yea it is. If tis gonna be a main distribution site for smileys, which i am sure it will not since its too expensive, they should have paid a good webmaster to do it and not a stoner,, Also check out the order page, looks ghetto as hell, proally not even secure. Smiley sure picked a winner with OPD Edited by oggie505#2

Ya, I'd say false clims of only us produced Shisha would get one in trouble...especially if one of the other us made brands gets it in his mind to do something about it.

How about at least a shread of integrity there OPD?

I CALL SHENANIGANS!

this is ridiculus.. 39.95 for a box of eagles coals????? I wouldn't use them if they were free. they smell like crap and ash like crazy and dont last but like 20 minutes. A QT IS 85.00......
and of course 5.95 for shots.....

And he is making the smiley bowls appear at first glance to be nefarious ...........

the site is poorly made, half the links dont work and i'm not on a mac. I'm very dissapointed.....

opd should def take down the only american made shisha as that is incorrect and I hope smiley understands while i'm not mad at him for making a decision to mass distribute/ make more money/ ect I am disappointed with his choice of distributor.

Now you guys..you all know OPD is going to read your comments and not be happy. He's going to say stuff like "THIS ISN"T A FINISHED WEBSITE, IT'S PRIVATE, AND JUST A TEST SITE" so lets not jump to any conclusions here. You never know, they might just lower their prices to the market average and decide to compete with everyone else, instead of sitting 30-40% higher than everyone else.

Wow, I'm sorry OPD, but what little respect I have remaining for you is quickly draining. I'm not going to criticize poor web design or an "ugly" looking website, but I will criticize you on more important points, namely money, and illicit materials


Prices man, they're completely off the charts. You may be able to rope in hookah noobs with these prices, but some one will do their research and see they can get all that stuff for 1/2, 1/4 of those prices. What little pople dont do cross reference research will probably be turned away by price.

Second, the drug paraphinelia (sp?). You seriously have the nerve to sell glass bowls and BUBBLERS, clearly used for drugs, next to you hookah bowls. Now I am DEFINATELY sure, you have lost any respectable member of this forum's business. Heavily helping the stereotype of Hookahs as Drug Paraphinelia? Really man, I take back my previous statement, all repect I had remaining is gone. Pleasem PLEASE, PLEASE, if you have to try and make a quick buck, make a different site for fucking drugs. Hell, while your at it, make it a drug and porn site, it'll be a smash hit. But don't besmirch our wonderful hobby, and make it even harder for us to coexist in the tobacco world without cops swab testing our bowls when we go out to the park. And as for your false claims of the only American homegrown shisha, I really hope you get sued man, you can't just make claims like that.

Good luck with business, I'm not a believer that this forum represents 100% of your customer base, I really think we only represent 15%, maybe 20%. But as for sales, Hookah Forum members probably contribute to 70% of the sales sites like MNHookah and Hookah Company.

I think this may be enough for me to hold the first (hopefully annual) WTF?! awards. I'll smoke some meats, light some bowls and we can come up with some sort of sculpey award to send to OPD. Maybe it can be followed up by a reading of the hookahnauts nut-kicking list.

An excuse to party

I'm convinced this is all just a big joke......
.....a shitty joke, but a joke non-the-less.

The site looks like a kid's project from a highschool web page design class.....a project that most surely received an "F".

A couple of things, the personal info posted is public domain, like stated it is in the whois database, which by law exists, but cannot be used for hurtful means..

The price for coals, I agree it is messed up who on earth is gonna pay that price.

The problem with the glass pipes, I agree it kind of brings the hookah stereotype down for it, but for that I do not blame OPD, those pipes are actually made by smiley, he owns a shop called 420 or something like that, but OPD should not be selling them on a site with hookah either, its the reason why hookahs get a bad rap with poeple

Yeah, Smiley knows very well Tangiers is made here, in the USA. The only reason they would be saying such a thing is to be assholes. Sultan is produced in the USA, Starbuzz, etc. Smiley's base is from Saudi Arabia (or used to be), so his claim isn't even true.

Awful jackasses.

Well, it means one of two things. Either A) somebody hasn't done their homework and is uninformed or B ) They're dishonest.

I don't think its ultimately that big a deal.

Wait, maybe I'm misreading it:
"THE ONLY AMERICAN PRODUCED SHISHA"
Directly from the front page of that website...

Does that exclude Tangiers somehow? Edited by Sonthert
The cool smiley is B)

OPD is NOT Gil. I have spoken with OPD so I am removing whi whoi stuff. I'm sure that's just who the domain is registered to. OPD HAS given his contact number already in an ealier thread. I suggest looking THAT up.

This has to be the biggest laugh going.

Smiley is Jeremy Beadle and I claim my $10.

Seriously though. I feel sorry for anyone stupid enough to order from this guy. I hope that some of the militant brothers will get together to see what can be done.

$89 for a bloody QT. $5.95 for 15g's 'sample pack'

Smiley is acting like a pratt getting into bed with this guy. I just hope that they have not kidnapped the real smiley and have him locked up in the basement.

congrats. I have upgraded OPD/Smiley to (deleted) status. $99.95 for this?!?! I brought something like this $30.
