Ok, I was kind of struggling with where to put this, or what I really wanted to get out of posting it.
Since you all convinced me to buy the 510, I have since helped about 20 other people get a hold of a new 510 kit. Most of these went to friends at my local bar. Several regulars as well. One of those regulars told me that a rival bar was selling the exact same thing for $100.
Well, he was wrong, turns out it's a Green Smoke. Looks like the basic kit. I looked around here, and can't really decide if the general opinion is a good one for this particular PV. Obviously, for price vs performance, the 510 would have been a better choice.
My first reaction to this was that the bar was ripping people off. I guess I was wrong there. I think they just made a strange choice of PV's to stock in a bar. They even have a similar sales pitch as if you were walking up to a mall kiosk. "Each cartridge is equivalent to 3 1/2 packs of cigarettes". The Green Smoke website doesn't even exaggerate it that much. I think they're trying to justify the $4.50 price tag on the individual cartomizers.
Thoughts?
