This is how you know you made it in the E-cig world. The people that have knocked off the GLV this time are true scumbags as well. I don't have to tell you guys that this is a bad knock off . They even stole my pics. YOU CAN NOT GET A GLV FROM CHINA!!!! This thing is a plastic pice of crap.

They didn't even try to hide the fact that they are using your pics, this is unbelievable. I am keeping an eye on your site, when I hit my 6 month smoke free mark, I am getting a GLV-2. I just hit 4 months and can hardly wait but promised my husband no mods til I hit 6 months. I love your metallic colors, wish there was a metallic pink but think I will go with one of the blues. Your products speak for themselves, no cheap China knock offs are going to come close.

Wow. I would be mad if I were you.

Nothing fake can compare to a real GLV2!

I have mixed feelings. I'm mad, but at the same time I'm kinda flattered. Who knows it may bring me more orders. Call it God, Karma, or what ever you want..(I prefer God) , but these things always work out for the best with me. Not to much I can do anyway. I should call Geoffrey Figer lol.

Sorry to hear this, I feel your pain! I often hear the quote, "Copying is the sincerest form of flattery", to which my response is "Flattery doesn't pay the bills!" LOL

You may want to consider patenting your design. I am no expert, but i did learn a few things in applying for my patents. There are many misconceptions floating on the web that you can't because flashlights use similar technology or that ecigs are "simple" or that china owns all the patents on ecigs. Or that once you release an item to the public, you can't patent it.

"Simple" products can be patented. Ecigs also present a new scope of invention and thus many designs are patentable. Ecgis are not flashlights. Yours is quite unique. Even unique shapes can be patented.

Theres also a misconception that patents are useless as these companies are in China, however, that isn't necessarily true. You can go back against companies who import and sell your pirated designs, also, you can seek injunctions against the importation into the US of pirated designs. Patent applications are relatively affordable too. Shoot me a PM if you want.

I have heard so many great things about your product, and enjoyed looking at the progression videos of the GLV....will be getting one in the next 3 months (the wife won't allow another mod after the Ali'i...lol)

Well, the name in that Chinese company says it all, Skyda "Mould" Co., Ltd.

Like someone else said, get your product patented if you haven't already.

Oh my goodness! I can't believe that. I love the super mini your coming out with even though I don't own a GLV yet and I'm upset for you. How can people do this and sleep at night. You have worked hard on what you do and to have someone take what is yours and your pictures non the less is just blatant disrespect in my opinion! I'm sorry that this has happened to y'all.
