70x7 Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to the hookah community but I was looking around ebay and a couple of the sites that came up on google to buy a hookah. Since I don't really know what's good and what isn't I was wondering if anyone could reccomend some decent places to buy them online. I'm not looking for anything too expensive as I'm a poor college student but don't want any plastic knock off ethier. Also, just as a secondary question I smoked a flavor called sex paloni? at this one hookah bar in nyc, i was wondering if anyone knew where I could find this. Thanks in advance for the help guys.

Dizzixx Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I just bought myself one of those , plus the washable synthetic hose and a carrying bag. It is supposed to get here on tuesday and I am so incredibly excited. O am btw I dont know if they are still out but I ordered a regular ceramic bowl and they were out so I got a free upgrade to large, whether or not I will utilize it or not I dont know, but it is nice of them to throw it in to ship it on time.

SanguineSolitude Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 oh yeah 70x7 DEFINATELY spend the extra 1.50 or whatever it is to upgrade to a synthetic leather washable hose. the other hoses are fine, no problems with them. but the synthetic leather (mya) hoses are the best. if you didnt get this in time its not big deal really. you can always buy one later. i also suggest picking up a couple things of shisha. see the review section for advice on those. i heart egyptian hookahs. theyre functional and great looking. the only problem i can think of with them (and this isnt unique) is that the ball bearing in the purge valve tends to rust and get stuck. the solution is either to find a small glass bearing (i found one and then lost it, that sucked) or use and airsoft pellet. barring that you can just wait till it gets rusty and then roll up a ball of foil and put that in there. its really not a big deal. good luck my friend and let us know how she works when you get it.

SanguineSolitude Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 and dizzix the large bowl is much much better than the standard. in fact thats the one i use most. even when smoking alone. you also should give your thoughts on the hookah when it gets in.

Dizzixx Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 I definatly will and I will be comparing it to my experiances with the mya. And just so everyone knows I dont remember who gave me the tip about the double foil and things like that, but I want to say thank you to whoever it was. It takes a little longer to get the thing started but smokes smoother and longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70x7 Posted November 13, 2006 Author Share Posted November 13, 2006 Thanks again guys for all the support, I didn't know to order the leather hose, but I'll definitely get it with my next order of shisha. I ordered a variety of small amounts of different brands and flavors of shisha so hopefully I can find what I like. From what i read on Social Smoke's site it sounds like my order should go out today or tomorrow, I can't wait I'll definitely let you guys how it turns out when i get it.
