About a year ago I bought my first Provari. A used black V2 with extension cap. I received it on October 24, 2014. Then, in January I picked up a used blue V2. So, one and a back-up. Perfect, right? What else could a person need?

Well, by the end of March I had also bought a Satin Silver Mini with extension tube and a Bronze Mini with extension cap. Both used, of course.

OK. That was it! Finished! And, I've stuck to it for many months.

But, as I look around at clearance sales, doing a little vapocalypse shopping, I see VV mods for $10 and mech mods for $4 to $15. And, I look at the Provari that happens to be in my hand at the time and think, "Why? Why bother with something that isn't going to last?"

Vapocalypse shopping is about getting things that will last for 10 or 20 years. Not about getting a mod just to say you have it.

So, when a sanded 2.5 showed up in the classies recently, I snatched it. It's quite unique looking. The sanding gives it a nice look, the personal touch.

Then I saw a purple V2 in the classies. Purple! Number 6 should be here by the end of the week. OMG, six!!!

And, ya know, I don't even feel guilty. What could be a better investment than a Provari? That and nicotine, of course.

I'll be back later this week with pictures!

LOL, I know this song all too well :D Then the P3 came out, and occasionally a ProVari would show up for about the price of a carton of cigs, so I'd grab it. Then a bundle would show up with a couple of them plus atties, and I'd grab it. What the heck, I haven't really been buying juice for over a year and a half, and re-building coils for my PT2's and using RTA/RDA's has been like vaping for free anyways...so I'd make an offer on one that wasn't moving...

Oh not me! Just spent my truck payment on Ti ProVaris and Kabuki tanks haha
Oh, so that's why your husband was grateful! Well, whoever's husband it was that chose the pink and let me have the purple, someone is getting a pink Provari for Christmas/birthday/whatever. Not a bad present!

Oooh! Ti Provaris and Kabuki tanks! Nice!

I think it's safe to say... nobody knows this addiction quite like I do...


And I am obsessed with getting more.... very specific ones, but more, none the less.
Yup. I think you're right. Yours is the master collection!

I wouldn't doubt that it's the most comprehensive... but there may be somebody out there with more as far as quantity. I'm not aware of it, but it could exist.

Number 6 has shipped. Waiting for it to show up on tracking.

Instead of calling them Satin Silver Mini, Bronze Mini, Black V2, Sanded 2.5, Blue V2, and Purple V2, maybe I should start giving them names. Hmmm.

Probably not. How could I ever decide?! Besides, my other PVs would get jealous.

Time to check tracking again.

That's what happens when you keep picking up strays.
