Good searching, FB.  I like the dark blue as well, it's a lot better than the blue they do for the v2.5s, which reminds me of the colour of paint they use in public toilets. |

Seeing as I went through 12.5ml of juice the other day Bathy, 8ml would probably just accommodate my average daily intake.  I shall have to check them out as well.  HOW MUCH?  You are truly a vaping goddess. Bathy - will you be getting the coloured versions as well (I'm thinking specifically black), as chrome is a bit bling for my conservative taste, but I do like the idea of the metal tanks with juice-viewing cut-outs, as it's a PITA trying to guess how much is left in my current metal tanks? |

I'm about 12 weeks in now, and rebuilt my first Nova coils last week. Turns out the pure cotton wick I'm using doesn't actually wick in any way whatsoever, but I'm happy with the method and the coils are dandy. I'm happy with the Novas, but my plan was always to get something a bit more substantial and smarter, not for out and about or work use, as I'll continue to use my Novas for that, but something I can use at home that'll give me a great vape and that'll last years, and that looks the d's b's as well for when I'm out in the evening. I've read the reviews and watched the vids on the Spheroid v2, looked on Vapist's site and it was available, but I didn't pull the trigger due to the shiny finish, as I really don't want a shiny one. I've subsequently seen good methods of de-shining stainless, and will almost certainly get one in future. With that dismissed, although i wasn't looking for a genny at this stage, I loved reading about the way that this one developed ukvapers.org/Thread-UKVA, a real thought process with input from people who were very experienced in the whole genny field, so got myself on the list for a type c with a brushed finish. I may change my mind and ask for the brushed type a, but either way I'll be getting something that looks and vapes great (allegedly). It's not SS, it's food-grade ally, but for £62 I thought it was a good deal. In the interim, I'm also getting a couple of the Aga T's as they are a fab deal and also look smart, so I'll be able to practise on them while I'm waiting for the other to be made. I can't think whether they're shiny or not, but now have an idea how to dull the finish, so am really looking forward to receiving them. |

I mean look at this, people are that against the company that they won't even buy a second hand product which none of there money will be going to the company. I don't think it's the make of the product, which are actually regarded as generally good quality, the problem is that because the seller has paid more initially so when they come to sell the second hand price takes a bigger hit than goods from other vendors. Take the same product:lets call it a "Widget" From Vendor A the widget costs the seller £15 new but the same type of widget is available from other vendors is £10 new. The problem comes when you try to sell your your widget which is now second hand, bought from vendor A you only ask £10, thinking it's a good price but because it only cost £10 new from vendor B it does not look good value to others. As a seller whilst the goods you are selling may be in pristine condition the buyer does not have the guarantee that he may have got from a vendor. Of course there are exceptions, the goods may be rare or collectable which may warrant a higher price, there are many variables. Just my 10p's worth. This is the way I was looking at. My initial point was tongue in cheek to a certain extent re the logo involved, but those batteries are available cheaper brand new elsewhere, with a warranty. The fact that TW puts a premium on its pricing means that there's far less chance of the reseller achieving that price, even on a day old battery. |

The TW logo is worth about -£10, so about £15 for a secondhand battery sounds about right. each to there own. I buy from them because they are my closest ecig shop plus I know they are official joyetech and I have plenty of comeback on warranty etc if anything goes wrong. Aside from that, the seller is a very decent guy and I often just go up for a chat after work. If he sold other brands, I would have other brands but he doesn't. When he opened his business, he decided to use tw as his supplier. The twist is now for sale in the classified section including a few extras. allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=classified&thread=13077&page=1#262282As you say, each to his own. |

Moon, do you grow from seed ? well not you personally TBH Sadie, nature and stuff's not really my bag. I wouldn't know what to do with the plants even if I did manage to grow them, so you may as well keep them for yourself. PM on its way in the next ten minutes. |

Taste is a very subjective thing. Some people just like ugly things. |

I would buy 4 or 5 V3 and buy some replaceable heads for them rather than 30 CE4's.. Postage seems a bit high probably because of the CE4.. This would be a much better option IMO. |

I don't think they could have made that look any cheaper if they'd tried.

Lol Moon, took a second read to realise how tongue in cheek your post was And out of their 8 members, one is Vapeaholics (the OP of this thread) & another is Pulse e-cigarettes (Simon ). So that leaves an exposure of 6 members  I bet that's how eBay started out. I might see whether it's possible to buy into Vapebay as it could be equally big one day. |

Vapeaholics, if you look at the new members forum, you will see that we do welcome new members with open arms & go out of our way to help them. I think the reason members are getting twitchy about your scheme is due to the fact that both your blog & new venture is a money making exercise & it's therefore unfair to use this forum to help launch & promote your business. I totally understand that this might be seen as unfair...But I do not make any money out of vapeaholics. I am also not any part of pulse. They are there own company. Yes I ran a promotion with pulse for a free give away. This was purely promotional for the launch of my blog. Vapebay wont make money unless people pay for premium features which I do not expect anyone to do unless they actually want to. The reason for the premium charges is only to cover server costs as running a website you must understand that servers and software costs money. I didn't set out to use the forum to promote anything, I saw it more as spreading the word to other vapers about other vaping related things/sites out there. Ignore the doubters, Vapeaholics, I think the idea is brilliant and is exactly what Vapers in the UK have been in need of in order to sell their unwanted vaping gear. At the moment, such folk are having to make do with listing their unwanted items for free on fora with limited exposure to only several thousand people, whereas your ingenious idea would give them the opportunity to sell these items for a small fee (if they feel like paying it) and give them exposure to the eight registered users on Vapebay. I don't see how it can possibly fail. |

Just hang on in there, it will get better. I went through two weeks of it but kept telling myself that I was still getting the nicotine, was not smoking and the tasteless vapour I was inhaling still tasted better than the stale taste of burning leaves. Menthol was all I could taste at one stage and even then it was very muted, have you got any?? Pam thanks pam .. im hanging there dont worry just had my sister around vaping on my ego ..she likes it .. says she going to get one so i pointed her in andrews direction at market stall in the mean time i sent her on her way with the 10 stickies i had left over from 2 weeks ago sat in the car waiting for a new home so now i have no stinkies not that i intended using them anyway and no lighter nor ash tray in the house all sorted ...just hope the taste buds come back soon i have put some crystals into an old usa mix but not tried it yet,,never been one for menthal so dont know if i ever will I hated menthol fags, but I stick a few drops of menthol crystal/pg mix in loads of my flavours for a great throat hit with that authentic cough sweet flavour. I had real trouble with tasting anything a few weeks back and menthol was the only thing that gave me any kind of flavour whatsoever. Not brilliant with my morning coffee, though. |
