I still think the satin regular will be the last to go...who knows what they really have in stock though. Maybe they'll run out of boards at some point and just scrap the remaining tubes...

Ok, I'll put in MY "guess".

The 2.5s will never end. <coughahemcough> unless...... la la la la la la la la.......



And so sorry, @choochoogranny .... I was just munching a bit of the ole fluffed popcorn. No ulterior motives or statements intended, dahlink. ;)

Looks like the Sangria blems are sold out! Maybe the Pink Ribbon will be the last mod standing!
I bought a Sangria the other day- it was either that or pink. Found out we've got a pretty decent tax refund coming, so I splurged today and got the non-blem satin silver for $49.95.

The satin silver is one of the most under-rated out there, especially considering the fact that it's almost ridiculously durable.

Me hopes & thinks you might be more pleased than you even expect. CONGRATS!

I have two satin silver minis purchased 2 years ago- still performing beautifully.

One thing I noticed with many of the "specials" they're charging $16.95 to add an extender cap on the order page, whereas the usual price is $12.95. So I just added a silver extender from accessories to my cart.

Until this recent sale, all I ever had was the satin silver (2 of the 2.5s and a Classic). You won't regret the satin silver--nothing to scratch off or wear off and doesn't show fingerprints. Great price, too!

Oops, you already knew!

Satin silver is one of my favorite finishes. Polished silver is my least favorite. Polished is just a sticky, sweaty, fingerprinty mess IME. Amazing how a finish can make one Provari much more comfortable to use than another.

Anything painted is what I prefer generally. Satin silver is an exception as it isn't polished and I greatly prefer Zenkote over polished stainless.

I do love my 2 black Classics, but I also love my Zombie P3, black/red 2.5 and Mini and Pearl white 2.5.

You are so right about the different finishes. I love my Celtic Knot - that satin finish is just brilliant, no fingerprints and a delight to touch. On the other hand, I absolutely hated my Titanium Stealth P3. It was rough and tacky to the touch and fingerprints and oil just lived on the surface - it always seemed dirty to me.

I'm liking the ceramic finish on my Titanium White mini too. On the other hand, I'm still on the fence about the Zenkote. Just got a GMZ mini yesterday and I don't know - it seems kind of "rubbery" as in my fingers don't glide over it like you would expect from a polished finish. I'm getting annoyed with the fingerprints too, having to constantly rub it clean is a PIA. It might go back to Provape for a Satin Black or Deep Sea Blue!

Idunno. Fingerprints are about the ONLY "damage" that GMZ will ever see. The black satins get ripped apart over time. Don't get me wrong - I love them, but the GMZ.... WOOT!!! :banana:

I greatly prefer Zenkote over polished. Drives me crazy as my polished is a beautiful P3. I bought it used for stupid cheap, but barely use it.

I have 11 ProVape tube mods and the most used are my black Classics (I have 2 identical), pearl white 2.5 and GMZ 2.5.

I'm gonna give the GMZ a whirl over the weekend, if it's as tough as everyone is saying it's probably worth keeping. Besides I only have 4 Provari tube mods - I feel like a poor stepchild.

Now if I can only talk Provape out of an extension ring for the GMZ... I know they have them available for the Classic GMZ but they don't list them individually on the web site.

You like the Classics, BreSha? The one thing I love about the P3 that is missing on the 2.5 is the display of battery life.
