    [FONT=&quot]K blades and bladettes, I went out to Liquid Chrome today and heres my story: (Unwrapping and milk vids at the end!)

    I live in scarborough, which is about a hour and a half drive from Liquid Chrome out in Barrie (best Glass shop IN CANADA!!) . But, I can't Drive! So, after taking the Go Train into toronto, and then catching two Go Busses (like greyhound busses) and 2 and a half hours LATER im at barrie bus depot. I walk like 3 feet and i find myself on the doorstep of liquid chrome. They had only just opened.

    I spend the better part of the next hour on the LC level 2 looking, and looking, browsing, absorbing prices of glass and gaining glass knowledge from the very wise group of guys that work there, THERE WAS SO MUCH TO TAKE IN!!!!

    I saw, SALT, SHELDON BLACK, Gear, SGW, Luke Wilson, Alexk, Toro, Illadelph, Roor (and the xcaliber:D[/FONT][FONT=&quot]), Lux, Puff, Redeye, and Zong! :D:D:D[/FONT][FONT=&quot](but no Syn tho....)

    But the real reason why I went out there was for their Hoss selection! And OMFG it was RETARDED how much Hoss merch they had! Yesterday when I called, they told me that just last week the guy who sells the Hoss pieces to the store came in. They bought 300 new pieces off of him!!! And man, You do NOT know how much glass 300 bongs, bubblers, and a/c's are until you stand in front of a wall to wall glass cabinet (spanning the length of the store) that is HALF FILLED with Hoss glass!

    I truly cannot explain to you how amazing this place was! This was my first time SEEING any kind of high-end glass, and for the first time, I WAS SURROUNDED BY top quality american (and canuck) glass!!

    After I had seen everything, got advice from the guys that worked there, and chosen my bong, and my bowl I went to checkout and I got everything i needed for $185 (bowl only cost me 5 bucks!!!) And to sum up my trip, It was TOTALLY worth the 6 hour total commute there and back!!![/FONT][FONT=&quot]:smoke:
    As for the bong, Well its amazing! It is such a smooth hit! nice and cool, but there is SO MUCH TASTE!! I'll never go back to a beaker bottom again! And it looks stunning! Can't wait to get an add-on perc :D

    Anyways. This Is what I got

  7. That's good stuff man congratz
     
  8. How are the prices there? I was thinking of going to liquid chrome in barrie to get a nice piece.
     
  9. Yeah, That one in the vid is my custom ice pinch :p and I have a etsy made A/C in the mail already :p

    Thanks :D

    Their prices are really good. All the hoss stuff I saw was below anything I saw on the internet, PLUS they dont charge taxes either :p I saved quite a bit going there as opposed to buying online. Theres also SOOO much to choose from! Their worked slides are cheap too, their lighters were overpriced imo tho, but thats about it.

    I HIGHLY reccommend taking a trip out to Liquid Chrome man, its worth it! If you bring 300 cash you'll go home with something you're def. gonna b pleased with!
     
  10. Good morning BUMP :rolleyes:
     
  11. God DAMN that is sick! Love the slide too . . . all-around awesome piece.

    Can I come over and hit it? :D
     
  12. Very beautiful. You've peaked my interest about this smoke shop as well. I looked at google maps and LC is about a 4-5 hour drive from where I live in NY, and my only problem would probably getting over the border hassle free.
     
  13. Oh dood its totally worth it! Just talking with the guys there was worth it. I find sometimes when you go into a headshop they seem nervous to mention "weed", "munchies" and so on cuz its still technically illegal to use the stuff for smoking weed, but these guys just dive right in. I've never felt more comfortable buying a glass piece. And it definatly beats out online shopping by a mile!

    Ya the border MAY be an issue, but technically, its not illegal unless its been used to smoke weed out of...
     
  14. Yeah as long as its clean I shouldn't have any problems, hell I doubt they would even know, I'd just need the identification. I just mean getting to another country isn't always the easiest. :p
     
  15. Theres no good shops in NY? If i ever win the lottery,i'm flying straight to tdot and going to Liquid Chrome. I know Liquid Chrome is supposed to have a online shop sometime in the future. But for now i'm stuck ordering my pieces off the nextlevelinc cash on delivery.
     
  16. I live about 30 minutes from Rochester, and afaik we have Hookah lounge, Ghost Dogs, and E-labs. I've been to e-labs, they have high price tags. Ghost dog is a bit better, but its still overpriced glass. And I haven't been to Hookah lounge, but I don't imagine they'll have more then hookahs and a couple cheap bongs/bowls. My next bong I'm looking to make a really nice piece, and my lhs just don't offer that. Sure I could head out to the res, and I'm sure Buffalo has a couple hs that offer nice pieces. But all said and done, I could make a day trip on a day I don't work to a really nice glass shop and could get really great customer service.

  17. Yeah liquid chrome is the best shop we have in canada and you could probably even get 2 cents off our dollar :D
     

  18. my friends in the states went to canada and got a bong while there and they where able to bring it back no problem, that was two years ago though, things may of changed
     
  19. Ya man, I've been waiting for like 4 months for their online shop to finally be finished, at this point I doubt that they'll have it up for a long while. Nextlevelinc is good for HOSS stuff, so is useyourlungs. You should try calling Liquid Chrome, cuz i know for sure that if you're in canada, they will ship glass to you, providing its in stock.

    You should do a price check next time your there for toro's or w/e high end they have there. One question though is it cheaper than Alt?

    Also Just took a toke and got my dome diffuser to stack pretty good,you can see it alright with the cam
