Older Folks and Vaping

They're nice, but I think the retail prices are overstated for what they are, particularly the rectangular one.

The rectangular one would be easy and require minimal effort to duplicate. The wood does look nice though. I have some hickory, blackjack oak, yellow oak, australian pine, ?? maple and a few other woods in my scrap box that could make either one of them. On my long list of wanna do's - after I finish my list of honey do's... LOL

well I've made it a week with out buying a new mod my last one,i was told by the vender was a volt but was corrected on another thread saying it was a silver bullet mod, y'all are making it so hard not to get another but don't know what I want to spend all this extra money i'm saving on. I got a nice collection started tho so far 2 ego 900's,1 ego style 1000 passthru,1 Vision 1300 spinner,1 Vamo,and the volt or silver bullet whatever it is....lol. not to mention all the DIY stuff and still I have spent less than I did on those stinking things I used to kill myself with.

Is it just me, or have ya'll been noticing the vendors are increasing prices every time we turn around?

I think he did do a very nice job on the holders and they do the job nicely. Keeps my end table much more organized and they look much better than the acrylic holder. I like the ones with 2 different woods.

Very nice collection. It's a shame we can't rent different models so we could try them out before buying. There are so many to choose from and sometimes it's hard (for me) to make a decision from a picture on a website. It sure sounds like you're having a lot of fun with your new toys.

Wow - Mod rental is a great idea Janet!!!

I haven't bought anything in awhile since Mike got us stocked up, but you're the expert shopper so if you say prices are going up I believe you!

Just saw this thread. Just started vaping recently after a 20 Month hiatus. I used that time to FINALLY get off of a 60+ Year habit of tobacco use!!! I found that vaping along with the ciggies & the pipe just wasn't getting Me where I wanted to be.

Since coming back to vaping, I have been trying a lot of different equipment. So far the best move has been a variable voltage vaporizer along with different ohm levels of cartridges. Been using 510 clearmizers with varing degrees of quality (mostly poor). Am now trying tanks.

I'll be 71 this Month, wish Me happy birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY THEN and welcome to the thread...

Well, at least if there were B&Ms closer to us we could see different devices in person. I'm one of those shoppers who likes to pick things up before I purchase. These things are expensive. When I hit the lottery I'll open a store and have some of everything so people can come in and see a selection. Who knows, some people might buy something they didn't know they wanted if they could see it first. That might be kinda fun to just hang out and talk to people about vaping all day. Oh no, what am I thinking! I've worked with the public, maybe I don't want to go back to that... On the other hand, if I hit the lottery I could I could just show the problem people out the side door.

I am afraid that if I had a B&M close to me I would own more gear than I currently do. Buying without actually seeing it and testing it is one of the main things that keeps me cautious and limits what I order... Helps with my budget...

Glad you stopped by and hope you have a lovely birthday! And Congratulations on switching to vaping. It's a wonderful feeling isn't it?

I do try to watch a review or two before I buy a new mod but I do buy on faith every now and them. The Chameleon and Chi-You I bought on a pre-order and I like them really well. I also have a Billet Box on pre-order. I try to avoid the fan-boi's reviews and look at GrimmGreen or Busardo for reviews...they tell it pretty straight up.

I haven't posted for a couple days and the place has really been rockin'. Welcome to all the new faces. Please participate often. We're all in this together.

I was getting my round tuit about the time the PV holders got posted. I was building this one and I already realize it's too small. I may design a modular style that can be expanded because I doubt I'll quit expanding my collection.

It's cherry and will darken naturally when exposed to light.

 

[Kat56]

Oooooh that is sooooo cool BacsiBob! I love it!!! I'm beginning to need one LOL

 

[Semiretired]

Very nice setup Bob... I like how you setup for the Grippers - nice detail.
