speaking from the point of view of a learning glass blower myself, a lot of the shit that is passed off as good bongs are shit.

if it doesn't have a diffused downstem, don't get it. making diffusion holes takes 2 minutes at most, and it improves the quality of the smoke by 500%. if you have a lot to spend get a toro or an elevate bong. an inline bong will blow your mind if you can find one, but they are relatively rare. my advice would be to find an aesthetically appealing bong with a diffused downstem and just get high lol. once you've hit a diffused, you'll never go back.

a diffused downstem is a female part to the bowlpiece (the part that actually goes into the water, that the slide goes in and out of) and instead of having one large hole at the end, it has that hole, and before that, it has little holes along the sides. sometimes it doesn't have the hole on the end, but in my experience it is helpful to suck ash through instead of cloggin the small holes. The concept is that the smoke will travel through the water in many small bubbles instead of one large bubble, therefore filtering and cooling more effectively.

here is a pic:

notice how there are little elevated rings around the holes? this shows that they are blown. I am not 100 percent sure, but i'm almost certain that the slitted diffused downstems are cut using lasers. there is no way you can blow a straight line opening in glass.

one's in euros and one is in dollars. lol and it's like a difference in figures of like 30, not 143. but regardless of that, if you factor in the exchange rates, i'm sure they would be close.
