Which do you prefer? Clone or authentic?

[optsmk]

Although I prefer Authentics, let's face it. They are very expensive. I have both authentic's and clone's and I have found that they both work equally good. So, if you can afford an authentic, but one. If you can't afford one, just get a clone. Either way you will be happy with it.

I have watched a ton of youtube videos and some reviewers swear some of the clones are junk because they didn't work for long. But i have not had any problems with my clones yet, and I have had some of them for a long time.

I'd only buy a Provari clone because, well Provari are the best aren't they. "What, what was that?" "They're not?" "I can't hear you!" *SNOOZE*

Carry on

 

[Wolfenstark]

So far I have ordered one clone and one authentic.

If I read many people whose opinion I judge to be good say the Authentic is good I will consider buying that , if they say the clone is as good or better i will consider buying that.

If you do, then we can fight crime as the Vapor Men who appear in a fog of righteousness and deliver justice. I have to lose a few pounds first or the tights will just look silly.

Who cares..

mine's bigger and all that sort of dribble...

I've had both and at this point I find the authentic ones to be a waste of cash. Some clones are so good you don't even know the difference. Why spend 200 when you can spend 20 in my opinion. But I also have a ton of vape gear. If I only could have one mod maybe I would like it to be real, but I would rather have 15 fakes that all act/look/feel the same.

My only real ones are the Provari's and my new sigelei 100w box mod. This box mod is slowly taking over everything anyways for me.

Just my opinion of course.

 

[yoitstj]

I have bought both authentic and clones. I now only buy authentic. Ive found that every clone I have makes me want the authentic that much more and then I feel like I wasted my money on the clone. Classic buyers remorse. But yea, I prefer authentic, but I dont force my preference on others or look down on anyone who vapes on a clone. Vape what you can afford and dont smoke.

 

[Hawaiian Nate]

I prefer authentic, but my bank account prefers clones... It's an ongoing struggle between the two of us. Damn!!! I got baited into this thread. Anyways my question to you would be, if you had the money and resources, which would you buy?

Nope, women have the size thing too. Just in different arenas.

... To support ... I buy only authentic.
... Clones could be as good and even better ... buy clones.
... Clones could be good ... Authentic may have not have good clones... buy whatever you wish.
... For my collection ... buy authentic.
... Do not have money ... buy clones.

What have I missed?

This pretty much sums up the whole arguement. I have some clones and I have some authentics.

I personally don't give a crap what someone spends their money on. To say a clone is junk is silly. To say an authentic is better is silly. An authentic can be a piece of crap too. If you wanna drop 200 bucks on a device why would I care? If you want to drop 200 dollars of quarters in a fountain I wouldn't care either.

Oh and that really, really should be your signature

 

[Asbestos4004]

I have 200 authentic mechs and about 250 authentic RDA/rbas. I was drag racing Air Force One in my G9 when I stumbled on this thread.... Wait, that wasn't me.....that's another dude ....I'm having an identity crisis. Please resume your discussion.

Is it an authentic hamburger?

 

[cha6040]

Personally, I will research the clone and if it is just as good as the authentic and waaay cheaper, I'm going with the clone. I have one authentic mods and one clone mod and they both work very well and I plan on buying a clone RDA in a couple days that got great reviews across the board.

 

[keepsmiling]

Which one?

 

[boomhower1820]

Just depends on the product. Mechs? Clone. Toppers? Clone. Variable voltage? Authentic. For stuff that is essentially formed metal clones work for me. For electronics I prefer authentic. The chips in the clones are different and not as good IMHO.

 

[VA Vince]

I prefer authentic, why? I don't no, I just prefer it. Like Bluecat said, who cares, it's my cash...
