Worked out to be about $240 AUD that was with $50 shipping! - factory second standard grey with slight ding on base or body (gotta love the strong Aussie dollar). I have a tracking number and it seems to have stalled at San Francisco on 27th Mar. I guessed that it would be a couple of weeks, but thought that as it took only two days to get to San Fran - it might be showing up as in the country by now.
I'm not entirely convinced that the USPS tracking system is totally up to date, and it may even arrive before being shown as such on the website.
It's not a big deal as yet - I just want it so baaaaaaaaaadddddddddddd!
Thanks for the heads-up though. I will certainly be using Australian Vaporisers for my replacements, but that deal for the 240V Australian plug version SSV was too good to miss - I am a big one for function over form, so a second is not a huge issue for me. I got it from the 7th Floor Ebay site.
PS: I just ordered an EHLE 250ml pipe and diffuser package from EDIT, so I guess even if I have to wait another couple of weeks, it should eventually be worth it. I just find myself wading so deep with this vape thing - I'd better like it with all the money I have spent. My days of combustion are over, have liver issues so had to give up the grog and my wife is being a really, really, really good sport!
