    Shipping Surcharge and Discount Errors:


    If your discount appears incorrect it may be for one of the following reasons:
    • Hookah-life.com is not like a regular retail hookah store, we are more like a marketplace where you can purchase products from all of the biggest vendors. Your cart includes items which would normally have to be purchased from multiple vendors and the $5 charge you see is a shipping surcharge.

      Its just as if you had purchased from separate vendors, except your only paying an additional $5 in shipping, which is less than you would pay had you gone the conventional route of shopping separate stores. We do not apply the surcharge if your items can be shipped from a single vendor, which our system determines automatically in your shopping cart.

      Common products you may have ordered that will include a shipping surcharge: Sahara Smoke hookah, Sahara Smoke hookah accessories, Build a hookah, Hookah Hookah shisha, Hookah Freak shisha, Black Label herbal shisha, Ayam Zaman shisha or Fantasia Shisha in addition to any products from our regular inventory. If you have more questions or concerns please contact us anytime.

    • You have entered an incorrect discount code.

    If your issue is No. 1, then we apply a $5.00 Shipping Surcharge for the domestic U.S. and tiered Surcharges for international orders which include* the above listed products and any other products from our site. If your order can be shipped from a single vendor then a Shipping Surcharge will NOT be assessed. If your order qualifies for free shipping a $5 surcharge may still be assessed depending on the items in your cart.

    If your issue is No. 2, then the discount/coupon code you have entered is either incorrect or no longer valid. Please contact us to verify.
    *Not limited to those products listed above. Subject to availability. Hookah Life, Inc. reserves the right to change its terms and policies at any time.
