Imeo i think you should get 10.000 km next time, all of your resellers are out of wick already! :eek: Actually i dont care about the price I just want some :evil:


Thanks for the understanding kw.:)

My sellers earn 0,5 euros per meter, so their profit is very close to mine. Its not a big deal for them too. But I think that wick is not a big cost on rebuildables comparing to the china atomizers. We use 4cm wick per wire so we can make 25 wires per meter. So the cost is about 2 euros per month. Its not something special for you too as I see it. I dont know if you agree or if I am missing something:)

You dont give me hard time kw, its always a pleasure for me to answer questions. As for the availability I can order more wick if you think that its not enough. Maybe that way is better so I will satisfy my wick supplier too:)

I don't think ordering more will hurt Imeo. There will be a lot of new to gg rebuidables in the next few months and it seems like most of us used our first meter in a matter of a week or 2 experimenting and learning. That being said with over 2000 ody over 2000 Penelope and iAtty combined. Even if everyone only wanted 5 meters of wick you would need over 25000 meters of wick And I know many of us (myself included) will probably want 10 or more meters.

This is all JMHO so please take it as you will

Understandable I was just kidding anyway I was having another frustrating moment this mourning I just had eye surgery a few weeks ago and i cant see anything close up need to get reading glasses once I know what strength to buy anyway I vape alot and the juice I vape gunks up the wick alot so I rebuild alot changing the wick is really all that is needed so am hoping for an alternative to wick I wont even begin to try stainless steel mesh. Do u know if the wick at the Canadian supplier is safe ? it says fiberglass 6mm or 8mm. I go through wick more than anything else. If I had the cash I would love to try and make a ceramic wick or somthing other than the wick we are using now. Well dont want to bore you Thanks for the response Adam

Hi Imeo, I don't think anyone is complaining about the cost. It's the availability of the supplies that's the problem. In my opinion the suppliers should ALWAYS have wire and wick in stock except in rare unforseen occasions when something unexpected happens. But it seems that usually my supplier is out of wick and wire and that's a problem. I love my Ody's & Iatty's, vape them every day all day and don't ever want to be out of the supplies that are necessary to vape them. That's the reason I've found another source for wire and am looking for another source for wick and I buy it in larger quantitys when I find it. When smoking analogs I never bought packs, always cartons and if the store I patronized was routinely out of stock, I just found another store to go to. And I certainly don't mind the store making a fair profit. I'm an accountant who works with small businesses every day. I know they must make a profit or they'll be out of business very soon. I sure don't want any of you guys to go out of business cause I love your products.
i dont make a fortune from selling wick kw. I buy at 0,65 euros and I sell it to my sellers at 1 euros. Earning 0,35 euros per meter will not make me rich. In fact, I make about 1700 euros per 5.000 km and I need 1 month to sell it. If the state takes the half of my money and the VAT is 23% then I make less than 800 euros. Its not a big deal. If I wanted to make money I would sell it at 3-4 euros like other people do with their wicks (that dont have certificates too):)

From what I've seen this Ebay seller (eBay My World - coinswiesiek) usually has the wire but for some reason just lists a few spools at a time and then a few days later lists a few more spools. I know last week I was looking for some but their ebay listing showed them as out. Somebody else on this list contacted the seller by email and they listed some more. I bought a 200' spool and it was delivered in 3 days. Excellent price, good wire and excellent service.

kwalka, Only thing that bothers me is that I think that is the same wick Imeo quit using after some lab tested it and determined it wasn't safe for ecig use - but I'm not positive.

I agree w you about not knowing...I dont know anything about this other wick you guys speak about. But what I do know, is there are a whole lot of us who need wick and cant get it. So when I saw your post I thought I would share some of my research. We def need to compare notes and make sure we are getting the safest possible stuff. If they wont tell us where to get it, we are kind of left to figure it out ourselves.
Anyway so you think that link I gave you is a no go? I've got about 4 more that I'm looking at. I will let you know what I come up with.

I was in direct contact w that seller and she told me she had a small quantity available right now (2 days ago), and next week she said she would have a whole pallet.
