I've been using my trusty little $50 bong for about a year now, and although it's been good to me, I think it's time to upgrade. My budget is about $150, and I'd preferably like it to have an ice catcher. I was looking at Roors and Illadelphs, but does anyone have any other suggestions?
all bongs do the same thing in the end, man. for me 150 dollars is more than 3 times what a bong would cost, but there are also some glassheads on here that will tell you 150 dollars wont get you very much. do NOT listen to them. ®OOR (dont know how to do the backwards R) has quite $100 tubes that are fricking nice, but an ashcatcher would greatly improve the overall awesomeness of any bong in my oh so humble opinion. maybe buy a $50 ashcatcher and a hundred dollar tube? that'd be a nice setup. The only thing I have against the uber bongs is the price. And of course, they can break. I'm guessing the most I'll ever spend on a glass piece/bong is 100 dollars.
For $150 you should be able to get a bong with an ice pinch easily. Glass on glass of course and possibly a diffuser/perc.
if i were you i would try to pull a ~100 dollar tube(ice pinches/GonG) and maybe ~50 dollars in accesories(ashcatcher/diffy).. you could get a sweet setup for that price
