Vape Bargains Thread

@Faiyaz Cheulkar this a lovely thread also the vape den has some things really cheap it’s sad to see people trying to extract the most they can put this industry not everyone can afford everything they want coz some shops are making a killing with they stuff overpriced some guys I know couldn’t afford vaping I used to give out my juices so they stay away from stinkys however they ended up selling what little they had and went to stinkys coz vaping became too expensive
 
Bossvape is the place I said was even cheaper than the prices I got. It seems as if they now have more stock. If you need batteries I doubt that you will find them at a better price, although it would be great to be proven wrong. :)

And Imraan is such a nice guy, allthough they online shop, he is only about 10min from me, so if I need urgently something I just order online and he lets me come pick up quickly within a hour or so normally

@Yuvir Punwasi It's sad when someone smokes simply because it's so much cheaper than vaping. Someone in my town came to see me to discuss vaping but decided against it because of financial reasons.

@Hooked i may not be a millionaire however if someone is in need I would help out where I can especially getting people off the stinkys it dirty it’s stinky and harmful to they health and those around them especially they kids there’s some places here in Durban that has a high mark up I guess part of the reason is they rent however I’d rather buy on a budget there’s many other things I can do with the money that I do save

At first, I thought that I would disagree with your statement that vaping is more expensive than smoking but then I realised that many smokers are buying illegal cigarettes for almost nothing.

Surely if you start quitting and use a pod with DIY juice (your own or from a friend) it would cost you less than smoking? I have only used one pod but the juice consumption seems to be very low.
 
Vaping as a Smoking Cessation Aid (Pod + High Nic Juice) is cheaper than cigarettes (Premium brands)
Vaping as a hobby or lifestyle (vs. smoking) is an costly/expensive luxury

@Puff the Magic Dragon Not everyone has the time or inclination to DIY, particularly when first switching to vaping. Even using commercial juice is a schlepp - in fact, the entire vaping SOP is a schlepp and if it weren't for the fantastic flavours I'm sure I wouldn't have continued.

I think we forget how easy smoking is. Firstly, cigs can be bought anywhere, at any time. Then to smoke, just take a cig out the pack, flick-o'-the-Bic and away you go.

Now vaping. Must pre-plan because mods and juice can't be bought anywhere at any time.
Cart all your gear with you. Mods are heavy (compared to a cigarette) + and extra mod and/or extra batteries + extra juice + extra coil.
Refill tank continually. A messy business sometimes if tank has a small inlet.
Replace coil. Messy business. Prime coil and wait. Irritating business.
Find out that you don't like the flavour which you've just bought. Expensive business.

Crikey! I'm surprised so many people persevere!!!
 
I agree with you @Hooked that the vaper which you described (a hobby Vaper) spends a fortune on gear and carries a ton of equipment. I take two mods, three extra batteries, three attys and juice to work every day. I spend hours making coils and replacing wicks.

My point is that if you only want to give up smoking your total requirement would be two tiny pods and juice. Your only daily effort would be to fill a pod and charge them overnight. You could even get away with one pod device in the beginning. Most vapers don't progress to the hobby stage.

Thats why it all comes down to somebody have to want to stop. If they don't really want to all those things you mentioned will be used as an excuse.
 
Most vapers that I know only have these pen style or bit bigger tube style mods, only one and charge through the day. So its maybe R200 coils a month and another few hundred on juice, not very expensive
 
I quit smoking at once thanks to the Justfog hybrid kit and a bottle of Liqua 18mg green apple. From there on I spent a whole year on the same setup (that I duplicated). In summary around R1.6K hardware and maybe R1.2K in coils and R4.5K (and I’m exaggerating) on ejuice. I used to spend more than R1.2K on stinkies a month at the time. The maths are simple: more than R5k economized in just 12 months.
The second year I bought 2 istick pico clone kits for R800 from a Chinese shop and went on for even more than R5k in economies.
Third year, I discovered RTAs, RDA, the gear hype and started DIYing. I’m very much sure I spent more than R10k on vape gear in the last 12months :eek: and probably another R5K on accessories and ejuice.
That being said, I only feel gratitude for succeeding the war against the stinkies.
 
A buddy of mine told me he gets 25R's in Mitchell's Plain for R70 each. Apparently all of their batteries are dirt cheap. I don't know of the batts are authentic but if I get the name I'll post it
It is true and they are authentic
