I don't care what anyone says.Copying someone's work,creation,art,etc..,is NOT RIGHT!Selling the copy,making the copy and buying the copy are ALL WRONG in my opinion.It supports thievery and that is never a good thing.It's not like Imeo is some big corporation,making millions of GG's,so he can afford to get ripped off by low-quality copies of his work.If you can't afford the real thing(which is a joke,because none of us vapers are living hand to mouth or we wouldn't vape) then DON'T BUY IT! I am offended for Imeo when I read people trying to condone the buyers,sellers,and creators of GG knock-offs.I am always against any creator/artist getting ripped off.BOYCOTT THESE KNOCK-OFFS and show true respect to the true and honest man behind the GG-curtain.That's my 2 cents.....fuse....blown again.Heh heh.But really.I mean it.
Ok, again, here is my original post
"The Chi-Chi and all is one thing, but this is by far the closest copy of a GG PV i've seen yet! It's got the collector tank, and even the new style GG endcaps with Imeo's beautiful venting. Somebody REALLY took a lot of time studying your products to rip them off! "
I did NOT say that it was cool to rip this off. All I said was that I had respect for DV for trying to get people cheap gear, that's all. I am sitting here posting inbetween toots from my GGTStealth + Penelope right now. Not a Chi Chi and a Terminator or any of that other CRAP. So before you make an assumption and jump down my throat, hold back. I did not say it was cool in general, though I'm sure my wording of what I was really trying to say is poor, I just meant I had no problems with chinese stuff (which is always called clones it seems this day,) like the DID clone, etc. I DO have a huge problem with this, which is what the OP said in the first post, aka, ME. And if you weren't talking to me, I apologize, but some people take vaping wayyyy too seriously. In the end, whatever makes you happy.
I do not like this, but if I saw a guy walking down the street with one I wouldn't pour my Pepsi out on his head and curse him out or anything, ROFL!
Edit: And also, no offense to Eric, but from what I gather, he's a simple vaper who uses things like clearos and basic setups. He's not into the hobby side of things, so don't go too hard on him for posting a link to the GG wiki, I really don't think he see's what a touchy subject it is. He's had many complaints to the manufacturers of his products he sells from other vendors (Stormy's is one for sure I would imagine since they're a rip off and they sell GG rip off's, how ironic) for charging too low so that the other vendors are having a harder time gouge their products. We're all in the same boat here folks, quit smoking and stay quit, when you come right down to it. That being said, I am kind of disappointed that he is selling this, but I'm certainly not going to degrade him for it, I just hope people don't start buying them much, but I already see one was sold today.
Ok, so I before I make anybody mad, I just wanted to say that I hope nobody thinks I'm being a jerk, it just seemed like I was being flamed for making a comment that I didn't really word very well to begin with, and I hope I didn't overreact or completely misinterpret everything to begin with!
