Ebay And Craigslist Hookah Finds


Recommended Posts

Good stuff...I sent an email to him to get bigger pictures. I am not sure how much work, or if I will even be able to restore it, or if it just needs a simple scrub down to look good. I am more concerned with using it as a collectors/display piece than smoking out of it, but if I can smoke it, I certainly will! Anyone want to help me with the better pictures he sent me to give me some more advice on it? I want to ask for a picture of the tray rest and ash tray just to be sure, but dont want to ask too many questions...if anyone can help with the larger pictures, PM me please!

Another good laugh I thought I would share for two "Hookah Lamp Bongs"

My friend recently was able to grab a mint condition KM Black Pear on Ebay, cleaned, with a jumbo KM Base, Nammor Hose, and all the accessories (tongs, 2 egyptian bowls, brush) for $55 on a 3am ebay grab.

Needless to say, kid was souped! And it smokes great.

Ooh, tempting. Put it on my watch list (BF was saying he'd like a full brass hookah)

Wow that thing is gorgeous.

That normal price for Boho vases? And what type of hookah is that boho for?

Going rate depends on bohos. If it's one that is more commonly found, you're looking at around $30-50. If it's a pretty darn rare one... Well, let's just say the very last aqua blue jumbo boho that Eric had at his lounge sold for $180.

Is $170 too much for this one? Well, you be the judge. I personally wouldn't spend that much on it, but then again, I've never seen one like it.

Looks to me like it'd be perfect for Khalil Mamoons, Temsahs, Faridas... those size hookahs.

That's the kicker. Something is only WORTH what someone else will PAY for it. You can "say" that something is "worth" such and so, but if another person won't PAY "such and so" then fuhgetabutit. By the same reasoning, something "priceless" is "worthless". (hey, it's after midnight here, I'm more than 3 LI ice Teas in - if you're expecting my usual reasoning wait until morning ;) )

That boho is sure gettin a lot of hate, I think it looks nice at least. I think it would look pretty neat on a tri-metal with a yellow hose or something.

And makes sense what you guys say, its only worth how much someone is willing to pay for it. But still, there are averages, so like you said chris, the more rare ones are probably around 150 mark? If I ever get some excess dough I might have to consider it. $150 could get me a TON of shisha though...

Alright HF members: I know y'all are real tempted to get this fine piece of hookah at a discount but seriously, don't lowball him. It even recirculates the smoke for you.

I gotta say, I've never seen someone do the hose like that before... haha. And what a ridiculous price.
