I will appreciate all feedback, time is short and I have to make a choice, you may be able to help steer me away from getting ripped off.

I need to know what a good price is for a 2013 style SSGGTS with the engravings of "by Imeo" and "to my friend," and of course the wings. I have searched around and haven't found any clear info on pricing, not to clear anyways. Some things I have found are months/years old and the market for these devices may have changed in either direction (more expensive, or less expensive). I am really just not sure. I also need to know what a fair price is for a new genuine Ithaka. Both the SSGGTS and the Ithaka are unused.

I am not looking for an exact price or anything, even a ballpark figure would be a big help. I'd also like to add, I am in the market to buy if anybody is selling.

I bought a quality GGTS clone, because I wanted to try a mech mod. I find the styling of it perfect, the perfect mix of sleek yet not to fancy either, among other things. Basically, I find it 'just right,' not to mention the clone seems to vape great so I bet the genuine article is a beast. I really don't want to deal with clones either. I have an oppurtunity to buy the real thing, but I'm just not sure about the pricing, and I need to be careful, as I'm not exactly made of money :laugh:

Thanks, the price is $250, and $100 for a authentic new Ithaka. Both are new. I was kinda curious to see what prices people would give if I didn't mention one, but you're right, it's probably best to add what price I am being offered.

It is unused, but it isn't new, and has been stored with other mods. Because of this is has ever-so-slight marks (not really scrathes), hopefully I could polish them out.

$250 did seem some what high to me, what do you guys think?

Well $250 for an in your hands today with no waiting or email notification f5 bashing seems a fair price for a gently used/new one.

A quick google leads me to here:Imeo Golden Greek Ithaka Atomizer
which tells me an Ithaka is around the $200 mark so you're being offered a new one at approx half price.

If you've vaped this set up and you like it and you enjoy the aesthetics then I would say go for it, you're certainly not being ripped off.

Spend some time on google and try and find either in stock....

I figured I was getting a little bit of a deal with the Ithaka which makes me feel a little better.

Izan thanks for the advice, I have checked those places out, I really couldn't find a single item in stock except for a telescopic mouthpiece for the Ithaka lol. Do people generally buy expansion tubes and different things to add to their GGs?

I have an Odysseus (clone) and I like that it is all stainless steel, while the Ithaka has the clear window. Can ss tanks be bought for the Ithaka to replace the clear window? I haven't seen any, unless I missed it because I am unclear of all the terminology of what the different pieces are called. How much better is a Ithaka compared to the Odysseus? I know it's newer, but does that mean my vape experience will be much improved compared to the Odysseus?

the GGTS and those attys are the same diameter, so I assume they sit flush then, that's important to me.

I have one big question, are the GG attys like Odysseus and Ithaka the only ones out there that use ceramic? I have expensive cookware that is all ceramic because it doesn't give off any chemical fumes (i have parrots, and the fumes that come off of regular cookware, even high end cookware, that uses any non-stick type materials will kill parrots quite easily), are these attys meant to be in a word, "healthier?"

Thanks a bunch guys. If I get my SSGGTS and Ithaka, I'll have to take some pics to add to the GG forum pics thread

BTW, if I buy the GGTS and Ithaka, I can pick up a brand new mint condition authentic Poldiac mod extremely cheap. The GGTS is going to set me back, and I would like to not spend any more money, but is the Poldiac for like $65 (I was at least told this was extremely cheap). Is this a deal simply to good to pass up?

The guy also has a authentic King mod, which happens to be one of the first ones made, before they changed the style of their logo they engrave onto the mod. It's in completely mint condition and he would part with it for $150.

He also has a bunch of genesis style attys, all in perfect mint condition. Ones like a Cobra, but it's old. I could get a ridiculous deal (so he says) on his rare attys if I buy everything from him.

TO MANY CHOICES MAN. I'm sorry to spam questions to you guys, especially being new here, but I'm confused on what to do. I love vaping, and PVs are right up my ally considering I like to tinker around with things like this. Suggestions?

Edit: this guy seems pretty hardcore, he would actually travel to where these things were sold or actually track down well known modders. He is selling other mods I haven't mentioned, but he is parting with his entire collection, and the more I buy, the more he'll come down on the prices.

The Poldiac can be bought from here:

Homepage | mmvapors.com

You'll see the Poldiac listed on the right under battery holders, yes it's a good price.

BTW if he's selling stuff you're not interested in I'd love a PM with perhaps a list of what he's getting rid of and a price, oh and if you don't want the poldiac I'll take it.
