The reason I ask is I'm building an online store and some glass sex toy people asked me about it, could be a huge seller, giving all the hype right now about legalizing marijuana.
I have some nice glass myself, I have probably the biggest bubbler anyone has ever seen.
I see glass pipe sites that ship online, but that doesn't mean it's legal, so has anyone looked into this, before I sell anything, I will get my lawyer to look up everything.

Tommy wasn't even selling them, they just were using his name for marketing. They got popped because they sold to undercover (after being begged and hounded by them) and shipped one to Pennsylvania, where apparently owning a piece of glass is a crime. I still believe the whole thing was entrapment, but Tommy just plain got fucked. He was scapegoated for it because they were using his name.
Definitely be careful. It's not just where you operate, but also where you sell and ship.
