There are 2 ways of finding out . . .

1) The best way is - Wait for the fabulous @Bamrz to post here in the thread if they are going to be any BB available and what colors will be up for that particular sale . . . :thumbs:

or

2) Go to the BB FB Page and "Friend/Like" them to get notices when you are on FB - here: Billet Box Vapor

Oh YEA - They run a sale on BB's usually every 2 weeks now . . . ;)

BTW: Some other Updates & "NEWS" from "DD" Personally can be found here: Billet Box Vapor Inc.

AND - There are a number of other BB pages/groups on FB too. . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

so a BB noobie/wannabee question but will there be any up this weekend??

They do em every 2 weeks now so this Saturday should be a sale..

Tips:

1. Use chrome
2. Have an account already setup with all info updated and correct
3. Have autofill of credit card info set and ready to rock in Chrome
4. Do not have anything else in cart
5. Practice the checkout sequence several times a few minutes before the sale
6. On day of sale go to the page of the one / color you want.
7. F5, F5, F5 like crazy starting about one minute out
8. When it shows in stock add to cart and go, go, go! Seconds matter and any hesitation WILL cost you

I firget who mentioned it before but I'd absolutely love and pay a pretty price for a BB rev 4 with a PV board in it...

I would just love a BB rev with any board but if one with a Dicodes chip secreted within were around, I would give @HBcorpse 's right arm for it lol!!

Oh I bet that would have been inevitable...a 60W Provape powered BBox?

I wanna play, I wanna play.

BB, Rev 5, 18650...

with a knob.

Priceless.

Hi guys. What a great thread. I'm a lapsed BB user who has just started using his clear Rev3 again and fallen in love for the second time. I have a Rev4 incoming and super excited to try that out. Quick question - can anyone tell me what tool I need to remove the screws to swap out the firing button? I would be hugely grateful.

I bought several BB Rev3's back in the day as I was going to do a little project on them - I am a jeweller by trade. Was going to embellish with diamonds and have some fun. I never got round to doing it. So I have three brand new clear Rev 3's sitting in a drawer. Also about 5 unused Delrin tanks. Does anyone know the value of these things now please?

Its a tough one. Rev 3's are not as highly prized these days. Hbcorpse just sold a couple in the classies and they took a while. I collect them and have been buying cheaply on FB but except for a red or a dober my collection is quite full.

People are still looking for delrin tanks though.

Oh just realised they came with diamonds LOL

No diamonds Krisma. I was going to do a star constellation project and call it Nebula. It was a pet project, not a commercial one but I got distracted. I bought 5 clear Rev3's over a period of releases. I use one, gave away another and have three left over. I think I will just keep them to be honest as they will become obsolete at some point. And they are just so damn sexy still. You wouldn't know how I can find out what tool is required to release the panel screws to button swap on the Rev4 do you? Many thanks.

The little tool that comes in the Geek Vape products fit perfectly.

Can't find that on their website so any other help would still be appreciated. Is it a simple hex Allen key and if so what size? Sorry to be a bore!

Its an imperial size. Hang on i will check.

$5.39 R-607 Cr-V Steel Hex Key Wrenches / Allen Keys Set (7-Piece Set) - 7/64'' + 3/32'' + 5/64'' + 1/16''+ 0.05'' + 0.035''+ 0.028'' at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Its the .05" third from the right

I just actually saw you wanted it for the rev4. That i don't know.

Very interesting question, especially since I just had the same conversation about "Used" BB v.3 a few days ago. AND - IMO and from research/past experiences - It really all depends on 3 main things:

1) Whether or not you are selling on the open market (FB/eBay/another E-Cig forum) or in the ECF "Classies" . . .

2) Then - If the person wants that "color"/Style of v.3 . . .

3) Last - What is or is not included - if anything is included at all . . . is it just the BB w/w-o boro, or delrin tank, or does the package include any more additional tanks, an atty (Atmistique/Ohman "bridge"), batteries, and/or drip tips (i.e., JMK), aftermarket accessories, etc.​


Matter of fact, usually most of the BB v.3 that I found in the "classies" always come in a "Package" of some short . . . There was one Blue Oyster model I found (and lost out on getting) that was $140.00, which included "1 delrin tank, 2 boro tanks, an Ohman integrated drip tip, batteries, & the "care kit" (spares). Only thing you'll need is an atty/atty adapter."

In addition, there are a few BB v.3 that I've seen which included approximately the same type of package for $175 - $200 + . . . and then there is the occasional extreme package that includes all / almost everything else with a lot of aftermarket items too (very expensive $$$$$ ;) ) .

SO - IMO - "Value" all depends on what the fair market is vs what the market will bare . . .

Or better yet - the "Value" comes down to - What someone is willing "sell"/pif/accept and what someone is willing to pay for what they want to get/have, especially since there are some BB v.3 still available on the BB Website for $199.00 - to just over $234.00 depending on which one Ya' want. . . Just Sayin' . . . :facepalm:

BTW: I've also been told by one of our experts ( :wub: ) in purchasing/selling BB "Stuff" that a good deal would be at least up to 30% - if not more, off the original price . . . :thumbs:

Hope this information is helpful to you and those who are looking to find one . . . ;)
(Just an FYI: There are many people - like myself {disability - very limit budget} - that have got to find a deal or it is a No Go . . . ;) )

Very informative response. Thank you. I don't think I'm inclined to sell them as I'd prefer to have them to hand in the years to come. They are as supplied by BB, so come with Delrin tanks and care kit. They can stay part of my vaping museum!
