Joyetech Evic VT 60 Watt

[Shigura]

Well looks like a bit of sleuthing has turned up a site that will begin to take preorders although I do not when but here it is in its glory:
Joyetech VT 60w | MelodyVapes.com

To note: this elegomall or whichever has since removed their blog posting about the preorder and is no where on that site

Holy S%*$ found another site but in german that is listing preorder sales now for the device but your looking at $140 for this mod. And this site (in french) jfl-pro.com is selling them for $89. Sheesh wonky europeans and there different price points lol (j/k!).

$90 sounds good to me

The eVic Supreme is $159, so if this thing is for real, I doubt it will be less than that.

With this many pictures showing up this thing must be for real
Joyetech eVic VT? - e-cigSerbia Forum

Joyetech goes TC - E-Wolk - Dampforum.nu

Yea it sure is and will be not like it was becoming an urban legend lol.

That logic makes sense, but the landscape of mods and pricing has changed a lot in the last 6 months or so. 50w mods are $50 any day of the week. And sometimes even at local b&m for that price or slightly higher. When the Supreme came out, it's price was a reflection of the time... Today, $90 is more in line with a China made device IMHO.

Those $200 to $350 box mods (hana anyone?) in my opinion are over. $150 is the new $350.

I honestly don't see this mod being more then $60 (pretty lowball I know) if the general scheme of TC mods coming out of china relates to this.
About the 250-300 range unfortunately is still sticking around. I was putzing around vapordna and they're about to sell a $300 VF dna 40 with a White cerakote finish. Looks sick AF but good luck to them to try to sell it. Honestly knowing diehards and fans I'm sure it will sellout.

Top shelf Joyetech products have never been cheap, affordable, but not cheap. The Yihi SX-M ($180) is selling like hotcakes, and most comparable DNA40 devices are well north of $100, so I still don't see why this TC device will be anything less than $150....but that would sure be nice if it is!

Well I was pretty sure I'm low balling it on the price lol but there is a preorder for $90 usd on a french site (not that it means much). We'll see tho the competition is "heating" up... Haha ok ok terrible pun giving the mod.

I really hope you're right. If it's a Joyetech device that works as well as everything else I've ever owned of theirs, AND it's under $100, I'll own one sooner than expected....and a whole lot of other people will too!

Hey guys if your on Reddit and want to drop a comment on Smog's post about seeing if anyone wants this here it is:
Anybody interested in the Joyetech Evic VT?

With all due respect to Vaporflask. After a dna40 retrofit, I can't see a $240+ price differences between the authentic and a clone with a real dna40. The quality of my waidea is excellent (case/shell/enclosure). The only weak points are the buttons which seem to be chrome plated brass? Or plastic. That's it. AFAIK.

I'd be willing to bet the evic VT (or whatever) will be under $100. These guys (Joyetech eleaf) are smart. Sell more at lower margins, but sell Em by the thousands. It really does make better business sense. At least to me it does.

Considering that the VT appears to have cast metal top and bottom plates and an extruded main body vs the previous eVic, which has machined Stainless steel body, top cap, bottom cap, and control ring, then maybe they are planning on a much more affordable device. I guess we'll find out soon enough. (I'm still betting it'll be in the $150 neighborhood)

 

[NotableVirtues]

I have had more than a few devices with more than one button and all but the fire button failed: that being said, the one button could fail, then your SOOL.

I am looking forward to this pricey little jem.

Looks like joyetech's price will be $120-130, which probably means around $100 at most vendors. Hope it works well.

 

[BNEAT]

Cool! Where did you see this info?

 

[sando7]

the blk one looks good to me, have never owned a Joytech product.... yet i have never herd anything bad about them, just glad to see more new tech becoming available and this i like.

I know that I found a french site that is preordering few days ago for about 79 euros which translates to about $90 usd.

However it will be easily over that amount due to shipping and what looks like a tax
