With all the Blems in clearance lately, I was curious to see what people could find wrong on their Provari.

Here's the blem on my White full size. The small spot under the tear drop is all I could find.

I have examined mine under a jeweler's glass with extra lights and can not find any blemishes. Somebody on another post opined that the Satin Silver color was slightly off, but I don't have another to compare it to. I purchased the extended cap for mine and it matches perfectly.

Same here. I couldn't find a blem on my satin silver, and I do not know if the finish is off as I have no basis for comparison. It does match the extension cap perfectly, though...so I'm not sure how it could possibly be off. Is the extension cap supposed to look miss-matched?

From another thread I started Satin silver blems - I solved the mystery. After finding nothing wrong with my satin silver blem I put it side by side with my non-blem satin silver. Appears to be a slight difference in the finish.

And here is the first blem I bought. Which I have since sold. It was a mini white. Scratch was pretty small and hard to see unless you were in the right light.

I can't find the blem on my satin silver. There are a couple of things that might have triggered the rejection, but nothing that I would have called out. Honestly, it's as nice as my full priced satin silver.

The Dragon has a couple of very small, very faint blue-ish squiggly lines above the ProVari, but we're talking really faint.

I can't find them unless I put it under a bright light and tilt it, this way and that way, and then; "ah!! there they are!".

Now, as these are collectables, that would be enough to get it bounced imo. Doesn't bother me in the least: it's literally all but invisible.

I suspect they would polish out pretty easily.

So far I think all the Blems look great. Nothing looks like a pair of three legged pants. :D

Provape really seems to be quite nit picky with QC. I like that :)

Overall, I'd feel comfortable getting one.. Almost did, but picked up a non-blem during the sale for $12 more (satin silver blem wasn't available during the sale)..


Then again, there have been a few in the past where the blem was pretty large/obvious..

And knowing my luck, I'd get one of those.. :(
