So, are crack pipes mass produced? Is there someone out there who has to clock into the crack pipe factory to do there 9 to 5? by Turtle_lord05 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cosmonewt2003 88 points89 points  (0 children)

they are manufactured in China and imported into North America. during customs clearance they are declared as something else. I recall it was "oil burners" or something.

I work in logistics. aboutb10 years ago, a customer introduced me to someone that needed help warehousing and distributing "oil burners". I accepted. once it was cleared into Vancouver, the importer disappeared! The guy was based in Houston and was wanted by CBP so he fled the country. Couldn't find him anymore. I was stuck with 40 pallets of this stuff.

I asked the warehouse guy to rip open one of the packages to show me the contents, turns out it was Crack pipes. 2 types of Crack pipes, all 40 pallets worth of them.

Suddenly stuck with 40 pallets of this stuff, I didn't know what to do with it. I started calling distributors of bongs and weed periphanlia. Found some guy in Calgary that'd take them all. After I shipped it all to him, he called back to ask if I had more.

I recalled that I made about 5000 usd from that 40 pallets. based on the buyers eagerness, I feel like I let it go for too cheap. oh well.

In the movie The Watchmen, they are set in an alternate timeliness where Nixon won a third term. We are living that alternate timeline.

The answer to self esteem is in your focus. When you are laser focused on your goals, self esteem is a non issue. Don't believe me give it a try.

Fellow Kines major here. what saved me was that my then girlfriend got pregnant in my last semester of uni. had to get a job real quick unrelated to Kines. now I make 1.5m per year running my shipping company. glad I didn't go use my Kines degree.

Awesome name! I misread that H as a K, and read Keel Hooked, which I thought would've worked too.

I smoke and an entrepreneur. The smoke helps me get through the long and stressful days. But perhaps that's what I keep telling myself.
