You all know I'm one of the biggest fanboys on this thread, but I can't say I agree with this. People should put their issues out there so other potential buyers can see them. Fortunately, none have had to go through what I and some very early buyers did when heaters didn't materialize for a couple months. I don't want to beat that dead horse again, and it is all there for the reading if you want to go back that far in the thread. The reason I bring it up here is that I (and several others I know of since then) are still here and touting the nano for being the incredible vape it is. Just the same, those who come on here and whine "you don't know what I've been through", "put yourself in my shoes" and the like need to knock it off. And, there have been a few. I guess I'd even give them a pass and not grumble about it if it looked like they had any idea of what they were talking about!
Different people respond to different issues in different ways. The situation may not be their fault (even though they should have known about it if only skimming random pages here and there through the thread or actually using the search function), but that response and the way anyone feels about it is on them - not on Epic or any other manufacturer or vendor. Expectations (especially in the face of repeated contrary reports) should be realistic. To expect something different is what baffles me. Didn't Einstein say something about this?
That's not to say your nano definitely won't be in your mailbox in a couple days and everything is perfect. Seems that is what happens more often than not these days. But when dealing with Epic (or most small companies found on the internet IME), you gotta chill a little and let things go. If you don't - that's on you, and nobody but you.
Still, personal experiences SHOULD be put out here. Anyone buying should have all the knowledge they can. This is probably the single greatest factor of what makes FC so fucking amazing! Info on vapes, manufacturers, vendors and the whole experience are what people are looking for - and can easily find if they take a couple minutes. The repetition and ongoing whining is a whole different thing tho. Glad that was addressed and hopefully won't go on so much if it happens in the future.
But, I admittedly didn't step up with my own responsibility to report it and don't know if others did. I'll take the hit on that - and will hopefully remember next time!
Don't sweat the negative shit. There will always be haters, or people who think they were wronged because expectations weren't realistic. You can find more about all of this in the last several pages (and throughout the thread for that matter), but the reality is this is a very small company with only 2 people. If things are as they have been, one assists in customer responses and shipping. The other does everything else from procuring materials, to turning the wood, to putting them together and testing and probably a whole bunch of different other shit we couldn't come up with even if we spent days thinking about it!
Truth is, it may take a week or more to get your nano depending on factors we're not privy to (nor should we be of most of them IMO). There may be a mixup with your accessories. I'm sure there are other things that could be a problem, too. But, for the most part it seems instances of any of this are becoming more rare all the time. And, while Andy can be a pain in the ass to get ahold of and get a response from sometimes - he makes it all good and I'd say at least 95% of people who have problems are happier than anything at the end of the day.
IMO - and yes I've said it before and probably will again - I'd much rather see this and get the incredible vape you can for less than $200, than see changes that increase the price or lessen the quality of the vape. It ain't perfect, but it is EPIC!
Dude.... the solo experience is so far behind this it is actually kind of hard to compare. Check my post a few pages back with the bullet points for the best I could do. The nano (probably any log vape) is so much of a better experience. Simply put - if you like your solo, you will love - and I mean LOVE - the nano. Have a solo I use regularly when a/c power isn't close at hand. It works, but every time I do I'm thinking "shit.. there is an outlet right over there (in that picnic pavilion, under those steps, wherever). I shoulda just brought the nano!". I even picked up a power inverter for the car to use tailgating or when camping. For me to even THINK about going to the car to vape while camping, and walking away from the fire while doing it, ought to tell you a lot.
Thanks
@Snappo ! Laughed so hard I got beer up my nose. Note to self... sip first, then scroll. Double IPA's taste much better on the tongue than in the sinus!
