| - Scammers and hustlers is what the people running this shop were when I went. I went a few months ago to get tobacco and coals and out of curiosity, I asked how much one of the hookahs were. In all honesty, I already knew the hookah was 45-60$, but I was in shock when he tried to tell me the hookah was over $150. I said no thanks and he told me if I held it I would understand because it's made out of "real crystal". I held it, and still wasn't convinced it was worth what he wanted to charge. But it's his store, so fine.
About two months later, I went in again and a young person was working the counter. I went in to get tobacco and coals, and again, out of curiosity, I asked how much the same exact hookah cost and he said "all of those size are about 65$" and I said okay what about the small ones and he said "those are like $45". I said alright cool thank you and was on my way out. The older man who was there the first time came out the back and the boy asked him if he knew the price on the hookahs we were talking about. He tells me the hookah was $160. I said well he just told me its 65$ so no thanks, have a nice day. He brought the hookah over to me and tried to get me to hold it again pleading that it's "real crystal". I insisted that I was okay with not being ripped off and didn't care to hold the hookah. He kept insisting that I hold it and shouted as I was trying to leave about his real crystal rip off. I told him that I will
gladly go hold the same 65$ hookah at any other smoke shop nearby where I don't have to get scammed and lied to.
Needless to say, I will not be back at this shop.
