Well I started vaping 12/12/11 and pretty much have been ordering kits, juice and several misc stuff. I think I'm scared of the fda stuff so I feel i need to stock up. Im sure there are ppl that have spent way more but I've just been ordering like crazy. I only order what I feel are deals and from vendors I've done research on.

Anyway I just want to know if any of you fellow vapers have consistently been ordering or if I have an addiction/obsession to ordering all this dope stuff?!

Also my baby sis has a similar problem with groupon, rue-lala and livingsocial lol I also asked her today what she thought of the precise plus from SuperT and she was like "cant you just be happy with one"? I just laughed.. Any input would be appreciated. I hope i posted this in the right section, forgive me if I did ecf.


:blink:

Your definitely not the only one. I'm sure you notice threads like, "Picture of your setup" (think I got that right). Anyways, a lot of people constantly order new mods or gear to try out. I've slowed down this month but, for 7 months straight. I was buying mods and a LOT of cartos, atomizers, and juice.

Have a funny feeling my collection is going to grow in the upcoming years. I actually know I have a problem but have no way of stopping myself LOL It's alright though. As long as I don't smoke cigs then I'll be ok. The Precise + or the whole Precise lineup is fairly popular on the ECF. It'll be a good addition to your stash.

Welcome to vaping and the ECF! Alas, many of us share the same story of going crazy when first starting out. I have about 60 bottles of every flavor that sounded good to me. Some worked, some didn't.

I looked at the buying as a journey. I started with the eGo-T's, and tried various carto and atty combinations. Combine that with trying to find an all-day vape, and it adds up quickly. After a couple of months, I settled in nicely with my eGo batteries, ditching the tanks and replacing them with the CCV Resurrector and Boge 2.0 cartos. As I'm sure you've noticed, everyone has an opinion on their favorite vaping approach. That's the experience - enjoy it while you find yours.

You will likely fall into one of two categories. You'll find a setup that you enjoy and will settle down with a standard PV configuration and juice, or your experience will evolve into a hobby. The hobbiest enjoys vaping, and all things vaping, and will continually try (and buy) new juices, PVs, mods, etc. Nothing wrong with that, regardless of the direction you take.

If you settle down into a consistent device and a few favorite juices, your costs should stabilize, as you'll realize your consumption rate for juice, cartos, and replacement parts.

Again, welcome to ECF, and enjoy the journey!

No problems bro. That's a good amount of stuff from what you've described. Probably gonna need something bigger in the future since I'm sure your gonna be buying more stuff. This is an OLD picture of what I used to use to house all of my juice and cartos in:

i too had just started using ecigs. been 3 weeks into it and ive already made 2 orders. the initial order for my first 510 set, cartoz and eliq. the second for more cartoz and another eliq. i think next week i might order eliq base w/ nic and different flavorings because im not happy with what ive tasted so far. what im gettin from what ive read of other peoples experiences is that it could get expensive when starting out because people tend to try everything in the market to find what is best for them.

Yeah I couldn't agree more. I have atleast one of the most popular starter kits and box mods, pass thru bottom feeder vv and such.. Im ready for the PrecisePlus from SuperT. Its so clean looking! Prov and Darwin are ill but I have a soft spot for that precise for some reason. Prolly bc imma car guy and there car guys too

LOL thanks, that pic was taking my 3rd month vaping. Reo's are what kept me off of cigs and so, I'm pretty loyal to them. Best bottom feeder out there IMO I've heard some good things about the REV V2 from some people. Seems like a good gravity feeder.
Yea from what Ive heard thats exactly how it works best when you "figure it out" I got it like 2 weeks ago and haven't juiced it up. Only tested how it vaped on a boge 2ohm carto. Hit pretty good. I really wanted the v2.1 but I noticed it on vaporgalaxy on clearance and I used a coupon. The funny thing is noticed the 2.1 on another site like an hour later and was like ahhhhhhh haha. My battery on the v2 is the 550mah which was marked 650mah from the factory so ah well. No 1400mah unfort =) but i figured I could use it to travel. They are pretty much identical only difference is battery life. I will look into a Reo since you recommend them. I love the brushed metal and the colors they have are vibrant and have that Modern Arcitect look =)
