Shipping a used bong?

Discussion in 'Bongs, Dab Rigs, Bubblers, Water Pipes' started by StickyTurtles, Jan 5, 2021.

  1. My brother moved to CO....where glass pieces are bullsh*t priced....he wanted me to mail his bong back to him (I'm on east coast) ...problem is that it's dirty. Ive tried hot water, peroxide, salt, rubbing alcohol....it wont come clean enough!!! It's about a year old but was never cleaned much (he kinda lazy with that)
    How clean does it need to be? If it's wrapped REALLY well and doesnt smell is it safe to ship??

    I hear people like FedEx and UPS can open your packages or something??? I hear USPS won't unless like you have some kind of outstanding warrant? I really don't want to have to buy another bong for him....what else can I do to get this bong clean???

    Should I let it sit longer with rubbing alcohol inside it? Please help me out here.

  2. Just refuse to send it to him.. you can literally buy $10 or less glass online get him to do that lol
     
  3. Id love to know where I could order a nice tall bong with a perc for $10 .

  4. I didn't say a nice tall bong with a perc lol.. a basic bong will cost you no more then $10 if you look around online.

    Why doesn't your brother just buy a new one online???
     
  5. Most bongs ive seen online with percs are $100+ while some really nice ones can be bought at a gas station here for like $60. I think he wanted his back so he didnt have to pay me to buy another for him and mail it, really I just want to clean the one I have and try to send it if possible

  6. It takes some agitation besides letting the alcohol sit and you shouldn't just use regular isopropyl alcohol but something with a stronger percentage

  12. Get it as clean as you can and then pack it in coffee grounds inside a sealed Ziploc bag.
     
  13. I'm gonna say this once.

    Mail it to him with a bogus sender address so if he gets arrested it can't come back to you.

    Goodluck, make sure you nail the postage and don't tape over the stamps.

  14. It legal to have them where he lives. He in colorado. Would I still need to be worried?
     
  15. Buy some pipe tobacco, make sure it's super clean and perhaps for the sake of the people shipping it include a note saying for tobacco use only.

  16. Yeah. Its illegal if its dirty and smelling like asshole. Id soak it for days and scrub it maybe put it in a couple trash bags to protect it. Id say your probably fine if it doesn't reek.

  18. Agreed, itll take 2-3 weeks to get to you but just tell his ass to order a new one from there. Real nice glass for a fraction of shop prices.

  19. Yeah I mean if weed was federally legally I'd just say OP should ship his bros bong but considering either of them could get into legal trouble it's not worth the risk
