Alternative site to buy GVG (glass vaporgenie)

Hi Nexus,

So SWIM was very keen to buy himself a new GVG and axe-pack (custom padded case), however on contacting the company (via their website) SWIM was told that they refuse to accept credit-card payments from people residing in Brazil (regardless of whether the credit card is from a Brazilian financial institution. Neither will they accept a credit card payment from someone who Isn't in Brazil and then send the item to Brazil on their behalf). The only way that they will send items to Brazil is if cash is sent via mail, or alternatively if a money order is sent. Both of these options prove to be quite time consuming in Brazil, not to mention quite expensive and a general hassle that one could really do without.

Note: they will also not accept paypal payments (due to a previous dispute that resulted in them being black-listed from paypal).

So my question is, does anyone know of another site that sells the glass vaporGenie that WILL accept credit card/paypal payments and ship worldwide?.....

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

peace...
 
I have never seen Glass Vapor Genies for resale, let alone shipping to Brazil. I'd say you're in for the money order if you really want it.
 
Send them money through this its very cheap and safe. I have used it before. Just ask them if its ok to send money strait to their business account I guess it should not be a problem. Good luck
 
"These pipes are not available for wholesale, so you will not find them anywhere except here on our website.

The Glass VaporGenie is handmade by Guy Thomas of Hi-Guy Glass in Vancouver, Canada. Thank you, Guy, for creating a clever, functional and attractive glass VaporGenie"

This is just an excuse to recommend my smoking device, a "machine" bubbler which I added another L joint to make it face down which works amazingly and cost me all of $3.50 plus some stuff lying around the house.
Alternatively one could use just a burned piece of copper which would have DMT scraped up onto it or melted into it and just placed in any pipe's or bong's bowl (with or without herbs) and light it up. No need for any extra care, you always get very nice vaporization.
I've had about a half dozen friends try it and though most cough on the first toke, they figure it out and smoke smoothly with extremely strong effects every other time.

I have not tried VG or GVG but I honestly have no curiosity to because this works so amazingly I couldn't imagine something working better.
 
Thanks for info :)

One thing I've never understood however, is why people choose to use a bubbler. Wouldn't this cause a significant quantity of the DMT vapor to condense upon hitting the water? Or is this loss acceptable due to the reduction of its harshness on the throat/lungs?

cheers

Thanks for this. It seems like a very useful site.

However if the company is unwilling to accept a credit card payment from me, then they are likely to not accept payment from an intermediary company which is accepting my credit card as payment (?..).

To be honest their attitude is quite infuriating and unjustified in my view....

I'm right in thinking that the site you advised doesn't require me to be in the UK or to hold a specific debit/credit card account with them, correct? I just provide my credit card details and they make the payment, similar to paypal?
Thanks!

There isn't any immediate condensation, at least in a significant amount (under 1% I'd guess) In fact if you really torch the copper you can still get very hot vapor from the bubbler (and burn the DMT)
I have done many low-dose tests in which I ended up leaving the chamber full of dense smoke and it takes well over 5 minutes for most of it to condense/dissipate
 
Thanks smokerx! I'll send vaporGenie an email on Monday (however gauging on how accommodating they have been so far I doubt they will go for it).

just checked it again and found out you can not use that service to send money from Brazil but here you can.

It seems this site will only process your payment if it is more than $US 400, or if you are making regular payments :(

cheers anyway!

oh I am sorry man , try looking for these kind of services. What about something like a western union ?

If not it looks like you will have to send them cash. Not very safe option but it may be the only one.
 
No worries. Thanks again!

I remembered I have a friend in the states visiting in a few months time, I guess I'll try and send it to him to bring over for me. Was keen to order it ASAP, but late is better than never...

Quite interesting. May I ask with what ambient temperature this was?


Kind regards,

Probably 18-22C, maybe cooler in the chamber due to the water.
I think I will do a controlled experiment later today with a stopwatch to be more scientific!
