I'm still waiting for the adapter package with the 18mm-to-whip and a cloud-buddy replica.
I don't remember any package from vapefiend taking more than 5 days to deliver, this will be the first one.
Maybe because of the immigration crisis delaying borders, but I don't think it would affect this package, probably just random delay.
The cloudbuddy is probably a replica, because it's even cheaper than on vapexhale.com, and the photo looks slightly different. The ninety degree bridge between the two intakes seem to be thinner than the original cloudbuddy. I am sligthly worried that it couldn't hold a heavy vape in that joint. That could be a problem if I had a piece with the female joint too close to a can so tall that the EVO wouldn't fit even into the extended straight end of the cloudbuddy. And conneticting two inverted vapes, which is not possible anyways even with the original, you would need at least 2 of them to connect two inverted evos. But I can connect the second vape via a silicone whip and that shouldn't put too much weight on that bridge.
Also all of my vapexhale water tools (hydrabase bomb, hydracirc 2.0 and vertigotree) have got several aesthetic imperfections/flaws.
My hydrabase is slightly crooked everywhere and the male joint is off-center and has got some glass bubbles and some slits are unevenly spaced (but that is located on the bottom of the barrel, so it doesn't matter)
My hydracirc 2.0 also got some glass bubbles and unevenly spaced slits and it wobbles when it stands without a hydrafoot.
The vertigotree has got a bit of rought glass finish on the perc/mouthpiece seal, its arms are sligthy crooked on the bottom (below slits) and its got the same crack-like circular line where arms meet the dome. It's just an imperfect seal on the glass, not a crack and I think the case being discussed here lately could be the same thing.
All of them are premium vapexhale pieces, they work flawlessly, just have these visual flaws. I think the current prices after the recent permadiscount matches the quality of these pieces better. As said, you have to expect these visual flaws on most glass unless you are paying many hundred for a premium brand. And even those can have few flaws.
