Got my Glas clone in today along with a Infinite Magma, its my first mech so I have no other experience to compare it to but I like it so far. It has copper pins for the top and bottom as well as a very smooth magnet switch and the threads are also smooth. Its a lot smaller than I thought it would be and the Magma fits it perfectly and looks like it was made for it.
I'm kinda over mechs, but the glass is a sexy beast. I think I could rationalize a clone.
This isn't an "original" rant, but quite honestly, if I need to learn some secret handshake or get nominated to some society of mystical vapors to get an invitation to try and attempt to buy a mech, they're not targeting MY demographic.
Ebay, I was only looking for an Magma from Infinite and ran across it, I havent even heard of a Glas much less the clone but got them both so cheap I was willing to to take a chance. Im glad I did as i really like it, I built a 28 ga twisted coil, going to re-build it to a dual set-up and go from there.
Same here.... Well, I do have a fake one for game login/bonus purposes.
I feel ya on that. I hear people talking about bending over backwards, doing this, doing that... Even a woman saying she sent topless pictures... To TRY to get on the list to purchase... Not really extra work I want to do just to be considered to possibly be someone who will be allowed to send my money to a company...
She did have nice cans though.
I'll stick to my kinda/sorta available though semi-hard to find mods that my B&M gets in occasionally and lets me give them my hard earned cash on the spot for.
edit: Said woman with nice cans who mentioned she sent pictures of said cans to glas folk still does not possess a glas mod.

yeah, right ! Like the mod you have to solve a riddle to just get a chance for it (Grimm Green was talking about it)
Exactly. If the Glas mod was actually made for a consumer base, why not let the consumers consume? haha
I know that's a rhetorical question, but it seems to me there's a certain type of consumer whose interest in a product increases exponentially with the product's rarity.
Not that there's anything wrong with that, I'm just simply not that consumer.
^^ I am into rarity/hard to find but not on the level of Glas.
I do have 3 stingrays and will continue buying them as I have liked how every one of them hits; and I like the design. As well as the hard-to-get-limited-availability-thing.

^Stingrays are not that hard to attain. The Glas seems to be on another level, on a level which I would say its easier to attain Gepettos and Waparis than a Glas.
Considering I only know of one B&M that carries them, and they sell out pretty quick when they do get them in, for me they are somewhat hard to get. I am not one to order/trust online shops for anything 'authentic' in this particular hobby.
Some are harder to find than others, i.e. the limited editions.
And by no means was I comparing the difficulty of them to that of obtaining a Glas.
Ive been trying to sorce an authentic for a while with no luck. I want on and cant get it such a bummer.
I was looking at the Glas clone recently and I'm only finding that it looks like the real thing on the outside. The clone seems to be made with standard adjustable pins, not the type of engineering that the real mod has for the top and bottom caps.
That's one way to stump the cloners ......lol
Make the mod so hard to buy, that no one can get one to engineer a proper clone.
Not even the customer base you are attempting to market the mod too.
FYI: if freaking Facebook is the only way to buy a product, I wouldn't expect any level of professionalism.
Some one who can't afford a simple website with shopping cart and merchant account isn't my first choice for quality and customer service.
Just my opinion based on common sense.
