Boge contacted me last night and told me that if I didn't sell the LEO for 50, they wouldn't sell them to me... I plan on including some form of $5.00 rebate, or a free bottle of liquid in order to workaround this. I honestly think the Chinese price setting is ridiculous.
How do you all feel about this?

As a business you should not be told how much to sell your products for by anyone! To me, that is just rediculous. You bought them at your price from them, so they have there money so what does it matter to them what you sell them for, its your business for crying out loud. That's just my take on it.
Yeh I heard that from another seller....that is just not right. You paid them what they wanted for them how much profit you make is up to you...but what do you do?
Is that not price fixing agaist usa laws?

Plus 50 bucks for one battery and one atty is priced too high. I really like the leo...but @ 50 bucks I would not have given it a try and and stayed with my 30 dollar riva's
I may change my mind on the leo based on the atty. My first atty is was dead @ 7 days. If my next atty does not last a couple of months...may go back to 5 dollar 510 ego attys. The heavy duty atty's and a price of 39 dollars made me try the leo. At 50 I dont even try it and if the atty's dont hold up...well

Mine too, however i Do like the product, and don't intend to drop it... I found a workaround... but it may not be doable right away...
But yeah, JoyE pulled the same load of crap with the eGo, and it lead to the Riva and many other factories producing it much more effectively, and with a better quality. My guess is this will end the same way.
Now that is something I can't say i wholeheartedly agree with, the LEO i use, and my best friend is using are both great, atties going on 3 weeks without issue each. I think you may have gotten a bum one.
In a normal case, i would have dropped the company, but i very much like the LEO, it's one of my favorites... hence my disdain for the situation.
Sorry that you are not happier with your Leo, mgmrick. As I have written in numerous places here on ECF, I'm in love with mine. My first atty lasted me about two weeks (of heavy vaping) before its performance dropped off. About par for the course in my experience.
Glad that you have joined the ranks of Leo suppliers, kno! [BTW, will you be carrying parts?] In the short-term, it was great to see Leos selling for $35 to $40. But in the longer term, it means one less Leo supplier (i.e., Boge cuts them off). I certainly understand your complying with their regulations.
As for those regulations, as a vaping consumer, I don't like it ... but I understand it. It seems that Boge is positioning itself as a top-tier manufacturer ala Joye. OK, to me it's worth it. Now we'll wait and see if a second-tier manufacturer comes out with the $35 900 mAh Leon (or Cleo) ... and if it is as good.

So it's Don who has been coming up with these names!
I also think this price fixing is irritating in the short term. As a consumer, I was very tempted to pick up a Leo yesterday for $40. Not so much today at $50. In a way I can see the manufacturer's point in trying to create a profitable market for all of their customers. Chinese wholesalers seem to have a problem with setting up the distribution channels and unfortunately, it's the big guys who decide what that market will look like. That's not always the best for everyone.

The names: Yes. For example, Leo was my mother-in-law's Zodiac sign. [Although someone else came up with "eGO." It started out as "big ego" (named after me), but Joye's marketing department shortened it.]
The pricing: No. [Oh why, oh why didn't you strike while the iron was hot? As you know, I really wanted you to try the Leo.] But maybe now iVape will slip you a bottle of juice under the table. Hey, why not, kno? ... unless it's Boge e-liquid.

I did not say I did not like the leo. As a matter of fact it is my everyday pv. I love the leo and tell everybody that will listen it is the best pv I have used since being a full time vapor for 4 months....but I wanted better atty life. Seven days for my first atty. The second one on 10 days now. I would be satisfied if I got 30 days
