I saw another member post a thread on here a few days ago asking about the real joye ego and the look-a-likes and if anyone knew the difference and the vendors who sold the genuine egos. After I read that thread I got curious myself and started doing some research because I have bought egos and ego tanks and wanted to make darn sure all my products were the genuine article. Glad to say all the products I bought are great and are the real mccoy. So if you want to buy from a vendor who is selling the genuine article then buy from Freedomsmoke USA, Good Prophets, Cignot, and Totally Wicked. Now don't get me wrong I am sure there are plenty more good and reliable dealers out there these are just the vendors that I have purchased from. Happy vaping
