Buying glass online...
I am wondering for those of you that have bought glass offline, how did you like it? I am looking for a new piece but sometimes when I look at some online I just don't get the same feel for them. Usually when I have headed to the headshop a certain piece will just sort of pop out at me or stand out. Is it the same when buying pipes online for people? Are the glass pieces you get when you buy online usually up to the expectation you had for it when you saw it online?

Anyone have a bad experience with buying glass online?

I've never bought glass online, and probably never will, unless it's like a RooR or something.

Like, you're never 100% sure that what you see in the picture is what you're gonna get. Read some reviews of pipes on this site, a lot are like "yea, it was cool, colors werent quite what they were in the pic though". And you can't really tell the thickness/coolness just by a picture.

I really prefer to go into a local headshop where I can shop for pipes hands-on.

Nah man, glass is definitely straight online, just be sure to do some steady research on people you buy glass from always...
If you wanna go custom, sometimes it's necessary.

Though I honestly do prefer just going to local shops for glass.
