maybe someone can tell me....who makes ACTUAL stainless gear such as tanks,ect?

i buy alot of gear. every single piece of e cig gear sofar ive purchased with the exception of my AGI tanks thats been advertised as "stainless steel" by the dealers out there has been nothing more than chrome plated brass. ive even emailed dealers and asked about items BEFORE purchasing them, and ive gotten "oh, yea, SOLID STAINLESS STEEL", bought the stuff and low and behold, more chrome plated brass garbage. then when you hit them up on it, they call you a liar. ive only had one single dealer when i hit them up about an item that they advertised as stainless check one of their items and say ".....!" and give me credit AND stopped carrying the item as they said it was the MANUFACTURE that told them it was stainless.

what the heck is up with these people? if its chrome plated brass, advertise it as such and price it accordingly, dont play dumb knowing its chrome washed brass and ignore it!....


soooo...my question is, what manufactuers besides the makers of AGI tanks make their gear out of actual STAINLESS instead of junk?

id really like to know so i know where to direct my money. i dont mind PAYING for quality gear, but some of this junk is just stupid...

I think a problem that you'll run into is a lot of the e-cig vendors that sell a lot of different things don't know for sure themselves what stuff is made of. A vast majority of e-cig devices are manufactured in China, who are well known to cut corners in materials to allow their products to be less expensive to make and to sell. Add to that the language barrier between the vendors and customers.

My suggestion would be to focus on the higher end products from the US and European manufacturers if you can find them. Kir Fanis in Greece makes a number of delivery devices which uses high quality steel, but that is just one that comes to mind. You'll pay top dollar for these types of products and they often have a waiting list or otherwise are hard to find in stock.
