new head shop in the bay area (Cali) (The Vault) (UPDATED PIX!!!)

There is a new head shop that has some of the best stuff ive seen in a while. i always used to go to berkeley to pick up my glass but i doubt ill be going over there for that ever again.

This new head shop is called The Vault and it is located in Walnut Creek, CA in the east bay area.

they sell everything from $10 hand pipes (thickest $10 pipes ive ever seen) to a very special custom Illadelph Coil. they have two display cases of tubes only and they have everything from local blown glass to RooR, HVY, PHX, and my personal favorites: Zob and Wicked Sands. they have the best prices i have pretty much ever seen and the owner is one of the coolest head shop owners ive met. he encoureged me to buy a cheaper piece than the one i was going to get and im glad he did. Its the most friendly place to along the lines of head shops. Big Al's in berkely is cramped and The vault is at least four times the size of Al's so theres no feelings of buyers anxiety.

i picked up a bowl blown by a man named matt arroyo (SP) and i honestly have to say hes the next SALT. Arroyo is into the creature theme like SALT and his pieces look almost as good, but for less than half the price. i picked up a heady bowl that i thought was going to cost me 60 bucks (which would have been fair i might add) and he rang me up for $30. greatest deal of my life.

they also sell vapes. they have iolites, Vapor Genies, Vaporites (Box vape, i picked one up yesterday and i love it), and volcanos plus a couple others. They will be getting more in no time though.

i know i sound like i work there but i actually dont, well not yet. lol. i sold some glass while the owner was dealing with other people and he offered me a job because i got somebody who came to buy a single straight tube to buy a ZOB circulator bub and a ZOB mini 8 arm straight tube with splashguard.

as of now im just an overly enthusiastic customer who would like to see his favorite neighborhood shop get more business.

so everybody in the East Bay, or the entire Bay Area for that matter, should come check out The Vault in Walnut Creek. its the most friendly and relaxing place to buy your glass IMHO

PS: You can ask questions here, i personally know the owner so if you have inventory questions or anything just lemme know and ill try to answer your questions as best as i can

 

i actually dont work there yet. the store just opened and the owner doesnt have the money to hire anybody yet but im first on his list he told me. i might as well work there with the amount of time i spend in that damn store... or at least pay rent... lol. i like being around all the shiny glass in that store. it just makes me feel like a child again for some reason. the owner is trying to make the store very personal and hes trying to get to know every customer that comes in so its no suprize to me that i got into this, other than the fact i didnt know that the amount of shit i know about glass is actually way higher than almost anyone in this area. he told me not another person has come into the store who actually knows what they are talking about like i do.

 

i definatly will tonight or tomorrow. i let my buddy borrow my mini hvy for the night so idk if ima have it tonight or not. ill try my best tho. lol

 

ok lets get this one straight, im a patron and im just trying to help out a local store. im in there so much the owner lieterally offered me a job. i was planning on doing this anyways because this is the only place around that has wicked sands, real RooR's, Zob's, and a retarded long list of things on this side of the bay. i thought people might like to know about a new headshop. and notice i didnt even put any tags. i just want people in the bay to know theres a new headshop they can come check out if they feel like it. its your choice to read this. and ive been lurking grasscity since i was 15 and im 20 now so i didnt join just because of this, i got sick of not being able to post so this just gave me the enthusiasm to go and join the city. go look at my other posts if you dont believe me



NOW THEN lets get back on track and use this one small thread as a place to ask questions and see merchandise that i buy from The Vault. im actually about to go there now and say hi before it closes so ill probably have the pic of the slide up tonight

 

Here's the pix i was telling you about:

 

no its definatly a HVY. ill get a pic of the HVY samp even. thanks man. i love the mini tube. also I have gotten permission from the owner to post pix of the shop and of the glass he has. ill be trying my best to get them up tomorrow but no promises. ill get a pic of the $3600 custom illadelph he has on display..... its amazing to me that this new of a head shop would have so much custom work and name brand items from the get go. i bought a dope little heady worked chillum the day before the store opened... the owner let me in to take a look around. i got the HVY at The Valt. he has a shit ton of those colorful worked tubes and they all look magnificent
