Bought my first bong at a headshop for 45$ it broke when it tipped over. This one cost 57.45 with shipping http://a248.e.akamai.net/origin-cdn.../v/vspfiles/photos/BWG-HMS2-2T.jpg?1355502050 This one cost like almost 52.63 with shipping http://a248.e.akamai.net/origin-cdn.../v/vspfiles/photos/BWG-HMS1-2T.jpg?1355502050 Think both are same but one has color. Also question. It says Height: 11.0" Inches Tall Joint: 18 mm Downstem: 14/18 mm Diffused Downstem with LOGO Slide: 14 mm with handle Base Diameter: 4.50" inches Glass : 38MM Thickness: 5MM Which one is the bowl, which one is the slide. So I can know what slide to buy if i need replacement and what bowl. Cuz I don't understand.
I would check out your local headshop then, if that's where you got your first piece. Then you can inspect it and see the quality. I'm sure you could get something bitchin' for $50. If I had to choose between the two you linked, I would say go with the clear one. The yellow one will just look dirty all the time.
