Let me do the math... Too much.

In chronological order - V2 PCC Kit + 1 battery, plus cartos = $140, 650mah Ego = $25, 900mah Ego Passthrough = $30, 1300mah Vision Spinner = $30, tanks for all of those, approx $75, Lavatube 1.5 - $80, Lavatube 2.5 = $80, Silver Bullet, batteries, charger and several rebuildable atomizers and tanks - $175, Provari, batteries, charger - $250, Kir Fanis Prive and drip tip - $80, Misc tanks and accessories - $100. Juices - ? Probably around $200 for the year

$1265 - roughly. Given my other hobbies (scotch, cigars, knives, straight razors, etc) not really all that bad. I've spent a lot more and enjoyed it a lot less before.

That said, there are still some reeeeeally pretty mods out there that I've got my eye on... And I'll need nice tanks to match them... Ooh, and have you seen the new... DAMN!
 
Way, way too much, this week alone I bought a lavatube, evod clearo but didnt like it so bought a t3s, dont like clearo's now so just bought a smok octopus as ive heard nothing but good things and I like the idea of dripping, now considering getting a mech mod so I can build lower ohm coils, more money! I reckon roughly £400 maybe £500 so far

i started vaping 15 days ago and have just done a xl spreadsheet iv spent £ 341 so far mostly from fasttech a bit of ebay and other cheapish plases,
i used to smoke goldn virginia 50g a week cost £10 per week .
if i spend no more on vape it will take till july next year to put me on winning side of smoking but that just wont happen i can tell, vaping is a bug :)
vaping isnt gonna be cheaper for me but better for my health i hope

p.s this is first post as im a new member

Fasttech ?. You're in England and you ordered from fasttech, what made you do that ?. I know the products are cheaper but....well i'm just wondering if you've got your stuff from fasttech yet or whether you're still waiting. I've heard they're slow even if a customer is relatively local, but you're in England so i'd imagine it'll take forever for it to arrive. I dunno !.

today is the 3 month mark on quitting smokes for me ... I don't really know what I have spent on vape gear, however, it probably is not much more than I have saved by not smoking.

What I have gained though, besides better health? ... I have enough vape stuff, where I could vape for the next 3 years without having to spend any money :2cool:

I quit keeping track about a year ago. It's nice to receive vape mail weekly. I PIF a lot too though and have helped convert about 30-40 smokers in the last year alone. Friends, coworkers, even strangers. I always have a starter setup in my car to give away or PV's that i don't use anymore.

OMG! IF I can find the tonnes of bills (most are on my Ecig folder on my PC, thinking about it :( ) I don't think I'd dare count the amount ;)
We are 2 who vape, but it is I who does all the ordering, buying, DIY juice making, coil rebuilding, Mod mending, and G knows what else, except I vape for 1 person only :D

At first it was at LEAST 100€ a month, on flavors, Nic, VG, PG, different devices, etc. Sometimes MUCH more...

This is like "Confessions of a Shinyitis sufferer" :vapor: lol

I used to go to the tobacco shop for 2 of us 4 to 6 times a month, and spent 70€ average each time.
We didn't stop smoking to save money, but for health reasons, and my vape/life partner is in much better health since stopping smoking in June 2012.
So...we have quite a collection of Vamos, Mechas, genesis tanks, Protanks, clearos, 15 (approx) batteries, Ego's, and the box of Flavors, a few liters of Nic, PG (1l), VG, and bottles to put it in....

Now we spend less, although this month we've invested in those new ARO clearos in Pyrex, as the T3's were getting positively old (like falling to pieces regularly).
On the whole in 19 months we've spent what we'd have spent in 3 or 4 months of smoking, and don't "honestly" need to buy anything for at least a year, if we were reasonable...:glare:

But I have tis Shinyitis thing, and I like trying new flavors, although frankly, at a max of 4€ the bottle, you get your juice for next to nothing when you make it yourself.
The basic problem is the super new gear that works more or less well, but is worth a try, to get a nice, easy to use vape...

We've spent TOO MUCH...OK :evil:

:ohmy:..:laugh:......
