Hi all

where's everyone getting their american glass? I've grown tired of my same chinaglass and feel the need to support something domestic.

I ordered a HVY beaker from thepipeking.com but they got their heads up their asses. 2 weeks no shipping, being told its backordered, then its defective, then a refund LOL

Really would like to find a GonG beaker or bubble bottom, something old school looking without breaking the bank

I sent a PM but I can't see if it went thru, so I will try this way.

Any head shops nearby? I've picked up some nice pieces from local blowers for cheap.

If you're not in the US or a country close by, you can actually find decent pieces off E-Bay. There's a lot of cheap Chinese shit, but every once and a while there'll be something American or European made (German and Italian glass are very good too). You'll probably pay a premium, but you'll have something no one else does. I've managed to score myself an original Hurricane bong there and it's by far the best thing I've ever smoked out of. Good luck my man.

I've bought some nice glassware from Purr Glass in Cali, nice quality that doesn't break the bank.

I was just at one today to pick up some cheap Chinese junk and they had a really wide variety of what they said was locally blown stuff. It was all very nice looking and good quality/thick, some was a bit pricey for what it was, but nothing too crazy.

My favorite nearby shop started selling online after COVID hit. Some prices may be a little higher but still low overall, lots of great local glass. Check out here if you're still looking!

I bought a magnetic metal folding pipe on the NJ Boardwalk years ago and gave it to some that is sensitive to plastic. Great little magnetic folding pipe.

Google and it'll pop up.
