Am I Getting Ripped Off? Mothership Honey Bucket

Discussion in 'Smoking Accessories Q&A' started by DIPSCHMIDT, May 23, 2014.

  1. This kid I know has this blood-red mothership honey bucket with a titanium swing and ofz. He's asking 580, but I'm seeing honey buckets that are worked (haven't seen this color though) on nuggetry going for 350-450... He's saying this one's super rare and the longer he sits on it the more valuable it'll be so is $580 a fair price for this bad boy?

  3. Dude just get a globe and a nail.... It'll come out to like $30 MAX. I would never pay almost $600 on just a bowl. You can buy a nice ass bong and an attachment for that much money but I rarely smoke concentrates so that's just me. 
     
  4. Huge ripoff

  5. No. This is worth the same amount any other honey hit slide is worth.
     
  6. Where are the mother ship colored honey buckets with ofz at for $350? And this is a horrible place to ask if it's worth it because there are not many people in this group who appreciate or understand high end glass.

  8. How long have they been around and what's the retail? These are new to me and not gonna lie, pretty badass.

  9. Biggest rip I've ever heard of. That's just stupid.

And furthermore, Susan, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoked marihuana cigarettes..... REEFERS"

    Mothership's been making them for a while. I'm not sure on retail but most of the time I see them sell on places like nuggetry, it's around $350-400.
     
  11. What is the price you see for colored ones? I always see the clear:sandblasted ones with the cap going for the price you said. But there's no way the colored ones are the same price

  12. Haven't actually seen any colored ones around... but let's be honest here, a rod of red glass is not a $125 markup. Seriously.
     
  13. It's the glass world. You pay for a name that you know will be good quality. And mothership is some of the best in the world. Some people don't see the point in it just like some people don't see the point in a Ferrari over a Nissan Altima. They may both get you from a to b but I want to do it in my Ferrari.

  14. Nah man, I get it. I don't own any high end glass but I try to keep my head in the scene. I still think 500 for this is overkill. MAYBE 450, but it'd have to match a rig beautifully for me to want to pay that much.
     
  15. Hey I agree 100% with the buckets being over prices. Because if I am about to spend $500 I am getting an e nail. E nail> bucket all day not even a question

    You can't really compare it like that. A ferrari is worth more than a nissan altima because of many factors, it has better speed, performance, probably better safety over the altima. When you sell a name brand bowl, why would you sell it as much or even more than a new roor or illadelph bong? What is so special about the bowl besides the name that is worth 600? Ya I get the blower took it's time to make it, but really how long would it have taken him to make a bowl? The bowl doesn't get you any higher, it does what any other bowl would do, which is to get you high. Why would I pay hundreds more for something that a simple $50 bowl can do? It doesn't do anything different than other bowls and to charge over $200 just for a bowl that you use to get high is insane.

    Because it's not a bowl....... Before you start talking shit and saying it is just a bowl learn what a mothership honey bucket is. And start looking up bucket prices for even a cheaper artist.

    How am I talking shit? I'm just saying your comparison doesn't make any sense. The way you put it, your saying that two cars that are the same, expect one just has a name Ferrari? There's so many reasons why a ferrari is more expensive than a regular car, but would you pay for two of the same cars just one switched it name to ferrari? No that's retarded why would you pay more for the same car just cause the name is switched? And how it that not a bowl? There's only like 3 pieces for you to smoke out of, a bong, a bowl, and the stem? That's not a bong or a stem, so if that's not a bowl and you don't dab out of it, what is it? Please tell me why that thing is so special that it is worth hundreds for? It might make my hit smoother but other than that what is so special that I need to spend hundreds on it for? Ya I found ones cheaper online, but this thread is about OP thinking about buying that for $600......really? Even I found ones online for cheaper, so why would he need to spend that much money? There is nothing that makes this bowl so special for someone to spend hundreds of dollars on that a regular dab attachment on a bong can't bring.

    Hell no I wouldn't give him that much money for that..sounds like he's trying to rip his own buddy off lol
     
    Even if they are selling new for 450, buy a new one and save yourself the money. Him being your friend and it being a used piece he should be selling it to you for less..instead it looks like he's trying to make a profit off you.
     
  20. Do you call a nail a bowl? Do you call a dome a bowl? No, so why call the mothership honey bucket a bowl. You smoke flower out of bowls and you most defiantly can't smoke flower out of a honey bucket
