I decided to check this place out after reading all the rave reviews and have to say... either the people running this place are tooting their own horns on Citysearch (sadly, this wouldn't surprise me from what/who I encountered when I visited the store), or there really are this many under-informed Houstonians on Citysearch that believe a place like this one is legit. First of all, I realize that not every pipe in a smoke shop HAS to be made in the USA (even though I personally would prefer it was); however, if you are going to flat out lie to my face and tell me that some mass-produced import glass that isn’t worth the bowl I might load in it and was most likely blown in a sweat shop is ""high quality"" and is going to cost me close to fifty dollars… then, honestly, you can take that pipe and shove it. I don't know anything about all this E-Cig business (see below), but as far as actual smoke shops go... this is definitely not the place for anyone that is an honest smoker looking for well-made glass. Between the totally shady employees/owners that clearly seem to have an agenda (i.e., making money off of you and nothing more) to the plethora of t-shirts and belly button rings crowding the shop with tastelessness, this is definitely not the place for me and I would NEVER recommend it to anyone.
Pros: Broad selection... and that's about it.
Cons: Overpriced, Dishonest, Creepy-ish customer service
