Hey there! I'll start with an introduction. I'm Spencer, I've been vaping for about 4 years now, going on 5. I started out with V2 Cigs, and actually stuck with them for quite some time, however I always used e-smart clearos with them since the v2 carts/clearos are ridiculous. I've owned a few mods over time, but they didn't work out well for me due to poor choices. I'm receiving an N-Fire S2 here in a few weeks and looking forward to that piece of art. I'm from Texas, however I was raised in Washington State. I'm an extremely direct writer, which usually gives off a wrong impression of hostility or malicious intent in my replies. So I certainly feel as though I should include that in my introduction. I am an open-minded person and try to avoid conflicts, since a young age I've been Buddhist. And really to be quite honest I'm not sure what else to include without getting very personal, feel free to ask questions though as I am an open book. Unless things get sketchy 
So I noticed there's a reasonable 5 post limit before you can leave this area, it's rather unfortunate, however, as I've been part of many communities both as a member and administrator (usually for dedicated server management); I absolutely understand! But i do have a rather important question that I'd like to include in this, and if a mod would like to move this post to a good section, I'd appreciate that greatly. If I seem sketchy or spammy to any staff members, you're welcome to ask for my skype information and we can have a face-to-face chat in hopes to resolve any problems.
Question time:
I purchased a Smoktech Prospect E-pipe. It was hard to find a seller, especially with the blue-chrome version. I did find a seller, they looked legit as any other, and purchased it. The E-pipe arrived today, about 6 hours before this posting. Now, in the few video reviews I've seen, most in German, the box included a metal pipe drip tip and a tank (not sure of the brand or type). I also believe it came with the appropriate battery, but I'm not absolutely sure unlike the other parts mentioned. The listing by the way, didn't say if it included really anything, so I just hoped it would include what appeared to be stock for this item.
Here it goes. I open the neat box, and see the beautiful E-pipe (looks better than in pictures!). And then, as I've seen in videos, I lift the section casing the pipe to reveal the large space below it - clearly made for extras! - nothing was there.
So I've run into a big problem, I didn't expect a battery, so I was smart enough to order one at the same time as well as a nitecore intelli i2 charger as I saw recommended on these forums for these batteries. There was no drip tip, disappointing but okay. I order some cool cheap ones from china and they'll be here within a year (yay!). There was no clearo/tank/atomizer that should most certainly be a default item! (why else have a removable compartment with nothing but space for that stuff?) I feel as though I shouldn't bother submitting a complaint, the page was written so scarcely it's almost meant to trick you.
Here's what I really need help with, now that you have the background information.
I need to get a clearo/tank that's under $30 and reliable, and the replacement atomizer heads/coils/etc need to be cheap in bulk, at least $11 for 5. They also need to be good though. This is quite the challenge! In the future I look forward to making my own coils as I've done in the past and applying that to the pipe for fantastic vapor, but I need something that will still provide great vapor and not have to be replaced constantly as I cannot afford that. The aesthetics matter tremendously to me, but if it comes to to ultimate reliability and surprising vapor/cheap prices then of course I'll use that until I can upgrade.
What I've found that seems absolutely amazing is SMOK Revive DCT (sorry, can't do links!) from Smoktech (ice blue). But I cannot find where to buy and have no idea of the alibaba (only place selling them??) mechanics. I also have no idea what the price is, and how much the replacement parts are. There's no denying that's the best look I could get for my prospect however.
You have my sincerest apologies if I have broken any rules (I only skimmed them, to be honest. Most forum rules are usually the same).
Best regards and happy to join,
