Roor.de in America

[BiG H3rB Tr3E]

So I was in my local headshop today. (Da Glassworks in San Diego for those of you local) I picked up a 3 chamber, 2 perc American Roor. I started asking him about his straight tubes and he said they were American straight tube roors. He said that it is illegal to import glass like this so no store could EVER have it in America. He said that people cannot even order them online but people order from EDIT all the time right? I'm just wondering if this guy is full of shit or can shops really not get german glass here in america? And does anyone know a way to tell a difference between an American and a German roor by like sig or logo placement?

a friend of mine had a bunch of blank roor style beakers with the RooR label slapped on it and selling it at their price. pretty much identical to the GnOB's. people come in and see the RooR, and think they scoring some sweet glass. ahh.. dont you love "buyer beware"

So does this mean that LUX is made by RooR de.? If so i have a new greater respect for LUX.

no lux was made by the roor US camp, just without the roor name.

Anyways YBG, I thought it was opposite, and that LUX was made by roor.us before they got the go ahead to put the roor logo on it, and that LUX's are no longer being produced while roor US perc'd tubes are being put out.

Even though just recently it has been decided that RooR.us won't be doing perc's for a bit...according to a local shop owner.

German roors will deal with american headshops they just want alot of money to do so. my local shop was gonna carry roors but roor wanted the first order to b 10 thousand dollors and everyone comes to their store for toros so if they spend 10gs on one company they cant sell toros anymore then. so they said no and it is not illegal to have glass shipped overseas as long as its brand new!

First of all to be even considered to sell roor.us they have to have scouts coem to your store and make sure that you have enough "traffic" to the store...they dont wanna be seelling to some liil shit store downtown or sum shit....once you get accepted to sell RooR 10 Gs is only like 30 tubes or so plus ashctchers diffusers stands slides ashtrays mugs.....(LUX if they want)
10 GS sounds like alot but if you go into GOTHAM they have like 2 or 3 tubes that add to 10Gs
Back to the toro part aswell.....10Gs in Toro is like 15-20 Sick Tubes
So please tell me how would if be harder to sell Roor when theres more of it than the toro
Im not ranking on roor at all i love there quality and glass but even GOTHAM dont even carry roor casue they said they do not get enogh "traffic".......for being the best glass gallery in the US....they dont get wnohg trafffic.....LOL w.e roors loss i guess cause they would fly in that place
Also i think itsw cause boodah dont want any of that shit in his gallery

EDIT: GOTHAM is now MOVING becasue of the recent law in suffol county to ban all sales of waterpipes or any glass made to hold water with
I would supect they move to oyster bay...mad land and plus is right on the water...heard them sayin some shit about that 2 who knows

And sry fo the huge rant =D just wanted to throw out my 2 cents

a friend of mine had a bunch of blank roor style beakers with the RooR label slapped on it and selling it at their price. pretty much identical to the GnOB's. people come in and see the RooR, and think they scoring some sweet glass. ahh.. dont you love "buyer beware"

Wow can someone say doushbag?....selling off fake roors and saying that there real is really shitty dude....i wouldent trust this guy

I've heard it's not illegal (correct me if wrong), but im basing this judgment on the fact a head shop about 4 hours away from me, Laughing Buddha in Miami, sells Roor.de and yes they are legit. So, i don't think they are illegal just cause laughin buddha is running a HUGE risk if they are by selling them, and i've been there a few times and the people there know their glass so, i don't think they would risk confiscation by police.

After reading this forum for a while I would rather just buy on here than ever try to scout out a shop that sells "legit" roor's....

[DCALLSTARR]

hehehe I have a place that stocks roor.de...so if you're really interested hit me up...and yes it's real german roors...ask many of the members on here who have purchased them...954zobkid, onsilverwings, gimpymoses, mastakush, bubbak, toob...many people have purchased german roors from me

i can also attest to this mans .de roor's! they are FOR REAL .de roor's no fakes, no reproductions, no replica's.. all authentic .de's!
