Finally pulled the trigger on my first Provari a few minutes ago. I went with the red/black hybrid with a blue display, and by the time I added batteries (2 x490s and 2x650s), the extension, a tank ring, and some battery cases, I was pushing close to $300. I KNOW it's a good decision and I'll see a big difference from my eVic, but my wallet hurts. Want to reassure me that I won't have buyer's remorse when it gets here?

Also, for people who have ordered them recently, what does "3-5 business days before shipping" work out to in the real world? Any idea when I should expect to see it here in Virginia? Thanks!

I remember mine was FAST!


Just checked my emails & USPS tracking..


Shipped within 24 hours of ordering..

They do 2-Day Priority Mail, and did indeed get it 2 days after it shipped cross-country (I had to sign for it)...


With batteries & extension cap, mine came out to like $240..
Worth every penny! :headbang:


Only reason why I don't have a 2nd one is because I'm cheap & I'm waiting for my non-ProVari to break first..

I still might buy the new one if it ever comes out... :D


Make sure to post pics.. Curious to see the blue LED with red/black...

Enjoy!

...be sure to be home on the day of delivery to sign for it.

While this is probably generally true, there have been reports that sometimes USPS will just leave it, anyway (if it's a locked mailbox, for example)..


I believe you can also pick it up later at the post office if you aren't around...

They ship fast.

I was a proud eVic user, but then The Ocelot convinced me to try a ProVari. Now, I have three ProVarii, and my former eVic is someone else's mod. You will likely be very happy with your new mod, and you are wise to order the batteries with it...

Be ready, sir.

One will never get it, until they GET IT!
Congrats on your purchase.

If you watch the Phil Busardo video tour of the ProVape facility, you'll notice they have lots of ProVaris in stock, waiting on the shelves, so most likely yours will ship out tomorrow. The 3-5 day thing is probably just in case they don't have the one your ordered ready to go.
When I ordered my Zombie Mini, I thought for sure I'd be waiting the 3-5. I placed my order early morning EST, by dinner time same day I had shipping notice!

That was part of the impetus to order it - the eVic will be someone else's. I have a friend who's a broke law school student trying to quit smoking on an ego starter kit and having a hard time. I figure I get a new one, she gets the old one, and the extra power helps her out.

I think the new 30 watt eVic Supreme may be next on my "to be acquired" list, though. That thing looks great, and it's getting some killer reviews...
