Should I buy this ?
I found this listing for a 24/29 cone and socket vacuum receiver adapter, However i've heard about cheap thin glass from china that'll break easily so
i want someones opinion on whether this piece of glassware is of good quality, it's from Israel and i noticed alot of other stuff he/she was selling
is quite cheap which makes me think it isn't very good quality glassware.

What do you guys think?
The reason why i ask is because i can't find any other vacuum adapters of that size for that price.

Reading the seller's feedback before deciding might be an idea!
The pictured adapter looks good, though . . .

When it comes to buying glassware, the quality of adapters and the like isn't the most important thing - but when buying flasks, going for a quality
brand is more important.

His feedback isn't even bad if that's what you meant  , and seeing as it won't be
subjected to heat or any harsh conditions it should be ok, my main concern is whether it'll implode when applying a vacuum

If your heating it wouldn't you want thin glass? I thought that thick glass doesnt like being heated. I don't own any thick glass flasks for that
reason.

Well, why would you want to heat a vacuum adapter..?
