Buying good glass

grasscity is kinda expensive after you calculate in shipping to the states.. plus the fact that you'll wait anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months before you get your glass... and that's if customs doesn't break it first.. or if GC doesn't send you a broken pipe.. too much to worry about with ordering from GC or EDIT.. I have done one order through GC but it was just for a j-hook so i was in no hurry to receive it

But on the GC forums there are a ton of great glass blowers... mostly from the states.. that'll sell off some sick glass at reasonable prices

here some other great sites for high end glass...
