Please don't send the money. Rob is refunding it all. Ya'll are an awesome bunch. But it is creating more work for Rob to refund us all. He's such a good dude that he will not accept us treating him to dinner (well said fish cakes).

Really people, Robs the real deal and he now is refunding us all.

Another "how many business owners would" type of question.

I have set aside that cash for my next mod now :)

Rob, you're a great dude man. Damn inspirational

-----------------------------------------------------



Far and wide,
It's time to help a brother, lets show some pride.

He's the man who makes these mods that whoop ayuss
He'd never ask us, so let not the chance pass

To give back to a true and great friend
help offset the costs of these killer 510s

He's made a mod that'll be there for you
Lets us be there for him too

He so humbly acknowledged that the parts ain't top shelf
He's recalling them all and plans to pay for it himself

Lets not let that happen
Lets try to chip in

Lets show our man Rob that we got his back
Lets bombard his paypal with a mighty attack

dollars, dollars lets get some to him
go to your paypal and freakin log in

I can no longer tell you where the gifts can be shot (cause he won't take em)
Lets show Rob some love and that his back we got.


End of the poem. This is just a gesture to help THE man. He'd never ask and he may not even like that I'm doing this, but tough shizz. This time I'm being the .... I told yall I can be. I'm helping. This is a big hit to Rob I'm sure. He'd gladly choke on these costs to get your mod back, fix it and send it back. He'd gladly make new parts. And he's doing what any classy business owner would do - no charge to us. But I for one feel that I WANT to help him somehow. I cannot rebuild the mods myself, But I (we) can help offset these major costs to a guy who is such a big part of our smoke free lives.

Lets freakin help our brother Rob.

Edit (Thanks Mark Howard) Here is the excerpt from Rob that drove us to wanna help:

"We ran into a problem with are new adjustable 510 connection . The adjustable part of this 510 is not working properly . I will be replacing the center post and the adjustable screw in all the mods . I should have used a reverse thread The only reason I didn’t I was hoping to avoid having people destroy there cartomizers and atomizers with a connection that has no give . I didn’t have issues with the prototypes I made. The parts I had made were not as tight of a tolerance as the prototypes . What is happening is the adjustable center post is threading down as people are threading there atomizers on to there mods . This is totally my fault I apologize to everyone that will be inconvenienced .

People will need to send there mods in to me and I will replace the parts needed to make it work properly . I am still waiting on a reply as to when I can get these parts . I will post in this thread and also on my site as soon as I have more info . I will pay the shipping to and from reosmods first class shipping that is . Your mods are still usable I wouldn’t send them in until I no when I can get the parts"

This has to be a major hit to the REO bottom line. At first I thought that the fix was merely sending out new set screws, obviously that is incorrect. Any small business would have a difficult time sustaining such a loss on top of the expense involved in the original development. I hope the hit is not more than can be sustained. I know that I'll be footing the shipping costs.

I'm unaware of what the underlying issue is. Where can I get caught up on this, if not here?

Mark, Thanks for asking - Here's an excerpt from Rob:

"We ran into a problem with are new adjustable 510 connection . The adjustable part of this 510 is not working properly . I will be replacing the center post and the adjustable screw in all the mods . I should have used a reverse thread The only reason I didn’t I was hoping to avoid having people destroy there cartomizers and atomizers with a connection that has no give . I didn’t have issues with the prototypes I made. The parts I had made were not as tight of a tolerance as the prototypes . What is happening is the adjustable center post is threading down as people are threading there atomizers on to there mods . This is totally my fault I apologize to everyone that will be inconvenienced .

Your mods are still usable I wouldn’t send them in until I no when I can get the parts"

I'll add this to my OP so others can understand the problem, the magnitude to Rob and his "I'm going to make it right" way he does things.

Thanks for that, sxd. Now I need to figure out if that's either one of my 2 new ones. My only issue has been my Derringer will come unscrewed every time it goes back into my pocket, never happened before...

Mark, I copied the wrong text. I edited the reply to your post and the OP (again).

Great idea super X and not only shipping costs but it needs to be mentioned the real stress to the bottom line would be "I'll not be selling any mods until this issue is fixed". How many small business owners do you know that could take that kind of hit and would even be willing to in the first place.

Well I just learned of one business owner :) REO baby. That's why I feel compelled to help and i know that so many of us care about the Jedi squonktologist mod father himself.

You are on point bro.

Let's see if we can brighten up his day like ours get brightened up when we get a mod :)

Ok can you just hold mine as a down payment on my next mod please then?

I definitely didn't mean to cause you more work Rob. That's the last thing you need right now.

See. He IS the man.
