Hey I got an email from this guy name Don Laing asking me to make him so prodo bub's. I have never met him before, he said he saw my stuff on glasspipes.org. He said he is from Orange County, CA and was looking to sell some things to local shops. I told him I would sell him some jars but would get back to him on the bub's.

So as anyone ever heard of him? Does anyone think this is a shady deal? Is there anything I can do to not screw myself? I'm just getting started in the business and could use some steady work. Comments would e greatly appreciated.

Yeah dude, I think I am just gonna try to push some jars on him. Can I like... just ask if he is a cop or something?

nothing says cops can't lie.....they're not under oath when they're on the beat.

they can't lie to a judge, under oath... but they can and do lie every day to make busts.

Personally, I wouldn't deal with any connection made through gp.org or anywhere online.

I recently got a request on myspace from a 17 yr old in PA for pieces. LOL!!!!! I didn't respond and I blocked him from viewing my profile; I don't have pieces anywhere online! I never implicitly trust anything, content or otherwise, on the internet! Just because you're paranoid don't mean they're not after you!!!!

I get solicitations from Myspace every once in awhile. There's a few head shops in my area that want my bubs and stuff. Yea, I'm in high demand for my heady work,brah.

I don't even make 'em.

If you need steady work- look up tobacco stores/ smoke shops in your area/ region, call them up and ask when a good time to stop by is, bring your glass to them, and booyaa.... there are more customers then you can handle out there you just need to motivate on finding them...

Go get a selling seminar on cd and listen and learn and implement.

Also remember it is not illegal to ship within states that allow it.

Same dude sent me an email too! I told him I'd consider it, but I'm in the process of moving and couldn't do anything until after that. I didn't really suspect him too much from his emails. Seems decent enough. Who knows though, maybe he is a cop. Haha. If so, they've got wayyyy too much time on their hands. You'd think they'd be out busting rapists and murderers instead.

Anyway, if I get any more info on the dude I'll post it here.
