Amazon?? Trustworthy?

[tater_salad]

I could have sworn that no one was selling e-cig stuff on amazon when I first started a few months ago, I was really interested in finding stuff through them because at the time I had prime as well as some gift certs that could have helped. I just figured it was against their terms to sell e-cig stuff.

Here's an example of a vivi Nova being sold from amazon.com, it looks like the prices are pretty high, but has anoyone had any experience in dealing with e-cig stuff from amazon?

Looks like a fake.

Man: Vivi
Real man: Smoktech

Don't buy it.

Even though it's sold through Amazon, the shipping and handling is handled by a third-party vendor. While I've had lots of great experienced with third-party vendors on Amazon, the service isn't as good as buying directly from Amazon itself.

i would say that if you have a gift card for amazon, maybe....
that is what my work gives out for the C-mas bonus, so even if it's a fake, i guess meh.
oh, and atleast it seems that the seller knows about e-cigs lol

I find the prices on Amazon to be higher than nearly every vendor out there. (I've never had a bad transaction going through Amazon btw)

But that box picture on the left IS an official Vivi Nova box. On the right ... not so much. Unless its the old version or something. I don't think the new Vivi's are coming with one thick wick are they?

Price is jacked up because of that drip tip i bet.

Another reason why I wonder if it's an official. Unless they're "remixing" the original kit. Kinda weird.

look at the atomizer head top right, you can see it has the same raised center post/spike that most of the knockoffs got.
topcap/mouthpiece kinda look like one piece.

I thought the official box says Vision Vivi Nova, or is that just the gotvapes version?

The 2.8 head comes with one thick wick, but not the other 2. (Aside from the other things already pointed out, just thought I would answer your question. )

Amazon is normally awesome! I don't ever deal with storefronts though.
Been shopping with them since they started up
I've had Amazon Prime since it came out.
Amazon is trustworthy!
Only shop for things sold by Amazon.
If you really want a ViVi Nova
$11 S/F

The clones I see say Vivi Nova ... but they don't have the same font. More specifically ... the red "flares" on the V if you will. The full Vision Vivi Nova was on the side of the box on my official mini. And again, the first V has the red "flares". (Back of box also has smoke/vapor design)

Having said that, its possible that clones are now completely copying the logo.

I found the drip tip - says vivi, but not vision: 3.5ml Vivi Nova clearomizer kit for 510 ego series battery [vivi] - $6.00 : www.health007.net

 

[graybuck]

All the ViVi Novas I have show vapor on the back of the box and have a black drip tip.

 

[tater_salad]

I wasn't planning on buying one.. it was just an example.. and pretty much shows that I shouldn't trust these guys on amazon.. I think the 5 star distributors or whatever is selling most of the E-cig related stuff on amazon.

I was actually thinking of grabbing another backup ego battery from amazon with my gift card but I think I'll just stay away for now.

Mostly I'm just surprised to see that there is e-cig related stuff on amazon and that it's not blocked by their T&C seeing as paypal and other processor / outlets have said no.

Check the vendor and see if you can deal with them directly (Cuz if fedex loses your package they will not help at all due to Amazon s policy states they are the customer not you so there for anything happens while in transit your on the crap end of the stick and get your money back in 7 days maybe)

Edit: forgot to say vaporkings has them for 7 bucks right now the mini that it plus just do an online search and the have a 10% off code. Picked up two with two extra heads for 22 bucks shipped.
