Looking to buy large lots of glass pipes

Shouldn't this be posted to rec.meds.badforyou ?

gona get yourself busted!!!

Get myself busted eh? I have a tobacco license and a reseller license to do business in CT. I sell glass pipes and water pipes for tobacco use only. If you check the DEA website you would see that I'm well within the law. I've even gone as far as to consult lawyers on the issue.

I'm still looking for producers of quality glass pipes and water pipes. Please contact me at snipped-for-privacy@aol.com .

I guess you didn't notice last year when Ashcroft announced the big nation wide bust of bong distributors. ( not the manufactures)

The most notable being Chong (of Cheech and Chong) In fact he just got out of jail last week!. If I'm not mistaken, they were busted for selling bongs over the internet and crossing state lines.

Maybe you should hire a couple more lawyers...just in case.

A rose by any other name....???

You're absolutely right bongs are illegal and on the list of items on the DEA website that are paraphernalia. However, I do not sell bongs. Thanks all for your concern about the legality of my business.

okay so you might win your case after what; confiscation of all your shop, big layers fee's and several months in jail, you get off.

then what? you are awarded fur lined pisspot award!!

So, tobacco is good for you? Like I said - rec.meds.badforyou

Actually, yes. A rose by any other name may not be illegal. Here in my home town, it is illegal to sell a "bong" but it is legal to sell a "carburated water pipe." Technically, they are the same thing, but the law is written to the letter, not the spirit.

Yes, it's a case of semantics, but such is the case.

And WHO determines the name? Surely not that over exuberant DEA agent?

I got news, if "the boys" want you, they will find a way to get you.

Believe it or not, it's the retailer that sets the name. Example: I once had a friend walk into a store and said, "I'd like to look at that bong, please." Retailer's response: "I'm sorry, sir, we don't sell bongs here. I'm afraid you'll have to leave now." He did so, walked back in, and said, "I'd like to look at that water pipe, please." Retailer's response: "Certainly, sir, I'd be glad to help you."

Yes, they have made the NAME "bong" illegal, but NOT the product! As long as there is the possibility the item can be used for smoking some LEGAL substance, such as tobacco or herbal blends, then only the NAME "bong" is illegal. Evidence all the "smoke shops" here in Sandy Eggo! They ALL sell a large variety of glassware used for smoking, but as long as they can be used for tobacco they are legal.
