Is a fake 510 worth buying to save 50%?

[Andervil]

Hey, so as i assumed, a site that i was dealing with does not have authentic joye 510s. The price of there 510's is 50% that of an authentic one. From my understanding, non-authentic 510's are still fairly high quality and a great way to vape. Your thoughts?
What is your opinion of getting a fake 510 starter kit, and slowly upgrading with authentic joye parts as things break?
thanks in advance

Do you have a link to the site?

Some of the 510's are reverse polarity. I have both and like both (joye and not joye). I can't really say which is better because I've had the Joye longer and don't use them a lot. Both give a good vape, except for battery life, but that's a given with small pvs.

There is a supplier here that carries inexpensive 510. He's a great supplier but if you get the 510 from him and you purchase other 510 batteries somewhere else, you won't be able to charge them both with the same charger. I believe it's called the FS510- something like that. Dormouse would know.

I got my Joye ego here-

JOYE510 Standard Starter Kit - $40.00 : Rocky Mountain Vapor, The Mountain top of Electronic Cigarettes

He has a 20% off sale- use the code '20rocky'.

I also got this kit for someone- comes with a little pcc. It's discounted because they spelled 'smoke' as 'smole'

280mAh battery

2 month warranty

great customer service so far. they claim the quality is just as good as the joyes.

if I could find an authentic joye for ~35 and cheap shipping (preferably within USA, but not necessary) I'd pick it up. But so far I cant find anything cheaper than these guys. Healthcabin.net seems good/cheap too (but authentic?). I'm hoping a reputable dealer will be having a massive new years sale.

 

[Andervil]

wow, rocky mountain seems like its a winner. swedish... these guys are good?

 

[swedishfish]

They are, but looking at that pic, that's for an 510-t and that's not what he has at RMV. His 510-T is $46.
I don't know what shipping is but the one you found seems to be a better deal.

Not trying to talk you out of what you want to purchase, but you can get a bigger battery model for less money.

Whichever you decide on, I'd also pick up a box of boge 3.0 cartomizers. So much easier than the cart/atty and great as a backup if you decide you don't want to use the tanks.

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

The batteries are only 280 mah- very small
100 mah= 1 hour vaping.
Here's a great deal- 25% off for the T-Rex thanks to swedishfish I bought 4:

Someone had some european egos and 510's that were reverse polarity. I don't think it's the norm. And he did mention it on his website, and that's why they were super cheap. Someone didn't realize it I guess and went through about 5 batteries before someone here figured out what the issue was.

 

[dormouse]

It will probably be OK as long as they are manual and not FS510 (FS510 is reverse electrical polarity and its charger fries normal 510's and vice versa)

My best expierience has been with the authentic Joyetech products. I buy most of my e-cigs from mikeusa.com I wanted the best products possible because if my e-cig lets me down i would be more apt to get analogs. I went authentic and believe i found the best source for the best price.
