Most definitely a great idea! Not only will it be helpful for your viewers, but if you are interested in increasing channel and video views, you definitely will gain some penetration. (yes, that's what she said.)

Imagine if you held it in your hands....its SO HEAVY and beastly! I wont say anything more

You need a china hat purge cap?

What about....

Alright, that being said....how bout I ask you this.... Where did you buy it?

Looks real to me

[quote name='Pavo21' timestamp='1331619122' post='542364'] Its just werid because erica and i use USPS almost daily with our fabric business, and shit really never costs that much and when you go to the post office to send stuff out if im to lazy to print a label they just ask is it anything breakable or viral or dangerous and i say no thats it they dont care, so yah idk i know people [b]try to make money off shipping[/b] but it just doesn't work out for people [/quote] I can assure you that no one in the hookah industry is actually [b][i]making[/i][/b] [i][b]money[/b][/i] off of shipping charges.

KDV is sales tax

Cant imagine how much the papatya would go for [/quote] 5Star has the Papatya up. It's $499, which is too high, IMO. Had Mahir not gotten the 628 and 618 models first, 5Star would have priced theirs a LOT higher I bet. I think the only reason the Papatya is so high is because Mahir doesn't have it listed on his site, so 5Star feels they can charge more for it since they're the only ones who have it. Again, just my opinion, may be totally off-base... Justin, that is probably the most gorgeous Elmas model I've seen yet. Would be extremely awesome if it had the lotus tray on it, like the Papatya has. What's the model number for that pipe, and how much would it cost shipped to the US? Not that I'm going to get it; just curious. EDIT: Sorry Lunch, I thought you meant how much the Papatya would be at 5Star. Now I realize you meant from that site Justin linked to. I think... haha. [/quote] Yeah no that's not true, Mahir quoted me a little over $500, something like $525 maybe a bit more. This was a like a month ago. 5star pricing scheme is along the same lines as Mahir's. [/quote] Nope, I didn't quote that for a Papatya....that was for the Osmanli which is the 701, Elmas's most expensive pipe they have to offer. I am not commenting on the $499 pricepoint at aid vendor. But what I will say is, those of you who did ask me a price quote for the Papatya know what I quoted and you could share with the world the shipped pricing I gave you.

Looks like we have a copy and paste guru on our hands.....

Thread jack.

When all is said and done, it's all politics. Chris, you are right about the balancing effect. I lose $5-10 when I ship hookahs. Medium Flat rate boxes no longer cost $10 either. It's about $11. So either way I look at it I lose. Sure beats paying for calculated rates.

In a bubble mailer, 3 50g packs fit and should be shipped with USPS First Class Mail. Also, 1 250g of Nakhla also fits in a bubble mailer. Remember : First Class Mail has a 13oz limit. Anything over that goes to Priority Mail or other ground carriers such as FedEx or UPS.

Clayton and I are going to be at the Meridian Hookah Lounge tonight at 8pm if any of you want to join us. My number is in my sig if you need anything -Mahir
