Nice!!! Unwrap those suckers and report back with your findings

Where did you get it if you don't mind me asking?

I bought all online, the shop is Apollo Premium vaping (www.apollo.com.mx) it is a Mexican branch of a US brand (as far as I know) that sells internationally.

From the book of faces:

We weren't quite sure whether we'd be able to have a batch this Saturday, hence no update, but I can announce that we managed to get things squared away for tomorrow.

Jade G10 panels came today. Waiting on buttons and more hybrid tips.

Please report as to the fit and finish of these...

Really looking for aftermarket panels that match the fit and finish of stock panels, and Odis design has already set the expectation of questionability for someone I trust.

I just don't want to spend $80-100 to find out these fit like bollocks.

These mum's are terrific. Fit is perfect. Finish is more like my 1911 panels; they have a uniform texture that feels great. No dropping this thing with sweaty hands. These could be oem offerings.

Yes, the prices are in pesos. It is more for us fue to import fees and all, but it's almost the same as buying directly from BB Shop as the shipping and everything adds up and then there's chance to not get the package at all and have it "destroyed" (stolen) by customs.

I'm not sure if there are options for different/better prices, as there seems to be some stores/shops in the US.

FINALLY got my Ratblack DNA60 without it going OOS

This was going to be my last BB until I saw these. Don't know why but I think I need a couple of these too just because of the engraving.

 

[kas122461]

When I saw the Blems become available, I just knew I would have a better chance of getting one of these, and I did. I just took my time put it in the cart and checked out, no stress at all. The cash for this is going to have to come out of my emergency fund account, but I have a Rat Black ordered.

I hope it comes with the outer panels, I assume it does, but it does not say that any where.

 

[oplholik]

Be interesting to see, and hear just what you get. These would make it easier to get my next BB. Glad to see BB selling the blems.

I just ordered a couple of more things , the care kit, one more bridge, and one of his no bull shiz tips, you wanted some of those didn't you?

[oplholik]

Yes I did, and I got one ordered. Glad to see them finally come up.

 

[DougFNJ]

Sigh. Just ordered a second Ratblack to have a backup plus a couple of screw in tips. This hobby is addictive.

Really? I didn't know that.

 

[HBcorpse]

Anyone get that sinking feeling when these BLEMS hit the site?

I don't know why but my first reaction was that it feels like the beginning of the end...

 

[oplholik]

I don't understand, why would this be the beginning of the end? It's a good way to get some money out of what he probably used to just scrap. I have bought blems from Reos, and Provape, good deals for excellent mods.

I think it is good to see BB maximize all their money and possibly hit a price point that will attract new buyers. It would shock the hell out of me if they went away given the demand seems to continue to increase.

LOVE the engraving

 

[TheotherSteveS]

I was going to stick at two BBs but might be tempted by a blem next time they turn up. Bet they are still pretty much perfect!!

 

[oplholik]

The engraving is nice, and you definitely won't see these popping up for sale as non blems. If these are indeed complete BB's, and I don't know why they wouldn't be, the price point definitely will increase my chances of getting more BB's.

 

[classwife]

...any odds on how long till it gets counterfeitted ?


ohmagosh !

What's the $ on the Blems ?
(probably the only way I can get one)

 

[oplholik]

I'd bet the main reason to label one a blem, is some slight imperfection in the anodizing.
