Im running low on some joints so Im looking around at who has the best price.

I remember checking EUs site and they had them for a dollar a piece on the 14mm males, and now they are double that. WTF??

Where is the best place to get joints for cheap?

Yeah EU is now exclusive distributor of Lenz joints, so they jacked the price. I think Mountain Glass Arts has a good alternative.

Well that is a real douche thing to do... They rope you in with good prices at the beggining and now they jack up the price..

Mountain Glass is not much cheaper for the Indian or whatever accugring joints.

the accugrinds are nice... but abr has the china ones for a dollar or 1.50 usually. you can tell the difference just by looking at them tho that the accugrinds are way nicer

why did EU's price go up?
not so sure thats the correct story about their price going up, sounds more likely that they are jacking the price because they can.

This should be the "Why do we ever use Chinese raw materials?" thread.

they told me all the joints went up about a buck a joint. it seems pricey i agree. gotta buy a whole case at a time and get the best deal possible i guess.

I may be wrong, but I think Adam only deals with the Chinese

all i can say is i tried to make an order one time, then he acknowledged in a post that he recieved it, then i never heard a word about it. i dont usually try repeatedly to get stuff from someone, especially if they said they got my order, and then dont deal with me.

I just got an order from Adam at GTI. Wasn't hard.

I called this morning, picked it up just after noon. Of course he ships.

He answers his phone, his email, his FB.

I've never gotten a better price, anywhere.

Definitely recommended.
