This. It's the consumable that's most likely to become restricted and difficult to obtain.
I completely agree....i have a litre of 200 and .5 litre of 100 in the freezer and still don't feel entirely happy...;)

I stocked up through FT recently and I am quite sure I will be stocking up some more. After Christmas, I plan to actually give gifts this year. Amazon gift cards, but hey it's the lack of thought that counts. :lol::lol:

Not my older brother but I hate him. I actually would not know where to send said gift card but well, you know.

There's a big difference between old-school LEDs and OLEDs. I wouldn't worry much about the former; the have a track record going back many decades.

So, with a small stable of Provaris, JACs, Xvos, Daggers, SWAGs, plus a few other goodies, I don't need to worry about grabbing a Noisy Cricket II (or seven)?

Thinking....

Dayum you people. ;)

Given you location, I suppose you're already experiencing restrictions that make it difficult to obtain more?

What you currently have would last me about 10 years, which is indeed not enough to feel comfortable.

At this point for me it really isn’t about stocking up. After 9.5 years of vaping I’m sure I have enough hardware on hand to last two lifetimes. I do however allow myself at least a couple new things each month. I probably should have more nic on hand but I’m comfortable with what I have.
Wow congrats on 9.5 yrs of vaping!!!

Believe it or not, no. Not yet.

But Senators Murphy & DICK have made it clear that I'm NOT one of their favored sons. I expect the worst, and soon. The responding emails aren't even nice any more. I have one that I'll save forever. That twerp Murphy finally lost his cool with me. :evil: :thumbs: :banana::cool:

Outside of the newly formed LED concern, I think I'm set for life (including a bunch of kids, and a couple of local friends, who all use me as their personal store).

Ah heck...

@Katdarling - how many Noisy Crickets (II, of course!) ya want? :lol:

Yep...it is a bit difficult...First lot came from the USA and then I found a german company which has its base in the UK and they still do the 200. It gets shipped from UK to Germany and then internally posted to France...seems ok...but technically not i suppose.

I vape at 18mg so a bit high but yes it will last some time :)

    I sometimes find it hard to believe we are back to talking about stocking up and such. I have begun selling rather than acquiring only because at my age, I know I will never use all this stuff. If I were younger, I would be buying, buying, buying.

    I checked my dripper box, just a couple derringers and another tiny squonk rda in there. So just picked a few more to try :) I also got the squeeze Pico 2 to try, never used a squonker but I love to mix things up for variety, so figured at the sale price, why not :)

    I agree, if I was younger I would be acquiring a lot more, but since I am older, just have enough so I am very comfortable for what ever happens :) I am sure I can vape for ever with just what I have now.

    With any luck my fuchai squonk will arrive today. I know it comes with an rda but in case I don’t like it, I got out one of the new ammit mtl rdas and put the squonk pin in it. Glad now I picked up a few on that five dollar sale.

    I am well stocked on atomizers. nicotine and all. My last purchase was ten DNA 75 boards for my DNA squonkers should they bite the dust (I hope that I will still have the manual dexterity to actually do the soldiering). If all fails me, I have a very good mech squonker. At seventy-four, I will not be returning nor will I have the need to return to cigarettes.
    For my non-squonking non-rebuilding daughter, I have three JAC's, wire, rayon, some KF Primes with screws and stainless tank and a @vapdivrr how to youtube all in reserve.

    Well I was going over my 2018 buy list and it wasn't too bad, some rebuildable RTA's, a couple rebuildable RDA's, a squonk Pico, a Dicodes and Jac, 2 Orion's for new stuff and a couple carto tanks and cartos for stash of old school stuff. I am happy with it all :) It was a good vape year :thumbs:

    I have a few mechs left from back in the day but I’m not going to buy any. If it came down to it I can build a standard box mod. I did it before all this new electronic controls and such on mods. I think I still have parts around somewhere to make 14500 boxes.

    I have one. I hope I never have to use it but oh well....

    I think I realized that I was being kinda stupid. IF everything I have goes, it's not like there won't be something to vape out there. I'll just have to adjust.

    In the meantime, I'm going to start "resting" some of my better dupes, instead of keeping them active.

    Heck, if I make it to 90 (highly unlikely), spark me up a GD Marlboro (I'm joking).

    If I hit 90 I might smoke. LOL. Just you know, because I was 90.

    Everyone says (even my palm reader at work who is SO COOL, he is all like, "yeah, I read palms but I'm not psychic or anything, I just go by the book) the older I get, the happier I am going to be. Oh, also, and richer.

    I better get cracking on the money thing then, that or hope my mommy dies in a horrible plane accident and we get plane money plus all her investments. But, of COURSE I don't hope that so I better get busy.

    I have been known to say that I married once for idiocy, once for love.

    If I ever marry again it will be for money. A straight up business proposition because learning to live with someone is HORRIBLE no matter how much you love them or not. I bet it's easier with SERVANTS.

    LOL.

    My stocking up has gotten to the point I will purge a bit over the next few months. I've found which setups I really enjoy and which options I want to have in the future and am in good shape on those. I'll likely never use the kayfuns, Evic VTC's and Innokin Disrupters, so a little PIFing and classys, maybe some Ebay action will clear things up a bit. Even the eggrolls and subtanks are kind of redundant, but I'll stick with one or the other - those RBA heads make them so very flexible.

    The ProVari/Vivi Nova stash will be untouched. Life is good!

    LOL, @440BB, I have always been good to you (I think??)

    Just getting to work on marriage number three. :lol::lol:

    I kid, I kid,.
