Hi guys,

Limited selection of glass where I'm from, and ordering online is also not an option. This is the grand total of 4 glass pipes I found in the one shop I have found that sells them.
I'm almost definitely gonna buy one of them, but which one?
What do you think of these pipes? Which one would you pick as your favourite?

45 dollars is way too much for a pipe like that, those are worth 20-25. for 45 you should be able to get a nice big thick piece.
If I had to pick id say the one with the best hole at the bottom of the bowl to avoid it pulling through, also look at the carb hole size.

That's not USD45. They are pricey, but not 45 US pricey. More like 30 US. As I say, hard to come by.

Cheers fr3d, i'm thinking one of the top two.

$30 is too much for one of those. I have had about 5 of those exact china bowls in my lifetime and wouldn't consider paying $10 for one. Most of them I got for free though, which much larger purchases. I'd say if there is absolutely NO chance to get any other glass then buy one I guess. I'd quicker make something though, if I was in your position.

Thanks for the feedback guys, maybe I'll pass. Sucks though, coz imports are strict, so my options are minimal

If you get any more viable options, let us know and i'll be sure to give you my opinion! :-D
Honestly if you can't find anything else, and can't make anything decent, i'd say just buy it. But personally, i'd rather just smoke a joint than a bowl. Bowls tend to lead to a nice helping of scooby snacks and left feeling sort of high in experiences. But I'm used to using bongs. If you can find any bongs or can make your own, i'd say go that route. Definitely a bit more expensive but a nice bong is likely to be the best purchase you will ever make that is ganja related in my opinion. bongsmilie:mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Cheers for the feedback Systehm!
My go to is a cheap but effective beer bottle bong - nothing pretty but does the job. Always keeping an eye out, but yea, funds are limited. I'm after something for on the go, mainly for my tramping/hunting trips. Joints are cool, plus I have other pipes, but I've always wanted some glass to be proud of. So I think I'll wait it out until I stumble across something better.

No problem man, just trying to help out a fellow stoner!
If you're after something on the go, I'd say do your best to find a bubbler! Seems like exactly what you need! Perfect for throwing in your pockets/backpack on trips, glass of course, and hits way better than a bowl or joint! Another option would be to see if you can find a glass downstem and slide, and put them in a thick bottle of some sort. I did that with a Gatorade bottle for a long time before I finally saved up enough to buy a nice piece. Plastic is said to be harmful to smoke out of, but at least using some glass is better than a pen and some metal nut you found in your toolbox haha. Honestly I love the high end glass and all that, but you can't knock a guy for doing what he has to! We're all just trying to get high anyway, right? :weed:
Unfortunately I don't know what type of glass is in New Zealand, but it doesn't sound like much. I do hope you can find something to service your needs, i'm sure something nice will find its way to you eventually!
