It took about 5 days for the pipe to be delivered. I gotta say I love everything about it. It looks great, freezes solid in an hour, makes smoking a total pleasure. Super huge and totally cool tokes. No coughing at all when you get used to taking a hit. The box it came in is really awesome and protects the pipe while in the freezer. I put the pipe in its box and the box in a Ziploc bag. I am 100% happy with my purchase!
