The folks of Thermo vape clearly stated that they will be the only ones who will be selling the cera due to the fact that otherwise, if sold by third party vendors, the cera will become too expensive.
I haven't found any retailer that sold/sells the INH004 in Europe but it would be awesome if I knew one,
it's more fun to know when I buy these things it doesn't take so long to get here :rockon:

Belgian, click on this link: INH XP and you will find it ;)

Alpa Cino, imHo your pov is a bit biased.
Are folks in Europe paid in dollars ? :D
No, in Euro, so we are paid €300 instead of $300...
Following your thoughts, this would mean that we get 30% more than an american paycheck.
Moreover, when you look at a price in dollars, do you compute the shipping cost from the USA to Europe, the customs taxes (4%) and the VAT (from 19 to 21% depending) ? ;)

But you get a point, some time, video games and stuff are way cheaper in dollar, just looking at a raw number. I have seen Assasin's creed at €75 when it was $65 in the USA...
Importing has a cost alas.
This is why they pay so much for a nice french cheese or a nice belgian chocolate in the USofAs :D

If I have learned anything here, its screw the pre-order game. Something seems to go badly. I propose (in our case) you wait until you see the clouds it produces and secondly, make sure your buying those same models(final versions, in case of last minute changes) from an e-retailer or the manufacturer who has them in stock. :2c:

you're welcome.

Yep, I don't think there are pre orders for the Ascent, but as I said in an other thread, Given the company, the owners/makers (that I happen to have meet) and their way of doing business I believe the Ascent should be a really good portable vape.
Wait and vape. ;)

First vape i'd really consider preordering but I agree with d33....need to see some vids and some testimonials. I'm apphrehensive about the rubber smell/mystery vapour from the DV even though it's supposed to have been solved.

I'm debating whether to get this or the PAX. Both seem so awesome. I'm really looking forward to getting a portable vape!

Just read through this thread, and I am really excited for this. Disappointed we're still about a month away, but I guess patience is a virtue for a reason!

IMO, if you can waitt, i would wait until the Ascent is released and depending on how well it works/ how good the reviews are, I would go with that. I was interested in the pax as well but I dont wanna oay 250$ for a unit i have to constantly clean/keep clean in order to function. (Unless theyve fixed this issue, which i assume they have not)

From what I understood about the smell/mystery taste, it was the insulation used inside the unit. I have read about vaporizers at times until I couldn't see straight, maybe that was another vaporizer all together. Everyone can call me Deez, a long time ago I went by Trojanhunter, because of my ability with computers and the fact that I chased a lot of women :p, but then shortly after, cox communication allowed me to get away with deez.nuts@cox.net. As you can see, D33z got shortened out and stuck.
 
D33z,
Hey Davinci, you are not impressing us with your animated computer graphics. Stop wasting time with CGI, and let us see some videos of an actual Ascent already. If you claim it will be available in March, then surely you have a fully working version by now, right?

I think DV did the first time. The rest I bought after release so don't know.

DV is great for forum presence and we're appreciative of that marketing video (WICKED music BTW). He's obviously super busy and promised us an actual real time vid with vapour clouds, and I 100% believe he will....just give him some time.

I agree vape4life. DV has always treated us well. It is months from release and they will do it when they are ready and not before. I don't want the product before it is ready either.

So when exactly did you acquire Organicix LLC? I wasn't aware that you were DV's boss. I also wasn't aware that you spoke for me, or for any of the people who have expressed admiration for the video.

We're proud here at FC that a number of manufacturers and large vendors participate actively. We try to provide an environment that encourages more of that sort of thing, and posts like yours don't help. If they're pestered with obnoxious demands—and yours was obnoxious—they'll just stop visiting. You could have expressed your desire for a video in much nicer terms but you chose not to. My advice is to adjust your attitude and tone before posting again.

Speak for yourself. The product is not on the market yet and I am very interested in seeing the artist's renderings of the design.

Hey listen, I have got on the case of more than a few manufacturers here, and I've been pretty hostile when I have, but in this case, I don't see anything that DiVinci has done to warrant the ire that has been displayed here.

For me, I am impressed with Davinci's pre-release press. These are called teasers and as part of a marketing campaign, they make perfect sense.

While I would love to see some graphics of the internals, DaVinci sure as hell doesn't OWE it to us.
