haha for real

in fact its gotten much worse since vaping

whoooooops

 

[Raf007]

They sure are addictive .

Last nite I woke up in the middle of the night being impatient and excited about receiving theLSV Asap...if thats is not a dangerous addiction...

 

[DevoTheStrange]

I believe I am sitting somewhere around $1950 give or take a few 20's

I don't think it's a hobby at all until we get into the other aspects that go strictly with the fucking of combustion.
I've invested $290 in the actual vaporizers.(Q and MFLB). I'm still using the free plastic grinder.
I've spent about $60 so far on Everclear 151 that I would never have bought without the hobby.
Plus, all that cool glass, customizing and modifications for collecting and reclaiming, I never cared about that when combustion was fucking me.

I guess all I'm saying, is that the hobby itself isn't that expensive compared to, for instance, musical instruments. Even being an average music fan can cost more in a year or two than some of the most expensive and elaborate glass setups I see listed.

I LOLed when I saw this...

I think most of my expenses are on combustion condoms. (For when I am fucking combustion) LOL

 

[The Budget Gourmet]

Combustion condoms...
I think there's a joke in there somewhere about bag vapes.

I think this is the cheapest hobby I've entered when compared with cars, fish keeping, fishing, clubbing, travelling, eating...

Thousands. Outside of the educational benefit, it's mostly been a waste.

I spend more on craft beer, though. I'm up to like 100 a month and over in some cases, and I'm not a heavy or problem drinking by any means - I just like obscure stuff which tends to be more expensive. At least with beer there's a serious food-value thing going on which is hard to justify with vaping.

 

[Nycdeisel]

I spent a lot more on smoking, but probably around 1000 bucks for vaping

 

[purplek]

Sovereignty Stemline: 250
I-Vapor: 260 with 5 cartridges
MFLB: 100
Da Buddha Vaporizer: 80
Titanium Curve: 60
Broke two wands: 40
Sharpstone Grinder: 25

815 total. Can't put a price on the medical benefits! Love my vape toys

 

[OhTheAgony]

I've only been vaping since December last year, let's see what I can come up with:

Blemished SSV including custom fees etc: 190,-
Spare parts (tubing, extra whip and heater cover, screens): 50,-
500ml bend neck Ehle with ice notches&diffuser downstem: 60,-
Arizer Solo (incl FC discount): 177,-
250ml Ehle with diffuser downstem: 45,-
Vapobowl, bulb vape: 15,-

Comes to a total of: 537,-



But I've sold my SSV with extra's and the 500ml Ehle for 190,- so I'm in it for 347,- atm.

Still a bit more then I thought to be honest, prices are in Euro's btw.
