I love how the black edition is $30 more. I don't know how pricey "plasma coating" is so maybe it's justifiable but it makes the already overpriced atty ridiculously overpriced. Whatever, it's Element mods business and if people pay the price so be it.

Speaking of price: how much is the M-Atty anyway?

I want to say it's in the $130-$140.

With shipping and maybe a tip, man, I dunno! That's going to be about $150! I decided I do want another Origen, so I need to really think about it. But then again, it's not like I wouldn't be able to sell it for exactly what I paid if it isn't worth the money...

I am curious, does anyone here believe it will actually be worth the money considering the best vape you are already getting? Is it really just about the 'rarity'? Maybe a silly question! I guess I will or won't find out, but if I don't find out, my vape will be just as good without it.

I've been searching around and it appears that it's $140 shipped. Too rich for my blood considering it seems like a bog standard three post dripper aside from the unique way of trapping the leads. Considering most of the people that have one are absolutely of the "gotta have the latest and greatest hyped to hell attys" type (read: vaping hipsters; Vipsters?) I'm not sure I trust their opinions. I have seen a claim or two that the NarDA bests it for flavor.

Do I think so? Nope. But that's just my opinion of it. I love the looks and the customization of it....but I also dont see what's so special to warrant that price considering what it's got going on. Who knows maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. But my life will be the same with it or without it. And I'm not paying that...for that.

Thanks for the link earlier in the thread, Sir Mann.

Lately I've been using my top airflow RDAs more. I like not having to worry about leaking and condensation. The Vector and MGNT have been getting a ton of use. I recently played with a prototype of the Asmodus Etty. It's like a MGNT with bigger air slots and a Velocity-style deck. I'm super looking forward to that one.

The MGNT does look cool...

If your buying it make sure you get the 2 post one and not the 3 post. I have the original version and it's great, he literally updated everything that was wrong with the first one. Which was already probly the easiest rda I've ever used in my life, now made easier with the 2 post.

Well I normally wouldn't say this on here but I trust everyone. I got the original for free, the owner kinda messed up with the pre order with his shado mech mod and agreed to send everyone who pre ordered the mod to send them all the MGNT atty. Months passed I didn't think anything of it I wasn't expecting anyway, one day it showed up with his juice line. The guy is good in my book as far as companies go. The original deck isn't anything outstanding, but it's the top cap and drip tip that I loved, it's just simple and super easy to use and gives a nice vape. He upgraded the magnets, made a 2 post deck and made the top cap seamless instead of having a lip, that's a win to me.

I have very little faith that it will beat my veritas or my NarDA in any category other than ease of build. Doesn't mean I don't want one though.

I think the only reason I would buy an M-Atty is all the past talk I've heard about this elusive atty.

Supposedly better than ANY other. But we all know this isn't a fact. Therefore I'll probably buy one anyway....;)

I just went to buy a MGNT RDA and I noticed how far apart those posts are. Much too far for my liking. I get who these types of decks are geared toward, but I still wish I could have less room. It makes the regular coils almost too difficult to install as they are on the wrapping tool. If I wanted to be bending leads and such, I would just stick to a three-post! And why the dang-on copper (or brass) post? Grr! Anyway, just venting...a tad.

I am trying to be better at REALLY looking closely at the pics of atties before I buy them. All too often what I dislike about an atty I bought could've been noticed if I would've been more patient and observant.

If it's anything like his first the post is gold plated, cause I too have looked at those pics with the same concerns you have. Copperish looking post and too far apart. Kinda why I haven't gotten one yet. Which sucks cause I do want one but I opted for the solstice in the end.

i want to grab one as well, but by looking at the airflow i guess it will be very near or identical vape experience to the hobo 3.1, im liking though the top cap design for ease of dripping...

goodluck for us.... hehehe
