This is all tongue in cheek, but here's how it usually goes...
Stages leading to Vaping Nirvana:
1) Discover vaping, probably with a cigalike
2) Chase the ultimate vape, upgrade to ego, etc.
3) Discover dripping, such flavor!
4) (somewhere along in here, we realize we're spending as much on vaping as we did on cigarettes, but hey, we're not smoking, right?)
5) Hear about REOs, but think, "Nah, it looks like a box for crying out loud"
6) Continue to chase better vape, increasingly aware of the costs. And that REO thing keeps popping up here and there.
7) Break down and finally HAVE to know what all the talk is about and buy a REO....but only 1
8) Receive REO, BAM! Finally, it doesn't get any better than this.
8.5) Man, I need to have a backup for this thing, what if I lose it?
9) Notice all the talk about rebuilding, order an RM2 (again, BAM! doesn't get any better than this, and easy. And cheap.)
9.5) Hook girlfriend/wife/significant other almost accidentally. "I said you could TRY it, not HAVE it".
10) DIY? I wonder what all the fuss is about? Besides, I'm not spending like I used to, in fact, I'm actually saving money.
11) Dang shame all this other gear is just laying around unused, hmmm, maybe I can fund more REOs if I put them in the classies.
12) Look at that! I haven't bought anything for 3 months, say, maybe I'll try out one of those new rebuildables and see what all the fuss is about....or maybe not
