Probably the greatest reason I have no problem buying clones and cheapies from China. Almost every one of my mods or tanks has hit the ground at least once. Doesn't bother me near as much when the tank cost 12 bucks, and I'm sittin' on replacement tank parts for just that reason. Silicone or leather covers may protect the mod, but they seem to desire a 'tank first fall'! If that tank cost a hundred bucks, it could destroy my desire to vape fairly quickly.
Buying authentic and expensive is okay, but don't let it leave the house. El cheapo is fine for work.
