I've been handing out freebies and selling clones super cheap to friends and foes alike when they seem the least bit interested in vaping. Some I never see the device again, others have asked me for a second to have a backup so they can lay down analogs for good. Now I have a few that want to upgrade but are living paycheck to paycheck and just don't have the confidence in vaping to drop their whole 50 dollar weekly budget for analogs on a vaping device.

I'm trying to put together a decent setup that will get them a glass tank and something VV. I've found a decent VV deal at fasttech but I want to get a pyrex tank that has replaceable glass. Most of the full size PT clones on FT are V1's and have glued glass. I don't want them to drop their first one and be done. Also, the replaceable glass needs to be fairly inexpensive as well since I plan on keeping a stock of them to hand out. Should probably use kanger PT clone coils too since that's what I keep handy.

Yeah, I'm that crazy lady that also keeps different flavors of juice, charged 650 egos, PT single and duel coils, and CE4's in her purse just in case someone says "...., my vape isn't working, someone give me a real cig". I can always say "Lemme see that, I got you, you don't need a cig":2cool::vapor:

Wholesale is fine, I don't mind buying in bulk as long as it's under $100 or so.

I'll check it out, thanks!!

You can get this whole kit at Fasttech: $7.83 eGo-Mini Protank 650mAh Starter Kit - 1.5ml / 2.4ohm / USB charging cable at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Fasttech also has the replacement glass for the mini pt3, but I don't know if they would fit the tank in the link above:
$4.57 Replacement Glass Tank for Mini Protank 3 (8-Pack) 8-pack - 8 colors at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I'm looking for something variable voltage. At least 2 of those who want to upgrade are guys and they want the X6 VV Battery like this one so I need a fullsize tank for it to look right.

In my opinion $15 is too low, you can have a pretty good long lasting setup for $25. My Mom bought a 650 battery with a charger and throwaway CE4 for $22 + tax around here. [emoji19]

Have you considered starting a group buy with them to get the overall cost down? Only problem is they would have to settle on the same color to order in quantity.

"Around here" probably means a starter kit from a gas station or vape shop. That's what I've been buying and selling for 5 or 10 bucks or just giving away mostly. I've bought wholesale direct or got lucky on auctions for most of those.

My daily device is one of 3 X6's with PT2 clones. That's what these guys see me with, that's what they've tried so that's what they want. I got all three of mine for less than 15 on auctions but auctions have dried up and I just can't get them that cheap now so I'm trying to find another solution for them at the same or comparable price. Mini's just won't work. I'm off to try DHgate and alibaba... lol

Correct, she got it from a local vape shop. She wanted something small, "cheap", and now. Although it is frustrating, one less cigarette is one less cigarette.

I commend you on your crusade, I know how it is trying to convince someone that a few dollars more will make a difference in the long run, not just on the vaping gear.

I'm one of those who tries to save a buck where ever I can. Once I made the decision to give up analogs instead of hitting a local shop or even a US supplier for 650's and CE4's I went to fasttech and got twists and mini clones and continued smoking while I waited 2 weeks for my first vapemail. While browsing ebay for something cheap to get my son to try vaping I found the X6 sets.

Funny how my money doesn't seem so important when it's not for me.... For all the money I've spent on give aways for family and friends I could probably have a couple Provari's by now with authentic russians :)

$4.74 X9 Protank Clearomizer (2.5mL) - translucent / 2.5

Found it! Just had to keep looking... drip tip isn't removable but I think they'll deal with that. Glass is still replaceable. Looks like I'll have to be specific when I order though, seems some who ordered this sku ended up with plastic ones that couldn't be dismantled.

Thanks for all the input everyone :) Love that this community so so helpful!
