Chinese Glass

Anyone ever buy Chinese glass pieces? Places like DHGate have oil rigs,bongs,pipes and whatnot for real cheap price. Im wondering if it would be worth it.
I am thinking on getting a oil rig for 50 dollars.

The stuff works pretty well. Just as well as my expensive stuff. No need to order online we have shops all around us down here that have that stuff.

I'd shop around for deals, you can usually find them. Buying Chinese glass is shitty. A) Because it undermines and degrades the artists over here that actually care about the craft B) You should try to keep your money in the US whenever possible.
Just my .02

Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

This is more than likely chinese, and has served me well:
Bought it in gaybec for $55 Minus the ashcatcher which was separate and broke pretty fast. The bong itself has seen a shit ton of use, a lot of which was in my workshop which isn't really a great environment for glass.
And fuck sentiment. This is the free market. I mean, I do try and buy US/Canadian made when I want the highest quality, like all my outdoor gear. But when you just want something to do a task for the best value, go with the lowest bidder.

Nice! So long as it doesn't have any faulty joints and holds up, that's a steal.

Meh... it's a crapshoot with this stuff. My chinese glass has been used hard and held up. Manitou had the same one and its been out of commission for a while.

My first bong was a chinese straight glass tube. It's fallen over countless times and it's still going strong. I think I've had it for almost 12 years. I've had several other bongs since buying this one but it's outlasted them all. Pretty sure I'll have it forever.

I did a real small test order from here.
http://6bglass.com/product-category/concentrate-glass/
Similar piece for only $25. It's generic stuff but I love it for jacket pockets and shit. Just leave a bowl in every jacket, never be without and they stay clean 'cause you have so many.

Why should that mean it isn't real?
