Meh bummer. That dude had been facing a month delay in the shipment of his products (I know because I had been pestering him on eBay hahaha
) but now that it's here, turns out that there's been a HUGE compromise in the quality and manufacturing process. What a shame; I'm a huge fan of the finish on it Burping out loud using Tapatalk

Yeah I feel bad for him too. Getting things hung up in foreign customs is never a fun time.
The matte sandblasted finish is really nice, but it isn't even on the two I received. This is the first rba I've ever received with sand actually inside of it.
All the problems I've had all point to a rush in production or the manufacturer cutting costs on things such as proper screws, etc.
I'm hoping through constructive feedback and honest opinions the seller will have these things corrected in the next batch. He shipped really fast and was pleasant to deal with. I have communicated my intent to return along with the issues I've found and am just waiting to here back.

Thank you sir! I will be ordering one soon. Just hope it doesn't leak like the last one I had. Had to return it.

People taking advantage.
Only Black Edition Anything I'd trust is PrivateDeal's KFL+BE
Everyone else seems to be trying to ride his coat tails to selling success.
That said, I will buy cheaper devices.......but I fully expect the Cheaper price to go along.
$14 Kayfun Lite from Fasttech ROCKS
Tempted to order a few more and have them drilled to add Plus afc.

I'm tempted to wait, but not too long

Privatedeal gets pretty frequent stocks (approx a month).
I would wait; I'm honestly a really huge fan of the current black edition.
Although having said that, it does seem like the threads on the base is a little off this time round. I see some people on this forum and others talking about their nano kits and stuff not fitting on it. So you def wanna watch out for that.

I haven't tried knocking a bit of the edge off the threads yet.
The M tank I got with it fits fine on my R91 though.
I'll give the threads a go when I finish the MBV Dutch Apple Pie in it that ain't even gonna get wasted.
Your best bet would be to find him on eBay and PM him. He'll let you know when he's expecting stock.
Yeah exactly. Turned out that the m tank fits every other sections and base from my clones and authentics. It seems almost definite that the threads on the new BE base is different. ALTHOUGH my metal tank sections from other kayfuns fit perfectly fine. No clue

Are those solid stainless?
Received my BE today, ordered from vox vapes off eBay. Looks and works great, fast shipping! Came with solid SS tank, regular clear tank, and a single full length clear tank. Has the deeper juice wells and bottom air adjustment screw. No whistle sound on mine, very pleased.
Well now I feel cheated because mine didn't come with a full length clear tank, lol.
I haven't used it yet because I'm new to building coils, but it seems good quality. Goes together nicely and is actually really great looking. I can't wait to mess with it this weekend to see what I can do.
Hola! Just got a reply from privatedeal today and he has a website! Www.custommodcreation.com.
Apparently you can preorder the black editions for just 39.90. That's pretty swell although it makes me realize how much profit margin each one is hahahaha. Just in case anyone is interested

I don't think it's as black and white as you're making it out to be. While it's true that there are a lot of authentic mods/devices that operate better or have better build quality than the clones, there are plenty of clones that either (a) outperform or improve on the original design, or (b) are so close in performance that it's hard to tell the difference.
I know this is a touchy subject, and I realize that there are people on both sides of the fence. I am certainly not a supporter of replicas. I view them differently than I would a 'clone'. I don't mind someone taking a design that works, and implementing it through their own brand at a far more affordable price than what the original producer could.
If clones allow those that can't afford the originals to have the same quality vape as the original (or close to it) and it helps keep them off of analogs, then I say rock on.
I have purchased both originals and clones, sometimes of the same device and I have had instances where the clone is a complete piece of garbage and I have had others that have been as good as or better than the original, while costing, in some cases, over $150 less. I've even had cases where I've purchased the clone first, and liked it so much that I then went out and bought the original.
To each his own on this one. If it works for you and keeps you off of analogs, then go for it, clone or not. If you can stay away from the full-on replicas that clone the logos themselves then do that, because that's not just copying a proven design, that's complete misrepresentation, but otherwise, get what works and what you can afford.
^ true that.
Tbh IMO the only edge that authentics have over some really good clones is manufacturing consistency. This is esp true for kayfun and their clones.
I've have clones that are utter rubbish. I've also had clones that have performed indistinguishably from authentic kayfuns. and that's coming from someone who has had 10 authentics.
The thing is with the authentic kayfun, you're almost certainly guaranteed a solid product for each purchase. Clones on the other hand have hits and misses here and there. An example would be the black edition clones. Just from my personal experience, they've been the best clone out there, and I've owned 14 clones. But even for them, the V1 had juice channels that were shallower and didn't work for some. Some had extra tight airflow, some were fine. And even while the v2 has had HUGE improvements and is now a ridiculously good product, it still has some issues here and there (eg threading on the base is not universally compatible with some after-market atty parts.
While I would have agreed that clones are inferior 6 months ago, but damned Chinese really know how to clone their stuff. My nemesis clone has a lower voltage drop that my authentic. My black edition kayfuns have performed impeccably. It's just a little bit of a game of Russian roulette that's all

whats the difference between the 2 Black Editions? One is $39.99 and pre order, the other is $49.99 ships now, I don't see the difference
I think he's just made an error with the description since it's the first day of the site. They aren't in stock which is why there's a pre-order option. A 20% savings isn't a bad deal, considering the more up front cash he gets the more he can order and the more he makes. If I had a spare 40 bucks I'd order today.
