P.S. the money is spent, it's water over the dam now, if it upsets you, what I have found works for me in such a situation, is to sell it, or give it away to someone else who might appreciate it for whatever it is. No sense in letting an innanimate object have any influence over your emotional state in any way, shape, or form...once it's gone from your possesion, it will no longer have any power to affect you.
My Axis Vapes M17 ended up costing north of $500 once I'd paid for shipping, UK import duty and sales tax.
If I'm not using it, it's a very pretty desk ornament. No regrets.

Hahahahahahaha@ENAUD
I suppose it will get easier when I stop buying things and let the savings make their mark. One day
I meant to say: me too! Absolutely. For sure by next Tuesday I'll be done.
Hahahahahahaha
I think the most expensive piece I ever bought was either a Procyon or a P3. I was an early purchaser for both of those.
On a related note, if it makes you feel better, the last time I added up what I've spent on gear (mechs, mods, atomizers, drip tips, coil, wick, wire, tools, caddies, racks, and stands) I was somewhere around the $5000 mark. And that was a few years ago...
I've posted this before. I smoked for thirty years and spent somewhere north of $30,000 on cigarettes and had nothing to show for it but yellowed fingers and a hacking cough. At least now I have shinies to look at.@ENAUD

For the first 2 years I was buying stuff at a furious pace. Part was fear of what deeming (which had not been released yet) would do to us but most of it was vaping was changing so fast back then. The changes were HUGE. Things like the first glass tank, Variable Wattage, rebuilding spent heads turning into the first rebuildable drippers and tank attys. I went down the rabbit hole many time trying to find the right vape for me in an industry that was really just beginning to find itself.@ENAUD

Year 3 I had pretty much found what worked for me so I went into full tilt stock up to last a lifetime because we were all pretty sure deeming would be fatal to the industry. Even so it was only certain things and only if they went on deep sale.
Year 4 I really have not bought all that much. Mostly filling in gaps in the stockup with sale from places throwing in the towel. The occasional special treat like the ALien 220. Once a month or so I pop into the local vape shop and buy something small, bottle of juice, pack of coils, that kind of thing. They are good people and in this small town they struggle to keep the doors open.
I really don't need much of anything at this point. I can pretty much vape for the rest of my life from what I have stockpiled. I have found what works for me so I don't even follow what is new and hot so much. Shinyitis mostly wore off a long time ago. Only things on my list are really that gadget for making clapton wire and more good bottom fed attys for my squonkers now that they are easy to find (used to be a real pain to find good sqounker attys).
Even so if I added up everything I probably spent $3000 over the 4 years and saved far more than that. I mean really how do you put a price on your own life?
I bought a Provari when it was reduced by 50% in a closing down sale and felt somewhat guilty at having to pay even half price (can't remember how much exactly but getting on for £100). About 6 months later my MIL had left me a little bit of money when she died and I treated myself to a Kabuki. I don't think I would have splashed out that much for a tank otherwise ! In any event I don't regret buying either of them
After a few egos I splurged and bought one of these...
I paid around $120.Canadian dollars for it.It was the most expensive piece of vape gear I've bought.
Nowadays I'm happy using my 40 dollar pico with a few 20 dollar Kayfun clones.

Yep the EGO-C tank system used the same ones and that is what I started with. They also clogged up in a heartbeat and were near impossible to rebuild or clean so you were replacing them constantly.
The most expensive RTA that I have purchased was an authentic SvoëMesto Kayfun Lite-Plus V2 back when they first came out. Purchased it from a German retailer.
I had nothing but problems with it (flooding and gurgling) no matter how it was wicked or how many times I replaced the o-rings .... I now buy cheap Chinese clones of the Kayfun Lite-Plus and have never had any more problems like I did with that authentic POS.
The authentic SvoëMesto wound up in the garbage can ... good riddance !
