this for sure look different then all the illys i have seen, and thats a lot, cant say its fake though
Their straight tubes are pretty solid, maybe a little pricey for what they are, but still solid. They're high end stuff is just downright sick though. In regards to OP's post, The mouthpiece and joint look absolutely nothing like anything illadelph would make. I didn't know fake illy's existed, but this one looks pretty shady. Regardless, $80 is a good deal for that tube.
Fake illis are real. I have seen them. They aren't as common as fake roor but still. Oh and I own a illy and just by comparing the way yours looks compared to mine I think it looks fake.
For real there deff are fakes out there.. supply & demand. if sombody can make money off it, they will make it happen... but I dont believe this is a fake, but thats my take on it. it could be though, but for the price it was bought at, fuck it ya gotta nice bong
People think it's fake because they're just bitter about how they have a handpipe and probably some acrylic shit. I think its fake because illadelph doesn't blow such simple pieces. they usually have a perc or too, or at least a splash dome.
Sorry but you're wrong. A lot of illadelph is the simple shit, except for their coil condensers and a few others.
dnt listen that shits legit nice pic up for 80 especially if it came with a illadelph grinder all the reals one always coem with a single chamber illadelph grinder
Yep, got me, i think its fake because im furious about only having a plastic bong. I also thought it was fake because its rare for illadelph to do a strait beaker bong...
Early Illadelph looks nothing like modern Illadelph. They have a "new" line-up each year and there are significant changes throughout the years. Could be old, could be new, could be fake. Either way, decent piece for the price because Illadelph IS NOT WORTH WHAT THEY CHARGE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Smoke weed everyday.
It couldnt be more then 2+ years, it has the new illadelph crest. They dont have "significant" changes often at all. Where do you get you info?
this is just wrong...plain and simple, illy makes WAY more basic tubes then perc'd and I have NEVER seen an illy wit just a splashguard, or really any straight tube for the matter i think. ^^^hahaha, this tube is deff real, your logic is nuts. I would bet you have an illy that has no crest and the older, more common mouthpiece. This is imply the new stly mouth the put on many of their tubes.
Really? have you been to an Illadelph gallery in the past two years? Since they've introduced the crest on all pieces, they've also stepped up the intricacy of the pieces. The newer down stem diffusers are much more elaborate, and they DO NOT make pieces without them.
What are you talking about? Illy makes basic tubes still and way more then their perc'd tubes. Shoe me a pic of the "new intricate diffy" im pretty sure their diffys are still just slitted and i would love to see a pic of an illy with a downstem and a splashguard only...they do not exist ot my knowledge. For you to say they DO NOT make them, it should be easy to find the pix to back it uo...educated me please if im wrong, but i am pretty sure i am right here
That's a hard one. It looks kind of sketchy by the looks of the logo, but it may be an older piece. The beaker bottoms they currently make have a slightly different shape, and you don't really see a clear downstem by default on a beaker bottom. They do however have clear downstems for purchase. I think your best bet would be asking illadelph, i'm sure they can verify their own work
I'm not trying to argue on a forum with some random dude. But do me a favor, take a look at the blue labels since they introduced the crest and tell me if ANY of them resemble the beaker size, and sharpness on the one displayed.
Your not gonna argue because your wrong. Most or All the illy labels are interchangeable and the label des not speak to the tube, design or thickness...there may be an exception or 2 but I don't think so. And still, where are the pics of these new tubes thAt illy makes...because honestly, I just think u were posting without any basis or real knowledge on the topic..I could be wrong but I really don't think I am...one picture would change my opinion but I am pretty damn sure you won't find a down stem illy with a splashguard or anything like that, because they don't exist. ILLYS MAIN BUSINESS IS STILL BASIC STRAIGHT AND BEAKER TUBES!!!! PLEASE THOU, show me a pic and prove me wrong/educate me.
