I dont get this minimum retail price thing. If a company buys from the manufacturer at say 30 quid, and the minimum MSRP is 50 quid, what effect is it having on the manufacturer ? they're not making anymore money on it regardless what a vendor sells it for, they've got their 30 quid a piece price. The only thing i can think of is that setting a MSRP minimum is to give the impression the product is worth more , or of better quality than it actually is and as the Russian is pretty much a clone , thats just laughable. I've heard fasttech buy from manufacturers like joyetech using a front company, that front company then sells the products at cost to fasttech, so fasttech are not breaking any agreements with the manufacturers. Its the reasons Joyetech and innokin have suggested that their products on fasttech are fake, when in fact the are legit , just not purchased directly from them from Fasttech, and therefore not being sold with the MSRP. No disrespect intended, but seriously? MSRP/RRP is pretty standard across every industry. Imagine how much petrol the station on the corner could sell if it priced the fuel at 1% over cost instead of 4%? He would sell as many litres as he had and have a 2 mile tailback. Why can't he do that? He can, for a while, but in the end, the petrol distributor sets the RRP/MSRP. If the station sells for less.. well once the tanks are empty...they will stay that way. . MSRP = manufacturers suggested retail price would suggest to me that is a ball park figure to sell at, not the minimum price it can sell at. Apparently its a minimum advertised price (MAP) thats the issue here, thats what was confuzzling me. This page explained it link |

Looking for an Innokin All in one (510 version )if anyone has one and outgrown it. I ordered one of those promotional disposables for my mums friend and she actually enjoyed it. She wouldn't be caught dead with an ego , so seems the innokin is one of the best 510 PCC's available. no need for carts , but a decent battery or two and the charging case and cable would do. will consider other 510 PCC's as well , as long as its got an auto battery and all there  thx , ApO. |

The way the positive and negative tails of the coils are isolated from each other it doesnt suprise me they short easily. Had the same with a few of my vivi nova heads.

i posted off two parcels the other day at the same time. Both where in A6 padded jiffy's.
They both contained one carto tank , in an old efest 18350 box. In one envelope was just the tank , in the other was the tank and 2 bottle of juice.
I gave the parcel with just the tank to the clerk first and it didn't fit through the "letter" slot so had to be sent first class recorded small parcel @ £4.10.
Next was the heavier A6 envelope with the tank and 2 bottles of juice ( 10ml and 20ml) weighed 4 times more than the previous jiffy, but because that extra weight was enough to allow it to drop under its own weight through the "letter" slot, it only cost me £2.10 first class recorded.
Go Figure !!

More Stuff from my vaping bud , This Time we have an AC9 Genesis atomizer purchased from cloud 9 Just last month. This apparently is the newer version with the new type of centre pin setup, the top cap has a 1.5mm Air hole. Included is a small amount of 500 and 400 mesh, some 28 and 30 AWG Kanthal ( not alot , I'd say 30 cm of each ) and a bag'o'Spares. There is a tiny dink on the top cap ( pictured ) but doesnt detract from cosmetics or operation , and if your really OCD about it , don't buy it ( you can get different caps for £14 I'm told from cloud 9 ) RRP Last month was £118 + postage from C9 Looking for £99 £90 Paypalled and delivered.      ApO. |

oh no , have no interest in new builds, especially as most around here are lie rabbit hutches. Looked at a house the other day that was built in 1995 and that was tiny for a 3 bedroom.
