I've gotta say May...oops I mean nay lol Or even June for that matter. Good luck though, personally I'd actually be happy if we get ours in 10 weeks from order, after the insanity so far.

nah it should be a separate piece, but yeah me too I ordered a jwrap 3 weeks ago.. but yet no HMV3 to be seen
Whoa, I disappear for a few days and come back to 10+ more pages. With everything that's happening with SSVapes and Hana, I think I may just purchase a DNA30 mod from another manufacturer, since I've already cancelled with SSVape. I'm not so sure I want to give Hana the business anymore either.
If it weren't about the same wait time from now I would cancel and order another dna elsewhere. The Hana just seems to be able to take more abuse than others and being an OTR trucker I need durability. So I wait unless I find one in my travels.

Yeah, you might just run into one! Whatever towns you're gonna ride through, you should call the local shops and swing by if they have any!

That's my plan. But if I do find one I'll give this one to the wife

Got a home terminal in Oklahoma City and in Riverside California so should be able to find them there. Also got one in Carlisle PA so I may check in on SS Vape and see if they will sell one over the counter and report back.

I'm going to pull the plug on this mess in April sometime or find one somewhere else whichever comes first. I'm not pointing a finger or shaky fist yet but here are the things that bother me.
1. Most people on this thread had never heard of SS Vape before and it shows because I was the 954th online order for well anything in 2 months of 2014. People are very angry with them but still continue to order other things online from them thus giving them more money that they don't deserve given their history. Even if I got my mod tomorrow I would never buy another single thing from them.
2. The pre order is still open. This is a local vape shop not a fortune 500 company. So If I look at the order numbers there could be 1000 preorders for this device. At 1000 that means this small b&m has 250k just laying around that they never could have made in 2 months ever. It's pretty tempting to hedge that 250k against business growth. I remember this thing a few years ago with a guy named Madoff. Different situation and not pointing fingers. just saying it does happen
3. Hana Modz got a lot of publicity from a Rip Trippers review. Trent was made out to be a customer service genius but I have sent him 2 very polite emails over the last 3.5 weeks and I never got a reply. Others have but I haven't. I'm sure he is very busy but that's the deal when you go into business for yourself. Growing pains are good but need to be handled efficiently. Even a once a week generic mailer with an update to everyone would be accepted but never offered. So what happens when he has more orders than he can ship effectively? Does he cancel some? start cutting corners and shipping inferior products? I don't have the answer but I suspect we'll see soon enough.
4. Selling Modz at Vape Fest. I've read back a few pages and I read they had quite a few up for sale. It's good PR to generate buzz about your product when only a few of the people youre generating the buzz to actually know that you can't keep up with demand. If 87 units was the number does that mean he brought his entire stock with him? Assuming they all sold does that mean that the inventory is now Zero?
Everything I've said is just speculation of course from a cynical person no doubt but without updates for us speculation can and will run wild deserving or not

There really wasn't 87. That's just my buddy posting a frequently posted unknown number from ar15.com.
Vapebash hasn't happened yet. It takes place in 2 weekends time, April 11th and 12th. Welcome to VapeBash.com
Vape Bash is Apr. 11-12 in Chicago.
This debacle is giving me a short fuse...your buddy had me cursing. lol
The one thing that can't be discounted is Hana's history on FB. Lookin back, he has never release more than 50'ish devices when he was selling direct. Table that with what could be a thousand pre orders and Houston we have a problem.
Also authorized dealers have yet to get a shipment (authorized resellers per Hana's website) and one of them ordered 200 V2's and only got eight. Not good either.
Time for Hana to step up. I love my V2 and was really looking forward to a V3
/anyone notice Rip hasn't shown his Hana recently?

I'll probably be in TN dealing with the passing of my father, which happened this past Monday.
I am considering driving 6 hrs to vapebash myself to get the mod I already paid for. I am almost positive they'll have a table full of our rightful preorders.
