The problem we have here is there's two different camps under the same umbrella.
You have those that can't afford, won't spend or don't have the patience to get an original...not that there's anything wrong with that.
Then you have the collectors and connoisseurs who will buy the high end stuff and pay top dollar...and there's nothing wrong with that either.
I honestly don't see the collectors and HE
mod owners running around going "I'm better than you because I spent $$$ on my mod and you didn't" although I do see the clone buyers constantly making this up and saying it.
The only crap you're being given is for wanting the artwork and logos of the originals that were ripped off by the counterfeiters.
Those that just want to spend as little as possible and get a good vape deserve exactly that. A great vape at a reasonable price for an available mod. However you don't need to have the graphics and logos of the originals for any of that other than being a poser. You're the same person who blames Rolex for their high prices and runs out and buys a fake so everyone thinks you have a Rolex. You could have bought a great Seiko or Citizen for a lot less money instead of a crappy poser piece.
What I do see is a lot of clone/counterfeit buyers bashing HE mod owners because they're "Brand chasing" or whatever other insults they come up with which is totally uncalled for.
Blaming the mod makers for making limited production or charging too much is BS. If you don't like the price or can't get one boo hoo, it's not for you.
There is a collectors market and for those that can play they deserve to do so without being bashed for it.
You do deserve to be bashed for buying counterfeit products because you're only doing so because of stolen artwork and logos. There are plenty of great affordable mods for you that aren't blatant rip offs of the originals but no, that's not good enough for you. You don't want a plain tube that works like a Nemesis, you want the death angel on the front and the name and serial number on the back.
