pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I was at home this weekend, and my mom gave me $20. Today after having lunch with my grandparents, I was given a whopping $50. I'm not sure why because this sort of cash doesn't come my way too often. But its nice. I have a lot of money saved from working over the summer so Christmas gifts and gas money aren't anything I'm worried about. And being somewhat low in the tobacco dept. also only having a not so wonderful clay bowl (just seems difficult. I mean.. websites sell seconds). what do people think I should get? I've considered the QT bandwagon. Just because. I mean... look at them They're so nice to look at. probably need some good charcoals. a better bowl (inverted funnel?) Annnnnd tobacco. Thoughts?

ASUSEAN1 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 funnel bowl is a neccessary. How much you looking at spending on the hookah itself? For $89 bucks you can get a nice 22 or 23 inch mya tht hits a lot better than the qt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 i already own a decent sized hookah. Its almost 28" I think. not a mya though. Just one off of hookah-shisha. But i'm looking to place an order that won't break $70 what, in the opinion of the hookahforum republic, would be the best purchase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caramellanne Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 MYA ACRYLIC...Look at my recent thread... order from hookah kings, 20% forum discount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASUSEAN1 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 yea the acrylics are sturdy and hit amazing. my friend uses them at his hookah bar. nice hookah and and you can get them from 20-29 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksblazer Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 QT's are tough to beat for the price. That should leave you enough to get some shisha, coals and a funnel bowl as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 see.. therein lies a struggle. The acrylics are sturdy QT's are cost-effective. and the lack of a case is no issue with the QT. its almost small enough where I could fabricate one. But I guess now the issue is Which is better? the QT or the acrylic and still.. I'll need tobacco. brands/flavor recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Get a small phunnel, a medium phunnel, some tobacco and a QT from MN Or hell, just one phunnel, QT, and more tobacco! EDIT: I like the QT alot more than I liked the acryllic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 ohhhh jeez now its a store battle 20% off (good deal but haven't heard much about the dealings with them) or word of mouth satisfaction (people seem to be very happy with mn) I'm kinda leaning towards an MN QT (Amber) medium phunnel bowl and some Tangiers but the website is a little funky. like.. not all of the links work. I'll have to talk to mn I'd order from hookahkings, but shipping takes 5 days. i'm really impatient, and i already have a blue hookah. the amber would be niceee ugh, its just that i'll be lacking tobacco. def. gotta talk to mn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Yeah, the website is kinda ganky right now, but talking to scott does work nicely. I've bugged him in the past about my orders relentlessly Not trying to make this a store battle, just speaking from experience as to a package under $70. A small and medium phunnel, a lock on windcover bowl, 250g havana, and a QT cost me $80.55 I believe... and you only need one of the 3 bowls I got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worr lord Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 You definitely need a phunnel , and I like MYA Acrylics more, strictly for their size (up to almost 30") And yes, MN is the man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 250g of havanna.... flavor? and was it worthwhile? 8) and that all sounds like a really gooood deal. mmm good deal. Drink it in. Always goes down smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvansLight Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Yea the new site is still sitting waiting for a payment gateway, having problems getting one XD But just talk to Scott directly, i dont speak just cause im doing there site, i say it cause he genuienly is a damn good business man, and knows how to hook up someone who orders from him. Hes getting all my buisness forever for a reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I got Bahraini Apple. Heck ya it's a good deal... Havana is a good smoke, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yonatan Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 i suggest you get a small phunnel, the medium and large ones are just huge... QT is a really great hookah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 If you have a hookah you enjoy, spend all 70 bucks on the shisha, bowls, and coal. You'll enjoy those more than the novelty of a new hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbomberto Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Get AF cherry (IT ROCKS), a Medium Phunnel, and a QT from MN, first you look at Cheap shipping. Also the cherry will rock your socks off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambookamax Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hope you get the humor in this... "You Mom, and Grandparents would be so proud of you spending their money on tobacco..." LOL!!! Get the Phunnel bowl, I am reading a lot of good things about it! Gonna buy one myself! Great thread though, I am definitely a budget shopper, looks like ya got a lot of good opinions on here...let us know what ya get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pboyle Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 Haha yeah. The thought of spending somewhat gifted money from my relatives on tobacco did cross my mind. For like.... two seconds. But I figured that my current financial security, and the fact that I was just handed the money. Had I made a $70 purchase before getting these monies, i'd be out $70. But now it'll be like I never had it to begin with. But I'll also have a QT haha. And I thought about the "novelty" of a new hookah. But the one I have is decently sized and has two hoses. Its good for when my friends and I wanna just chill. But for me to do it on my own, its a decent setup. The QT would just mean convenience.

EvansLight Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Yea that is the same reason i purchased my QT. If your really wanting one just go for it XD impulse buys are like getting laid while drunk. Sometimes you pick good, sometimes you sober up next to the creature from the black lagoon XD And as for other things, you have to get a funnel bowl, youll know why once you try it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Gimme a 'T' Gimme an 'A' Gimme an 'N' Gimme a 'G' Gimme an 'I' ... you get the point. You know, you could save that money. Why waste it on growing a cancerous tumor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just yesterday I heard melanoma making of my lung tumor, so I smoked some strawberry, raspberry, and banana. gotta make sure he gets his vitamins!
