How much have you spent on devices to date ?

In the past month I've spent about $100 on a Blue kit, two Cig2o's and cartomizers (pre-forum newbie purchases); $300 for two e-pipes, $100 for batteries and a 4-bay electronic charger, and about $100 on clearomizers and e-juice. That brings me to about $600.

Since I was spending about $100 per week on smokes I should break even in about two weeks. If you take into consideration the number of cigarettes avoided, though, I'm already way ahead.

Honestly, I don't even want to think about it. I was suppose to be saving the cigarette money. Not! Its all being spent on mods and juice. Although, I did manage to squirrel away a few bucks here and there and take that money to the casino. Even when I lose at the casino now it doesn't piss me off for I would have smoked that money up anyway. Its like a free fun night of entertainment.

So far I have or have gone through about a liter of various juices, five five packs of cartos of which I only used a few before moving into rbas, phiniac tank, carto punch, silver bullet, two aga-ts with various tanks due to faulty material/desire for glass, atmizoo roller/dingo with various parts, ac9, two paps with various parts and tubes, two spheroids with various parts, and probably a couple other things I'm forgetting.
Shipping from Greece and the UK add up quick too.


I never thought i'd here someone from the states say they order from abroad. That must cost a fortune. Probably more than the items themselves.

Too much LOL but I would have spent 20 times as much on smokes in a few months vs the two plus years Ive been vaping.Im trying to get provari and then I will be set so hopefully that along with DIY juice I make I will cut vape cost down buy a lot :)

A big difference between smoking and vaping is you still have something to show for your money with vaping, the devices !. Where as "all" the money goes up in smoke when smoking.

Looks like you had yourself a nice little spending spree there. :toast:

i have spent way too much on different devices and mods, however this turn into a hobby more or less for collection. But at the same time I enjoyed vaping and learning all the ins and outs.... Isn't it priceless to quit analogs and smell fresh????!!!!!!

Priceless !.

That happens a lot. Plenty of people develop their vaping habit into a hobby. I love it. :D

I spent about 200 on a cigalike and refill carts and some disposables (which i'm currently using)
and about 70 on a spinner 1300 and 4 tanks, 30 on some juice from mt baker, and 14 on juice from AIV.

I'm planning on purchasing some attys and driptips, probably some cartos, kanger pro, and picking a clearo I like.
I also will probably pickup a larger VV for home use, and probably 1-2 smaller batts for work, and I need a case :)

Going to keep using my cigalikes at work for a bit while I play with my spinner at home....then see where the path takes me :)
oh, and I expect i'll buy a few more of the disposables from the cigalike company...they really are quite good. perfect for keeping in my laptop bag/desk incase of battery/juice emergencies. lol.

My mom is coming to visit in a month (another 300 spent! family only seems to visit when I pay. LOL) because she is going to my re-mediation with my ex (-5K right now. fun times) and she's been smoking for nearly 50 years now. She started when she was 9! She smoked during all 4 of her pregnancies....and my dad talks about her brushing ashes off my cheek while I was nursing. Ew.
Going to try hard to convert her during her visit....and will probably end up passing on the cigalike or buying her a setup. Cuz i'm just that way. :)

If I order parts, yes, certainly. Mods and atomizers - not yet. Generally I'll try out some different juice or get a couple unnecessary things like drip tips, etc to "save" on shipping haha

just over 4 weeks in and I'm at about $410 (batteries, tanks, carriers, lots and lots of juice...). as a pack-a-day+ smoker in NJ ($8 to $9/pack), i'm about $100 in the hole right now, but i have enough juice to last me for a few months easily. if i didn't spend another dime on this hobby i'd be in the black in a couple weeks...but i know myself and i love this hobby, so i'm sure i'll be spending liberally for weeks/months to come.
