I will be spending some of that on headphones, clothes, and the rest into savings. So out of this I will use about $200 to buy myself a nice bong. What do you guys recommend? I only have a pipe and have never had a bong. Something portable thought not obnoxiously large even though big bongs are sick. Maybe a RooR? what do you guys think with this price range?
Not true my buddy picked up a roor on sale in a head shop for $108. Listed at $230 but the owner of the shop was wicked chill and said it had been sitying for too long. Keep in mind that it was pretty basic with stock slide and obly an ice catcher
for $200 you have some options. What exactly are you looking for in a bong? If I were you i would go with either this http://www.grasscity.com/us_en/smoke-shower-micro-circ-straight.html or this and cop a nice bowl and ash catcher to go with it http://www.grasscity.com/us_en/percolator-bong-ice-elite-6-arm-perc-no-carb.html
i spent 120$ on my diamond bong about 2 years ago. Just a nice glass on glass bong with ice pinches. Straight tube and about 14' tall. I got about 5 bongs now cause buying glass is addictive but its still one of my favorite bongs. This is a old pic about 6 months ago DSCN1272 by KottonmouthStoner, on Flickr
If you want quality scientific glass, I'd go with this http://www.bing.com/search?FORM=BABTDF&PC=BBLN&q=b+wilson+6+arm If you're looking for a bong specifically, check out Ehle bongs, like this: http://www.grasscity.com/us_en/smok...-straight-cylinder-2000ml-29-2mm-red-ice.html
In the 200 range I would suggest a few options, depending on what you want. For maximum diffusion, I agree with lez, the GMD/GWO mini tube would be fantastic. They are quite small (you should watch a video with someone holding them), but they have a ton of diffusion, and would give you the smoothest hit with the least drag. They are also fairly versitile because their short size is good for oils or vape-bonging. If you want a larger setup with a lot of versatility (and quality glass) I would look at HVY or SYN's straight or beaker tubes, which run around 100, and you can get a great diffused downstem, like an SG gridded downstem, an alex k showerhead, or a Luke Wilson downstem (there are other options, those are just some popular ones). You may also be able to talk to some small custom blowers other than GMD/GWO for a larger tube, I believe a user on this forum, smilyagent (apix glassworks), has made a few larger tubes, and I believe they are in your price range. Regarding the roor....The real ones are great quality tubes, but they don't offer much diffusion unless you upgrade the downstem. You can get a tube of equal quality for much less than a Roor, and often they even come with better diffused downstems...you pay a lot for the ROOR label. However, if you really like them, and you want a tube that isn't particularly diffused they are a good choices. If you want less diffusion you could also get either tube I suggested and just not upgrade the dowstem as well. If you are open to bubblers then they are a great choice too. You can get a lot of diffusion, or less, all in your price range. You could probably find a great custom bubbler in your range from the blowers I listed above (not exactly sure of their prices, but I think you could get a bubbler from at least smilyagent in that range), and that B. Wilson 6 arm is a great choice, as are many others on that site.
thanks guys for all your input right now im just considering all my options and damn am i excited for whatever i get. might all come down to what bongs they sell at my local smokeshop so im going to check it out soon
