You mean more pretty doors ;) That black wrinkle will match anything!

Haha, yep! That's why I said in different colors, lol. I have a list of 5 that I want. Needs to wait til we get back from FL though. Then I MAY be able to blend it into our travel expenses unnoticed. *evil grin*

Beautiful REO. Please get another so I can say "nice pair ya got there woman" :)

Be wary of REOs in the classies. Their stout and nearly indestructible but some people CAN mess them up.

Not that Rob can't fix em and all, but by the time you send it to him and get it fixed you prolly could have just bought a new one for the same ( and sometimes less ) cost.

And there are flavors that people use that can be a whoremaster to remove.

I always buy from Rob unless you either know the seller or see the REO in person.

Congrats and welcome :)

I feel bad when I see people end up in for almost the whole cost after a rebuild kit or a trip to Rob, and they don't get that "brand new reo" feel. At least it brings them here, and the next is usually straight from the source. I got lucky on a couple myself, and a bit unlucky on one.

now I'm apprehensive of the one I bought.. I already have a repair kit, thankfully.

You need to make sure there are good pictures of it inside and out, and the description clear states it's condition, I'd say more people are happy with the purchase than not. It's just such a shock to us here in Reoville that someone would miss represent what they're selling and an even bigger shock that they did not take care of a Reo.

either way with the rebuild kit in hand you'll be vaping your rescue in no time.

Cracked delrin and bad firing pins come to mind as where I see people most sad. Good pics help minimize the risk. Cosmetic...well, at least we all know they will work even if they look bad.

I have been very lucky. I think I have bought about 40 REO's from the classy's. Only a couple that were different than I expected. I did not know most of the sellers.

I would not pay a price that would put me over the price of a new if I had to send it for repairs.

A lot of mine were collector REO's no longer made so it was worth shopping the classy's.

The OG mini...both mine are from classy's. One was freaking perfect, and I worried not a second since it also had just taken a trip to Rob's spa if I remember correctly.

That's exactly what I'm keeping an eyeball open for...... an OG Mini. The short battery life wouldn't bother me as I'm a casual vaper.

I have two flavors I must have every day, on hand, on demand, or else.. one is in the Grand, the other in the Mini 2.1. I snagged the Original Mini to use with cartos for those flavors I want to have here and there.. long battery life unnecessary!
