Johnny_D Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Where abouts on this Rock are you? Prices tend to vary Regionally and of course internationally. JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakemonster Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Depends on the shop. If its a head shop or a smoke shop....be prepared to see prices from $120 to $200 If its a Middle Eastern shop, you should be seeing prices of around $70 to $90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofdavid Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 There is a local headshop here that sells Myas for about 300% mark-up. Literally. They are in Clifton and have the regular one hose mya glass in carrying case for around 289 bucks. I even asked if they were crystal and was told no... So... your milage may vary.

web250 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Price for smallish ones here at UDEL are like $100, way overpriced. The tobacco is a decent price, albeit a bad brand, $3/$7 for HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yonatan Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 here: a decent price for a 30 inch hookah in USD would be around $20. honest to god. i got my first hookah (28 inch, egyptian, 1 hoser) at this kind of liquor shop for $12 (but i got the seller to discount for me)... i can't belive you people pay such ridiculous prices for this stuff by the way, the hookah i got was extremely good (still is) smokes like a champ. if you guys are interested i might be able to ship them to you if you send me money he has loads in stock and he wants them to go...

james Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I have a brother in law that manages a head shop in PHX. Their hookahs were right around $300 the last time I was in there. Unreal. I think the make them custom and in-house, but still. I support intranet hookah shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioannisds Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 We have a Mediterranean market here in Sacramento that sells Myas for a little bit above the prices on Myas site, but without paying shipping you break even. They also have a bunch of Egyptians (yashman19 bought one, said that it was very nice) for very reasonable prices (around $30 for the smaller ones, big giant mofo for around $60 or $70, I believe). Tobacco is great too (bought a 250g of Nakhla Chocomint for around $6.50). I think the difference is whether or not the shop is catering to your local Middle Eastern community or not. If it does (like I believe our store out here does) your are much less likely to get raped. It is basically a grocery store with hookah stuff too. If you go to a headshop (like someone mentioned) where it is the latest and greatest trend, you are going to get hosed. There's one just a couple of blocks from my house that charges $5 for a roll of Goldens. FUNK THAT. Welcome back Greek! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
