Thank you for responding. That's a $40 hit on a VF, the items I bought from them were thankfully cheaper. Very odd explanation. Whether they're an online retailer or not they are not required to collect tax on any item where "Delivery" takes place out of state. So it's either accounting laziness or a way to put some extra money in their pockets.
No sane business owner would charge tax in situations where he didn't have to, save for very rare cases. I think they know they're pretty much only going to get phone orders on high end, high demand items where purchasers have a similarly high willingness and ability to pay.
The skeptic in me doubts this money will end up being paid to the GA Dept. of Revenue...
Ditto. First unit smooth in and out with HE2s. Replacement would barely take the same battery on one side. Removal required lots of swearing and violent shaking in some order.
So frustrating...
At this point I have no reason to believe a "Perfect" VF2.1 exists, though I know from reading here they do. I envy everyone who was informed of the QC issues and able to inspect the unit they bought prior to purchase.
i think they charged you sales Tax to cover their fee with the credit card companies. But they can't really say that kinda like how you're not supposed to charge the 4% for PayPal
I want a dual 18650 mod for my dual coil builds. The batteries last a lot longer. But after seeing all the issues with batteries not fitting correctly from one unit to the next, I have decided to avoid the vapor flask. For 300 dollars, they should and need to be perfect. Not interested in a plastic mod (BAP) so I guess I will wait for another company to produce a quality dual mod with the DNA40 chip.
Update: My Flask is still perfect in every way. Even my DNA40 is working perfectly...except for the battery meter, that thing is a joke!
This is from the DNA40 Intro thread if you didn't see it.
I vape on my Flasks at work or out and about only. I get 2 full work days before needing a charge. However, I usually top off the batteries after one day's use. I've got more than one Flask so I brought one of the charging cords into work just in case.

Yeah, I saw that. In theory, it sounds like a good idea...wait, no it doesn't.
Eventually I'll plug it in every night. I haven't been doing that just to see how it performs/functions. Like, how low it discharges, how long it takes to charge, etc.

I am now a officially flask owner
Congratulations! It's a great piece of work. I own 2 of them and wouldn't trade them for anything one V1 DNA30 and one V2 DNA40 they are my prized possessions
Update: Sent my Flask in the 12th due to chip problems. It wasn't firing no matter what coil i did on my drippers, but worked perfectly well on my hana dna40. So i received it back in the mail on the 18th-19th and It was fixed! Plus, it came back in the SAME condition i sent it, which is good taking into consideration i was expecting it to arrive with more scratches and dents! Not one single scratch or ding in the finish, and the repair was done accordingly! If you have any doubts like i did, just talk to Preston on the Flask FB group, and you'll be taken care of.
The VF team is amazing. The repair time was no more than a week and a few days, Arrived back FIXED,
no scratches or dents, and getting a hold of Preston is easy as ..... =) Plus i got the new updated
DNA40 chip that shows Celsius
After a good week or so of use, the flask is still performing well.
My experience with the DNA40 with nickel wire: ITS FINICKY AS ......
none of my spaced coils seem to produce any vapor, and hit TP rather fast.
My Touching Micro coils and Macro coils work well, but not as well as what im going to tell you!
The only reliable coil i have gotten to work was a twisted 28gK/28gN wire TOUCHING micro and
macro coil. But i learned most of my touching coils never, almost NEVER
NEVER work unless i glow the touching coil at 10 watts and squeeze them together.
So far its been a week with the coil, and works every time. Set at 450 degrees and its a warm dense
vape in my veritas (vertical coil). Hardly hits TP too! There is some browning in the coil and my cotton
hasn't burned once.

IT'S ALIIIIVE!
My precious has been repaired and returned to me! Cost as much to repair as some mods, but it still works likes a champ and they even managed to level out my buttons for me (not flush, but not crooked anymore).
*happy dance*

Nice congrats!
I decided to leave my buttons as is.
Its nice to see that they are accomodating to certain peoples OCD =)
at first i wanted them to replace the whole top cap, replace the scratched
510 connection, fix the wobbly usb, replace my scratched screen, and level
the buttons but figured its not going to be perfect for long lol...
You're lucky man. I sent my Flask in on the 3rd of Dec. and still don't have it back. I am thankful that VF was willing to fix it for me, but I was hoping to have it back by xmas. Doesn't look like that's gonna happen....

JP? Have you contacted Preston anymore from your initial contact? Your Flask may have been misplaced. Mine was. I got a shipping email from Jamie on a Wednesday. By Friday, it still hadn't shown that USPS had it in their hands. I contacted Preston, he found it packaged, on a desk, under a box. Shipped it out that day.
Hey Jax,
yeah, I've been in contact with Preston. He told me that "they're working on it", but I question whether he really knows the whereabouts of my unit in particular. Preston seems like a very nice guy, but I got the vibe that it was sort of a canned response and that he really doesn't know the status of my unit specifically. I have signature confirmation that the mod was signed for by "K. Spencer" whoever that is, so I know they have it.
I will give it another few days then I'll email Preston again. I am currently on the road for work (flying back from Memphis to Boston as we speak)....who knows; maybe it'll be waiting for me when I return tonight! Although Preston said he'd give me tracking (which I haven't received yet)....
