Wow, that sucks. I ordered the 4nine from Artemus last Sunday shipped Monday and ordered the KF4 from them on Tuesday and shipped yesterday.

What??? I ordered mine on new years eve and nothing??? Well that settles it, off to file a Paypal dispute..

Oh wow, that's a lot of stuff. This is very tempting. Too bad shipping is $4. I don't need any of the plastic bits, just the o rings. Might as well spend less and get more o rings since that's what I need.

The one I bought off eBay was sent regular old standard mail, I got updates the entire way. STILL no sign of my Artemus KF, 2 weeks to the day after I ordered it. I really wanted to get the 4Nine clone they have on sale but no way in hell will I ever give them business after this..

Ditto. I've received FT orders faster. I only ordered from them because they were in the US, thinking I'd get it faster :blink:

Yeah but my 2 have also said shipped for about a week now with nothing more showing up. Might not want to hold your breath.

HD

Yep I went and checked the email Artemus sent, as well as plugging the number in at USPS.com, and nothing. Its still sitting there with "pre shipment info sent" since January 9th. No word on it ever actually leaving Artemus's possession.

Now Ive never had to do this before but whats the process of getting a Paypal refund?? Went and checked the transaction, it appears Paypal is telling me I need to contact the seller? So I just email Artemus directly and hope they cancel the order on their end like a regular business transaction??

Can you check to see if your in "pre-shipment" status or did actually ship? Mine has been in "pre-shipment" since January 5th. I ordered between Christmas and New Years. It was advertised as not shipping until the 5th so no harm there.

I ordered mine on 1 January. Was sent a shipment notification on 9 January that clearly states an estimated delivery in 1-3 days. I just checked the US Postal website and it still shows in "Pre-Shipment". Grrrrrrrrrrr :mad:

Got my tobeco Kayfun v4 today and am enjoying it.
Dual coil 0.42 ohm. It does fluctuate a little from 0.4-0.45.
At 30w on the ipv3 it is vaping well and wicking seems to be keeping up quite nicely.

How do you like you IPV3? I found one at a great price but it looks huge in you hand.

Personally I love the Ipv3. Its nice being able to throw an rda on it and crank the watts up, or this Kayfun and I just lower the watts.
This Kayfun is the first tank I've had in prob 6-7 mos so its nice being able to play around with the wattage and not worry about rebuilding coils to get how I want to vape from it.

I don't have one but have used a friends on occasion. Feels like a solid mod for the money for sure. It's big but I like the way it feels in my hand. My friend very much likes his and has lots of mods to choose from and works in a Vape shop so he uses it by choice. Where did you find the great deal? I might be interested if the price is right:)

So what is the consensus on the best clone? I came just came into this thread and there are a lot of pages.... Which was one is getting the best reviews thus far?

I think most of people vote for Tobeco. I am using Robottech right now and it is good. I also order the Tobeco which is on its way.

I have the Tobeco and I haven't had any problems other than the juice control being tight at first. I top fill mine without even adjusting the juice control and all I have to do is blow out just a small amount of liquid. But the juice works great. It's just faster that way for me.

IPV3 150 Watt Box Mod By Pioneer 4 You / Green Leaf Technology $83 for the PV but the shipping is $9.

Find four more friends that want one and get it for $78 and the shipping is free.
