This^^^. Let's see those who buy clones try and call or PM/email China for support or send them in for a Spa Day for TLC or upgrades. They also won't get this super supportive and helpful community either.

Good point. I should've mentioned it.

SENDING something BACK to China is more Hell on Earth than RECEIVING it. They stop shipments in and out of their country to inspect them. This adds another 2 weeks of delay in flight. They have to look for Battery powered devices because they fear explosions during flight. IF they find batteries, they pull that package. You may, or may not get it. Who knows.

Some companies in the US have initiated a similar stance, but with Aerosol cans. They fear products could explode during the flight. For example, IF you purchase this aerosol can from ProtectaClear, you HAVE to pay for Ground Shipping ONLY.

My point: Ordering CCS (Cheap China Sh#t) ....just ain't worth the hassle.

Yes CCS as well as many other US imitations. Another example is R.E.O's bottom fed REOMIZER 9.0. it's the Vulcan Vector bottom fed. The quality of the pin and insulation and drill holes and execution is second to none. There are others bottom feeding atties and the quality does not come close to a REO. Rob continues to put out high quality whatever he builds.

The Modfather (Robert E O'neil) put bottom feeders on the map, and Patented his product in Feb 2010.

Unless you listened to the guy I talked to the other week tell it. When asked what I was vaping on, I told him a Reo. Looked kind of blankly and I said it's a bottom feeder. He said and I quote "yeah those things didn't really catch on when they came over from Europe a couple of years ago..."

I just turned around and walked away. Just left him standing there. I couldn't even deal!

No. Cal.
Im doubting that the motivation of the FB poster was to increase visibility, sales, and community involvement in regards to Reos, but I think he accomplished it.

(Hey Rob! Might you be posting on FB under a silly alias rather than picking blackberries??? Tee hee).

I could say ditto to most everything said here. Throughout my vaping career, I have always purchased authentics (mostly U.S. made) and am extra proud to be a Reonaut.

I could go on and on but I'm needing to visit the Reos site to look at the Blue Metallic that I'm saving up for (my form of night time porn).

Reminds me of something I read the other day, and I do quote::

"It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubt."

Europe? Lmao!

Tell me about it. I had been listening to him talk to a couple of other people for about 10 minutes before he spoke to me. (We were outside in the smoking section at a training center) he was one of those smug "know it alls". Ugh!
