The problem is that the prices are the same but the innerds are made of plastic where once they were made of metal. To produce quality equip that was reasonable years ago costs a fortune today. I just bought a new kitchenaid mixer the gears are plastic. Why spend a fortune for anything anymore.

True, but I'd rather have a broom handle made out of Brazilian Ebony than California Redwood. The chances of my broom lasting longer would be greater than a cheaper broom made out of wood that ranks softer on a Janka Hardness chart...just say'in.
If you keep buying cheap brooms to begin with, than you will eventually spend more than if you had bought a better quality broom to begin with. Even if you purchase new bristles, would it be worth it if the handle is not going to last much longer? You get what you pay for.
And as a side note, I use to sell building products including plywood, trim, hardwood floors..so ya, I know a little about wood.
I personally think this was started by american car manufacturers. Every year we had new models with cheaper equip. Sure they were flashy but they didn't last. We became a disposable society and it will bite us in the ...= it already has.
Provari's do.
And according to you, mechanical mods.
You've got no sense of humour mate. If it don't then you get new parts don't you. Just like the broom. Nice !
I was just thinking about the provari owner ten years down the line that has absolulely every part of it replaced and he still thinks it's the best thing since sliced bread.

Possibly..or other mods people replace all the parts in 3-6 months and still dogging Provari's that hasn't had a replacement part yet. OH, even funnier, the other mods if they do need replacement parts within a year, the owner pays for and has to do their own repair. On a Provari within a year, ProVape pays for and does the repair.
Your right, that is pretty funny now that I think about it.

Again, you speak out of ignorance and are making assumptions about something that you know nothing about. You obviously have never seen a Provari, much less held or used one. Anyone can tell from your commentary that you've never owned one. I've been an ECF member for over 1.5 years and have read in the Provari forum throughout that time. I know how rare it is for a Provari to go down. I know how reliable and dependable it is. I know of the customer support that Provape provides.
I own a Provari and I know it's quality first hand. I know how durable it is made. I know that the company will provide me with lifetime support for my Provari should I need it. It is the best investment I have made since I began vaping, and I would do it all over again.
You've amused me enough for the time being. That is all I need to say, as concrete evidence will never convince someone who is willing to believe myths and rumors or their own silly beliefs.

You keep confusing me. I don't recall anyone saying it was better than sliced bread, but I often take things too literally. Where do I fit in with your statement? I haven't said a ProVari is better than anything. Back to the OP, I've only said that I am annoyed when people feel the need to pass judgement on one of the mods I use.
I like the ones where the poster is brand new to vaping, and doesn't even HAVE a Spinner yet, and they are told to get an RBA.
The forum, as I'm sure you've noticed, has grown huge. With that, I do see a lot of misinformation being given out, but I also think people just want to be helpful and pitch in, despite that they haven't been vaping long.
As long as everyone realizes that you have to take everything you read as only a guideline, and then do your own research.
BTW, I might have kept my provari if it had ego threading.
I like ego threading. Same reason I got rid of my Baby Bullet, which was gorgeous and darling and.........pink!Best of both worlds, in what I consider "affordable midrange" mods would be to have one Provari and one REO. I'm sure there is other stuff, but I can't afford those things. Out of 30 something mods I've had those are the best so far.
If you wanted to go a little below that price point, I was rather impressed with the Sigelei Zmax V3.

A mod is a mod some people just seem to feel their mod is the best and go off the deep end trying to prove that. If it works consistently is all I care about.
And I do believe, I could be wrong, the ultimate goal is to get off and stay off analogs. However someone gets there whether its using a Cig a like, ego, ProVari, REO or a toilet paper roll..who cares???? What is one person's trash is another's treasure.
Indeed. I have talked to a couple people at work who have vaped for several months or even over a year who had no idea that you could order juice over the internet or make your own juice, and we work at a software company in support. You would think these people would have some idea about the intertubes and how you can find information and things to buy on it.
Well sorry I just have to pass on the bobo. Not my style but I bet it's a great conversation piece in certain circles.

The point was most people/consumers buy products they know won't last, they don't care that it won't last, and bought it knowing they would end up throwing it away at some point. Everybody does it, don't matter what it is. Most things are built in the cheapest way possible aren't they. People that are buying cheaper mods aren't buying them because they don't know what they are doing are they. They aren't looking for something that is guaranteed to last. Things get worn out, it's innevitable. So you buy something cheap knowing it won't last and couldn't care less one way or the other.
What it really does come down to is how well people look after their possessions. Regardless of the quality of the item if someone looks after something they value then it will last no matter what it cost. I hear, all too frequently, about cheaper goods not being as good a more expensive items on this forum. But cost has nothing to do with it in reality does it. I also here that if someone owns a provari they treat it really badly, i've heard that a lot too. Seems like provari owners are dropping their provaris every other day.
So i'd say if you're accident prone or tend to drop stuff a lot then buy a provari.
How many Provari threads do we need at one time, lol!!

You must be new around here. There's a least one AntiProVarian thread started every week.
