Hey all, I didn't know where to post this but wanted to let everyone know that several REO's are on ebay today.

I am new to the REO band wagon but purchased my 1st new grand last week and have purchased a couple of used ones from ebay. Got ripped bad on one purchase and did well on the other as far as used goes. I bought new the Black Anodized mod withbrass door from Rob, Really have been enjoying the Reo.
I purchased a Mini 2.1 that was just nasty and beat up so I have stripped it completely and am going to polish it and then Alodine 1200 treat it, then repaint except the drip well.
The other Reo I purchased used was a traditional Grand that I have milled the drip well down on to make low profile. Going to send the two used ones up to Robert for the new SS 510 connection before repainting.

I have read many of the forums comments on the Reo and I have to say there spot on. I just sold my sigelei 150 and all my high end gear and am going to really narrow the field to the Reos and maybe keep my old EA mod for dripping.

Sorry for being a bit long winded here but wanted to let you all know about the Reos on Ebay. I dont have classified privileges on the forum yet so I dont know what the going used prices are but check them out and let me know if they are inline with what you all normally see.

Regards

Welcome to the 'Ville, and congrats on picking up all the reos.

One thought: maybe start a thread in the general threads area with pics of your new babies and introducing yourself. You'll get a wider audience and get a chance to meet plenty of the gang that way.

Thanks for the heads up on the ebay stock, too.

Keep your EA for dripping if you like, but as you know, reos are upside down dripping. If it's frequent flavour switching you're after, you can just top drip to your heart's content on any old atty of your choice atop your reo. Even swapping flavours by switching bottles is no problem - many do it.

Hi all! Just poppin in. Worked this weekend so only got some lurking in [emoji6] Hoping that most are happy with the outcomes of the ballgames. I don't watch much football until it gets down to the end. Basketball is more my thing[emoji6] Hubby is a NCAA referee but don't tell anyone. LOL I love watching when he is doing a game.

Welcome smknomore! I have bought a couple off of Ebay too. I bought another today.:facepalm: Getting verified is really easy. I think The Joker does it on Sunday night. It's fast with Paypal. I only use my Reo for dripping. The only other mod I have used since I got my Reo is my DNA 30. I've used it for charging batteries and dry burning coils while I'm vaping my Reo. You'll like it here.

Sorry for the delay in responding, been putting new axles in my youngest boys car, had to shut everything up for the night.

Thanks for the welcome, and I can see the versatility of the Reo. When Robert states the last mod you will ever need I believe it.

I bought an RM2 and will use it on my mini for every day carry use. But I want to mod a couple of larger attys' for the LP Grands.
Anyone have recommendations, I would like something that wont prevent the door from sliding up. I test fit a Magma and the door hits...
I know Rob is modding the StillAre but I think the deck is real shallow. I was hoping to find a deck similar to the Magma but hopefully a
simpler positive post arrangement.

When I get the painting done on my new to me but old Reo's I will take some pics and try to get them uploaded.

Thanks muzichead. The Atomic, Iam going to check it out right now.

I think I'm the resident weirdo. I don't use anything bigger than an RM2. I like the concentrated flavor I get from tiny attys. Actually I don't use the RM2 much I use an ERA or an eBaron Spiral they are smaller. I've thought about the RM3. It looks pretty tiny.

The RM2, (Stilaire), is a 22mm atty and the door won't go up with it on the device. You might want to look at the RM4, (Atomic), as that is only 18mm and the door will clear the atty.

just to be clear the door will go up with a RM2 on a mini 18490 but maybe not on the original 14500 mini

Well that game was embarassing...but not unexpected.

Yeah, no luck tonight (pun intended). Speaking of whom, the poor guy is, what, 0-4 against the Pats and pretty much blown out every time. I really thought they'd put up a much better fight given their momentum of the last few weeks.

Should be a helluva Super Bowl, tho.
