I just got my Vamo delivered yesterday and it is awesome! Exhale vapors with coupon code gets the Vamo for under $40 shipped. Stainless steel is great. I do have a problem with the bottom cap not swrewing in properly into the center section and I think it is becasue is was cross threaded... Waiting to get a response back from Exhale vapors about a replacement (I hope).

According to the website info, it takes approx 10 - 14 days. I ordered mine last Monday 05/06 and got it today. I'm still waiting on the other package I ordered (same day, different vendor) but per the updates it should be here tomorrow maybe? There are expedited shipment options you can choose that would cost a little more but provide a speedier delivery. Some have received theirs quicker, some slower. It depends on so many circumstances like customs, methods of shipment (hong kong post, usps, etc.,). I just went with regular delivery but for me, thus far, less than the maximum time suggested. Believe it or not, the bulk of my delay in receipt was caused once the packages got stateside.

Also, if you order from an overseas vendor, don't expect instantaneous shipping information updates (package movement). It took a few days for each of my packages to show being shipped but once the information was updated, the packages were already in transit. Not seeing an instant update and wondering what's going on can be a little disconcerting.

thanks for your help candik.. im thinking that might be the best buy you gave me!!

You are most welcome! I was fortunate to have the same information shared with me by another member here when I was shopping around. It's only right to continue the sharing! Happy vaping to you! Oh,, don't forget to use the coupon code CPASTE13SPRING for fasttech. It'll save you 5%. Another great place (besides here of course!) to find good deals on stuff is vaporjoes.blogspot.com He's not affiliated with any vendor but has dedicated himself to posting deals and stuff vape related. He updates daily. If you opt to do the vaporbreak for the body only, make sure you create an account (it's free) and it'll show you a better price than the one listed. Both sites use paypal.

Spinner is giving me grief today, again, and my twist needs a charge. Panic time? No, my Vamo came today and the supplied battery has enough juice to get me by in the meantime.

This thing is a hoss. Big and heavy. Makes my KPTs look tiny. Mine is black chrome, so it's really fingerprinty, but I like chrome. If I had to do it over, it would have been gun metal or SS (Stainless Steel). Trying to find that wattage sweet spot, which seems to be around 7watts.

Have to agree that the Vamo is the way to go... I have both also and the Vamo is by far the better of the two... The Lavatube is so lightweight it feels like plastic... Here's a link to where I got mine... cheapest vamo mod vv vw starter kit Yes, they're in China, but I've found the shipping is fast (11 days from there to Florida) and you can't beat the prices... They've also got juice and clearos and vivi Novas at super good prices too... :)
