Your not alone! I bought about $500 my first month vaping..keeps gettin more expensive lol
- Status
I can't stop buying and I'm not working right now. That's commitment. It seems every order I place averages $30 but there are many $30 purchases.
I literally sit at mt desk with a ego-t 1000 mah passthru, an 1100 mah KGO, and an ego twist with cartomizers everywhere, a vivi nova, and some Stardust and go between the three vaping flavor after flavor while on this site I see something cool, go to that vendor and I'm off again. If I had the money I'd probably buy most everything out there. It's better than collecting Zippo's.

It almost never ends -- plus you start really liking your old ones and are hesitant to part with 'em -- well, its better than smoking, right? 
I'm ashamed to tell you how much I've spent in the month I've been vaping. I think I'm done buying mods for now. (Got my eye on the new purple Provari thats not available yet) But when I find a new juice, I want to get the bigger bottle right then so I dont run out of it!!!
You know once I got my Provari, I was satisfied with the power source, but I love the size of egos, so had to have a twist and couple of VV egos too. That is all I use now. What I am a junkie about is changing flavors constantly so that means alot of delivery systems which for me equals tanks. And of course I prefer glass, hand blown beautiful tanks, that sparkle in the sun 
LOL Can't get enough! But i can see like my addiction some would love collecting the power sources, which is mods. I think whatever keeps you from smoking cigs is a win win, someday all our collections will be worth alot of money as antiques! ha ha They hey day of vaping. bnrk

I dont understand why you would need more mods if you already have too many mods. I think you should settle with one for the time being and adopt your hobby to a better use which is juice hunting. Try to find as many solid e-liquids you can savor as that I think is the real quest for new comers like us. Hope everyone agrees with this approach to fund our new hobby. Happy Vaping
What don't you understand? I need a Mod for each juice... I won't be satisfied until then.
Besides, how is juice hunting a "better-use" for your hobby? I personally find juice hunting sort of annoying: tasting a crap ton of mediocre juices ? That sounds like a terrible time, and expensive! ...
and "Settling" for ONE Mod? That's just about the silliest thing I've ever heard!
Needing a mod for each juice sounds extravagant. 9 Mods 9 Juices. Sorry if I ruined your moment but I am just not in your league. I guess I am just silly not getting infatuated with the idea and spending senseless amount. Please pardon me
Oh man.. i thought Provari is da bomb.. no offense Provarian.. i have 4 of those.. just chatting with some other vaper. Now i got my eyes on the GGTS plus i need to find the kick which it is on notify me mode for most of the store's. I think i like it because first it is really hard to get plus the the build quality and clever design that suits most of the batteries.. Example i recently bought my new car, i have to wait and bid to get it (need to bid as only a few will arrive to Malaysia) even though you have money still hard to own them. As technology and artistic of mods going to evolve itself, we as vapers will always spend to get the best or reliable one's. I consider this as a hobby and as long as i need to get far away from analogs i'll spent it i guess..

I'm exaggerating,... but I'm making the point that I'll probably be eternally dissatisfied.
I've only been at it a month and have already accumulated 15+ flavors. There's no way I could actually get a Mod per... Sheeeooot, I have more flavors already in the mail!
Some of us just need MORE.
I have to agree!! I started a week ago.. I have been back to buy mods and juice three times since and already thinking of checking out a different shop on the way home! 
It is quickly becoming a hobby and it keeps me smoke free so I just cant fight it!! Plus it is definitel a good conversation starter!

I feel your pain. I struggled also until I found my sweet spot. I now have a vtube and vivinova ... Wish I had them all along and not sucked into buying more china junk.
My opinion: Just find your sweet spot, and just stop lol.

I also have G.A.S. (Gear Aquisition Syndrome) but as this vapin' thing is my only vice, what the hey? Just got my e-pipe mods Flared Dublin together with a long tortois shell church warden stem, small smoktech tank w/ SINGLE COIL 2 Ohm cartos. Very nice clouds of... Anyway pipes are the current pursuit and with being able to use low ohm gear for 3.7 to 4.2 volts I'll be happy for a few weeks and be able to give the Provari, 3 GLV', 3 Ego Twists, silver bullet etc. a rest. Hey OP! Give it another year and you will have had to get a bigger box to put all yer gear and juice in!
I'm 4 weeks in...
My average spending and I'm a bit ashamed to admit has been close to 1,000 dollars a week. So I guess I'm in it for the long haul if I'm ever going to be in the black. I must say this includes me buying fairly comprehensive setups for of my parents as well.
However, I haven't had a single cigarette so overall it's a win. I'm also starting to recover and my cardio work outs have gone through the roof in the last week so that alone is worth my price of admission.

Expensive hobby and i agree with 79Silo, as long as i get off analogs, its worthy every penny. Just ordered 2 GG Penelope, one for my Provari and the other, for a GGTS in hope i can get one 
I know! It's crazy how much you can spend on these things! I'm getting a 2nd battery, but for right now im sticking to menthol e-juice.
I can definitely turn into a hobby real fast. I'd be spending a lot more on juice and mods if I had the cash. Just have fun with it!
I'm too poor.
It usually takes me about 2 months between orders and I MIGHT experiment with new cartomizers and juice, but for the most part I don't have enough money to buy all these mods and juice from 20 different vendors.

Some days I wonder where all the extra money came from, since I was deficit spending until just recently. But I managed.
BEEN VAPING FOR BOUT MONTHS AND ALREADY I HAVE 9 DIFFERENT MODS, THE KICK , JUICE OUT THE WAZOO, I KNOW I QUIT SMOKING FOR THIS BUT IT IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL, I LOVE ALL THE DIFFERENT MODS AND JUICE FLAVORS, IT IS LIKE A HOBBY.
SOME PEOPLE COLLECT KNICK KNACKS, OR WHATEVER, ME I COLLECT MODS, THEY ARE WORKS OF ART, ESPECIALY THE WOODEN BOX MODS, I LOVE VAPINN ALL THE DIFFERENT UNITS, USUALLY I HAVE 3 OR 4 MODS OUT AT A TIME, SOME MODS ARE BETTER FOR CERTAI JUICES, SOME JUICES ARE BEST IN CERTAIN MODS, I REALLY BECOME FOND OF BOBBAS BOUNTY AND THR GORRILLA JUICE, I JUST RECENTLY MADE THE MOVE TO TRYPINK SPOT AND SEE WHAT THE HYPE IS AND HERE WE GO AGAIN, JUICE JUICE JUICE, ITS NEVER ENDING, ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS PROBLEM??????????
Ah yup. I just recently switched from an e-cig stick to one Ego Twist 650. Then I got the 1000, my purple 650 just arrived in the mail today. Tried different cartos and tanks and clearomizers, bits, pieces, parts. Tried a few different juices till I found two that I loved. But it's never ending! Since I'm getting into these Ego batteries, there's so much more to buy! I spend hours online checking new things out, looking at other people's setups, then thinking I want try that, too! It's awesome to order online then waiting anxiously to get your order in the mail. I haven't gotten into the mods yet, that will be a whole nuther thang! Oh and don't forgot to need to have a place to put all this stuff. Finally had to get a little ten drawer cart on wheels. Not all ten drawers are filled...yet! Now, who was it said you'd save money if your switched from regular cigarettes to electronic cigarettes? =]
there should be a sticky in the new members section that says:
"Warning! vaping can turn you into a shopaholic and hoarder"
Katatonik, I am also poor, I also don't have a mod. I want a reo but I guess I will have to wait until someone gets hit in the head by a rock and decides to sell one to me for a crazy low price lol. I keep myself ignorant about some of the more expensive ones like the ggts things, that way I don't want one but hey, my little joye 510 and egos work fine
