Couple of problems with this post:
You are completely discounting word of mouth. Ive referred dozens upon dozens of people to the Provape website in my 5+ years of vaping. Other Provari owners routinely do the same.
You also fail to realize that the more moving parts something has the more apt it is to break. That one button works beautifully and almost any Provari owner out there will tell you its a non-issue. Its one of those things where you actually have to use it for a few days to understand the beauty of it.
Do you know when I check my battery? When its on the charger. Ive been vaping with the same setup for long enough to know how long my battery will last.
As far as offering box mods go, thats against Provapes design philosophy. They specialize in one type of mod and they do it extremely well. Arguably better than anyone else out there.
And I think youre wrong about internet sales appealing only to hobbiest. I think they appeal to smart, money savvy consumers who do their research and dont mind waiting a few days for an exceptional product.
The amateurs and hobbiest are the ones who are visiting the vape shops.Theyre the ones who are being sold crappy mods and juices, because theyre the so-called latest and greatest, all while paying three or four times what that product is worth.
Your post above even alludes to this by saying " No smoker ever says I want to quit, better check the internet."
The aforementioned smokers would be, by definition, complete amateurs in the world of vaping.
And they arent really Provapes target demographic to start with.
Provape
Pro
Professional
Vape
hmmm, Professional Vapers.
Imagine that
Just can't see "Professional Vapers" and not think of Victor.
I bought a Provari for one of two reasons. I'd like it and it would be my new mod. Thats not gonna happen because I don't like the tube and I hate the one button.
The fail safe plan was I'd hate it enough that it would lead me to quit vaping and I'd be clean. Thats the way its gonna go I think but I'm not ready to quit just yet.
Either way 100% worth what I paid for it.
