Pipe Exchange 2010

Fuck Canada, you're not a real country anyways.

hahahaha, just kidding Clear Dome.*you can blame South Park* Sorry though, I'm having a hard enough of a time just trying to keep everything straight down here. You've been around a while, got some good Rep. going on, why don't you host a Canadian pipe exchange? That way you can figure out your own laws and how best to proceed.

This thread is just a few days old and I've already gotten tons of responses.

BE HONEST PEOPLE. That's it. If you've never sold a piece for $20, don't ask to play. And if someone does send out a crap piece, post pics on here and we'll rip on 'em.

On the West Coast, $20 wholesale is actually a pretty pimp ass little piece. In Wisconsin, it's probably not as nice, and do they even have glass pipes in Alaska for $20 (I've been quoted some off the hook pricing).

So sure, if you put how long you've been torchin I'll try and match ya up somewhere near your time. But time is NOT necessarily an indication of skill...

^^Sorry man, I'm originally from MN... Talkin smack about you cheese heads is in my blood

**Deez** · 06-12-2010, 03:39 PM

its true- when i lived in san fran 25 wholesale was four wig wags put together with full color tubing, and strobel millies on the side. 25 over here on the east coast is like frit or fume with one wig wag capped on the end!.

Shh! Don't let the east coast shop owners know!

Isn't gibson glassworks up in BC? maybe they could trade?

Maybe instead of wholesale prices it should be retail. I think that might take out some of the confusion

**SoberstoneGlass** · 06-12-2010, 08:03 PM

i think everyone participating should put forth a great effort and send someone something special. if the final product is something that makes you proud and represent your unique style, then i'd say it's worth sending.

I know that the piece i'm working on is worth more than 20, so i mean use the amount as a base guideline for your starting point and don't let it limit the creativity that you put into the piece.

this exchange isn't really about how expensive the piece is, it's about sharing the art you love with others that have the same passion, and i think the final piece should show that passion. No matter what skill level a person is at.

all right allready, lets just make a list and trade some glass , before this thread disappears. as far as price ,i still struggle with knowing what things are worth to other people. my piece will have more than one part , but will easily fit in your hand. it'll also be something different than i've done to date. i've swapped a couple pieces with different people on here and have been happy every time, still waitin on crowley ,but i have faith.

A slide exchange would be pretty cool to.

**SoberstoneGlass** · 06-12-2010, 09:35 PM

i'd be down for the slide exchange after this also.

**Belliott** · 06-12-2010, 10:52 PM

i dont think anyone is going to half ass it. we are all glass blowers and would anyone one want to give something to a fellow blower that was half ass. i know i wouldnt want to be know to u guys as the half ass dude. who cares about what prices around the states are. all i want is a piece that has a little of your personal flare. thats what im giving and thats all want from anyone else.

humm well hosting a Canadian pipe exchange should be nice but we are not 1000 here to make pipes , it is not like in the USA here . Also note that I sent spoons and bubbler a lot of time to USA without any trouble so ?

Also I know that what you did was joking but dude south park is south park you know ...you should at least visite the Quebec and the BC before laughting about the Canada , I'm pretty sure it is way cooler than what you think . anyway just let me know if I can do the trade or not and if I have to trade with an other Canadian

I live in Montreal for almost 5 years before all that 911 stuff and man it was so awesome there! My favorite major city. Quebec city is really beautiful too but don't go there unless you speak good French. The people in quebec city are really awful to you if you don't speak French.
