Well done.

I ordered my first REO (a blue and black Grand) about 2 months after beginning vaping. The difference in vapor production and throat hit and flavor between a Bloog 808 cig-a-like and a REO Grand with a 510 atomizer on top is mind-blowing. that original REO Grand is the one pictured in my avatar. Best purchase I ever made, to date.

Congrats on your new REO.

You are on your way to a terrific vaping experience with a REO! Congrats on your purchase!

I bought my first REO, a Grand, in the classy's. Back then in early 2011 there were not any on the REO site. So, I grabbed one when it was offered!

Best thing I ever did! The REO's have given me a hassle free way to vape. No mess, no fuss, just the magic that is a REO!

I ordered an olive drab blem (shout out St. Patty's Day) with RM2 this morning. Holy cow! I'm so excited that I'm pretty sure my heart is beating a few clicks faster than normal :D

Anyone want to share their story of ordering their first REO? Hopefully all this excitement doesn't put me into cardiac arrest lol

Congrats! Yes, I was just as nervous and excited pressing that "Buy" button, too! I was thrilled and excited, but at the same time, still a little appalled that I just spent $200 (plus $60 for batteries, chargers, ohm meter, and wire---WHAT AM I DOING!). My previous setup cost me a whopping $40 (the MVP2, iClear 30 included), so that was a psychological hurdle I had to jump over.

I am SO glad I did it though! What can I say! REOS ROCK! Everything everyone here says about them is TRUE 100%! You WILL want more, you will likely not want to use any of your other vape gear ever again, and you will tell anyone that will listen (and won't care if they won't) how awesome it is!

Congrats!! I bought my Grand when we had to wait for sales and hope we could get one. I had read that the best way was to register on the site and be signed in, so I was all ready to go the minute they came online. My purchase order number was 735. My order last night (another RM2) was 13107. My first Grand works and looks as good as it did the day I received it.

ROFL!!!

Same here. But I was a little nervous as I was leaving my comfort zone of just popping in a spare atomizer head when out and about. But as soon as I received my first one, easypeashy!

Indeed, the early days were an adventure -the site bogged down with everyone doing constant refreshes waiting for the final seconds to tick down until the sale began, and the the onslaught of orders would hit, bringing it to its knees. And if you were lucky, when the dust cleared, you had a REO checked out in your cart. I can't find the e-mail from my first Mini's order, but it was on Sept. 24, 2010.

my Reos, I sent a money order- couldn't get PayPal to work with my card.

didn't receive tracking, long holiday weekend.. a torturous wait! as soon as Rob said it was shipped Tuesday, and that day being Wednesday, I called it a day at work and went home to wait impatiently for the mailman!

I did all the housework, had the table cleared off, dinner going in the crock already.. kids at their dads' for school vacation.. giving loves to my MVP for the last time.. bouncing out of my skin, peeking out the shades every few minutes.. and then they arrived. and I was so excited, I didn't even know what to do first!

About this time in 2011 I went from a 510 cig-a-like to an Old Goat Bottom Feeder to see if I liked the concept. After using it for a while, I was sold. So I got my first Mini REO and now I've got four of 'em. I always get excited when there's a new one on the way. I jumped right over all the interim gear and went straight to the serious vaping stuff. :D I've never regretted it for a moment.

Congrats, enjoy the vape :toast: :vapor:

When I got my first REO (Black/silver vein) which was 6 REO's ago, I slapped an Atomizer which was 8 REM's ago, and have yet to put it down. All my other mods, Provari's, SVD's, Vamo's etc, as well as various tanks, are all gathering dust. Nothing compares to REO's, and Rob's customer svc is the best.....simply said! :)

Congrats on the new addition to the family. You're one step ahead of me because I've yet to pull the Reo trigger. I know...I know...what's wrong with me? :p
