they are probably upwards of $150. i have a homie with multiple sheldon black pieces, bongs and bubblers, and they are solid, quality pieces, ive thought of buying one myself. i havn't tried a sb a/c yet, but if the quality is anything like the bongs and bubblers you wont be disappointed.
I don't get splashback at all and I have a pretty large tube. Just pull the ac too when you clear it. It's especially nice when I put it on my Name Brand mouth piece attachment.
i got mine for $60 at my lhs......i put a gmd showerhead in it and it stacked hard! never had any drag or splash back....i used it on my 18" beaker and it felt a lil small for a taller tube, so i sold it to a buddy! it looks and functions a lot better on his 12" tube! i still loved that a/c tho its a great buy for the price and is thick as hell a quality piece
I think its a great ash catcher because of the removable downstem, that will make it so much easer to clean and if i know one thing its that ash catchers get very dirty. What its worth, probably $50 - $100, what it will cost $100 - $200 probably.
your wrong they dont sell for more than 80 at you lhs and if you are going to pay over 100 for it go on ioffer some guy selling them for 100
