So I decided that I'm going to buy a roor brand bong to celebrate the start of school. So anyone know the best place online to get a Roor or similar high grade bong for the best price?

don't waste your money on a brand name
buy something from a local blower

Lies. Roor is the best. I've had mine for oh, 4 or 5 years, and I got it off a friend who had it 2 years before that. Don't get a super huge one, and make sure you buy black label. The color of writing can correlate to the thickness of the glass. Look online, see what the prices are compared to your local head shop. Do some googling, so you don't waste your money.

Well the one I'm looking at now would run me about 120 and has nice thick glass, a 2 foot chamber, and none of the extra frills that I don't need. I'm also looking for some place to order online so I can have it shipped to my future home where I'm moving to friday. I'd rather have a nice bong waiting for me when I arrive then have to go out and search through local head shops

well, roors are cheaper from the german source, by a significant amount, but I can't read german and I'm not sure how much the shipping would be

Yeah, that's where I was looking at first, but the german site is cheaper. Well, they're all priced the same but the german site is in euros whereas everyonedoesit is in pound, so therefore more expensive.

So As I said, You should get the black label for thickness. Its 5mm glass. The one you have chosen is 3.5 mm glass. Does it matter? Well I guess it depends how long you want to keep the bong. I had a friend who got one, it might have been the same one, it was wrecked in less than a year of owning in. He is one of the most careful people i know, and the inny piece got all chipped. It looked like someone took a metal file to it. Buy a locally made cheap bong if you want a cheap bong.

£100 is steep, so it better be good. Sounds like it is, though. I should pick up a bong myself one of these days. If it's as good as it looks, I'm sure it won't disappoint.

At least you do clean it. I feel 5.0 mm is the way to go. The thinner ones are lighter, and I just feel they aren't quality and are lacking structural integrity.

Alas, the thicker ones are about 100 bucks more. I'll just have to be very very careful I guess
