The Mendo Pipe is much better and soon to reach collector status with the Protopipe at over $200.00. The Shaka Pipe is a cheap imitation with screws that strip, leaving the pipe useless. Daz in customer svs. at Punchbowl sent the wrong order 4 times, costing me $17.00 in postage.. After sending everything back, he still wanted to charge me for a pipe? I had to cancel with the credit card company. Unable to match pipe with case. Sent wrong case back, without pipe.
The Mendo Pipe is much better quality and soon to reach collector status along with my old Protopipe now worth $200+ by the origional owner. The Shaka is a cheap imitation with screws that strip, leaving the pipe useless. Daz in customer service sent me the wrong parts four (4) times for $17.00 in postage. Like they speak a different language.
