Thank you all for the replies. I figured it should be good, i mean who knows i could get lucky and get the "1 in 10" box...

I don't have to much when it comes to the mods... I only have a istick 50w and two aspire ego batteries that quite frankly not even my girlfriend can use anymore. I got this in the hops that i would receive something i can replace my istick with so i can give it too my girlfriend. I dont really need the tank or RDA as i already have a nautilus mini I'm going to give my girlfriend, a aspire Atlantis, a magma clone, and a mutation x clone. (Not that i wont play around with whatever i get :) )

I'm kinda having a bit of buyer remorse cause when i think about it the only way this really pans out for me is if i get really lucky with the 1 in 10 box and get a 100W box mod or something as i could have just taken the 40$ and bought my girlfriend an 30W istick or something.

I am interested in trying out a Mech mod, but it scares me a bit as i dont think i really know enough about them yet....All i know is how to use wattage.....

Don't sweat it so much just do some reading and make sure you have the right stuff to check your builds. I vape mechs exclusively and with enough time and bananas I could teach a monkey to use one. Hope it's a nice mystery score. :thumbs:

I'm just waiting to see what you get.

Good luck! I hope it's what you want (and who doesn't want a mod and an atty? Lol)

So my box came today. Not really sure what to make of it at the moment.

I got a Cherry Bomber MOD clone.... im not sure how i feel about this yet because i have no idea how to use it.... came with 2 efest 2800mAh lithium ion batterys.... This kinda scares the crap out of me... I dont wanna blow myself up lol....The box looks really cool

I also got a Smoke caterpiller RDA it looks ok but i cant even get the thing open... looks like they sell for around 12$ so im sure its nothing special.

2 30ml of cloud sauce, grape candy and vanilla bean ice cream...

so i guess i got "70$ worth of stuff" but didnt blow my socks off.....then again maybe ill change my mind when i learn how to use the mod......can anyone help me with that???

Read up on battery safety and ohms law. You also need to get a multimeter to test your batteries after each charge, and your builds incase you don't own an ohm-meter.
Some cherry bombers got issues with them autofiring, so read up on cherry bomber mod aswell. Apart from how to use a mech.

@Baditude got great bloggs about batteries and i think mechs aswell if my minds doesn't fail me.
The forums for mechs:
Mechmods | E-Cigarette Forum
Your first Mod (Mechanical MODs 101) | Olympia Vapor Works
101 on Mech Mods (Pt.1) : electronic_cigarette
Mechanical Mod Beginners Guide
And some links i could find about it.

Once you get a hang of building, using a mech isn't all that hard. :) Just requires some mantaince to have it clean and good batteries.
Since the cherry is parallel box mod you'll have to be extra cautious that you are "marrying" the batteries. That means only use those set of batteries in that mod. to drain them equally down/charge them at the same time.

And another important part is having a good charger for the batteries. Such as Nitecore or Xtar brands.
I hope this helped out a little bit. :) I'm not the best in explaining things so that's why i provided the links. :)

Yea i feel ya, to me it seems like these packages are made to make you purchase more stuff unless you already had them.
Altho a good charge never hurts to own, and they're quite cheap if you buy them from FT but you'll have to wait ages to get it though. But might be worth considering. :)

If the B&M stores doesn't want to trade, maybe you should get verified here on ECF and try the classifieds and trade with someone. :)

Edit: Or you could save it for the day you feel ready to try the mech territory. :)
Mechs got their pros & cons just like regulateds, so it doesn't hurt to own a few mechs aswell.
I personally only use mechs due how reliable they are.(I don't own a cherry though) But there's abit of a learning curve for sure which might be intimedating.

Yea its very intimidating to me. Scares the crap out of me... I don't really understand it too well to be honest with you even after reading lots on it. The thing that scared me even more is this Cherry bomber seems like its even more complicated then the single tube mechs.... I was honestly hoping to get something a bit more simple out of this mystery box so i could give my 50w istick to my girlfreind... Honestly I'm quite dissapointed. But thats what i get for taking a gamble instead of just spending the 40$ on a 30w for her.
