E-Cig Tanks: Clones (Fakes) VS. Authentic

[BurnEmAlive]

Here's the bottom line regarding clones authentic clearomizers. I think people are a little overly scared about clones in general. If it works great, is cheaper than the authentic, and is regularly available then why be scared of it. I have used many clones and have found that with the right research you can find exactly what you need at a great price. Almost all of my tanks are clones because the truth is there are so many manufacturers in china that are making these things that over time most actually start making these better than the authentic company. I'm not saying every clone out there is up to par but if you find a supplier that has a good reputation then order a few tanks and see how they are. What i usually do when a new product comes out is buy one authentic and use it so i know how the tank is supose to feel like. then i shop around and find a clone that will match the grade of performance as the authentic version.

Is there a huge price savings? Are you talking about glass or plastic clones?

I just ordered a Kayfun/Russian clone. I also just ordered a Hammer mod clone. Pretty big savings. We'll see if it pays off.

These were at roughly 20% of the cost of the originals.

honestly the originals are out of price range for many especially when it come to mech mod's and kayfun's
Not only that they are often out of stock

further more many of the clones work just as good as the original

I am glad I found this link below the prices are great, the customer service is unbelievable
the clones are top quality and the best part its here in the USA = quick shipping no more month long wait for the slow boat from china

I got the Chi-you, Nemesis, Igo-L from them all work great
I will get the brass carvella next Caravela Brass Mechanical Mod Replica

So I just came here from looking to see if I could get on the list for a real Senisis, the list is closed by the way.

In any case $58'ish for the atty and $9'ish for shipping is not out of this world for the real deal (if you can get on the list).

My point is, I want the real deal, but they just aren't available at the moment. So I'm fine with a clone till then.

In that regard I'm okay with clones, otherwise not so much. A clone that saves me a few cents is not really saving me enough to make me feel good about buying a fake. Buying a fake of something that's just not available . . . that's a bit different. Kind of like buying a Dali print, your just not going to find a Dali for sale any time soon.

ive got a few clones myself and i havent had any issues with any of them. ive got a vamo clone and a real one and there really isnt any difference in the vape quality. the build is definately different, ones aluminum and the others either steel or plated brass. ive also got an e pipe clone and it vapes just fine. i personally cant afford to spend a whole lot on vaping(30-40 bucks is up there for me on one device) so clones work out.

the price difference is usually more then a few cents

I paid $110 for authentic kayfun lite and $35 for clone that vapes just as good
