Give away or sell?

[pahick]

When your stockpile gets overwhelming, do you sell or give away? Since I started back at vaping I went hog wild trying everything under the sun. I had so many people at work that smoke start asking about the different setups ive been trialing, figuring out what I like and dont. I contemplated selling off what I dont favor to recoup some funds, but I decided to give away, actually a lot, in the last few weeks in the hopes I can turn a friend on to vaping. Sure im out money, but it was fun testing different items, and I feel even better as at least 6 co workers have quit smoking and are now on their own journey. Feels good to be able to help.

You're one of the Good Guys..

 

[pahick]

Thanks. I was planning on selling, but after having so many co workers come up to me, I figured what the heck. Someone helped me before, my turn to pay it back. I did sell a few things at first, mainly tanks, but then those guys were like "what mod should I get?" and the giving just started from there.

pahick,
I did the same thing, gives you a certain satisfaction knowing you helped. Don't get too upset if someone you gave something to ends up not using it, or falls back to smoking. Once you did your part it's up to them. My hats off to you though brother, great job. Besides, think of all the money you would have thrown away on smokes anyway! You're still probably well in the black!

 

[pahick]

Well, I wish I could say I saved money on smokes but that would be a lie. Im still struggling, though each day is getting easier. Especially with new equipment coming in a few times a week. Dual using isnt the best, but hey, im moving forward. Actually, some of the guys are a big help with me also. When I see them vaping, not only do we communicate more, im less likely to grab a smoke and grab a mod and join in for a bit.

I've given away thousands worth of vape stuff I didn't like, thrown away a bunch, smashed quite a few with a 3lb ball peen hammer and used many as target practice.

The only ones I sold is when someone offered/asked to buy.

 

[Jdurand]

What nic level are you trying to quit with? I started at 24MG nic. If you can't vape yourself nic sick on your mod, your nic is too low to quit with. If that doesn't work, ask me later about WTA.

6mg in RTAs and 18 in all else. My RTAs I chain vape like theres no tomorrow. The others not so much. I got a bunch of new stuff coming, but always wanted to try nautilus mini, thats here, just waiting on target mini to show up. Ill used 18 in that. Hopefully that curbs it. But thus far not much has.

Call me crazy, but I'd up my nic to like 12 in the rta's. Like I said, you have to be able to vape yourself sick.

 

[ppeeble]

I always give it away
Because i don't want it crapping out within a week and causing me grief....
Cos i'm generous like that.

Im going to increase it. Unfortunately, some like TheSauceLa CWC maxes at 6. And im the one who seeks out the big bottle deals. Some vendors are offering higher nic, and some will do custom on request. I may email a few faves and ask if they will do custom. Thanks.

 

[Jdurand]

Pick up some nic and then buy whatever you wish and customize the nic level.

Just like @Jdurand posted, get some nicotine like the 100 mg/ml used for DIY and add to your juice that only comes in 6 mg to get it up to 12 (or more if needed). The volume required is quite small so there won't be any real dilution of the flavorings.

 

[pahick]

Will do, appreciate it!

A long while ago I gave away all of my starter gear. Now since I have switched to primarily Dripping and Squonking, I am left with Sub ohm Tanks and Mods that a new vaper will more then likely be turned off by.

I have given a few to those I know that have stuck with it and were ready to upgrade, for the rest I may end up selling it.

Since I have just started up DYI Juice, I was worried about the box of half finished juice that I didn't know what I was going to do with, but it turns out that everyone I know likes free juice.

Oh I also have kept very good track of what I spend on vaping and if I stayed smoking, I would have spend double on what I have spent on vaping & that is assuming that the price stayed the same as 4 years ago!

My Freedom Smokes has 20% off nic, pg, and vg through May 30th with coupon code MIXALOT. That makes a liter of 100 mg/ml only $40.

And regardless of what some say, MFS has good nic. I use it everyday and have 7 liters of it in storage. 1 liter of 100mg nic would last you years.

I have never sold any gear but have given away a bunch of stuff that I wasn't using or going to use. Some brand new and unopened. Pay It Forward as they say because you never know what could come your way.

Thank you for posting. Always get my nic there but never keep up with sales
