  1. Girl and I are going to Houston today to celebrate our 2 year anniversary. Gonna eat and go to the mall and do all that fun stuff, but we also wanna hit up some sweet headshops while we're there. Any suggestions on some of the better ones in the downtown area?

    Appreciate it blades :)

    Comments: Very nice headies. Very few roors. Salt, Darby, Merc, and a few other artists, GREAT guys, GREAT prices, as with all the BC's in Texas. They have GREAT prodo stuff, and are right on campus at UT. If you ever come to TX, make it a point to stop at one of their stores. Very open to suggestion I'd say. Ask them to carry an artist and in a short while, wouldn't be suprised to see it there!

    Cadillac Smokeware17977 preston Rd.Dallas, TX(972) 248-2282Comments: They are striving to provide top quality glass at better prices than most shoppes. They do most of the work thereselves so they can afford to sell our own products at great price because they don't have a middleman. it goes from the blowers kiln to here and then to you. They also stock some fucking ill headies as well. They have peices from chaz, banjo, mike luna, glass phish, Lodi of D.L., connor, matt bealle, steve-o, roze nasty, salt, wildrok, drew, cowboy, mike campbell and many more! we also carry other brands and will special order anything you ask for.

    Comments: Decent selection of Roors, mostly all straight tubes, seems like all their ice pinches have been bought out. Feel like they are hot shit because they just started carrying illadelph, never heard of Toro, nonetheless they do carry some nice dry work. Plenty of heady pieces saw some FREEK stuff, salt, cowboy. Some other names I'd never heard of. Still definetly worth checking out, have ID ready!

    Comments: Nice shop; always improving. They have alot to choose from at really good prices. Tons of name brand tubes and nice handpipes. Kind of out of the way of some areas but worth the drive. Glass from lots of different companies and individual blowers. They carry alot from local blowers as well. Employees know alot about products and are very friendly. Also, one of owners is a glassblower and can custom make pieces for no extra charge.

    I live in H-Town as well.
    Would High Times on Gessner & Bellaire have any good smoking stuff?
     
  4. Yeah High Times on Gessner and Bellaire has some nice smoking stuff but I must warn you, the prices around Houston are high, no pun intended. You won't find the nicest stuff there but the prices they show might make you feel that it is. Only place I'd spend my cash would be at BC Smoke Shop in Cypress or the one on Westheimer
     
  5. Where in Cypress is BC Smoke Shop? I've never heard of it. I'm out in Sugar Land trying to find some places to get good bowls and a new bong.
     
  6. I'm just looking for a good bowl. How much would it run at High Times for your average bowl? I go by that place daily but I've never been in.
     
  7. Go with Smoke Dreamz, if you let them know you're on a budget but still want a nice spoon instead of a one hitter, they'll work something out. Probably the nicest people I've ever met in any kind of shop to be honest. And tipping = free lighters/papers
     
  8. Im on the nawf side of town so to me i would go with up n smoke!

    Up N smoke at 8650 North Houston Rosslyn Street, Ste C, Houston, TX 77088.

    THEY HAVE a mad selection of bongs, pipes, scales, jordans, algierz shirts and there
    location is amazing because if you love old school swishahouse tapes or just some good
    h-town gangsta rap theres a cd store next door, and if you need a tight fade theres a barber
    shop next to the cd store! now AINT THAT AMAZING? back on the bongs and stuff i got a
    2 footer for like 50 bucks! its a clear glass one, they have sales on some things and most of those thing are worth your money honestly!

    I highly recommend Bomdiggity off of mason road in katy. Its a little bit outside of houston but worth it. they blow a lot of the glass right there in their fully equipped studio. Pretty legit and great prices.... plus they always have amazing pieces and unique things. literally everytime i go i see something totally new that ive never seen before, and that really impresses me. 10/10



    And i do not recommend BC at all...overpriced. they order from bomdiggity. they say their the best, but go hangout with the guys over in katy and tell me whos trying to just make a buck and who is trying to bring you great glass for a good price
     
  10. I will say hands down the best shop in Houston to get your stuff from is BC Smoke Shop, I've purchased quite a bit from those guys and they're always pretty chill and have a lot of neat pieces.


    I did see something here about High Times on Fry Rd, they do carry "roors" however, they're fakes, their prices are a bit steep and most of the people there haven't a clue about their stuff. I've been in there and have asked questions and most of the time the answer I get is " I don't know ".


    My money goes to BC.
     
  11. Having been a loyal BC customer for many years, I must say that I have found a shop that IMO beats BC on almost everything.  Price, selection, size of store, knowledge/friendliness of staff.
     
    That store is Smoke Alley, on Dacoma street and 290.
     
    I still count the BC as one of the most superior shops I've ever been lucky enough to wander accross, but their customer service is severely lacking, and prices are simply marked up too high. 
     
    Check out Smoke Alley, I'm sure you wont be disappointed.
