When you think YOU paid TOO MUCH for "coils" --- there is always someone who was REALLY FOOLED elsewhere!

[Don Robertson]

I like to 'cruise' Amazon. Seldom do I see anything as inexpensive there as through our ECF "suppliers. Typically items are 20% higher - but today I stumbled upon replacement "coils" Kangertech coils 1.5 - 1.8 - 2.2 - 2.5 5 Pack (1.8) ..... for the amazing price of $40.00 for a PACK OF FIVE! [FONT=Arial, sans-serif]I thought, "Perhaps it is a pack of "FIVE Five-Packs" - not a massive rip-off; high, yet not a seller looking to put the screws to some new 'vaper' who has no idea and being a loyal Amazon buyer figures the best prices are always found on Amazon. NOPE ---- it's for FIVE COILS - period! The seller should be ashamed! The REVIEWER? What can I say, he loved the service:[/FONT]

"Awesome, they came early!"
"They are as advertised and work like a charm for both the evod and protanks"
"They came early which is why I will be a loyal customer."

I HAD TO take the liberty of contacting "Dan" (or at least I hope it gets to him) and telling him about ECF, The fellow was rpped so royally he needs education deluxe before he spends himself back on to real cigarettes because of cost. Yea yea -- I stuck my nose in where it should have been left OUT. I couldn't resist. It just is NOT right to use that crap about "whatever the market will tolerate" to sucker in "suckers".

Flame away - I know some will disapprove simply because it draws attention to the hallowed grounds of ECF. Well if the grounds can't handle the heat they are shaky foundation and need added support. I think it will be just fine and a new and thankful member will be generated. If not - blame Senile Old Man Donnie.

THANKS ECF VENDORS FOR NOT BEING RIPOFF ARTISTS!

Good for you Don. THAT is highway robbery.

 

[BigCatDaddy]

Buyer Beware, Yes?? I've seen some way over-priced stuff on Ebay too, you gotta keep your head up, no doubt!!

 

[retrox]

I fully endorse what you did.

 

[3bet]

"Dan" probably didn't really buy those if he knew it worked with EVOD and Protanks he's probably just a fake 5 star reviewer trying to trap the unknowing. You should give the guy one star based on price and tell everybody how big of a rip off it is.
Just my

p.s. A large poker web forum I belong to constantly has this discussion about new poker books. example:
"Look it has a lot of 5 star reviews"
"Oh that books only been out for 12 hours. How did they read a 300 page book and understand it it 12 hours?"
"Oh I didn't think about that. How does that happen?"
"Obviously they either read the book early, which is unlikely, or they are buddies/people getting paid by the author. Plus if they read it early they're probably buddies of the author."

That type of thing.

 

[DetraMental]

I would help someone I saw getting ripped off as well! Good job!

Dear Mr. Robertson:

Thank You for your concern. Amazon does not regulate the pricing policy of our customers; we simply provide a modality allowing individuals and companies to present articles for sale at a price they feel is representative of fair market value. The decision to purchase is up to each individual buyer - not Amazon. Obviously many buyers have taken advantage of the opportunity to purchase from this well established seller who has a most excellent reputation. Please note that the reviews are all 'positive' with each customer indicating complete satisfaction with the product, shipment and delivery time as well as customer service. It is most difficult to believe this seller is taking advantage of customers considering the stellar reviews on record. Perhaps you would do well to review the price-point which you claim items can be found as they may have increased over time and may infact be much higher than you indicate.

In the future please do not be so quick to judge any seller until you have all facts at hand as future claims such as this one could result in suspension of your valued ability to not only review products purchased, but also to purchase products on Amazon in general.

Correct me if I am wrong. It appears that they (amazon) have threatened you with suspension? WTH?

 

[vaperature]

He's listing it as "KangeTech" (no "r" in it) so it's also probably a knock off.

Here's the real KangerTech listing

Amazon.com: Protank 2 replacement heads - 5 heads: Everything Else

Still pretty pricey at $9.30 plus shipping, Here's the one you're talking about

Amazon.com: Kangertech Coils 1.5 - 1.8 - 2.2 - 2.5 5 Pack (1.8): Everything Else

Could also be that Kangertech is posting the fake one as a shill to make their $9.30 one sound cheaper. I don't know.

Basically a shut up and buy more stuff letter. Lovely aint it?

Good Job Don!!! I sure do give you credit for looking out for the average joe.

When I buy it's from a vendor. I look at various vendors and compare prices. Then I go searching for a coupon. Hope most take heed on prices.

 

[patrao_n]

On ebay I have seen someone selling a 1/16 28 gauge micro for 5 bucks. It was 1.2 ohms. No atomizer or anything just a coil by itself. That's highway robbery. Considering you can make one for a penny lol.

Sent from my SM-N900T

 

[vaperature]

Ahhh, wait, I see what's going on here, BOTH items I linked to above ship from "Unique Visions." The $40 one is the shill for people to think the $9 one is a good deal. What scumbags.

Everyone should post a one star review to set the record straight on that.

This does NOT sound like a reply from Amazon. Are you sure you didn't contact the vendor Unique Visions and have gotten a reply from them. I've never heard of Amazon threatening to cancel your account just because you made a complaint about a vendor. Nor would they refer to a vendor with only 153 ratings over 12 months as "well established seller who has a most excellent reputation" LOL, that sounds like the vendor himself tooting his own horn.

 

[Zealous]

That person is a big jerk for trying to sucker people like that. I love how the "person" who reviewed the product & gave it 5 stars has never reviewed anything else EVER lol. I TOTALLY believe that reviewer is a real person lol.

 

[vaperature]

LOL, now there's five one star reviews on the page. Goes to show you, don't mess with a member of ECF. LOL. Also, that language in the alleged note from Amazon about "learning all the facts first" sounds oddly familiar.

 

[BillyWJ]

That seller seems to mostly sell DVD box sets, and a couple boxes of Kanger heads.

You know, you're right. I just skimmed it, it just read like a standard boilerplate response, but yeah, this is a complete forgery.

I would send that to Amazon Customer service, and ask if it's really from them. If this person is pretending to be an Amazon rep, then I think that account might just get yanked.
