Want a purple reo mini when can I get one?

I want a purple reo mini box mod but you are out of stock! In fact you are out of stock on alot of stuff, when will you be restocking them? I am going to Vegas in a week and a half an want one to stealth vape in the airport!

I think there are a whole lot of vapers who would like a Reo, it seems they are incapable of producing enough to satisfy demand.

This was posted by Rob (redeyedancer) just last night. "Yes I will put up metal mods next week .I have 430 grands going out for tumbling Tuesday and 300 mini mods. I have to work on metal all next week so I can have time for the wood mods."
REO's are made by one man. They are not mass produced. Rob has been very busy putting out the Woodvil and Mini Woodvils. He had Grands and Mini's on site through much of the time.
He is now starting a new project producing a Midi Woodvil. The wood REO's are unique and handcrafted. So, buying a REO might be a little wait. But the quality PV you receive is well worth it.

The anodizer that Rob is using at this time is not doing purple. Will have to wait and see if this changes.

So the color comes from the anodize and not paint? If so that's interesting. Of course paint would wear and peel but if it's in the anodize, it's imbedded in the metal. Pretty kewl if it works like that.

Yes, the finish on the Grand and the Mini are anodized. A great finish for durability and looks.

MacDiver, I see you have a polished black. That is not only anodized, it was hand polished BEFORE it was anodized. I see people refer to the color polished finish as "clear-coated"; that is not the case. The polished black is the result of careful hand crafting. The finishes of the REOs are as meticulous and durable as the rest of the mod.

No matter what color, the Rep's are great mods. They are my barn/work mods because they can withstand a drop and keep on working. I even dropped a mini in a water bucket, didn't miss a beat.

You can always check the classifieds but be very leery. Haven't bought anything from there yet but I've heard some horror stories. Just make sure they've been a member for a while and are pretty active here. Those are some of the things that I look for when I'm looking to buy something.
