yeah, the problem first started with my bottle that i keep tastyfinger in, then i switched over to mint choco ship and was in pretty good shape most of the day, when i opened it up to change the batts/refill the bottle, it had leaked all over the place again
ok, i figured this out now, it's leaking from where the tube connects to the brass feed fitting, a small leak, but a leak none the less, i saw a srop coming from the delrun cover that covers the firing pin and the hose, i unscrewed it and looked in there, there is where the juice is leaking from.
upon further examination, the feed tube has a tiny hole in it

Talk to Rob, but, if it is just the tube, you should be able to replace it yourself. One of our REOnauts (?) got 12' of replacement tubing and he is giving pieces away if you send him a SASE. I'll edit when I find out who.
yeah, i "fixed" it, cut the tube right at the little tear and put it back on, only thing is now the tube doesnt reach the bottom of the bottle =(
Do you vape all the way to the bottom? Just asking, I get too worried that I may run out and usually refill about 2/3 empty.
not usualy, but sometimes it does happen, i usualy refill whenever i change my batts
Found it http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/reos-mods/95123-reo-grand-opening-sale-6970.html#post2789760 PM thedeserttortoise
Great detective work Steve....so now that you have fixed it....get a hold of Rob and see if you can get some more tubing to replace. I have one that I cut short for another reason and now I'm irritated with it so I'm gonna replace it with a spare piece I have here. Keep us posted. 
honestly, the leaking is not what bothered me, it was a slow tiny leak, the fact that i could not find the reason for the leak was really really making me mad
I'm sorry that it had to be you...but without your diligence, I would never have thought of that on my own....and you'd be crazy mad by now I'm sure. I'm so glad you found it. And now I know if this happens to come up again.

Glad you found it, I felt bad didn't wan't you thinking I sold you a bum unit.
I've seen in a couple of reviews where people have their tube too far out of the bottle and its kinking ....
I always adjust mine each fill so the line is straight and the bottle just touches the bottom of the mod so the bottle doesn't rattle.
I actually grab the tube and slide the cap way up.... then when the bottle is on all I do is slide it back down to where I want it.

that's what i do all the time too, honestly i think the tube might have just been showing its age. the very top of it was very brittle, i only had to cut like 1/8th of an inch off of it anyways,
I will add some replacement tubing to the sight tonight I just got a bunch of it
Ditto - I try to keep the tube pretty straight on mine, too. I've run somewhere between 450-500 ml of juice through my first Mini, and no problems. But I bought some spare tubing a while back just to have on hand.
