I wonder how many people have ordered one of these this time?

blakey's right they have gone off the GG site now, I think they're sold out, we ordered ours around the same time and mine is still processing too, so I think we will probably get ours at the same time

[blakey]

There are other sites too, you can order from all but the american one

www.ggecig.com/gg-suppliers/

[esmecullen]

thank goodness we ordered when we did ellen I suppose GG UK were swamped with people ordering!

something to look forward to in the week......... all being well

I would guess that there will be Penelope clones by October 2012..

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see an influx of Chinese rebuildable clones in a few months time, it's already happening now.

And, if it opens up the rebuildable market to people who don't have the means nor want to spend X amount on one, then I personally don't find it a bad thing.

The Lavatube has sort of paved the way, it's made VV vaping more affordable and it wouldn't surprise me either if it's helped the Provari sales, rather than the reverse . . . .

Penelope and other quality rebuildable clones will defo happen But the originals will still be sought after and will keep their value if looked after.. so its win win i guess

[Perpetua]

Absolutely Gaz, because there will always be the purist/enthusiast market, who wouldn't be interested in a ' clone ' . . . applies to so many of the consumables we buy that.

One can co-exist happily alongside the other.

Oh my Lord, youse guys must have so much money!

When I win the lottery/write a bestseller/marry a rich person, I'm gonna go buy a provari and a penelope. And I will vape it while cruising through splott in my cadillac with the top down, and everyone will thing I am the tits.

Until then, my ego twist and vivi and boges and buss pass will do nicely.

Booblay if yo take a look at my sig banner you will see how much I've saved by not buying cigarettes. I have chosen to re-invest some of this money into this, my new hobby. When you've been off the fags for a while the savings really can mount up

Nope far from it Boo . . . I'm as tight as a tick with everything else, so as I can indulge my one remaining passion in life.

As Perp said, vaping is my only remaining habit and the only hobby that costs me money.

I don't drink and despite being female don't spend on clothes, shoes or handbags. Even though I've spent quite a bit getting started on vaping it's not much more than I would have spent on cigarettes in the last month and expense will be a lot less over time

Ahhh. See, you were all proper fag smokers before vaping came along and swept you off your feet like a sexy prince.

Me, I was a social rollie smoker, so spent bugger all. Vaping though - have spent LOADS so far. In fact, the amount I've spent on trying crap juices and clearomisers and a V2 starter kit, I might as well have gotten a provari and penelope...these things we must learn, eh?

But totally agree with you all - this vaping lark I am passionate about and don't mind spending all the money on...what else am I gonna spend it on? Shoes? No ta.

part of me has often thought that I should have gone straight for a Provari, but, it's a learning curve, has been fun along the way - hind sight is a wonderful thing if you have it before hand

And yes, Ellen, like you, tis one of my only remaining habits/vices/whatever you want to call it. Apart from books and occassional nice cold beer and filthy takeaway food. And it used to be drugs and loadsaloads booze and silly clothes that made me look like a dickhead.....

So yes, a nice expensive but enjoyable vice.....

three cheers for vaping!

Even if someone joined the site who had just won the lottery, I would recommend that they went through the starter kit / clearomiser phase before jumping on the Provari/Penelope bandwagon. I think you need to learn How to vape, What to vape, all about PG/VG, nic strength, flavour choice, VV, etc etc before you settle on what should be your final setup
