What do you mean "really paying for it"?

AngiBe<<<<<<---------sucker.
I've been wanting a Chalice for awhile. It's hard finding a smaller chamber atty of high quality. There's no way clones are already being made, is there??? I only want an authentic of course! I posted an add in the "wanted" section of the classies! LOL
Angie, as I told Filthy-Beast, Tom ( Chowderhead1972) @ Catfish atty mods (http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-supplier-forum/581604-catfish-atty-mods.html) here at ECF has numerous smallchamber sinfle & dual coil authentics (Cyclone, Divo, APD, Reactor)

They'll be making some more Chalice III, but not decided yet if they'll be available generally, or just enough to satisfy people who already ordered, but can't actually get one. Because the websites accidentally sold more than they had available...
I'm guessing it will be something in-between: a batch with some extras, but not enough to put for sale widely.

Not having one yet so it's just a guess, You might be able to by going in the back of one post and the front of the other to get the coil to run over the center. The problem I see is the posts appear to be offset to one side like the RM2 so there is less room behind the posts than in front.
Keep it simple and open up pre-order for a few hundred. Either email, separate thread, or even Co-op would do.
It would be a big plus if we can them delivered via local distributors (especially for US customers) since we don't have to deal with the custom.
Oh, while at it, if the next batch release date is close to the launch of GEM, include option to add that to the order?
Happy to pay now and wait a few months for both.

Let's wait few more days and we will have a decision!
Thank you
Puts on flame suit.
How about a loyalty system so those that have multiple invoices with you, get to go first, via a private invitation sale. All hush, hush of course.
J/K, well sort of
It really doesn't matter how you do it, traditional sales, pre-sale, coop etc.., there will still be a mad dash and some people will make the cut the others wont.
You could do a pre-sale and fulfill all pre-orders you got, then you wouldn't need to worry about over production but might be very surprised by how large a batch you need to make.

Just a thought..........I think this might not have happened if no more than one was the max instead of 2- giving more people the opportunity to at least get one instead of none.
Yes, I know things happen but some things can be prevented especially if it's happened each time there's been a sale (since I've been here).
UPS man just swung by and dropped this off (along with a bill for duty)....
Oh, happy day. Off to twist up an appropriate coil.

Let me know how it is! I had to file something with USPS since mine was supposed to be delivered Saturday and it says still shipped from Miami. I bought on VA's website.
Sweet, yours went through another country and made it before mine. Still waiting for the UPS truck to show.
SWEET!!! Mine is at home.....waiting for me to get there...........4 more hours.....I can't wait!
........anxiously awaiting your thoughts!!!
The first Chalices to hit the African Continent have arrived! One is staying in Durban and the other is going to Johannesburg to a mate who also wanted one!
The order also is a record for the fastest delivery of vaping gear to South Africa ever!

Odd, I would have thought Philly to Chicago would have been quicker. Mine went from Philly to Kentucky to Portland to Bellingham to Richmond (through customs) to Vancouver, all since Saturday.
My second Nuppin', after the first one was sent to Israel by mistake, is apparently still in Seattle after a week (I know, I know, Thanksgiving got in the way, but still, it's a 2.5 hour drive). Hmmm... UPS 1, USPS -2.
Okay - new personal record for setting up a coil after getting an atty in my hot little hands. I'd twisted one up this morning in anticipation, was going to boil/clean the atty before using it, but I just couldn't wait for a first vape.
So, first impressions......
* Very, very well made atty. Threads are butter smooth, pieces all fit snug, posts even feel quality (they're wrap-around style, not drilled, and are actually posts with threads and caps that screw on them), nice big fill/drain hole right in the middle of the deck.
* Posts are offset (like the RM2), so builds are pretty straight forward (and 'standard' orientation, as opposed to 'Z' coils). Some who insist on duals or really fat wire (or MM) might struggle a bit - its a small build platform and the post caps don't look like they'd handle more than a single coil of up to, say, 26 gauge (small heads). Parallel coils of 30 gauge should work fine.
* The chamber is itty bitty - smaller on the inside than it looks on the outside. It's really only open up to a level even with the top of the "h" on the "Chalice III" engraving.
* It seats on my Reo grands with no problem and leaves a slight gap between it and the 510 connector, so care should be taken not to overtighten it and risk squishing the 510 pin gasket. This might just be an aspect of my grands' connectors, but I see this on several units I have.
*The afc takes a little getting used to. The afc collar is a little hard to line up with the chamber air holes to your desired setting. Slick design, but there are no markings (that I could see) on the chamber piece to know where the holes are in that piece in order to line up the orientation. I found a way to get the result I wanted by holding the afc collar in place and screwing the cap it's attached to in around it (that won't make sense to many of you - it will once you have the unit in hand. Basically, hold the afc collar where you want it while you screw the top piece in).
* The vape is absolutely incredible. For flavour junkies, this will make you weep the tears of the enlightened. That small chamber (IMHO) is the key. I have the afc wide open and, with a .8 ohm 1/16" 28 gauge micro, it has no problem keeping up to the draw. It doesn't throw the biggest vapor, but then that's not what this little beauty is for. It's a smooth, rich, tasty vape machine. I've got JPN cotton in it right now, no doubt FB will give us his RxW impressions.
In all - stellar atty! I don't feel it's over-hyped. Lack of abundant availability often colours our perception of things - the so-called 'unicorn' effect. This, however, would be ranked very highly and loved by all even if they were a dime a dozen.
Mark, I tip my cap to you, sir.
Bloody good vape, this.

Great write up, thanks for taking the time. Nice read while I'm drumming my fingers waiting for the brown truck, mine also went through KY on it's way to Chicago.
