I just received an update from Andrew at Sculpteo. He confirmed that the order was lost and has sent an urgent request to the printing department and that I should receive an email with shipping info when it's available. He apologized for the inconvenience.....

Just ordered my first peko from sculpteo on April 2nd and it shipped today, what is wrong with the polished gray because that is what i ordered :confused:
Yours may be different but on mine the colouring was excessively uneven and the print lines very obvious. If I'd have known what to expect I would have just bought white [emoji1]

My thoughts exactly. I'll take care of finishing mine. I have seen others with problems from colored prints.

My goodness, you've been accumulating quite a load of stuff! I was on the Chalice list and opted to let it go, primarily, I couldn't afford such a high priced atty, and another, I'm not a MTL vaper. I really like my 22mm attys, especially the lower profile ones like the Derringer and Freakshow minis. I do love my Reos, but can't afford so many. I have 3 now. Hopefully I'll have more in time. For me, these Pekos are excellent little mods. They're very durable for being plastic and I don't worry about pocketing them. If I should damage a body or top cap, it's easily replaced. They hit really well. I hope to eventually have enough mods to house at least all of my favorite attys.

When I find something I really like, yes I do buy many. A lot of mods fits my vaping style... I always have 10-12 mods on line every day & night to hit whatever joose I want to on a whim. Did the same with ProVari's when they were my thing, then GP PAPS, now its Reos. With no family I don't have the checks and balances most folks do. Nobody counts on or depends on me but me, so buy whatever I want and can afford. I spend what extra money I have on my gear, none of it on the things folks with family and other interests have to include in their budget except hard bills (rent, utilities, insurance, food). A tank full of gas will last me around a year in my vehicle, that savings alone buys a lot of gear. 17 Reos and over 3 dozen bf atty's will tide me over nicely for now. 22mm atty's are not my thing on Reos, never have been never will be. Have near no need to carry mods except on errands and walks, both usually done in the wee hours of the night. Most often I use my mini wood and metal Reos for that just tossed in a shirt pocket like a pack of cigs.

I used to think like Spydro. I was sure I wouldn't like the Peko because I hate plastic stuff......just know we won't hold it against you if you change your position after getting your first one built[emoji6]

I changed my tune about plastic! Spydro might be pleasantly surprised as I was. Don't get me wrong, I still love my Reos and will always have them, but I'm loving these Pekos too[emoji57]

I have never dropped a mod, so it has nothing to do with durability... I simply don't like the look or feel of plastic. Nope, won't be changing my mind about plastic. If I build a Peko or two and can pick a couple of the 22mm atty's I would live with to use them they won't change my mind about the Reos being my top gear either.

It's great that the Pekos get it done for you and many other folks, no faulting that at all. I'm set in my ways and too close to the end of the trail to care about changing them, and that should be fine with other folks as well.

That's super, Spydro. I admire a person who knows what they like and goes after it wholeheartedly. I do happen to be one of those that has to watch my spending and much of it on the sly. My wife, who quit smoking cold turkey about six years ago can't understand my love and appreciation for vaping, but she tolerates it. But my purchases are on my credit card and I make the payments on that, but I still have limits. Actually, I'm past my limit and need to stop for awhile and catch up:).

Is juice leaking out around the base of the atty? If juice comes up the tube and the vented screw, it's got to go somewhere. Unless you don't have a good seal at the bottle cap. Enough to get liquid into the tube, but won't go into the atty, maybe? Or, you could have a blockage in the atty's 510 pin.

my thoughts exactly pwheeler, but when i squonk, I can see it come up the vented screw, when i release the bottle it get sucked back into bottle, but when i place atty on it will not come up the atty????

I have checked inside, and thus far have not found a leak anywhere, its the worst thing though because i left my house this am, thinking it was fine, 20 minutes into my hour commute to work, dry hit, try to squonk, no good...

And the best part is, i dont have a back up with me, so i am at 9 hours with no vape as of right now, on the second to last day of tax season (im an accountant), so i will be here for at least another 4 hours minimum...

I need a second peko :(

I know this sounds ridiculous, but are you sure you grabbed a BF atty? If it comes up the pin I can' think of any reason it wouldn't come into the atty unless the atty is clogged or not a BF.

I am so sorry!

Here is my email to them today:

Received my Peko Polished Grey product yesterday.

Print quality seems good, but I must say that is the saddest representation of a color I have ever seen.

When you sent a photo of the completed product I was concerned enough to send an email. Upon receipt, it is worse than anticipated. Totally unacceptable.

Not only should I have not paid for the color, I should have paid more for it not to be colored.

Personally, I believe a refund of the upcharge for color is in order.

I see from the ECF Forums I am not the only one who experienced this. Unfortunately, I didn’t read it until after my order was in process.

I believe you would do Sculpteo a favor by not even offering that color until you figure out how to execute it properly

Not bashing, just disappointed.
