Most expensive piece you've broken?

Excluding the value of what was in it at the time, what's the most expensive smoking device you've ever broken? Me I broke a $19 pipe once right after I bought it! That little bitch slipped right outta the paper bag the headshop gave me when I was turning the key on the door to go into my house.

this is over 8 years....but it was mainly just being fucked up, wasted, xanax, oxys....you get the picture
the worst part about the trainwreck was i bought it cause it was 7mm glass, i knocked it over on a concrete floor and it bounced, but the perc inside broke off and the stem and all that shit broke that was new years eve 2009-10 i believe

One Magic Glass Voyager á 60€
Couple of cheaper ones(dunno the brand) á 25-30€
Funny thing is that I've never broken my own piece/bong, just friends, and friends have broke my stuff

Well I have broke many nice pieces over the years but the one that stands out above the rest was a beautiful 2 kink zong I had. It wasn't even the most expensive piece I have ever broke but was by far my favorite. I had it for probably 5 years. When I broke it I felt like I had just killed and old friend

I broke the percolator in my 100 dollar bong, but that is still useable so I dunno if that counts. Beyond that, me and my brother's first glass bong was a 50 dollar frosted glass bong with green scorpions on it, he took it to a party and broke it. Years later, after he passed, I found one exactly like it in a headshop and bought it instantly. Within just a few weeks someone had knocked it over and broke it. I tried gluing it back together but that didn't last long, it broke a third time. I keep the pieces of it still for sentimental reasons but I've given up on keeping it whole.
I've broken a lot of cheap pipes though..

Last one was that.. Had it for almost a decade before I finally dropped it on concrete and broke it.. =/
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Shoulda got that shit bubble-wrapped 
One of my first bowls broke after like a week of having it a few years ago. It was like 50 or 60 bucks... since then I've never spent more than $20 on a pipe just incase haha. Which has been a good plan.. cuz I've broken probably 3-4 pieces since then, which collectively don't amount to the cost of that first piece alone! I think I've broken them all from lapping them... either set the pipe in my lap and forget about it or just set it down for a second and shift my positioning a bit and they roll off. Aside from that first pipe, most of the other ones have been chillums, hence the rolling off.

Damn, how long ago did that happen? That's a very pricy bong, how much did it cost to "fix it?"

I've broke an 80 dollar pipe...it was a sick piece lots of cool work.
I also kicked over a 150 dollar inline bong. Nothing special, just a locally blown clear piece. Still, it was 150 bucks down the drain.
I broke my friends Zob ashcatcher but just the top where the bowl goes in...so I fixed it and gave him like 12 grams of shrooms lol

I have never broke any of my pieces but everyone in the world seems to love breaking mine. Worst was a $120 dollar bong.... she paid for another one though, an even better one, so its all good. 
I am very careful with all my glass.

I remember we used to hang out on playgrounds/kindergarten yards by night and smoke weed.. this one dude had a huge glass bong, that he used to take outside every now and then so we could smoke some bowls.
Well, this one time when we were going to meet up on a playground, I remember we were like a 100ft from the spot, just so that the others were behind a corner so we couldn't see them yet, and we heard glass getting shattered along with a looooong line of fucks and goddamits(mostly fucks), so we turned around to go grab another bong, then came back

That was like two years ago and cost me $250 to fix it.

That was like two years ago and cost me $250 to fix it.
After fixing it did it look like new? I'm sure it at least worked well again.
I'd like to hit a thousand+ dollar bong someday

I broke a few one hitters this year, and I've smashed DMT pipes on purpose but never anything worth more than 10-20 bucks. Chinese made pipes are cheap as shit at music festivals or online so I didn't really care too much.

A $300 bong that I loved. Had it in a bookbag and it slipped out of my hand. Hearing it shatter into hundreds of pieces was awful.
