Happens to me, on occasion, with my vaping gear. Sometimes I buy a bunch of things at once and can't deal with all of them at once, sometimes I win something in a contest I never should have entered...

I also just discovered that I own a gigantic atomizer named smok TFV4 mini. Mini?!?!? Anyway, this I must have won, because there's no way I would have bought something like that. So back into the box it goes to be investigated at some other time. :lol:
Maybe it's sleep buying! Isn't it @Fidola13 /Sara that needs her typing fingers tied up in the night hours? :lol: For me it's after a night out that I need to be careful:w00t:

No worries. They are fine, just can't be rewicked or rebuilt. But that won't be your problem. ;)
They are in my "Stuff is harder to get and I don't want to pay a fortune or go back to cigs" stash. Doesn't have to be pretty, just has to work. I have 2 rebuildable bridges, 3 drop in bridges. Looking at about 150 drop ins, 2 spools of wire, 100 cheap stainless prebuilt coils, 6 nice nanos, and only 10 months of juice, 4 Billets and 1 regulated with the 2 Kanger tanks. Storage is an issue. It's not much but adding as I go.

Billet rabbit hole has been a bit much. The Harry Potter Billet will be my absolute last. Still looking at a month until it's done. R2D2 has maybe shipped. I currently have 1 set of doors, 3 tips, 2 buttons, 1 set of inners also on the way. Oh, and a guy that has taken a week to ship a Mission tip. That may end up ugly.

Nah, truth be told, I'm a very disciplined buyer. I have zero shinyitis (just don't tell anyone) and I only buy stuff I think I'm going to like--after watching and reading reviews. I never buy version 1 of anything and never buy multiples of anything. But in my 11 years of vaping, I have accumulated a fair amount of vaping gear. Most of it is still good but just old technology.

The FDA deadline forced me to take inventory. *sigh* Memory lane. So many mods and tanks that were game changers and absolute must-haves just a few years ago. Not to mention assorted cigalikes, eGos, cartomizers, dripping atomizers... We've come a long way. :cry:

Wow. I feel so inadequate. ;)

My problem is that I prefer new technology. I really don't want to go back to the old prehistoric stuff. I'm not getting rid of it, but I hope I'll never have to use it again.

goodbye
You might like Kai's Virgin Vapor creamy caramel. We used to buy their Creme Caramel. If you like caramel there is no other that comes close.

They also sell a Kona coffee and caramel. Caramel Kona Milkshake.

Both of those will be gone in 2 days and 8 hours thanks to our lovely FDA.

Virgin Vapor, the wunderful FDA and PMTA's...
Will Kai's Virgin Vapor Survive the FDA?
They have 20 of their juices they're going to whittle down to 10 for PMTA submission.

I dislike the freakin' FDA and gov idiots for all this BS. :mad: :-x

Thank you SMT. :) Those both sound lovely.

Dislike is too nice of a word for those :censored:. I'm pretty sure the whole government, both federal and local need a total reboot. You know the old adage....You can't fix stupid. I am not fond of the two party system. It seems that the only current reason for their existence is to antagonize and infuriate each other, while in the meantime totally disregarding us, the people who trusted them to care for us. I'd like to see the career politicians replaced with fresh young minds that have our country and our best interests in mind. One upmanship, greed, partisanship, and the pursuit of total power and control have no place in a country where the citizens are supposed to be the only reason for their existence. At this point, I don't like either choice we are enslaved to. They are all violent, hateful, greedy liars, who don't don't give a

about us, and don't deserve to be in the position of care for the citizens of this great country. This country was built by the hard work, sweat, and blood of immigrants from all countries and races that really cared about making it a place that the rest of the world could make their home of refuge. I want that back.

I apologize for the political rant. If I have offended anyone, I sincerely am sorry. I am just disgusted, disappointed, and frustrated with what my country, and the world at large have become. We are all born into this world the same way, with no choice who we are going to be. We all breathe the same air. We all bleed when we get cut. We all are born and die. We all walk on the same ground. We all need each other. We all own this world and deserve a life that is equitable to all, not just those with power and privilege. In my eyes, there is just one race...the HUMAN race. Is it too much to ask everyone who lives on this big blue marble to realize that, and act accordingly?

I truly love you all, and I am just thankful for the privilege to have made your acquaintance, and the opportunity to call you my friends. Thank you! :wub:

In this thread anything could become a humm shiny thing :shock:
It is so true. Over the years I have watched many go buy something just because someone else had it and liked it. From scales to Ultrasonic shaker thingy's to Billet Boxes. It takes off after two people get it and then it goes on for weeks until something else comes along. we are currently winding down from all things Dvarw and winding into all things scissors

I've found my perfect vape with Billets. Simple enough. I think 4 is enough. Back ups for backups. I've purchased replacement screens for the DNA chip, and will buy a chip or two as replacements if needed.

I like to be prepared. I have enough spare gaskets/glass for my boros (7 boros). I also have the Therion which I fixed awhile back, a pulse 80w, 2 dot aios, a dot squonk which may work, and somewhere a mech squonk for the absolute emergency. Hell, may even buy a tube since they're easy enough to keep up and running.

I like tech, but more so in home electronics.

For the sxk dvarw dl fl at fasttech, PRICECONTROL takes off $4


It doesn't take anything off on the extra 6ml glass or inserts, but it's not a bad discount :)
Cancelled my orders & tried coupon code Not Accepted Going to check FT Forum
