    So over the past 3 months or so I haven't bought anything from FT
    I've bought a bit of stuff from UK vendors and Thai vendors though...

    Things I nearly bought but didn't were:

    - Kanger KBOX (if it had been able to regulate more on the wattage then I may have got it)
    - ITaste MPV 3 (not a bad price, a little big, but didn't get it, luckly non of the Thai vendors got them in so that was good for me)
    - IPV 4 Temp mod ( lots of Pre Sales going on, but I kept away from the buy button)
    - KayFun 4 clone (I had one which I hated so sold it to SD, but still really want to try one again, but not yet)

    How about you guys? Things you were tempted to get but didn't.....

    Aspire Atlantis - Went with the Kanger Subtank instead and happy with it. Wont be getting the Atlantis.

    After getting my DNA40 mods and a couple sub-ohm type attys some months ago, there hasn't been much of anything coming on the market to date that looks like it would really represent a nice step up in vaping quality compared to what I already have. A few new items had been purchased that filled-in some gaps but that's about it. Just another item or two yet as nice gap-fillers or replacements for dated ones. I'm just settled-in pretty well at this point on the hardware side. I feel fortunate. :grin:

    I think you all by now know that I have no Paypal account or use Internet shops to buy vapegear, so I only buy from our local vendors with bank transfer. It has also helped me, who also is on a budget, to get my GAS (Gear Acquiring Syndrome) a little under control.

    I was first very tempted to buy the Kbox mod, but realising it's from Kangertech and that I also don't like the jump from 13 watt directly to 20 Watt, I'm happy not to have bought it.

    I was really tempted by the Istick 50 watt for some time, but whenever I had the money our fine vendors did not have it, and when I finally got the change to buy it, I choose the IPV mini II in stead. All my regulated mods where with 18650 batteries, and I just prefer to be able to just pop a new battery in a mod and vape on, instead of having to charge the individual mods with the help of USB connections.

    I'm a very careful, sometimes to careful, so that I think to long before buying some new stuff. Simply because I'm an a budget, and in the start I just bought to much, I really got disappointed with, after some month of use, that I now go to the other extreme sometimes.

    As I'm into rebuildable tanks in the moment I bought a Lemo and a Kaifun V4 from Big. The result is I like them both, but the Kayfun V4 is my number 1. I just regret that i did not buy 2 or 3 at the time Big had them, because now he has them sold out.

    I was very temped to buy the 3D RBA from Big. I choose the big dripper instead, but today I really think that was a bad choice. It looks like the 3D RDA would have been working better. The first month the big dripper worked fine, but the last month or so maybe because of the heat, it's leaking some trough the airholes. The 3D would not leak in the same way, since the tank section in under the building deck.

    Price is Swiss level too. If you're thinking of laying down that sort of dough have a look at the Ubertoot UTA

    Goliath - still searching for a rebuildable tank that i love
    sx mini m class - this just looks awesome, but with the ipv mini II and vaporshark dna 30 I cant justify the expense
    atlantis II - aspire has always been my favorite brand, ever since my first hit of the ce5 many months ago. i went with the arctic instead and am very happy with it.

    those are my top three, if a rich man i would have a vape room that would make pbusardo blush :grin:

    Same as Yourauntbob, if I had money I would probably go ballistic on vape gear.

    So what I missed :
    Still resisting the buy of the IPV mini 2 from Micky
    A temperature control mod with Ni200 wire
    A Goliath tank

    I might get these down the line, not sure about the IPV 2 tho...

    Vapor Flask: squonker edition. Average cost in the mid 300's (usd). For that kind of money, b!tch better paint my house ... or play dvd's ... or both.

    Darth does so like a mod that squonks -- but would be more likely to upgrade the grill with some gold teeth or maybe sport one of them flavo-flav old school big baller clock necklaces before pushing 4 large on another device that only vaporizes ejuice.

    The only thing I've been tempted by and held off is the IPV4 and I've made the right decision after getting the Yihi M class. The only struggle I'm having at the minute is not buying another one :)

    Vaporshark rDNA40 and iStick50.

    I just don't need any hardware now and the feeling of guilt I had after getting the useless Sig150 really got my feet back on earth.

    Another thing I don't but fell in love with is Wut mechanical Series box Mod (thanks @cmbrstefan grrrrr ^^)
