What are the chances - you mention Karen and, poof, someone comes in here asking about her?

She has a prodigious collection, to be sure. Wayne had the most, I believe - 200-ish (but then, he had kind of an inside connection). Dennis has probably bought over a hundred, but he kept gifting them away. I have 20-something today, having given a few away to friends.

Atties, on the other hand, well... that might have gotten out of control. Here's a pic of about half the stockpile (the rest are in cold storage awaiting the vapegeddon).

WOW times 10,000000000! Talk about a surprise! I feel like a kid on Xmas! Just picked up the mail and found a package from someone I “didn’t know” but love :). It contained a beautiful Narda from @Vapefiend, with a note that it was from @Vapefiend and @JC Okie!! How cool is that?? To be part of such a loving Reo family. Thank you!!!! Let’s keep this Reo PIF going k?

I also like that idea of @Vapefiend to tag some folks that we miss seeing. How about @Rule62?

I’m thinking I’m gonna do some research about these Nardas. Any favorite single coil builds? I’m so excited!!

So Karen (aka Nerak) got right back to me on Facebook. She is a-ok! Good news.
The Reos FB Page has been archived and was NOT deleted.

As you might recall, she has a beautiful collection of woodvilles from over the years but unfortunately she is unable to have any of them repaired, modified, or up-graded since Reos changed hands. Tough spot to be in.

Feel free to message her on FB if you have any ideas. Good to know that our LONG time friend and helper is a-ok. :)

Big shout out to @JC Okie for sending me her chalice ii! Jan has a real rare chalice ii on her hands; one of the first made. Unfortunately being that it was one of the first made, it has brass posts and guess who can’t vape anything brass? This guy :( I taste brass/copper/nickel. Only thing that works for me is SS. This is the same reason I’ve never vaped the rm2 or atomizers with non SS parts.

Jan did however send me a few other items to play with so it’s not a total bust! We also helped out @Robinowitz with her search for a narda (that was fun!)

In conclusion I’ve sent Jan her chalice ii back. I wouldn’t be able to use/enjoy it and being that it’s a piece of history here, and was loved by Jan so much, it should be with it’s rightful owner!

My search for a chalice ii continues but I got to experience the kindness of REOVille and even pass it on!

Can’t wait for the next opportunity.

Yep. Catfish had us on quite the run, no? These days, with most atties coming with bf pins, it's a lot harder to stay au courant. I miss having that single source.

I never quite figured out how to get on the list. Then squonk attys proliferated and I found several that I liked.
