Yeah the cops (undercover) kept asking him to mail the wanted bong to a state in which it is illegal, they kept saying no, but their order was taking a lot of place in their factory thang for months, they kept trying to make the customer go to their state. The cops kept trying kept trying and one day, the bong team just said oh fuck it lets mail it... And that is how he got caught...
With the work of some wonderful and so useful cops who wasted months to catch Tommy Chong ...
Edit: I believe they also found a pound of magical herbs in his house

There are way to many shitty people in this place. I bet they felt accomplished for sending a pothead to prison.

seems kinda silly because people who start smoking weed dont buy bongs usually make something or smoke joints. and the people who invest in bongs usually smoke a good amount of weed and are not gunna stop because cant buy a bong. so what i mean is its not going to prevent people from starting or get anyone to stop smoking.

If I were in Aus I would consider moving to one of the places where it is legal to produce and sell bongs and start an online business. They might not be able to prosecute you for selling them if you are technically selling them in a different place. By the time they arrived where they are illegal to sell then they would already have been paid for. You could market it as being a local type business, and it would be cheaper than ordering from overseas. You would have all the market that the closed head shops had.

You know the au could be a place with a lot of potential, but they seem to be on a conservative streak in recent years and have been attempting to stifle the drug policy reform movements

Make friends with a glass blower and see if you can sort something out. I'm sure you could make some nice pocket money from it. He'll be your wholesaler and you'll be the middle man.

Sure, do you guys want to point me to a website like glassblowerfriends.com or something of the sort?
I'm egging some of my wealthier stoner friends to get into it, ones with big ego's that think they will be the master of the underground bong guild. I'm making another order with some other friends in the next week or two, I'm going to order an ashcatcher, some glass screens, keck clips and some plugs for cleaning, if this gets through I'll probably get another bong

I met some glass blowers through people I know. A shop approached one guy to make bongs but he was hiring his workshop space from an educational facility and he did not want to risk upsetting anyone, even if he wasn't doing anything illegal.
I used to go down and watch them make stuff. It was pretty cool and we'd crack jokes and watch all of the hot girls who walked past. Girls seem to love glass blowers too because they're artistic.
Anyway, I think if you've got good social skills then you can eventually get what you want but it might not happen straight away. Maybe find a place and go down and see if any cool guys work there that you can click with. Maybe there's a forum for glass blowers in your state?

I love the fact that people are already thinking about creating a black market for bongs.
I fucking hate the fact that it will encourage people to use synthetic plastic/rubber blend garden hoses that produce carcinogenic smoke when burnt.
What is Australia coming to? Australia really seems to pride itself on being the fucking nanny state of the western world.
I don't even smoke bongs and I'm pissed off.
