[quote name='"austyn12"'] kk thanks and nice picture[/quote] No problem and another good one I just remembered is etsy
ioffer and etsy were the two I was going to say. Etsy has some restrictions on what you can put up though in terms of water pipes as of last year. Be sure to read their rules before just putting your work up. Also, try to get in touch with a local headshop. They support local artists and would probably carry your work.
Def. go to you LHS first, in all honesty, they will most likely try and fuck you over a little bit, at least a little. An old buddy of mine blew glass and went to LHS all over the place to supply their shops with quality glass, and they would buy it, for Way too cheap, then turn around and mark it up 4-5x the price. I know they need to make profit too, but taking advantage of Local blowers is no excuse for that. So that being said, I would still try, but try and act like you know your supposed to get more then what their offering, and they will see your not a noob and maybe will rip you off less. Another suggestion is selling them in your own shop, online or w/e and get all the money yourself.
^its called buying in wholesale. Look on etsy. You can find lots of like 20-30 pipes for 100$ or so. Those pipes can be sold for more than 5$ a piece. Same situation.
^good point man. I didn't really read the OP. I don't think you'll be making bongs that people will be buying in a few months. From what you say, I would think you have no experience/equipment to get started. The high end torches needed for making larger glass pieces are pricey and you'd need a lathe for bongs. Its a big investment. Do some research before thinking about the end result. Definitely get some experience before coming up with a business plan.
theres tons of really big Facebook groups to list it on I've sold some things there, try the heady glass groups, heady glass sales and heady glass trades, just post time stamp pictures and a function video
