Title: Counterfeit Bongs? Roor, Sheldon Black, etc?
Post by: aciddeath on July 07, 2012, 08:11 pm
Can any of the SR importers get counterfeit bongs?
At the right price I imagine there would be a big demand... considering how much cannabis products are sold here

What the hell is a counterfeit bong? Who counterfeits bongs? Bongs can be bought at gas stations around here.

Roor glass/tech, sheldton black are brand names amongst many others of 'scientific glass' bongs
they are 'luxury item' glass on glass joint bongs that cater to refined (non plastic) taste in smoking piece
many come with ice catches, fancy worked nubs / mouth pieces / graphics, perculators / fancy down stems, and all sorts of bent tube straight tube beaker bottom infinite customizations

a lot of the times when people buy these bongs in head shops they're just buying knock offs from asia
..thing is some of the asian knock offs are REALLY good copies and only the most discerning bong collector would be able to tell the difference

This is a really good idea actually. I kno roors are retardedly expensive, and it's not really something like a rolex where there's mainstream ways to tell the difference. It's just teenagers and college stoners buying these things (for the most part), doubt they could kno how to tell the difference even if there were certain ways to, especially if the Asian ones are fairly well made.

that's a big negative on your last part
there's absolutely no way a bowl full of mexican road side weed is the same as smoking BHO off a nail in a bong
but I know exactly what you're sayin here

No, smoking Mexican dirt weed and smoking BHO off a titanium nail in an oil rig are not the same thing. I'm referring to a bong.

Where I live there's hella fucking headshops.

A few sell really expensive, really nice, name brand bongs.

A few other head shops sell nice glass on glass bongs, but don't have a 'brand name' so their about 80$+ cheaper. After going through so much glass since highschool, I don't see the purpose in throwing in extra money on a bong just for the brand. I know it's not JUST for the brand, it is a little bit better quality, but my buddies expensive Sheldon Black doesn't hit that much better than my no-name bong.

And mine cost 100$ less.
