I got my Q a couple days ago, and although it's built beautifully, I don't think it's for me. Just not crazy about the size of it. I love my MLs, so I think this Q will be going in the classies in the next day or two. I'll probably just pick up another ML to replace it. Oh well...

Maybe it will grow on you after awhile. It might take awhile to transition from the ML to the Q. It isn't that much bigger than the ML.

I have 2 MLs, an M, and an SX Vapor Flask. Have never had a problem with the finish on any of them. I just ordered the Q in black. Having the 2 batteries, extra battery life and powerful modes I really like.
Off topic, but I have always wanted a Tugboat dna 200. With the memorial day sale at Local vape, I picked one up for 25% off. Darn thing is already missing some paint on the edges of it and I baby that thing like crazy. Pretty disappointed with that.

Sounds like your wife is like me. I'm not a hoarder either. I always get rid of mods I don't use anymore. When the FDA rules fully kick in I may buy a few Q's to have hand or whatever is the greatest in 2 years. I'm not going to panic like others are until I see whats going on.
I am not opposed to selling off unused gear and have sold many, but if I miss the peak time and the return is no longer there versus the invested cost I typically just hold onto them. Never know when they might come in handy. The Shark is a good example of that. A dna40 dropped dramatically in value and I missed the right time to get a good % of the $ out of it so I shelved it. Now the wife is using it so at least it is getting some use. Others I sometimes giveaway to someone who needs an upgrade, or to someone that is seriously wanting off the smokes. Of course with so many seeming indigent it is now harder to decide who is really needy. Also I have my work beaters and they see a large bulk of daily use, and then I switch to a nicer finish after I get home. lol that is the justifications of shinyitus.

Yep it is a uncertain time right now for vaping. While many of us are aware of the regs looming over us the larger portion of the users has no real clue.

I am sure they will do well enough in the classies. Plus as Hyper mentioned it might grow on you, but you know best what you like so it sounds like the sale pages might be its destiny.

Yeah I got some old cheap mods too that wouldn't be worth trying to sell. I'm not even sure I could give them away. The one good one I hang onto is my first Provari. It was the first high quality mod I ever bought and has taken a beating and keeps on ticking. For my beater mod I use a Aspire Plato. I like how the tank is shielded and I can drop it without any fears of it breaking.

I still love my ML's. I treat all my vape gear like golf clubs. Buy them use them and when the technology changes I get the latest upgrade. After that I use the others every once in a while. I too have all of my Provari's. The last one I bought was the P3. Since Yihi hit the scene I have been buying the SX exclusively. It took me a few days for the Q to become equal to my ML.
Trying to find the perfect topper for the Q. Right now the Avocado is my favorite. I'm enjoying the look of a smaller atty on the Q

I guess there is a shortage of Red & Blue paint in china? The Black & Brown have been available for a while now! Is it just Me or does anyone else feel they just ignored the people who preordered!
I ordered a blue one Mar 26/16. I could have had a Black or Brown for weeks now.
Here I still wait! Good job Yihi. Idiots!!
I'm at the end of my patients with this, If I don't get a shipping notice this week I'm cancelling my Order!

I have a P3 too that my wife uses. She has arthritis in her hands and says tube mods are easier for her to hold than box mods.

From what I hear is blue is the last to be shipped. First black, then brown, then red, and then blue. Blue should be coming pretty soon. Where did you pre-order from?

VR, they finally have Black in stock. This stupid colour game has me ...... to the Max!
I really don't even care about the stupid door colour, it's just a stupid door panel!
I paid for this thing all most 3 months ago! & I'm going to be the last to get one!

I know how you feel. Vendors offered pre-orders way too soon. It was a long torturous wait. Like I said earlier in this thread I'm done with pre-orders. I'm not going to go through this ever again.

I agree with you. I think Yihi learned a lesson with the M. They pushed it to market and had issues with the paint.
I waited until I saw it listed on Varitube placed my order and had it my hand in 48 hrs.

VR I just emailed them to see if they will send me a Black one, If I have to wait any longer I will just cancel my order, I'm over this :(
I was told by Michelle at Vape Royalty last week that they were getting the Black last Friday and that they would ship on Saturday. I had ordered the brown and they asked me if I wanted to switch to the black. I said yes and true to their word they did ship on Saturday and a black Q is in route to me.

I was told they expect the Brown, red, and blue at the end of this coming week and so I believe they will get at least the brown and red by then, but I too heard the blue was the last color to ship.

If you want to switch color unless they run out of stock I don't think it will be an issue.
