I can't speak for the entire catalog but a "name" will never mean anything on fasttech.

However a "brand" usually does. For example (as correctly mentioned above), IGO-W is a clone. IF they were selling UD IGO-W, that would be different.

Same with Kanger, Nitecore, Panasonic, joyetech, Innokin, etc.etc. If it says it is, it will be.

The eVic was $68.99 until joyetech stepped in. Now it's $99.

I have bought all kinds of things, not many e-cig related. Every last item has been genuine, apart from a Samsung mobile phone cover, which said "for Samsung". You have to be "with it".... :)

That is what we call a counterfeit. No, it's not the real deal.

When a clone crosses the line and attempts to use the markings of the real McCoy, it is no longer a clone and enters the realm of counterfeits.

Just bear in mind, you will not be able to sell that item in the classifieds if you don't like it.

Another stupid question. What exactly is a Dripping Atomizer and what does it do?

Thanks!

You can't believe what Fasttech titles say, this is just one example:

$6.41 IGO-W Stainless Steel Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer - silver / 1.6ohm / adjustable resistance / double heating wires at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

This is sold as an Igo-W, it is not an Igo-W.

IGO-W - Triangle Vape LLC

Is an Igo-W, has the name on the top cap and has 2 air holes.

It's 1/2 the price of the real Igo-W but it's not an Igo-W. Does it work as good or better? No idea i have a real Igo-W. If your OCD about names then don't buy something from Fasttech that is 1/2 or price or more than what you can get it on line for.

$98.49 Joyetech eVic Mod / E-Cigarette Battery Compartment Kit - 1*18650 battery & US USB charger included / silver / US plug at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Joyetech eVic Starter Kit | Joye e-Vic Ecig APV

That is a REAL Evic, notice the price difference. You can feel confident that this is a real as advertised product.

With some research and a computer you can figure out which is real and which is a clone. Like others say, some clones are just as good if not better than the original.
