I was kinda second guessing myself after spending close to $200 in a couple of weeks on vape stuff (MVP, istick and a pair of Subtanks) now I don't feel so bad! But like I watch YouTube videos, I'm on here I'm in facebook groups, I windowshop online vape shops...is it an obsession? Maybe slightly. But like the man said, there's much worse things to spend time and money on.

I broke even the beginning of the month. The next few months won't be nice on the bank account as I try to future proof my inventory. Planning on getting into DIY just need to find some nic and a couple of replaceable battery mods.

But I do feel so much better.

I just ordered a Veritas clone tonight. And I'm looking at the fact that one of my mods is now over a year old, and 2 others are nearly a year old, so it might be a good idea to get another sometime soon. But I'll go cheap again -- thinking a Sigelei 30w box; 101vapes has them for a good price, when they're in stock -- about the same price I paid last April for my Sigelei Zmax! -- hopefully I'll get the notification of in-stock when I have the money to buy it! :D

Plus, you know, with any hobby, there's an initial investment; vaping can save you a little right from the get-go, if you're careful, but once you do get a whole bunch of great hardware and learn to DIY your own ejuice, THEN you can save a massive amount of money; spending some when you have it and it's convenient, but not needing to always spend a lot, when times are a bit leaner. I so prefer it this way!!!

I agree with AndriaD. At the beginning I was spending absurd amounts of money on vape gear. After a long search I finally found the mod for me, collected about six of them. Build my own coils and DIY. Now I hardly spend any money on vapeing at all. Sure beats dropping $14.00 a day on ciggrettes with nothing to show for it. Only back draw now...I do miss vape mail :unsure:
If I weren't stocking up for vapocalypse, I would be vaping for free at this point. I think most things will still be available in the future, just a lot more expensive.
