although having discovered the delights of Al Fakher tobacco going back to Nakleh is going to be hard when I get back to Cairo next week. United Bakeries is worth a visit if you haven't already. Joynt Venture were selling Alalali charcoal for $15 compared to United's $5 - not a bad little mark up. So is there a shisha/hookah cafe in Perth somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the mark up it doesn't surprise me, when your entire customer base is underaged goth teenagers that don't know their ass**** from a hole in the ground you can afford to do that. Also for cafe try 283 William St on the corner of Aberdeen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeedBetterAlias Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Man, that's funny...that's exactly what their customer base looked like. After your recommendation of Zogal Ghaleb, Alahli is way too messy and rough; but it's ok for emergencies I guess. But what would I know? I'm new to all of this... But I have learned that combination of Zogal and Al Fakher is smooth and unbeatable so far...Will try that cafe out next time I'm back in town.
