VG VaporGenie: How to use, where to get, advantages, etc

[DudeMeetTyler]

good day all,

just a question about procuring such a lovely piece of equipment as the GVG for all the Canadian folk out there.

one has a few questions that they can not seem to find the answers to (VG site and here)

- are there any problems with the GVG getting through Canadian customs? (dunno why there would but ya never know)
- are there any additional customs fees?

- does VG site charge taxs to Canadian purchasers (no mention of it on their site, so presumably not but who knows)

The reason one asks is because there is a site within Canada that sells the GVG but the total, with taxes/shipping, is 175. Compared to the VG site which is 130 +/- differences due to the exchange rate and if there are any custom fees.


Thanks in advance for the replies,

The Dude

Can you a link to the site that sells GVG ? You shouldn't be able to find GVG anywhere else since it's a custom model sold only at their website.

You shouldn't have any problems since it's just a glass pipe. In general if there are custom fees for other things, there will be some for the pipe too.

a head shop in Vancouver, called New Amsterdam Cafe... have not ordered from them before though

it was just from within Canada and one liked the idea of not having it go through customs.. though they are not sure it will even be an issue...

does anyone have any experience ordering a GVG to Canada?

identical almost to the sherlock

 

[DudeMeetTyler]

Thanks,

The Dude

Hey! So I ordered the wooden one thinking that that was the one i needed to buy, in excitement I realized that people like the glass one better. Will i be okay with using the wooden one? It just came in the mail today. Let me know what you think


*Peace and Love*

I'm really thinking of buying the glass one.

It has been more than a year since i stopped smoking weed and the Devil's sticks, so my lungs can't really handle brake through doses anymore. I heard that the VG makes the smoke much less harsh, do you think that is true?

A note to anyone in the UK, i have had to pay extra for VAT and handling when i pick it up, not sure how much but i will report back.

There are two reasons I'm aware of that make the GVG so much nicer than the classic. First, it's glass, so you can recover all of your excess spice by washing it with a solvent. Second, the vapor is so smooth, that unless you watch it form, it's impossible to tell when you're getting it, and how much you've gotten.

Whoa that's interesting piece... I wonder if it has the exact same ceramic filter? Are these available online?

Wow, it sounds like what I'm looking for! Cheers

If you plan to use it for DMT, screens won't help you, get some mesh, such as chore boy copper scrubbers.

 

[d*l*b]

screens won't help you

They will be useful for putting one of them under the mesh though!
