i agree it's a lot different than the real deal, it's a Taifun *style* clone if anything. it might be decent and, it might be complete crap! don't matter because noone has them forsale anyhow... atleast i cant find one.

I've had no issue getting Kayfuns, kayfun Lites or Taifun GT's...it seems harder to get the clones right now.

ya no kidding... wish I could afford a real Taifun! I could almost justify the 100.00 for my KFL but not 200.00 for a taifun

I paid $160 shipped from Smokerstore both times I bought a Taifun GT. They drop VAT for US folks. I assume it would be the same for Canada. I paid $160 shipped for my kayfun 3.1 from intaste.de, same deal with them dropping VAT.

although that's better than 200.00, it's still 60 more than i'm willing to pay for an atty :)

The russian is a chinese kayfun clone for $110ish

As an owner of a Taifun GT ($138),a Kayfun 3.1es ($175) and a Kayfun lite ($80)...all wonderful german made atty's...I can't see dropping $110 on a china clone.


The Russian is not made in China and not in any produced like the ones in China are. They hit just as well as the Kayfun and are worth their price in my opinion.

The russian and the russian 91% are made in china. According to reviews the tobeco russian 91% clone is just like the real thing, i'll probably do a little comparison when i get mine :)

Regarding the Taifun clone, Fasttech has it on back order so if you ordered today they wouldn't ship it before the 7th. Sometimes they get products earlier but i wouldn't count on it, also it's 19.65 with free shipping. Vaporbreak also has the Taifun clone but for 26 and charges like 5 for shipping.

sorry, its about $85-$90(r91) and its as good as my kfl. i'm no vaping purist-what works well is what i care about. the country of origin is the least of my worries if the product delivers. the russian and russian 91% are as good as any kayfun. they were engineered in germany and had kebo build them to their specs- not the run- of -the -mill chinese knock-off. i have both and they are both top notch. but i am getting another russian......

Don't know where you got a Taifun GT for $ 138 if you did it's a great price mine was $ 275 shipped from England.

Dang, You are right. For some reason I did not think it was made in China. I just found their site. Lots of vendors are breaking the rules with pre-orders and offering it less than their enforced pricing too. Wonder how long those vendors will be able to sell their stuff.

I got some stuff from VaporBreak... once. Bad idea! LOL
