    I agree. IMO this product is burdened by GV. I waited months until a purchase channel from the maker opened up that didn't profit GV. After waiting to order until that happened, paying more for the unit, I got longer shipping times and extra issues should I need service. But the vendor that lied to us all about this product in the early days didn't get any of my money on the deal. That matters to me.

    You try to buy satisfaction, sometimes that costs a little extra I guess.

    I preordered it, but it was already the actual price by the time I got to it, but I knew there would be issues simply for the fact that people who preordered the first discounted price received their units after I got mine, which I didn't think was right. I hate giving anymore money to them,I refuse to in the future. I even told my mom to stay clear of them, and she loves those type of products, it's just a little disconcerning the costumer service this company provides, I try to make healthier choices but in the long run I just got a bite in the a*s.

    I hadn't heard that part, but it fits..... When customers who had already paid got passed up for employees who then pretended to be objective that killed the deal for me. Hard to enjoy such gear with that kind of Karma attached to it. So if you say they saw a chance to sell the rare stock at higher prices stiffing customers they already had 'in the bag', I don't doubt it for a bit. To me it would make it harder to enjoy the vape.

    looks like puffitup is carrying this thing, so you should be able to get it from someone with a good rep around here.

    Cool. I missed that, thanks for the heads up!

    Then again, are we sure they import them directly? I don't recall which but there's another dealer carrying them I'm told, but they get it from GV. Getting more professional support is great, of course, but IMO little mind it's not the same of GV gets a profit from the deal.

    Thanks again, something to look into. I can't recommend ordering from the maker at a cost and convenience level.

    LOL, the thing I thought is even though a new site seems to have it, it still may be that gv still gets a cut.

    Well I got my friend to contact GV & they won't charge for shipping to me, & it was only 3 dollars to ship, they probably flagged my name for being a pain, but they rep did say she would replace it with a new unit because they have been redone 4 times since the release. (That's not just swapping tubing) I can't wait until this headache is over!!!

    Too bad there are all these issues...I saw the blue version and it looked like an amazingly stealth vape.

    While I haven't had any performance issues I didn't expect, I don't agree it's all that stealthy. It's too big to pass for any but the most casual inspection at close range and more important in use it's nothing like an inhaler.

    It's a fun unit, I use mine a fair bit, but I think you'd 'stand out like a sore thumb' in public if you tried to use one anything like openly.

    I am surprised you use it so much considering your lineup that I know about and a mess load more that I don't know about. Under what conditions do you use it?

    Interesting question. I guess my answer is 'I use it when I feel like it'? I go through cycles or phases depending on how you look at it I guess. Sometimes mostly concentrates, sometimes eatables even. Lately it's been bud. Bender got me started I guess. Then I got Puffit going and started really enjoying playing with it, so I kept it up. Early today I pulled out the DV, but after a bowl I'm charging it and will put it back away I think. OTOH I haven't used Vapman or Iolite in weeks I think?

    Yep, can't make up my mind.....which is OK I guess. One of my lesser failings, really.....considering some of the others.

    Ask your "friends" which one they like...besides you will be testing the cera. The biggest draw for the puffit was stealth and since you say it is no stealthier then the others then it is really not worth the money.

    I consumed so much this weekend I need a little break. Of course I can't stop cause I need my meds but cutting down for a few days. If I have to take a tb I will not be happy cause I will need to go on drugs yuck.

    I agree...if it is not all that stealthy, I can't see the benefit, at least for my needs. Still looks like a fun one to play with though.

    Boy that it is in spades, IMO. I've modified mine a fair bit, something I don't normally do with vapes.

    I do play with it a lot, it's about time to clean it for the second time in fact.

    As far as fitting needs goes, a guy needs to have fun you know.....

    I have too much fun, that's the problem...have to start hiding these toys from the wife :D So I am guessing there is no point in buying the blue, since it is not all that convincing as a puffer?

    When I actually used my unit in public, it was actually very convincing. I went to a concert and used it and someone apologized for lighting a joint next to me for my "asthma". And that was a boy in his 20's so I'm sure if I can trick people who smoke herb, it's probably more convincing to people who don't smoke. It might not exactly look like an actual inhaler, or used correctly like one, but people still see it and automatically think its an inhaler without much explanation.

    Very frustrating!, I shot them an email this morning to see if they even received it because I sent it out on the 1st.
