We've been working hard for a while now on what was supposed to be a glorious release of our first copyright product turned into a discounted factory blemished product. While this LuDog original recycler functions fine, it has factory blemishes. Most won't even notice, but I don't feel right charging $75 USD for something that isn't what I feel is up to our standards. So, with free shipping and taxes, I'm only asking $45 rather than the original $75. I make my money back, and you get a one hitter quitter, recycling bong water pipe. I make nothing off this, but it allows me to bring you better products (yes, we changed manufacturers and plan to bring this product back and another one... more details to come ). As always, thanks for your support while we continue to bring you great products and future business development!
