which is considered amethyst and which is the sapphire? i want one like westamx's pic

What pic are you referring to? If it is the avatar that is a Pawn Bumblebee. I have all of the colors except for Pumpkin but I think the Caramel is a better color for general use especially with the wood Reos. Neither of the blueish Pawns look good, to me, with the two blue colors of Reos I have; old Blue Mini and new Blue Grand. the Reo Blues have a slight bit more green to them than the original Pawns. Christmas Special Pawn was perfect with Reo Green. I dropped it and broke it so Cheryl sent me a Jade. I haven't even used it yet, and I've had it for months, so I don't remember if I even put it on Green Mini. CherryVape only made a certain number of Christmas and Thanksgiving Special Pawns. The Icycle (correct spelling and a blue and white) is great with any Reo Blue. The Christmas Red had more orange to it than the Cherry Chocolate which is perfect with the Reo Red.

I love DTs. Some day I hope to get them all lined up and get a good pic of them. I think I have close to 50. I don't wear jewelry, btw, but my Reos certainly have some fine accessories.

COV had a picture of the non swirled, additional color Mings up for a while. I haven't talked to Cheryl, in a while, but they have never listed the translucent solid Mings, on the site, other than the two original colors. When I checked CV site they only listed the four new swirled colors.

still the same old Reo Grand(my favorite) but I always like to update the vaping family photo :)

The DT, on the back ProVari certainly looks like a Pawn to me. If it is, I guess it is a different color than mine due to getting real life colors to show up in photos and because it isn't paired with a Blue Reo. Many of us have struggled with getting a good representation of Reo colors. For me the most difficult was the Purple Reo. I have loads of monitors so it's not just the monitors and/or calibration. It's just plain hard to capture the real beauty (and color) of any Reo be it Wood or Metal.

I just opened a package and my new Reo Mini was in it! I traded my zebra phidias for this black/green mini.

Alice, this is the photo that I was refering to when I said its a Ming, instead of a Pawn DT. :) The other blue one in the picture you quoted above this picture is definitley a Pawn..

don't tell me that:w00t: i just ordered both last night!:p
Is it just me..but i have a hard time getting my mings on the atty...i even put vg on it..

I don't own any mings, but the last batch of pawns I got were much much tighter to fit.

I have a few Cisco 1.8 510s that I still can't get them in.

You can get a razor sharp art blade (I have to use a handle because of arthritis and grasping small things) and shave a very, very tiny bit off of o-ring in three places. This will make them fit better. Also, it stops some of the o-ring from smushing out the top of atty which makes them break sooner. Don't quote me on this but Cheryl sent me a few o-rings and I think they are the same size as the o-rings for Reo Mini bottle caps which is #47, if I'm remembering correctly.

Note.. Not all DTs take the same size o-rings.
