I haven’t been on this forum for very long, but I’m very glad I’ve joined. Many things have been brought to my attention, but one of the most humbling things that I’ve noticed is how passionate some of you are about glass. It’s actually kind of inspiring. When I first got on this forum I had a game plan in mind and it was to make a certain pipe, and doing so in a production line set up. Well after a lot of debate and some self reflection on what I was doing and asking, it’s very easy for me to see how that is a slap in the face for a glass artist out there. With that being said I’ll be completel changing what it is I’ll be doing with my torch, and I also want to start changing what I’m selling. I currently buy rigs, water pipes, chillums, spoons, bubblers, bowls, domes, anything and everything glass now thru various wholesale sites online. These are not quality products but are very cheap price wise. What I’m looking for is an artist interested in doing business. I need all those items and some. If anyone is interested feel free to PM me, and we can try to get on a more personal basis thru facebook or however. You’d be more than welcome to come by the shop and check it out. I live in Missouri and there are no such things as local artist. Not that I’m aware anyhow. Just to give you an idea what I could do order wise, I’d be willing to place large orders such as a thousand min for a list of various items (having various items would help me) or five hundred dollar min on specialty products. I’m not sure if there is a rule of thumb on how artist get paid, whether it’s up front or half up front, half on delivery (which is what I’d prefer) Those details can be worked out later. So if you’re interested in selling one or a few of the items I listed, please feel free to PM me. Also, I’m looking only to buy from the artist directly, no dealers. Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting and hopefully doing business with some of you.

Regards

*A reference check will be done either via me messaging pyrochixrock or calling shops you sell to now before any transactions are made.

Now that is a proper post!
Glad to read about the change of heart, and i truly hope it is sincere.
There is a lot of gifted peeps here and I am sure you will get something going with someone as long as you are legit.
American made glass may cost a little more, but it is truly worth it.

Way better quality. Putting money back into your country.
Putting money in the pocket and food on the table for a hard working fellow American is The way it should be done.
By selling a higher quality product you may lose some sales in the beginning. But you will gain a better clientele and that means more money.
Word travels fast.

Unfortunately i do not have my setup operational right now and when i do I have 3 large orders to fill otherwise I would give
You a chance myself. "Everyone deserves a chance right?"
I don't know any blowers in your area but I am sure there is some somewhat close.
We seem to be everywhere...

I wish you luck in this endeavor and hope someone helps ya out "sure most peeps here need/like money"
Stick around and maybe we can do business sometime

Outstanding. :) You have repaired some of my faith in humanity with this post. I'm really glad you have had such a change of heart.

And sure, I'll be glad to let you know what I know of people before a transaction but I won't know everyone. I do my best to know each and every one of you, but there is only one me lol. :D

Nice to hear you changed your plan of attack & want to do more of the enjoyable aspects of glass blowing. There are many really good & well known artists on here, I hope you can find some to form a mutually beneficial relationship with. Good Luck!

Thanks everyone for showing some love. I currently have a few artist I've traded info with, so it may be a minute before I ask for anymore quotes. Thanks again, and I'll be updating next time I'm looking.
