They received and shipped a partial batch to customers in the order they were purchased. If you preordered and didn't get shipping confirmation, you'll have to wait until next batch comes in.

Wow, I wonder how far back the preorders go then cause I preordered April 2. I chose black...I wonder if they're still waiting on the blacks and that's why I didn't get an email. O'well...not in a rush.
We've went this long. I'm sure most of us have multiple batteries. I just bought an M80 Plus v2 two weeks ago with the fixed temp control. I just purchased some Atlantis nic coils from VaporShark to try in my FreeMax Starre tank in the meantime.
No vendor seems to have the black model yet. My UK vendor, myepack.co.uk, seemed to suggest that he'd have it "in a week or so" when he received his full shipment. His first shipment, received today, was only 10 silver units. His statement was still a little ambiguous as to whether the big shipment coming next week will have the black or not - quite possibly he doesn't yet know himself.
That seems to match the pattern of US vendors being discussed here. It seems that Pioneer4You sent out small batches to all the vendors at the end of last week, and are preparing much bigger shipments for (hopefully) next week, including - again hopefully - the black model.
Have you checked the site? There is no Silver/Grey, as that model is no longer.. The only model they could have received in that small batch is the Silver/Black.
They said people will get to keep their spot in line if they choose to switch from the Silver/Grey to the Silver/Black if that is the model they preordered.

It works but will burn if the cotton is ridiculously dry, which I won't have to worry about with the Atlantis nic coil heads. I didn't buy the batt for that specific reason...I bought it for it's price($50), compact size, battery life and it can push 80w. Having a decent temp control is just icing. Same reason I bought the iPV4, battery life & it's more compact than my Sigelei 150.
Its a relatively compact 80w box mod with good battery life, I will 100% give it that. If the temp control works the same way with ni200 or kanthal, then I don't consider that a functional TC method.
Glad you like it.
It doesn't work in the way anyone would expect it to work - it doesn't do 'TC' in the expected sense. It has a pre-programmed range of wattages that it goes through according to the configured temperature and wattage, and possibly the starting resistance of the atty. It doesn't vary the wattages used as the resistance changes mid-fire.
So it basically tricks you into thinking it has (what we now call) TC, but if you probe a bit further it becomes apparent that it fires exactly the same wattages regardless of whether the coil is wet or dry - because it has no idea what temperature it's actually at.
It's quite easy to see if you watch the screen closely - e.g. on a 0.2 coil, set to 550F and 80W, it will first fire at 26.9W, then hover around 45, 44, 43 watts and slowly move down to the high 30s. Do that again when the same coil is bone dry and you can see it following the exact same series of figures.
Of course, that does "control temperature". It's just not what anyone would expect from "TC" in a post-DNA 40 vaping world (which the M80 was released into.) At first I gave them the benefit of the doubt, but then I realised it was a pretty blatant lie - firstly because they released it alongside their Ni200 coils, as if that was important (it's irrelevant because their 'TC' functions identically regardless of wire type; works the same with Kanthal), and later proved definitively when a YT reviewer, DJ Lsb, contacted a Smok representative and was told the reason it burns cotton is that, unlike the DNA 40, "it can't go below 7W." Which is both true and completely irrelevant to the point; it burns cotton because it has no idea what temperature that cotton is at! It will happily send 40W into bone dry cotton.
Everything else you said about the mod is true, though - and the same reason I bought it. It's an 80W mod with 4400mah internal batteries, decent resistance range, OK form factor, all for $50. Only trouble is that they're now starting to die in quite large numbers for quite a few people, so there's no great quality there. Fortunately mine still lives, but I can see it becoming my least-used mod once I have my IPV4 - if only to try and keep it alive a bit longer!
Ooh, MyEpack continue to cement their reputation as the best UK vendor by far.
They only received 10 IPV4 units today and therefore didn't put them on the website, they kept them aside for people who had contacted in advance asking about it - which luckily included me.
When I called at 1pm to place my order, I was told the main guy was out all day, but that his colleague had been told to expect my call. He duly put it through, but said completion would need to wait for the main guy to return at 5pm. I was concerned that as a result maybe it wouldn't go out today, but he said he hoped it'd be OK.
I got the usual "Sale complete" emails earlier as hoped for. But then just now, I got a UPS shipping notification. This is my sixth order from them but the first on UPS - all the others were sent regular Royal Mail. I am pretty sure they sent it UPS especially to ensure I got it tomorrow, as the main guy didn't get back in time to send it out Royal Mail. Which is triply nice, as it also means I now have tracking, and the shipping was still free!
That, ladies and gents, is good service! Now I just need to work on them to increase their product selection by a factor of about 5, and then I'll never need to shop anywhere else

So is GB wallet a store credit? If so, I'd be calling my credit card company right quick for a charge back.
Yeah store credit lol. Thankfully I used paypal, I replied asking them to refund me in paypal, if there are any issues I will just lodge a dispute.
Read the very last part, you can request refund through your initial payment method, although that should be the case from the get go.

Thanks, I see that now. Still, something about these guys seems shady to me.
I ordered a Cloupor mini a while back, no issues except that it took a long time. First time dealing with their customer support though so we'll see.
Odd I did not get that message from them and they are still accepting orders for the item. Did either of you have the black model selected? I had the silver selected.
