So Upset ! Mechanical Mod Story

[Horus]

Ok so I've been in the market for a Chi You Stainless Steel mod for ages now... so hard to come by, I'm on a waiting list at VAPREV
so i get the email notification they are back in stock at 12:53pm today, I go online to buy it at 1:02pm it says available so I put it in the cart and go to check out........ what happens??? my cart reloads and says OUT OF STOCK!!!! are you serious?! Geez!
I don't know how many they had but to sell out in 9 minutes... that's pretty incredible... oh well, back to the drawing board lol

Sorry for the frustration, but welcome to the world of high end limited run Mech devices. I love the Chi You , but gave up and got the Super-T ELA.
Paid for it in December and finally finished production and on its way. There a few left for order in case you want to check it out.

That's why with limited items, you have email push notification to your phone and pull the trigger the second you get the email. You know the saying: "You snooze, you loose". You did act fast, but not fast enough. You'll get one. Don't fret.

same thing happened to me with the juggernaut at 310 vapors. It takes a while but eventually you will get your hands on an in demand device. I managed to get onto the list, it's all timing.
It's pretty much supply and command...for all you trailer park boys fans.

I had that happen TWICE during the HP Touchpad $99 fire sale from two different vendors. Bottom line is until the transaction is complete it's not yours. I did eventually get my Touchpad...which I used to type this response. Good luck.

Happened to me too. I think the vaperev staff bought em all haha

Wow...So frustrating!!!
Wish they'd form a reserve list and order according to demand.

Your probably better off stalking the website than waiting for the notification email. Most email notifications for highly sought out products go out of stock before you get the email. I find it dumb that they wouldn't put up anything on their Facebook page letting people know when it would be available. At least it would have given you a heads up, especially for something so ought after like the Chi you.

Hopefully you'll get your Chi you soon.

I got a touchpad from HP the first night they went out for $99...then I realized I could give a crap about tablets.

I'm not big on crazy sales, I did get a Taifun GT the other day which only seemed to be up for about 15-20 minutes on a German site. I didn't f5 or anything though, just showed up and ordered.

Keep in mind, that this was a pre-sale of the GT. It might take up to a month until it comes to delivery. The Taifun GT is one of the most hyped RBA's at the moment in Germany.

Yes, I understood this prior to paying because I read the site before giving them my $140, but I still got my order in prior to the cutoff/limit being reached.

Brass Chi You will be released in several shops in Southern California. Rights to have SS Chi You are being worked on by another shop. Chi You will be mass produced and you will get one.

And then nobody will want one!

Then it's not worth having

 

[Jaseruckus]

Rofl both your avatar pics looks like 2 dogs fighting each other.

I still think people will still want one even if it's mass produced. Only the status symbol chasers will be warded off. Plus you won't have pay an arm and a leg to get a "used" one anymore. It will still be considered a solid hitting mod.

Friend mojo (or whatever modded you like) on Facebook. Sometimes they update their production and shipping status.
