Ebay bargains?

[satanswombat]

Hi,

I think I have found a good kit deal on Ebay that would give me a 1300mah LCD battery, spare charger and a glass clearo.

The buyer has 100% feedback so should I go ahead with it?

I wouldn't buy e-cig gear from Ebay as it's been banned by Ebay so the seller could be banned at any time

Post us the link and we'll see what we can find you at a similar price

It seems vaping is under attack on multiple fronts. Stupid really as it is definitely helping me quit.

OK,

First off it is NOT a glass tank, it's plastic
It's a auction so may sell for more then the £4.99 it's currently at
It's probably a dual coil cartomiser tank which I would not recommend for a "Ego" type battery, the atomiser resistance is too low and you stand a risk of burning out the switch electronics.
No "beauty ring" supplied so it is NOT a pretty set-up
With that tank on it will look quite top heavy
It also says "NO RETURNS" on the listing, what if it does not work when you get it?
No guarantee

You'd be better off getting one of THESE from a respected vendor and it will have a guarantee.

satanswombat ebay banned the sales of e-cigs & e0-liquids over 4 years ago. I actually started All About E-cigarettes as an ebay community group, 5 years ago. But soon after they banned the sale of e-cigs I had an email from the ebay community moderator saying that unless I removed all links to e-cigs posted in my group, within 24 hours, the group would be closed. It was that night I set up this forum

I have heard recently that eBay may be changing their policy, but in the meantime, I wouldn't buy anything e-cig related via ebay. As Karma says, the seller could be banned at any time or the listing pulled.

Thank you

I thought paradisevape had run out of those.

It was mainly the larger battery I was looking at but I suppose a second 900mah would serve as a spare until I have the money for a VV one.

I'm getting fed up of waiting for mine to charge.

It does look a bit ugly doesn't it.

I'm still trying to find a nice coffee blend and some more sweet ones - the roast coffee one just tastes burnt and a bit icky.

I have a fridge full of 10ml testers at the moment.

BTW the seller you linked to doesn't have 100% feedback in fact they only have 23 positives as a seller & 2 negs

[satanswombat]

Yeah, I got the sellers mixed up. **embarassed look**

Lol don't worry about it satanswombat

Karma ... I think it is only products containing nicotine that eBay ban  ie: e-liquid and pre-filled cartos

[Karma]

Have you not noticed @freefromsmoking these listings never contain 'e-cig' ?

You are quite right  Karma   .. sellers get around that by talking of "shisha" and I am sure eBay are aware that these products are one and the same as "e-cigs". About 6 months ago I put up for auction 2 e-lite batteries and about 10 pre-filled cartridges as 2 separate items. EBay removed the cartridges within 24 hours but let the batteries go to auction. The reason that they gave me for removing the cartridges was that due to nicotine containing products being illegal in some Scandinavian countries eBay could not accept such illegal items for auction.

I still wouldn't buy any e-cig products from e-bay.

We have some great, reasonably priced UK vendors that really do go the extra mile for their customers.

If I fancy a bit of a gamble on cheaper stuff then I'd rather order myself directly from China than an Ebay seller that doesn't know one end of an e-cig from the other
