I've been tempted to order from them, especially with the prices and that they ship from the US on a lot of items..... But everytime I plug something in on the site, they want $11 for shipping!! At that point, a higher priced item on eBay with free US shipping comes out to less in the long run.

I just don't get $11 shipping.... Like, even on one $6 atty they want 11 bucks shipping. Crazyness. I feel like I'm missing something.

I ordered two RDAs last week and shipping was $6.10.

Dude, I don't know what I'm doing wrong then. Doesn't make sense to me.. I live in California and it always shows 11 bucks shipping. Which is crazy because everything I picked would fit in a small flat rate box with goes for less than $6.

Gutted, it's literally the only thing that's stopped me from ordering from them. Maybe I'll drop a screen shot to show you what I'm talking about. If angelcig had free shipping, they would be one of the best contenders around.

Lol
They had attys for $4 last week.
We got my SMPL and 12 RDAs shipped for $111.
$13.50 of that was shipping.
I live in SoCal
They aren't contenders they are champs.
Their ONLY problem is lack of inventory.

Im not sure what I'm doing wrong.... I added like 3 $6 attys and saw $11 shipping and was like "hell no, I can order from other places with free shipping and actually know the manufacturer of the clone I'm buying"

But in the end, I guess it's something I'm doing wrong if everyone else is getting normal shipping prices. I've ordered from them before, but had a ton of stuff so the shipping seemed reasonable.

I gotta look into this again.

Mods and rda's all from Angelcigs :)

Oh, and BTW.... I was looking at some of the mods you got (can't remember exactly which ones), but the diameter of the mod in the specs stated 21.8mm.... I was like damn, that sucks. All my 22mm attys will hang over the edge and make my OCD go crazy. I think you have one or maybe even two of the ones in your picture that stated the less than 22mm diameter.... Are your attys slightly wider than any of your mods? Or did they just put the wrong dimensions down and their really 22mm?

Even if it was 21.8mm, that would be .1mm difference on either side. Thats the thickness of a single sheet of paper. Do you think you would notice?

I would totally notice. I would end up rubbing my finger or fingernail up and down it all day long diving myself crazy. I have tourette syndrome, turning things like this into a big issue.

On a side note, I can think of no good reason what so ever to make a tube mod 0.2mm smaller that the standard size for most every atty on the market.

My copper and stainless steel smpl clones came in the mail today. I also have an authentic brass SMPL but since they're never in stock I got the clones. Love these little beauties!

Nice, I got a good copy of the dark horse coming by way soon... The one that the negative posts are actually milled into the deck and not press fit.

A part of me has kinda always wanted a panzer, but there's so many different ones out there. I'm not sure who makes a solid "really" 1:1 of it.

One of the things you look for is on the negative battery contact. They make two different types, over that looks like a flat topped screw.... These are not the 1:1's, on the ones you want the negative contact looks a bit like a capped nut. I'm only referring to the threading on these.... The actual contact is flat and round on both. So on the actual contact, if you unscrew it, the 1:1 is female threaded with the male threading on the button side

I have a Shenxi Panzer Red Phoenix, which is great and high quality. The only thing I don't like about Panzers in general though is the modular design... there are so many different parts that unscrew. If I was going to get another Panzer clone, it would be the CCI Copper Tank Mod, which is a solid copper tube: CCI Copper Tank Mod
I think this is far better than an authentic Panzer. The price is a little high compared to many clones, but its still about 1/4 the price of an authentic copper Panzer.
