    Looking to make my first purchase on my own, I have a toro macro that was gifted to me but I was looking to get something a little bit bigger, I was thinking of buying a Micro 7 to 13 or a hex-hex but to be honest my knowledge is fairly limited so I was wondering if someone could point me in a good direction before I go out and spend $700 on a new piece.
     
    Another question also, Is it worth it going out and spending the money on a new one or is buying a used one from somewhere like BM pretty much the same given it's a drastic price decrease.. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you!
     
    edit: looking to stay ~$700 as my limit also, I have no experience with any brand besides Toro basically so if anyone could list some other good ones it would be helpful, I've had a good experience with the SG Pillar Perc but I haven't as good of things about other pieces made by SG, would you guys also recommend looking at SG? If so which ones? Don't have the cash to spend on a pillar perc though.

     
  2. Mobius glass works. Check their matrix percs out

  3. you set on SG? for $700 you can get stem8 on alt, not including tax+shipping. Though with $700 there's tons of options so take your time.
     
  4. I'm actually leaning more towards a Toro, atm was probably thinking about trying to find a 7 to 13 shrub. I won't be making the purchase til christmas time probably I just really want to do my due diligence before I do.
     
  5. Stem8s rarely ever pop up, but if you are quick enough to grab one, I'd go that route. 7/13s are a lot easier to find and can be considerably cheaper. I have a list of like 20 online Toro shops if you need help in that regard. Either way, it's a nice compromise to have to make.
     
  6. Would you mind throwing me a few? Only ones I know of are ALT and HPG, I can't decide whether I should go the new or used route. On one side it would be nice to be the first owner but on the other side I could get two for the price of one if I get good deals on used ones...
     
  7. Honestly, if you are going Toro and are not looking for anything special. Just go used, it will always be considerably cheaper if you buy used Toro. Then you got money left over for some a new bowl or what have you.
     
  8. Toro's are nice but are they really
    worth it for what they are...?

    you could get a stereo matrix and over an ounce for $700

    not to mention individual artist's work for $700... you have a lot of options, expand your glass collection!

    I know I'm just sort of hesitant seeing as Toro's is almost all I ever smoked out of since that's what my friends were big into. I was also thinking about getting a SGW waffle perc just because it'd be cheaper and I've heard good things about it, I was also thinking about a stem8 but I don't want something that tall.
     
  10. Good god if you can afford 700 bucks for a bong then I want to marry you.
