Of course I've bought other DT in the past. Honestly, I could say it was mostly because of availability. Now I will have four and only have two Pv's I use anymore

Good Day TrippyTipsKinz,
Freddy, You know what they say: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." I say BRAVO for TrippyTips -- For the others to copy even the name of the tips tells me TrippyTips is the STANDARD in glass ART drip tips Others can duplicate glass drip tips, but don't have the ART of the TRippyTipsDreamTeam {{{{{Freddy}}}} 
For Coralie

Sending prayers for strength & healing to you and anyone else that needs them
Happy Monday everyone

Holy crap I did it.. I finally caught up!!!
Someday tho!
I will be replying to your PM within the hour
Tell me about it, my family gets lots of etched wine crates and bottles of win for gifts 
Back when you guys first started offering the TT thread stuff other than TT's
Within the hour my friend
The MicDewinator!!! How have you been? So great to see you around Its been quite a while
Lol you may have read that, me and a couple Tripsters talked about it briefly, but no the Mrs is not ready yet. I want more children but she wants to wait, which is also fine with me, I'd rather bring another child into the world when we are both ready. Plus we'd like to be in a larger house before a second child
Someday tho!Very nice! I really like that bottom donut, good scores!Hi everyone! Got home from work and all settled down and searched through the pics on FB and I am pretty sure these are the two I got (well I am definite about one and sort of sure about the other one)
this one I know I got
and this one I THINK I got - there were two that were very close...so I'll just have to see...
I'm so happy I got my second two choices - and on my first sale! I can definitely see how this can be addicting...
Yes I saw your PM last night, I refrained from replying until today because my pictures are stored on this PC here at work, and because my daughter woke up while I was replying last night the first time, so I got sidetracked
I will be replying to your PM within the hour Tell me about it, my family gets lots of etched wine crates and bottles of win for gifts Have fun Blu!! You know you love those glittering vampire teens, don't gotta hide behind DDDD and I are FINALLY going to the movies, and I am gonna wear a huge sweatshirt, put an eGo/clearo on this necklace thing I have, put my arms inside the sweatshirt, and vape my head off while the Vampires glitter and fight.
I believe Painfreak had requested some plugs Bert
Back when you guys first started offering the TT thread stuff other than TT's Within the hour my friend I have tried another glass tip but it was immediately given away. Collectors, glass art enthusiasts, and vape-snobs like myself will always know the difference between your quality products and the cheaper knockoffs. I know they say that imitation is the highest form of flattery, but having people blatantly copy your work is enfuriating. We love your creations Freddy, and I know I speak for most of us Tripsters that when it comes to glass tips, you and the Trippy Team have our undivided loyalty.Good morning, everyone. I'm going to make a small statement and I hope that I do this as neutrally and plain as possible so I don't have to restate this again.
It's a very interesting time in our lives, technology has allowed for us to be in full communications globally and right here is as good as an example as it gets. I appreciate every single aspect of it as an artist because I can share and empower my "voice" to people in a very clear way.
I am also aware of the shortcomings having this open line of communications bear to an artist and his creative integrity. I have seen it over and over again how one design, one intellectual artistic conception can get assimilated and washed down in a matter of days even. I actually just had that happen while introducing my "developed for 13+ years" marble studies. I posted my work, offered a signature series starting in December and I literally saw a young artist copy, create and market "his" piece within days. It doesn't sit well, mind you. It's frustrating and demeaning to say the least. I get it, some people need to copy.
I am experiencing the same thing with making some tips right now. I feel that the lines of artistic integrity have been blurred and crossed. I cant help it, I dont have the power to stop someone from violating my "voice", all they have to do is look here anyway and read my feelings, see my work. I cant keep people from using my favorite designs and making them out of Chinese "art" glass, I am just an artist that is trying to express his inner self and uphold his art as "collectible" I will tell you that it hurts not only my inner self, but the integrity of my work. I feel washed down, labeled, demeaned, copied and disrespected.
That said, I am happy for you as collectors to have a "choice", to see how this dialog that Bert unfolded is not only inspiring other artist to join in, but how awesome it is to see when that expression hits the mark, makes a new statement. I am very happy for you all and I know some of you advocated for this to happen, which is why I am doing this publicly, I am going to ask that you all as collectors keep your own vigil to attempt at upholding the integrity of what you have invested into. I would like to see our product stand apart from anyone else so that integrity is not blurred. I would like to see our names not be copied. If we make a piece and called it by a specific name...that is our design, our product. It is lacking of common integrity to copy a design and it's name while using the cheapest color glass available made from china. We make art glass drip tips from the best quality art glass and that should be unacceptable to any of you as well.
I will not discuss this any further, I cant. I will also say that I am trying extremely hard not to feel demoralized and continue providing you all with my innermost craft and thank you for listening.

Howdy Trippy Peeps,
Finally all caught up and wow was the sale something else. Sashwa got the wee lil Blue taper for me and I went hog wild late night Saturday. I then went back today picking out Christmas gifts and finding additional tips that just needed a good home. Coralie I'm still sending all my good will your way and am so pleased with the Trippy Nation for all they are doing as well. Stay strong and positive cause we're all here pullin for ya. I going to try to post my Trippy Booty at some point but I'll need to review my orders to remember all that I scored. However, I bought one of the Trippy tables that I'm certain will be filled the day it arrives. I still need to put a top order in cause the wife has been checking out the tipped offs and has her heat set on one. I hope everyone is getting through their Monday and will have a great week. Peace, Love & Trippy Tips Brew

Amber, I got my mini-nova in and am now putting it through its paces. Aesthetically I like it a whole lot: it's shape mirrors my Zmax and with my Black Hole Sun bulb on it, it's down right purdy! Performance wise, the jury's out. I let it prime for around 10 minutes, like I do with my full-size ones and tried it out. It sucked, and not in a good way. No taste and very little flavor. I decided to let it sit for another 1/2 hour or so and it made a world of difference. Great vapor and the flavor is better. To be fair, I put in a 6mg juice that I already know I need to enhance. To make a more valid test, my next tank's gonna be my White Peach ala Zoe, still 6mg but 3x flavor and 80/20.
Speaking of juices, I don't know if y'all are familiar with Vixen Vapors, but they've got a juice named Pixie Dust which tastes just like the Pixie Stix some of us old-timers remember from our childhood. If you want a blast from the past, you might consider it. Warning though: she has her PG/VG percentages reversed from every other site I know. She has VG first; I thought I was ordering 70/30 PG/VG, instead i got the reverse.

Okay so with Sashwa's help and my spree the collection just grew a bit by the acquisition of the following tips less 1 that topped the limit of 5 images per post:
