gee

03-11-2007, 07:10 PM

AHHH!!! does anyone know if i can send it for repair ANYWHERE?

yeah man. just go to tokecity.com forums and the glass section. some amazing glass fixers are there, and they even do some sick customs and shit.

i can personally vouch for Woods Glass and have heard amazing things and seen amazing bongs by kenaroo.

Is this breakage a result of poor craftmanship of the piece or someone dropping or leaning on or abusing said piece(interested to know for my future purchases)
I would contact Roor diectly if the bong was not up to par in the first place.

I would like to know this as well. I just picked up a new Roor a couple of weeks back. Pics also.

wtf?

ok i can understand why someone would say that when someone else claims to have a qp of good bud or more..

but seriously? you'd have to be pretty fuckin pathetic to lie about breaking a roor.. especially on this site lol... you'd get more hate then 'respect' so there's no real reason to lie about it....

you can find a glass blower, they can usually fix things like that... i don't have any inparticular but i definately know there's a chance a glass blower can fix it for you (depends on their skill and the break tho... the smaller and more peices there is, the less chance it'll come out right... i.e. 2 big peices, pretty much garunteed, 10 small peices, far from garunteed)

No need for the insults, but seriously...

If you're going to buy a quality piece like a Roor, you might want to make sure it lasts longer than a month.

haha is everyone on this forum like 3 years old? it's kind of pathetic to display such arrogance on a message board...
in my own defense, it was just an accident. accidents happen. the ground joint is the only thing that broke. i think i am going to have a glassblower who knows roor well to do the 51% increase in glass thickness on the ground joint...i forget what its called. i don't regret spending the money, i just need someone to fix my baby!

The guy that owns the headshop around here is an expert glass blower, you should see some of the zongs and bubblers he makes. But anyways my buddy broke his bong he bought at grasscity was like 100 bucks, it broke at the base and he fixed it for 22 bucks (The price of the material plus 5 bucks is what the guy said). So there is someone out there who will fix it for you or I could get this guys email and see if you can send it to him.

That sucks, man. I can't stand the bullshit hype that comes with Roors, but that must really be a bite...

Is there something you can buy, possibly on a chemistry website- those round rubber rings that go around glass pieces (beakers, test tubes, ect) so that if they fall, the rubber stops it? Maybe you can get that for your bong if you get it fixed!

Good luck!

Augh - sucks! I remember when my friend broke one of my Roors less than a month after I got it. Snapped the stem off right at the bubble, taking a big section of the bubble with it. Good news is all is not lost -We can rebuild it, make it better, stronger prettier!

I cleaned the piece with denatured alcohol and a pressure washer - there can BE NO RESIDUE in it otherwise it may lead to uneven heating and adds to the cracking risk - plus most shops won't touch one that even looks a little dirty. Found a local headshop with a glass blower, chatted him up, and he said he'd give it a try - no guarantees but if he destroyed it, he'd return the pieces and give me a killer deal on a new one. I told him to have fun with it and add a little color if he could.

Repair cost my friend $85 and took less than a week before I got the call to pick it up. It's got the equivalent of the Bistabil joint now - nearly twice as thick as "stock" - and he added a couple of marbles and some blue squigglies to it. I couldn't be happier, actually. Now its a one of a kind and adds a little flash to the utilitarian design of the Roors.

Some people don't look at their possessions and think "gee I could really smoke a lot with the money that I spent on that..." That's fucking lame.

Go waste your money some more. Are you the one getting raped by the weed dealers after spending 200 a quarter. Want my paypal account, just put it in there.

lol such a childish statement....

i'm not really on either side i've already said 300 is too much to spend on a smoking device (much less the 500 plus for a volcano) but just because someone can afford that doesn't for any reason automaticly mean they're getting the money from someone else..

you know some people do have this thing called a job, and ontop of that... some more people, save peices of their 'spendable' paycheck (spendable meaning the money they can shoot away at what ever, i.e. after paying w/e bills they have to and alotting for food and what not) to save up for things they want to buy.... never did anything he say, even signify he gets the money handed to him..

so that's a really childish statement, and even more so... seems to be rooted more in jealousy then anything else... get a job (or if you do have a job along with responsibilty) save up bits until you can afford to get you a peice like that if you're so jealous of him having it...

KindMidasSoundman

Yeah... it IS a pretty childish statement isn't it? I love being like that.

P.S. I'm not jealous of this person at all. I am disgusted by his/her attitude. This is caused by bitterness, not jealousy.

Have a nice day!

All above points duly noted and humbly taken, Slip

I have been having some financial difficulties lately, and (obviously) I let those (personal) problems affect the flavor of my posts.
For this, I apologize, but in my defense, I never DID say I was the most grown-up person here! ;)

Also to 'soundslikewill'
I'm sorry for disrupting your thread like I have. In my younger days, before I had as much responsibility as I do now, I too owned a couple of (relatively) pricey smoking pieces and come to think of it, I know it would have broken my heart had any of them ever broken.

I hope you can get it fixed

Sorry for being a dickhead :( :jointsmile:

see, smoking makes us happy! only on a site like this will you see people arguing, then saying they are sorry for being mean.

End internet flaming, prescribe weed to computer geeks!!

also, sucks man, i cant imagine spending so much for a piece, but I actually shed a tear or two when I broke my favorte piece (snapped the tip of the stem, so it gives a nice, sharp hit now :( ) and it was only 35$.

slipknotpsycho

03-13-2007, 10:15 PM

i don't got weed so unless you're a doctor that delivers i can't fulfill that prescription...

my most expensive bong was 75... it was an exact replica of a bong me and my (now dead) brother used to smoke out of.... some dickhead broke it by the way... it's not blown glass (it's what they call 'soft glass'... mass produced and what not...) but the head shop doesn't have another... i learned from them they don't really ahve a catalogue they order from, so that 2nd bong, was a fluke.... still have the peices but since it's not blown clear type glass, it can't exactly be fixed... without looking really tacky (it has a white background... like frosted glass) it could be repaired, and put together but it'd look really tacky...

but point is, my most expensive peice (i own a lot fo glass btw) was 75... it was more then enough, so that you couldn't really clear it... more then enough to get you good and fucked up, including ice water (by that i mean, even with ice and water it was unclearable to the general user.. i've seen someone clear a 6 foot bong, but that's not something you often run into) but it was also cheap...

the bong held alot of sentimental value and i nearly went psycho when it happened (sadness just happened to take over... well after shock subsided..) i can't find it (i have looked, over and over and over..) but, the bong it's self was plenty good enough...

paying ridiculous ammounts of money, and losing the bong is about as hurtful as one that holds sentimental value... but not quite.. there's always bigger and better bongs out there... but finding one that holds sentimental value.... is a bit harder...

gee

03-13-2007, 11:49 PM

Even the most desperate stoners smoke out of Sobe bottles sometimes. Keep that in mind. Smoking out of a 350 dollar piece of glass versus a 2 dollar glass bottle- which one sounds more of a waste?

It's all about creativity!

it aint all about creativity, what would rather smoke out of, a dirty sobe bong with glue to make it airtight, unless u inserted a rubber grommet slide, or a fuckin smooth, milkable piece glass on glass bong which makes smoking a pleasure.

dont hate just cuz u like smoking sobe bongs, the only way i would smoke out of one of those will be wen im extremely deperate (like u said), no papers or blunts or glass bongs which is rare

03-13-2007, 11:54 PM

Mine was 300, with bag and diffuser. My friend just bought a new triple chambered roor for 640, including the bag and diffuser. So now, all of our friends get together and we smoke all of our roors, 6 in total. We call it a roor party. Its something people who dont own roors cant do, and maybe thats why we do it. We payed extra for a quality product, after all.

huh

03-14-2007, 02:14 AM

thats shitty...

i still remember when my friend broke this kids 3foot bong, it was dark out and he went to grab it and it tipped over. the shitty thing is that we all saw it in slow motion falling. :(

I don't have anything against expensive glass, but Roors always look kind of cold and industrial to me.

I'd rather spend money on something that looks friendlier and can take being dropped once or twice.

There is a difference between having money and wasting it on a piece of glass that you obviously don't know how to take care of. quads huh? is this gangsta for ounce? I don't get all the cool lingo thugs use.
