I'm in NSW Australia and am interested in buying a bong over the net, however am worried that it could be a bad idea, having heard rumors about police tracing the packages back to people's homes and raiding them. Does anyone have a link to the laws regarding bong (water pipe as they'd probably say) possession in NSW? Or is there anyone here who has found themselves in a similar situation?

Thanks in advance for replies

I've ordered from offyatree, bongsnthings, EDIT and Grass city. All have come completely fine. GC ships in 4 - 7 days, EDIT is usually 3 - 5.

Next order will be off Ziggi, splitting a free shipping order with a mate, so hoping that will get in fine. That will kinda be a lot....

Ahhhh, it's great to see a few aussies on GC! :D
You'd be better off buying for a headshop,
just incase, as i have the same superstition as you.

Especially when i ordered seeds,
i was sooooo scared about if i was gonna get caught!

anyways goodluck
peace

Aren't they illegal in QLD? Anyone have experience buying off GC living in QLD?

I'm pretty sure the waterpipes(bongs) themselves are not illegal at all,
the headshops in WA say they're ornamental ;)

Waterpipes for smoking tobacco are legal, there's a lot of issues displaying them. Off ya tree display some, but barely any.

Go into any smoke shop/tobacconist and ask to see their bongs. 99% have a cabinet or a draw behind the counter full of them.

Stay away from MWP or Magic Water pipe if you can. They have some interesting designs, but stupid stem lengths and shotty positions, and terrible TERRIBLE thin glass, as in it breaks if you pull the grommet with your finger too hard.

Try and stick to Agung, they are all labelled on the glass.

Alternatively, and what I reccomend, buy yourself something off EDIT or GC. If you want a good snapping bowl that replicates Aussie cones, get the Molino small or medium cups on GC. They're like $7, and yeah perfect snap holes. Make sure you get a 18 - 14 stem or a reducer for them tho, most bongs from online come with 18.8 bowls with massive holes that need gauzing.

Hope some of that helps!

I live in Brisbane, and i have bought 3 bongs + accessories from Grasscity, all with no troubles. The boxes even say it has been 'custom checked'. So obviously they dont give a fuck. It's been over half a year, and no visit from my local law enforcement. So i think it's fine. They can't legally do shit unless the bong rocks up with resin in it. It's just glass artwork/tobacco water pipe/oil pourer/vase.
