Playboy officially dives into the Vaping Scene

[BillyWJ]

Playboy probably paid a pretty penny to have a current product rebranded with their logo and stuff. Happens all the time.
Sooooo.......you're checking out Playboy stuff. Maybe looking for Christmas gifts?

*running*

I would say it's probably the other way around - someone bought a license from Playboy to make these, and is paying through the nose.

Companies as big as Playboy don't go looking for things to brand, they get offers constantly.

I just looked at the website - the company who is making these is United Convenience Supply, they bought a license from Playboy.

playboy backing e-cigs... why is this a bad thing? how long has playboy been around? is playboy a successful business? while they may not necessarily be the most popular they are successful, and well... a good successful company joining the world of e-cigs... it may not help (though i think it will) but it wont hurt....

Playboy has always sold a lot of ad space to tobacco companies, it's not surprising (alcohol, too). They may have demographics that a high percentage of their readers smoke, and now are switching to ecigarettes.

Just wanted to let you guys know I contacted support on their website.they told me their juice is 70% vg

It isn't going to help our image at all

Agree. yet it is the American way. Strike while the iron is hot. I bet it's Dekang Juice relabeled.

Oopsss. I just saw this too (also noted above, but I missed it): © 2013 Playboy. PLAYBOY and Rabbit Head Design are marks of Playboy and are used under license by: United Convenience Supply

Just another company who's trying to get on the gravy train and charging way more than what the product is worth. Regardless of the brand slapped on the product, it's still an overpriced cig-a-like.

Charging more than what the product is worth? Agreed. But with current market prices, the prices are pretty comparable. The disposables look like rebranded NJoys, which go for about $7.99 each locally. So 3 for $14.99 is a pretty good deal, providing you like NJoys. The eGo kits look to be about midrange for price, I just looked and there are kits as low as $7, up to about $30.

 

[Diogenes]

Just looking at the ejuice, it's 60mls for $20, that's not too bad, if it's good.

 

[Standpoint]

If those are actual NJOY disposables, that's a good price. 3 for 15 is less than wal mart sells them for.....

Liquid looks similar to the Liqua packaging.....

Playboys advertising and just what I checked of the videos they've made
so far is WAY out ahead of any competing e-cigarette business.. I've seen.

Their coming 2 page spread in the 60th Magazine's World Wide Birthday SPECIAL
introducing their OWN PLAYBOY E-CigaretteBrand is going to draw a many
MILLIONS of WORLD devoted buyers their way...

And... just about EVERY single ...if the want to be on the BALL...
ALL BUSINESSES (STORES-Gas Stations-Truck Stops,etc)... will carry the PlayBoy BRAND of E-cigs...
The WORLD of VAPING... is Changing!!!

Playboy officially dives plunges into the Vaping Scene

That would make OleSeer's quote below even more humorous...

There coming 2 page spread...

Actually I see this as encouraging....Playboy typically does not risk it's branding on something that will be banned or potentially will become illegal.

The fact that they are selling their "e-hookah" encourages me that perhaps the tank clearomizer/e-liquid system may actually survive....

I would think that Playboy would have done their research and would not put it's name on the refillable style of e-cig's if they were going to be banned in the near future. I'm sure Playboy has some insiders who know what the FDA plans to do, and if the e-liquid market were on the verge of being outlawed, they would stick with cig-a-likes.....

Maybe I'm reading too much into it and it's wishful thinking..

A free pack of condoms with purchase?


I love safe sex after a good vape. [insert sexy winky face here]

On a more serious note, this is somewhat of a joke to me. I don't entirely see this being one of those top brand things unless someone is a huge Playboy fan and HAS to have the logo. I don't even think I could choose six flavors that I'd want for their deal. Vodka? How tasteful could that be?

 

[Amraann]

I think this is great! A large company letting their label be used will only make e-cigs more popular and IMO help keep them around.

I think the ego's are cute! I would buy a pink or white one.

And Vice Versa.....

Seriously though. I knew I could quit smoking for good after that first post-coital vape....

 

[Kahuna Cowboy]

I imagine a mech with the bunny won't be far behind.

 

[lvm111]

E-Hooka / E-Cigarette. What's the difference?

$27.99 for two ego's and two bottles of juice isn't a bad deal at all. It's certainly not overpriced. And I would be surprised if they allow their name to be used on some gas station garbage products that ARE overpriced!

Don't be prudes people. Playboy is about as tame as it gets!

I must be blind or REALLY senile ........ I don't see the size of the bottles of juice detailed in the ads. Does it say 60ml for $20.00? If it IS six 10ml bottles OK. I would like to see it detailed. The shipping is $5.00 - so I suppose $25.00 for 60ml is fair............. unless it is the old formula Dekang!

Blindly follow the Playboy Bunny............ if you watched the video ......... it IS vintage make me hot Playboy style. Oh those red ............................LIPS!

The Playboy brand is HUUUUUGE with young women. The tattoos, shirts, undies, bling...

This campaign has serious conversion potential, IMO.

 

[wonner]

I'm rebranding all of my mods with a Playboy bunny.

I wanna be a playa.

Now pardon me while I go pimp my vape.
