The FAB List · 2026
Finding the right cannabis gear doesn’t need to feel like a gamble.
Hello my Friendly Aussie Buds, Entoza here. Today we’re talking about the best shops in the country to purchase your bongs, dab rigs, vapes, and all your other cannabis accessories.
We’re officially halfway through 2026, and it’s been five years since Friendly Aussie Buds dropped their last top list. A lot has changed since then. The Aussie 420 scene has evolved, the 710 community has stepped out of the underground, and what we actually want on our coffee tables has shifted. The days of settling for cheap, machine-made glass are fading.
Today, it’s all about “heady” hand-crafted glass, perfectly functional recycler rigs, and endgame dry herb setups like Ball Vapes.
Because the landscape is so different now, finding a reliable shop that stocks the right gear matters more than ever.
This list ranks the top five online retailers leading the Aussie scene in 2026, breaking down exactly what they specialise in, why they deserve your business, and who they are best for.
Some of Australia’s best online smoke shops in 2026 are A Friend Indeed (best all-rounder), OzBongs (biggest premium glass range), Vices Oz (best for ball vapes and TEDs), We Are Lux (best boutique and lifestyle gear) and The Green Box (best combustion-free and ARTG-listed hardware). All five ship discreetly Australia-wide.

A Friend Indeed: Best All-Rounder (Melbourne)


A Friend Indeed is a true community staple, run by an enthusiast himself whose passion really shows. With the recent addition of glass sculpting classes and community nights with Empirical Glass, this is a store to support.
Based out of Melbourne, AFI has positioned itself as a one-stop shop, catering to every corner of the cannabis community.
Here you can find everything you need, from a Custom Roor Tube, to a Ceramic Cock Bong (Perfect gift btw). From a starter quartz banger, right up to a ~$700 high end quartz control tower. From a brass conepiece to an Australian made Empirical Glass fully worked 4-hole slide.
But they don’t just stock glass. AFI stocks a comprehensive range of rolling accessories. Stocking everything you need; whether it be premium King Palm rolling papers, trays or RipTip joint tips, they have it.
Finally, they round out their range by appealing heavily to the thermal extraction crowd. Keeping the DynaVap and Tempest ranges on hand alongside induction heaters and all the spare parts you could need.
If you want highly curated gear, fast and discreet shipping, or if you just want to drop into your local Rowville bong store, A Friend Indeed is absolutely worth your support.
OzBongs: Biggest Premium Range (Coffs Harbour)


These guys didn’t just open a store and call it a day; they practically started the Australian glass scene.
Founded way back in 2010 and run by Paul and Nicole out of Coffs Harbour, OzBongs is a true Australian cannabis community icon.
OzBongs were one of the first, if not the first, to import premium high end glass like EHLE and Sovereignty into the country, direct from the source.
They also worked hard to ensure just about every bong in Australia came through them. Setting up Ozism, a wholesaler, they started supplying your local smoke shop with their Agung and Phoenix Glass pieces, which is where we all got started.
Fast forward to 2026, and OzBongs is still dominating the market by having the strongest connections with international suppliers in the country, giving them a range no one can really match.
Whether you’re after a $2500 Sovereignty FA Pint Pillar or just a basic Agung daily driver, this is the place. If you want fast shipping, solid customer service, and to support a true pioneer of the scene, hit up OzBongs.
Vices Oz: Best for Ball Vapes & TEDs (In-House Designed)


Owned by the man himself, Beedles, Vices OZ is truly taking Aussie design around the globe.
Beede doesn’t just import TEDs; he has designed, and continues to develop, his own entire range. The innovation in his gear, which includes some world first’s, has recently received international recognition, taking him and the team to Mary Jane Berlin 2026, which is just awesome to see.
His range includes the Adaptaball, an in-house designed and tested Ball Vape; the Clearly (also available in a kit), the world’s first All-Quartz Baller Head; the recently updated JoyStick, a ball vape inspired, portable and battery-free TED; and The Coma, the world’s biggest ball vape.
But if you follow Beedles and Vices online, you know they have a lot more in the pipeline.
With one of the craziest personal glass collections in the country, Beedles knows there is no point selling high end TEDs without also stocking the glass to match.
Vices stocks some of the headiest pieces on the market, frequently dropping functional art from renowned artists like Warwick Glass and Dohn Joe.
While they carry some heavy hitters in the glass blowing world, Vices is also a great place to build out your first dab station. Vices stocks some great functional rigs that won’t break the bank, and pair that with a reliable banger so you can learn without spending hundreds on a single piece of quartz.
Overall, if you’re looking for an innovative TED, high end rig, or just an entry level dab set-up, Vices Oz is a great place to shop.
We Are Lux: Best Boutique & Lifestyle Gear (Sydney)


Located right near Bondi Junction in Sydney, We Are Lux isn’t just your standard headshop.
Trading since 2015, they’ve built a legitimate 420 lifestyle boutique, and the team here knows exactly what they are doing.
If you’re after premium cannabis equipment, or high-end lifestyle gear, this is your spot.
Here you can find some reasonably heavy hitters, stocking brands like Grav, Flower Mill, and Milkyway.
Every single piece of gear is handpicked and reviewed by in-house legend LadyLux420, so you know it’s been put through its paces before it even hits the shelf.
They don’t just stock glass and vapes. We Are Lux delivers on high-end lifestyle accessories, sleek tabletop pieces, and everything you need to build out a refined, aesthetic setup.
If you want boutique gear, fast and discreet shipping, or if you just want to drop into their physical store to pat the shop dog, We Are Lux is absolutely worth checking out.
The Green Box: Best Combustion-Free & Medical Hardware (Sydney)


Rounding out our list is The Green Box, a dedicated store catering heavily to the medical cannabis, thermal extraction, and concentrate crowd.
Finding high-quality, ARTG-listed gear locally can still be tricky, but The Green Box offers a reliable solution.
They are a solid destination for ARTG-listed vaporisers, specialising heavily in gear for the modern medical patient.
Here you can find everything you need for clean, combustion-free consumption.
They stock a massive range of elite TEDs, catering beautifully to the medical community by keeping the Storz & Bickel Mighty+ Medic and Volcano Medic 2 on hand alongside dosing capsules and spare parts. These are supplied as medical devices, and the right supply pathway can depend on your prescription, so check what applies to you.
The Green Box also stocks a great range of 510 thread batteries, DIY extraction tools, and concentrate pens to cover all your bases.
Overall, if you are looking to invest in a premium medical vaporizer, or just want legitimate, ARTG-listed gear paired with solid customer service, The Green Box is a great place to shop.
Final Words
Whether you’re a medical patient seeking ARTG-listed reliability, a collector hunting for the next heady piece of glass, or just someone looking for a dependable daily driver, the Australian landscape has never been stronger.
These five retailers are curating the future of the 710 and 420 community down under.
Support local, explore their unique selections, and find the gear that fits your lifestyle.

For most people, A Friend Indeed is the best all-rounder thanks to its curated range across glass, rolling gear and vaporisers. OzBongs has the biggest premium and high-end range, Vices Oz is the pick for ball vapes and TEDs, and The Green Box covers combustion-free and medical-grade ARTG listed hardware.
Is it legal to buy bongs online in Australia?
Bongs and water pipes are sold legally as smoking accessories across most of Australia, but the laws vary by state and territory. Check your local rules before ordering. Every shop on this list ships within Australia.
Where can I buy a ball vape or TED in Australia?
Vices Oz designs and sells its own ball vapes (the Adaptaball and The Coma) and TEDs. A Friend Indeed and The Green Box also stock thermal extraction gear and dry herb vaporisers.
Can I buy an ARTG-listed medical vaporiser without a prescription?
Medical-grade vaporisers like the Volcano Medic 2 (ARTG 319028) and the Mighty+ Medic are supplied as therapeutic devices. Whether you need a prescription can depend on the device and the supply pathway, including the Special Access Scheme (SAS) and Authorised Prescriber pathways, so check with the retailer and your prescriber. This article is about hardware, not medical advice.
Do these shops ship discreetly?
Yes. All five ship discreetly Australia-wide in plain packaging. Note that vaporiser shipping was affected by Australia’s 2024 vaping reforms, and some devices can’t be shipped to certain states (for example, some retailers won’t ship dry herb vapes to South Australia), so confirm at checkout.
Do any of these shops have physical stores?
A few do. A Friend Indeed has a store in Rowville, Melbourne, We Are Lux runs a shopfront near Bondi Junction in Sydney, and OzBongs operates it’s distribution out of Coffs Harbour.
How we chose
Friendly Aussie Buds is an independent cannabis-culture platform, not a retailer. We don’t sell gear, and this isn’t a paid list. FAB’s editorial runs independent of our sponsors, who get zero say in what we cover. These picks come from years inside the Australian community: each shop’s reputation with growers and heads, the quality and range of what they stock, and how they look after customers.
