No, it's not rhetorical, because I don't have any idea what they offer.
GG tide turning?

I'm no GG expert but I'll throw in my 
I believe the lower prices in the classies is due to the BIG interest in vv devices and that Imeo is now doing preorders for devices. He runs preorders through the vendors for a period of time then makes all the orders plus a few more. Demand is now close to being met. You just have to wait for awhile to get your device.
I've never seen anyone treated with anything but respect in the GG threads. I don't think I've seen any other supplier\vendor as active and concerned with his customers as Imeo.
I own 2 Penelopes but I'm no fanboy. I really believe they are the best rba\tank on the market. No mesh to fiddle with. No leaking. Great flavor, throat hit, etc.
I don't own any GG pv because I would never pay that kind of money for a mechanical mod. I'm not sure I'd pay that kind of money for any mod.
All just my opinion.

Ditto on the Penelope. Best rebuildable I've laid my hands on. Frankly, I was so impressed with the quality of it that I pre-ordered a GGTS and a GGTB. I've got several higher end VV devices and enjoy them a lot. However a rebuildable makes it kind of easy to wrap a coil to suit the device your using whenever you want to, so it kind of renders VV not absolutely necessary for my personal vaping enjoyment anymore. Plus, I'm in this for the long haul and have a longer range view/fear of what the future could be like for vaping if the FDA starts issuing deeming regulations and supplies dry up. Good mechanical mods, rebuildable atomizers, and DIY skills will keep me vaping happily long after the electronics in the VVs have given up the ghost.
not worried about VV going away,,no way does the FDA stand a chance in hell of regulating electronics of any kind !!
so do i ,but mine are every bit as good as any GG,and i can easily modify them at home
but then again,,GG's are a lot easier to get a hold of then my mechanical's

Off topic, but then again not. Most everyone will likely agree to the status that the Provari has had over the last couple of years. Many non-owners proclaim their distain for Provape for charging so much for what they believe the Chinese knockoffs can do just as well for 1/3 to 1/2 the price of a Provari. Having had a Provari for a couple of months now, I can totally understand the love that owners proclaim of theirs. It is indeed a great device, and worthy of its place as the standard of easily available variable voltage APV's.
However, with recent availability of the DNA chip from Evolv, and the first USA-built variable wattage device with the DNA now available in the Stallion for the same price as the Provari, I can't help but think that the reign that the Provari once owned by itself may soon topple.
The Provari, as is, will always be a high-quality device, at least in my mind. And who's to know if Provape doesn't have something up their sleeve, as well? But as more American APV manufacturers start offering high quality variable wattage devices, if Provape does not respond, their status may very well be threatened.
My appologies for hi-jacking this thread. I saw some similarities between the two APV's and wished to share my thoughts.

i have been in contact with provape today,,they told business is booming so fast they had to hire another girl they are so busy ,even with all these cheaper china devices showing up
there will always be a certain customer base that will buy the provari like me,,i prefer the heavier weight of it as opposed to something made of a lighter material
That information actually doesn't surprise me. I've been following the Provari threads here at ECF for several months, ever since I began vaping. It didn't take long for a newbie to figure out that Provari was considered by many to be the upper standard for quality and customer service.
Since the advent of the new color options became available, which is when I got mine, I've noticed a lot more activity (new purchases and forum posts) from new owners and previous owners alike. It does seem like the Provari is as popular now as ever.
I was just reading and watching the reviews of the first USA-made variable wattage APV with the Evolv DNA chip, the Stallion by Texas Select Vapor. This looks like it could give Provari a run for the money should they be able to keep up with the supply-demand. And I'm sure the market will be flooded with similar devices within the next few months.

That's what matters most, keeping up with demand. There's plenty of great devices, but price tags combined with long waiting lists pretty much makes them vapourware for the regular user. IMHO Limited runs and classy buys are great for pretty devices to post up in "show off your stuff" threads, but having something actually available when you hit "Checkout" trumps em. You can create the worlds best APV, but if you can't meet demand you'll lose money to folks who can.
honestly i have no desire to do the whole wattage thing,volts or wattage they both create vapor
thats why i have no desire to get a darwin,that and whole battery goin dead thing
there will always be those that like a certain type of mod for whatever reason,,me i prefer the provari because of it weight ,,reminds me constantly that i am holding it ,,

IMO, mechanical mods like the GGTS are collector's items. They are not meant for regular use, it's that bottle of cognac that you keep in your closet which you take a sip once in awhile to appreciate its beauty.
If I own a GGTS, I sure as hell wouldn't dump it into my bag or pocket and use it like the way I do with a Provari or Lambo.
For sure, there's always collectors, they have their place no question about it. Folks who are wanting a more boutique type device can get turned off the waits and just move on. For a business, that's customers (and income) lost. Enough of that happens and you end up running dry. People are (probably) making more money off reselling these things on the classies than the company making them, that's not a good business strategy imo. Can't stress enough that this is purely opinion. I just wouldn't want to have a company and not see potential to be self sufficient, considering the amount of time they require.
Interesting point. I always wondered about that seeing those incredibly well lit, high resolution pics with extremely polished, shiney, and unmarked APV's I've seen on the Show Us Your Mods or Vape Porn. If they use them at all, how do they keep them that prestine? With felt gloves?

Not forgetting most of them are fingerprint magnet.
If you are thinking about bringing them out to show off to your friends, forget it. You will probably need to wipe them a couple of times before going "Isn't this beautiful?". 5 seconds later it's all smudged with prints.
But that doesn't mean I'm against buying them. I'm personally trying to order The Adam.
FYI psurado [sp] did a review on the ADAM from Korea,,yes they are sharp looking and almost a practical out and about mod
he was having some problems with the switch
sorry i don't have the you tube link
