Anyone interested in a Vapor Shark rDNA30?

WilliamC83 · Nov 1, 2014

SOLD!

I'm seriously considering selling my Vapor Shark rDNA30 (Black). Used for about 2 months now but its had a shark skin on since day one & I take VERY GOOD care of my devices. Its in EXCELLENT condition, easily 9/10.
I also put a piece of clear vinyl J-Wrap (from a kayfun wrap I had) on the display screen the next day I got it, so even the screen is in practically new condition & now its protected.
There are no scratches around the 510 at all, the threads are perfect, buttery smooth & the gold plated pin looks brand new. Also, no juice has ever gotten into the 510 connection.
There are however, a few VERY SMALL, almost unnoticeable imprints from the circle pattern on the bottom of my Nautilus tank. Again, they are NOT scratches, just minor imprints & you have to look close to even notice it. The device itself operates perfectly, never had a misfire or issue with performance at all, it vapes fantastic. I have noticed an occasional "Week Battery" & "Check Battery" error, however Ive heard from several people that that's a common DNA30 error message. Its never bothered me in the slightest & you'll know when your battery is truly week or needs to be checked because the battery indicator on the screen will dip down when you fire it, in addition to the error messages.
I also upgraded from the stock VTC4 it came with to a VTC5 on the 5th day. Ive only used the VTC4 for 2 other cycles, its practically new & I will include it with the rDNA. It will also come with the black Shark Skin as well as the retail box & its actually still under warranty. I won't actually be selling it for about 2 weeks, waiting on another mod but I would like to know if anyone is interested & what you think is a fair price. I can post some better pics upon request & I will do so when I actually sell it, until then let me know if your interested.
Thanks for your time, take care & VAPE ON!

EDIT: I forgot to mention that it will also come with the stock micro USB charging cable. I was thinking $130 Shipped CONUS, does that seem fair?

Price?

Lighty269 · Nov 1, 2014

How much?

WilliamC83 · Nov 1, 2014

Well I'm not really sure, that's why I asked what you think is a fair price. I was thinking maybe $130 Shipped CONUS, does that seem fair?

FYI: I updated my original post to include the stock micro USB charging cable.

Does $140 sound fair?

Well can you at least tell me what you would consider to be a fair price? That was basically the whole point of this thread, to find out who's interested & what is a fair price. Even if your not interested in buying I would appreciate your opinion regarding a reasonable asking price? Thanks.

To be honest sounds to much to me, can get a vaporshark DNA30 with a Nautilus tank, skin and a bottle of juice with full warrenty for $170 and your not including the Nautilus or juice, you may sell it, but not enough discount over a brand new one with more things to me.

Thank you Nailz, that's exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for. So then what would be a fair price? $120? $100?

$120 is a good starting point I think, if no one buys, then can lower if you wanted, want to be able to move a bit if just sitting there and really want to get rid of it

Lighty269 · Nov 1, 2014

I was interested but then I decided to purchase a new device and some RTA's.

Your Price seems fair

WilliamC83 · Nov 1, 2014

Well with the money I have saved now I'm seriously considering getting the rDNA40, it just really peeves me that they released it so soon after the rDNA30. If I would have know the DNA40 was coming out I would have just waited for that, I almost feel a little hoodwinked about it. I really like the temperature control feature of the DNA40, however I just don't know what to think about the nickle wire that's required to use it, Ive heard very mixed things about it. The extra 10W is nice to have but the reverse batt protection, magnetic battery door & especially the built in wireless charging are features that REALLY interest me.
I honestly just want to get enough for my rDNA30 to cover or come close to covering the upcoming Kayfun V4 that I'm anxiously awaiting, which I guesstimate will around the $140 range, maybe?

So $120 for a VERY LIGHTLY used rDNA30 ANYONE?????

KKen · Nov 2, 2014

$120 for a good condition rDNA is a pretty good deal IMHO. Would buy if I was still into regulated mods.

Why don't you entertain trades as well? Probably get more mileage that way given that the $$ you are going to get for the Vaporshark is going right back into vape gear anyway

I traded my rDNA a while back and got a really nice deal. Was a mod and topper that I still use today, which is saying a lot since I normally go through gear rather quickly.

The money for the rDNA30 is going towards the upcoming Kayfun V4, either that or a Squape-R but I have a feeling Svoemesto is going to raise the bar yet again with the V4 design, at least I'm hopeful anyway.
There was a used Vapor Shark DNA30 (1300mAh internal Li-Po version) on eBay that sold for $169 about a week ago. It was used one month, in very good condition & came with wireless charger kit, shark skin & unopened 30ml bottle of juice, so I guess it was more of a value than my rDNA30 & shark skin. Again, as long as I get more or less what I need for the Kayfun V4 I'll be happy.

KKen · Nov 2, 2014

Selling originals or premium goods on VU is a bit more difficult, at least for me it has been. The bulk of my higher end items have always sold or traded much quicker on Calivapers. I had the rDNA posted for trade here, but only got one offer in the same time I got 4-5 very good ones over there.

As Fuzzy Bruce said, that link is to the Vapor Shark DNA30 with the internal 1300mAh Li-Po battery, mine is the rDNA30 with replaceable 18650 & comes with Shark Skin & a practically new VTC4. I have dropped my asking price to $130 Shipped CONUS. Too rich for your blood, then make an offer?

You already stated you would take $120.00, now you went up to $130.00. Make up your mind already, you may scare someone away!

Damn, I completely forgot I posted that, you got me dead to rights Lighty269. The reason I went up to $130 is because I realized that shipping, tracking & $150 insurance is going to be about $8-$10 CONUS. I really want to get at least $120 in the bank for it but I digress.
I pride myself on being a man of honesty & integrity, I would NEVER knowingly try to hoodwink my fellow vapers. Given my financial situation I really need to get as much as I can for it but not at the risk of my reputation, especially over $10. Yes it turns out I did in fact state $120, you got me there, however in my defense I didn't actually state that included free shipping. So with that said, if asked $120 + Shipping would that, ethically, be wrong?

Lighty269 · Nov 2, 2014

You go and get whatever you can for it.

I just wish I knew how much the Kayfun V4 is going to be. Ive heard guesstimates of around $140 but the 3.1 ES Delta was $207 from Svoemesto & $175 from other vendors, so I'm not really sure what to expect for their new V4. Hopefully its under $150 but we shall see.

ciro · Nov 3, 2014

I think all authentic DNA devices are way overpriced. I can get a 100 watts for a $100.00. That being said , i just lost my only regulated device which was a hana clone. so i'm looking for a 30 watt or higher device. You're not going to like my offer ! I can offer $65.00 right now and i'll throw in a copper hades clone if you like. I'm not low balling but thats all my budget can allow for right now.

I completely understand being on a budget, TRUST ME, however $65 is WAY TOO LOW of an offer for this device, especially in the condition its in, I mean its practically new. Ive already had 2 offers $100 & one of them said they could go a bit higher, so I will have to respectfully pass on your offer but thanks.

Zooms3 · Nov 4, 2014

If you still have this Friday I'll snag it for 120

VapedCrusader · Nov 4, 2014

man I really need some extra vape money again.. I would have snagged this for 120$ in a heart beat..

oh the woes of getting a new house

Best way to figure out a good price for something in my opinion is to look at completed listings on eBay, you can see which ones sold and which ones didn't and get a feel for the right price that sells.

WilliamC83 · Nov 9, 2014

Zooms3 said:

Yes, I still have it. When I do sell it I will post in this thread that its been sold, I WON'T LEAVE ANYONE HANGING!!

cobalt327 said:

So what exactly are you trying to say? Ive had SEVERAL offers already, only reason its not already sold it is because I'm waiting on another mod. So if your implying that I'm either asking for too much or that there's no demand for this device, you are very much mistaken.

cobalt327 · Nov 9, 2014

I'm either asking for too much or that there's no demand

Those are your words- not mine. So it would appear that you have those concerns. I simply said you can bet he still has it. And you do. End of story.

Zooms3 · Nov 9, 2014

I ended up ordering a new one because I thought you went awol. I too was confused on what he was trying to say, how am I to know if you sold it to someone via private message or locally?

cobalt327 · Nov 9, 2014

This thread should be a sticky for how NOT to run a classified ad!!!

The best way to deal with this is to take it to a private conversation. That way you have the undivided attention of the seller and you can negotiate directly w/o the background noise of an open forum thread.

Zooms3 · Nov 9, 2014

That's funny considering the only background noise on this thread is you.

cobalt327 · Nov 10, 2014

Doesn't change the fact that going PM is the better way to do this especially when you seem so confused as to what is going on:

(he sobs) ...I thought you went awol. I too was confused... how am I to know if you sold it to someone via private message or locally?

As you can see, I CLEARLY stated (post #39) that I would post in this thread if/when I sell it. Not only have I been waiting on another mod before I can sell this one (which Ive already mentioned) but Ive been having some health problems lately & actually ended up going to the hospital for it. So needless to say this wasn't exactly a priority, please forgive me. I mentioned SEVERAL times that I wasn't ready to sell atm but when I am ready I WILL CLEARLY POST IT IN THIS THREAD! It should have been blatantly obvious in my OP that if you were looking to buy immediately this wasn't the sale for you. If your not happy with the way I've conducted this thread then by all means take your business elsewhere. I never made any promises or guarantees of any kind to anyone, so please spare me your sentiments.

I recently got shipment notification on the mod I'm waiting for, so I should have it any day now. As soon as I receive it I will post in this thread that I'm ready to sell. I want $120 + actual shipping cost (tracking & $150 insurance is approx. $8-$10 CONUS). I could raffle this on FB & get more than I would here, however there are a select few people who inquired or PM'd me offers & were very respectful & PATIENT with me. I appreciate that & feel obligated to give those people the first chance. The person who gave me the best offer will get first dibs, if they pass then it will go to the next best offer & so on & so forth. I apologize for any misunderstandings & any lack of attention to this thread. Ive been having a really rough time both physically & emotionally the past few weeks so I REALLY appreciate those who were polite, respectful & patient with me.

WilliamC83 · Nov 21, 2014

I'm FINALLY ready to sell the rDNA30. I apologize for the delays & lack of attention to this thread, Ive been dealing with a LOT of stuff lately & been having a really hard time. Thanks to everyone who was patient with me & considerate to my situation, I really appreciate it.
Considering the rDNA30 is still in EXCELLENT condition (will post more pics tomorrow), comes with retail box, charging cable & black shark skin, I want $130 Shipped CONUS (includes tracking & $150 insurance). Let me know if your interested.

OICUVAPE12 · Nov 23, 2014

I will trade you a White Provari Mini 2.5 with a Twin Brothers extension and 2 AW 18650's and 3 AW 18350 Batteries?

dave/jayce · Nov 23, 2014

@WilliamC83, i wish you the best and hope all works out with your currently situation. Health issues are the most stressful thing to deal with. As far as the sale of your mod well we both know thats not gonna be a problem. Again wish you the best....

Anyone interested in a Vapor Shark rDNA30?
