I think $2,000 is the most I'd ever be willing to spend on a bong, and that's a far fucking stretch. I've got the money to do it, but like many others have said I rather just buy a bunch of weed with that extra money. But hopefully I won't have to be buying for too much longer cause I'm planning on growing real soon once I move.
You keep those things in a case, you do not want the water ruining Snics beautiful patina work. It's completely worth it if you value it that much as an art piece. There are beautiful snuff boxes in museums, that is the bong equivalent. Maybe you'd have to sneak one toke out of her when you have something to celebrate.
I say go for it if you have the cash! Im assumin if you have 5K kickin around for a piece of art your pretty well set on weed and other necessities. This would be a piece i would hit only on the most special of occasions. Birth of a child, special anniversary.. ya know shit like that. Id love to see pics of it in the case if you buy it Cheers.
5 grand for a fucking bong??!?!?!?! FUCKKKKK THAT! thats wayyyy to expensive. u could buy a 200 dollar bong and a shit ton of bud with that. don't waste your money
People need to stop saying "zomg why would you ever spend so much on a bong, its just a bong." That's like saying, "who the fuck appreciates the mona lisa, i mean its just a painting"
Your so right man, compare it to paintings, sculptures, even vintage cars and such!! its no different, besides its possible function Most of you are ignorant "HOLY SHIT1!!11111 why would you ever pay that much?!?!? Id spend $__ on this and the rest on this!" good to know but no one fucking asked you. Thats like asking if this painting is worth 10 grand and someones like "holy shit I cant beleive you spend that kind of money on alittle fucking paintiiiing...man Id buy a car or something!" great, your not in the position to afford to start an art collection of your own. Guess you never even read the title when you responded.
waste? It would be a waste to you, only because you think it's a waste. If you like quality glass and would buy this collab piece, you'd have plenty of money to spend on bud anyway, so the price of what you're smoking it out of wouldn't change the amounts you have. This is coming from a guy who has people say the same thing about my clothes. I like fashion, so I express it by buying from amazing crafters. "Your $500 Calvin Klein blazer is no different than my $20 generic coat" "You spent $200 on a scarf?! Wal Mart has them for $5!"- My mom about my Alexander McQueen scart It's the same thing here; if you want it, buy it. If you don't, shut up.
My friend recently purchased an Illadelph Coil. It didnt have all the art on it though but did come with a sick perculator. The coil is handblown. He said it cost him about $1000 so $5000 seams a little unreasonable. Unless this was a crazy custom hand blown Illadelph like a quad coil with a bunch of percs or a fetus than no I do not think this is worht 5k.
for myself, I'd be to concerned about breaking it whenever I used it and I don't think I'd enjoy it as a result.
honestly, if you have to ask...you probably should not invest in that piece. If 5000 is of concern to you, then it's not meant to be. It is worth that price, though-to whoever wishes to buy it.
It's funny how people come into this thread yelling "LOL A 5000 DOLLAR BONG NO WAY DOOD" I think you're looking at it the wrong way. This is wayyyy past not only the "bong" title, but also blows most glass art out of the water.
It's like a sports car. You keep it all nice and shiny in the garage all year, but take it out to show off a few times a year. And I agree with those who say people should stop saying 5k is too much. It may be for you, but maybe not to others. To stick to the car analogy, it's like telling someone who is looking at a brand new Mercedes that they should just get a used Honda and spend the rest on bills and a home theater. Different strokes for different folks. Nah mean?
