I've been smoking for about 7 years now. *knocks on wood* I have never: lost, broke, damaged in any way, or had stolen from me, any piece in my possesion. Don't get me wrong...I've had close calls. But I still have the first piece I bought!! (triple blown, nice little spoon). How has everyone else's luck/skill been?

I damaged the slide for my bong, not the bong itself though.

I've lost a couple metal bowls, one stone chillum got stolen and my last glass bowl...well, was a victim of my own carelessness/stupidity. First time smoking in a while and after a few bowls I was feeling pretty nice when I realized how cool my bowl looked when I tossed it in the air. You know what I mean, when you throw something just right and it has no spin and is just sort of coasting through the air as if it were not even moving but the entire world around it was...well after doing that a few times I missed the catch and it hit the armrest. That was ok since it was cushioned and the floor had carpet on it. Then I heard a shatter. It had bounced from the armrest onto the only thing in the room that would break it: my ceramic hashplate that was sitting on the floor a few feet away from the chair. Had it landed anywhere else it would have been fine...poor Buzz...

Now I leave the juggling to the trained professionals at the circus.

I dropped a huge glass pipe on my tile floor and it smashed.. and another smaller glass pipe broke somehow, but I have no idea how.. just found it broken in half.
One of my good friends bought me a sweet ass green sparkle glass pipe for my last birthday.. haven't broken it yet, and I hope I don't It's beautiful.

Yea...When I get my pics up...you guys can see...but I have a nice triple blown small spoon. It was my first glass piece I ever bought!! One night when coming down off some hallucinagenic (off topics), I had packed it, and put it in my lap for before bed time. When one of my friends showed back up at my house (mind you this was about 3am, and I didn't expect anyone back), I jumped up to see who was at my appt. and in doing so...launched my bowl (hard) across the room, into the metal oven door, and then to fall onto the tile. When it landed, it sounded like it broke into two pieces. I was sick to my stomach. When I went outside and told my friend what I just did, and he offered to come check it out for me. Reluctantly I came in, and saw it sitting there....not a mark on it...not even a chip!! And the real kicker?...IT WAS STILL FULLY PACKED!!!! lol. Just lucky I guess...

Oh man I can't even count. I am so sure that it's over seven though.

1. First piece broke because it fell out of the breast pocket while running
2. had a wood pipe, get confiscated by parents, was able to get it back, but broke like a month later.
3. Mrs. Parker, the second-longest pipe I've owned was blown off of an armrest by wind.
4. POS Glass bowl don't even know what happened to it but I was happy when it was gone.
5. DA SAVVAS BOWL gave it to my girlfriend who got arrested for having it on a later date.
6. An awesome bubbler that I had for a minute but sold when I never was able to "bond" with it.
7. A shitload of little glass chillums that just get lost and break easily.
8. Lily, sold it to it because it looked ugly. Got sold 2-3 times by different people until it finally broke.
9. Namaste, was pretty sweet but it broke in less than a week. Slippery night
10. The mini-bong was stolen by a crackhead friend before we realized he was a total crackhead.

I also had quite a few temporary cheap metal pipes that I'd use in between pipes breaking.

But now today...I've had the same pipe for over 8 months now. All I had to do was leave it at the house and smoke blunts when out of the house

My first bubbler I had to smash infront of a cop. It was VERY heady and I regret taking it outside to this day , I luckily still have the huge 'claw' that was on the sidecar sherlock bubbler.

I have then lost probably 2-3 glass spoons/hammers hiking or camping. I know a friend broke my favorite spoon of all time, fucker never even said sorry or paid me back, I also remember this one cool green snake like hammer I broke camping. Fell on this tiny tiny rock in a mossy forest, terrible luck.

RIP to all the nice glass out there!

every piece i've ever had got lost/sold/resold/stolen/broken.
my dad took a hammer to my PHX. I left home that day.
I had a 2 and a half foot pure glass pyrex beast with 2 percs built in and of course the glass on glass pyrex bowl and diffuser. set me back 300 bucks. about two months later, i was smoking out of it while under the influence of....other things....and these girls showed up and i smoked with them, until they tapped it at the wrong spot. the only reason they got away is because i couldnt get up. they offered to pay but they had showed up there in a car that was less than 300 dollars. i knew it was fucked. i managed to duct tape it together and continued to use it, until a fat kid came and broke it completely. I got a similar, smaller one from a headshop at a 75% discount because it had a little surface crack. then a deadbeat stole it and hid it in his attic and by the time i tracked it down his parents had trashed it. now the only piece i own is acrylic, and has a carb. BOOOO

Hey Allday Everyday ...don't knock the acrylic w/ the carb. I love mine!! And I take it out, when dealing w/ people idk, or trust. That way it will never get messed up. Check out in the water pipes forum, check the pictures sticky post, and look at my bong collection. The acrylic is my "old reliable." Recently...that's all I've really been dying to smoke out of!!

My first bowl I bought used. Double blown, but very small. My friend was scraping it and the carb actually broke off. I was like...I need a new one anyway. Later I was scraping the rest of the resin out over my sink and it slipped and shattered into more pieces than I was willing to count.
My second glass piece lasted me from January until last month, but since about June there had been a major flaw; it had a metal screen in it due to the fact that there was a hole in the bowlhead that was almost HALF the size of it! I was scraping it (it was double blown, very nice piece) and somehow it just...broke off. I still used it for months after, but it was kinda lame.
The one I have now is great, looks triple blown, should last me a while.
