Unfortunately, the otto Carto Tribal is out of stock. So, no can do right now...I do love the GG's and have the Just GG/Ithaka, and really feel no need to get yet another Mech, so other than dressing up a GG, where else is there to go? Even Imeo says he will be no longer producing mechanicals and will enter the world of APV's, as he has nowhere left to go on mechanicals. Can't wait. Anything from Imeo will make my collection. Seriously, though, I can't pay $3,000 for a mechanical, but might if money were no object. I see the Otto Carter/GG mechanical over the Caravella....though I do have a $30 Sigelei clone (8w).
I like the German/Russian stuff and love the Semovar/Kayfun combo. I need the Kayfun Mini 2.1 and the mechanical pieces that have not been produced yet, otherwise I'm all set, in semi-polished.
I just tricked out my Black Satin/Blue LED Provari with a Cingulum Compleo set in polished brass. My Satin Silver Mini Provari uses Tatroe rings/Base and SvoeMesto cone ring. So, I'm pretty much done with Provari now.
I want a good DNA 20/30 tube APV, so maybe the Futura, when it's available. I think they're all pre-order now. Also, the new DNA chip will be released on December 27, 2013, so I will wait for the new chip before I order the Titanium Futura. Right now it looks like the best DNA APV for me. We shall see....not yet a fan of bottom feeders, but they will be a 2014 project for me.
The diamond encrusted ego with 240 2 carat diamonds is not for me. For $700,000, I'm going to have to insist on variable wattage, and Ohm meter, and an upgrade to a CE clearo.....but that's just me.
I feel blessed to be vaping in the Golden Age of Vaping that we are in. I've had a lot of gear, gone through a significant thin the herd stage and have learned that these devices do hold their value quite well. Many of the top of the line, limited production/edition gear does increase in value, and do provide a better vaping experience to me. YMMV. It's fun to dream. Me likee!
