why do atomizers cost so much more than a cartomizer?

i am not sure but I think atomizers are suppose to last quite a bit longer than the cartomizers thus the price difference but i am finding that the cartomizers are actually lasting longer. I used to use atomizers but now have switched to cartomizers. They last longer and I am finding that the taste is better too
that's why i ask... i used to hate carto's but now they have a couple really nice ones (ikenvape's Fusion, and the new Dual Coil cartos)...
POINT: attys do not last longer imo... in general, in fact i can go through a dse 901 in a week pretty easily. (up to 10 ml / day).

because people will pay the difference in what retailers are selling them for.. there seems to be no good reason why they should cost more. as cartomizers get better, as they now are I think we will see the manufacturers of atomizers drop pricing big time. Hope so..
I have yet to have an atomizer go bad on me. I keep a few of them in rotation, but judging from the experience of other folks, at least 3 of my rotation should have gone bad by now, but I still have never had one go out on me.
Now tomorrow they will all die.

What everyone else said. I've had atomizers die within 5 minutes (and I wasn't overcooking them). Some have lasted for months. Like ukeman, I really like the IKV Fusions and the dual-coils. They are the ones I'll buy in the future. Unless they are too hard to get. I'm with you, I don't understand the price difference.
An atomizer is more versatile, you can use a cartridge, or drip. Supposedly they last longer, but I guess YMMV. I've been using the new edition 5 CE2 clearomizers, not totally unproblematic, but much better than previous editions. I haven't killed one yet, but I also haven't killed any attys yet either, so I can't say which will last longer. But, even if the clearos last 1/5 as long... they are 1/5 the price. I've never cared much for cartomizers or carts, and dripping is too much hassle. Clearos give me the same flavor as dripping, but less hassle as a fill lasts so much longer. You also know how much liquid you have left in a clearo, vs. a carto, and very little is wasted.
They are very different designs, but it would seem that unless an atty lasts much longer due to being higher quality, either a clearo or a carto should cost more, not less, they have more parts than an atty.
I'd like to see a sixth revision clearo, maybe dual coils, and certainly using the same tubing as a 3ml syringe, out of the box and not having to modify them.

i have lots of older 510's mostly joye, that need a cleaning; not performing as well, but it seems to me the DSE 901's are just a weaker link.
unfortunately i just love the nice vape of a DSE 901.... so far i've been vaping off a Fusion for a few days, with many many top offs... still working well. I've had to increase the voltage though as the resistance has gone up from 2.3 to 3.0 currently...
I try to use at least 50% pg too... i've heard more vg will clog easier.
