I am glad I am not the only one. I also have a spread sheet of purchases, how much I have saved from smoking and my break even point. I can't seem to stop buying stuff. I keep saying that I am finished but it never stops. I make all my own juice now and have just gotten into rba's although do not have any desire to start dripping. At least at this point!!! I started vaping in Sept and quit smoking in Oct. Thought that the spending was just a way to forget about smoking but I am at the point now that I don't have any desire whatsoever to smoke again but I keep spending.
Not an addiction. Not a hobby. An obsession.

I use this GotVapes.com - eSig Savings Calculator and it's part of my hobby's obsession. Refresh every morning.
Ha!
Just spent $65 tailoring myself a stealth setup from various sites, and trying a new vendor that sells 100% VG. Really excited about both!!!
..... Already know what I'm buying next paycheck.
That about sums up what my past 9 months have been like. Actually, I think it's gotten worse.

I'm winding down after a year. When my taxes come I'm getting myself a REO mod. I see a .... ton of stuff I like, of course, but I pretty much have all my bases covered. Now that there's a lot of clones out there, I can try the "higher end" stuff and not be broke about it. I'm sure I'll end up with a hammer clone too, but you know, that's only to round out my epipe collection

I didn't even think about keeping record of money saved and spent since the switch. Might have to start doing that.

It passes. I tend to go "all in" with new interests too. Some find their ideal setup and ADV quicker than others and never really turn vaping into a hobby, approaching it much as they used to smoke once they've done that. I thought I had turned it into a hobby until I wasted money on rather pricey stuff that's now in my backup drawer and realized I'm still using pretty much what I started with with less expense. That's when the light bulb went on and I now just pay for maintenance. I guess we all either reach that point at different time or not at all... though most do.
For the past few days I look around at everything and I am just now to the point that I think I have toooo much. Multiple new orders will arrive early next week and I have no place else to put them…lol
I think I am out of control as well.
Once I get to test drive the IBTanked set-up I expect I will start thinning the herd.
10 tanks sitting here full
8 more ready to be filled
3 drippers in use
4 more on standby
2 Cartos on mods testing juice
87 bottles of DIY Juice
35 flavors mixed and ready to rock

I think I might be done buying PVs....now that my 4th ProVari came yesterday....
I'm not going to DIY anything, so will still be buying juice and other supplies, but that should be a lot cheaper....just gotta hope nothing new comes out that I just gotta have!! Still love to "window shop" but don't feel the need to buy most of the time (knock on wood!!)
Like some of the others here, when I get into a hobby, I tend to eat, drink, and sleep it for a while....a looooong while!!

I just have to quit looking at shinny stuff. Sucks to have my CC# memorized, don't even need the plastic card to spend more on something I don't really need, but just looks nice. For me it IS an Addiction and a Hobby and an Obsession. I won't bore you with my collection, as what I post today will change tomorrow, as I can't quit buying.

OP I showed my wife ur message and it's like I wrote it myself bi am the same way at 1 month in. I currently have 3 total orders in the mail. Have 4 tanks, 3 batts in house, 4 more on the way, 50 bots of juice and another 25 on the way. It's fun!!!!!!!!!!! I sit and chain vape at night and couldn't be happier!
OMG where else can you find a hobby where you can identify so well? I have so many differnt things on order right now I honestly don't know what I have ordered or when they will be here...and I'm struggling not to order more tonight. SvoeMesto Semovar SM anyone?
That's me in a nutshell. I love artisan made things of all types, especially glass and metal. However, I am on a tight budget and it's going to be months before I get anything I'd call "cool" as vaping gear. I'm betting most of my funds will go to finding good e-juice and or learning to mix my own.
I've been resisting the urge for 2 weeks now to buy a provari with a kayfun/russian setup. I don't know how much longer I can hold out. If I ever get a Saturday off, I'm trying to buy a Billet Box...
I don't think it stops...

My weakness is juice. I'm still in the experimentation phase, trying to find the perfect flavor. I've got enough carto tanks, clearo tanks, an RDA that just kicks ...., an RBA on the way, (I won it, yay me!), and two awesome APV's. The only problem I have is that I'm not ordering fast enough with the juice!!
