i see that; but, where is the performance enhancement there?
titanium is certainly harder; but, conductivity wise, I'm not seeing where there would be much of an advantage.
I'm just curios to see if I can learn me something

True conductivity issue is where I was going.
But to each is own, I've spent more on stuff. Just wanted to see if there was any real advantage

Titanium is also a piss poor conductor of heat. Maybe the thought behind it would be to keep the heat on top of the deck and in the coils where it does the most good. I'd think the outer threads of the 510 would have enough surface area to compensate for ti poor conductivity though.

Ive seen these titanium goons sell for alot more than he is asking. Its all about supply and demand. They dont make them anymore and you cant find them anywhere. Ive seen someone pay 300 bucks for one. Someone wants it bad enough they will pay.
Yeah seems sketchy. He only has two posts and became a member here this month. I think his only activity on this forum was this thread. I would be worried. I hope you used goods and services through paypal. Thats sucks man, hope it all works out.
Good man, im glad you went through goods and services. You should have nothing to worry about then. I would give him a couple days, just incase something came up. Then i would file a claim. Something doesnt seem right to me. I hope im wrong.
Speaking from experience, you're far better off to just file a claim, especially since he "disappeared".... in this day and age, there's no reason for it other than to scam someone. I was buying and selling gear the day my kid was born, sitting in the hospital holding my fresh baby.

File now..Paypal will try to contact him, if they cant they will award you the money back providing he has it in the bank account used...Unfortunately some people open accounts then close them just as fast after taking out the money..Hopefully that's not the case for you personally...Hope you get your money back or item soon.

Good deal dude!
Do what the others said and file the claim asap.
As far as I'm concerned, he's already shown it's not worth it.

I'm a case like this, I would give him a deadline to get you the tracking number .... As in 9am. If he shipped it, than he should have it in his email, or if he went to the USPS, his pocket.
When I ship something, I get the tracking to the buyer ASAP, usually when I pay for it. Sometimes that means before I leave the post office. Other times before it's actually left my apartment. Either way, it's still fishy to me; and has been from the start.

I totally agree. I dont see why it would take him until tomm. to get the shipping to him. He messaged him back, its as easy as typing the tracking in the message. Something doesnt seem right. I feel like he is stalling.
I just checked the last time he was on this forum. He was active today around 6 pm. He obviously read this thread and seen that he is caught. So he is stalling. What are the chances he has not been on VU but the day he comes on and reads this thread he messages you that he shipped it.
SOMETHING IS FISHY. I hope im wrong. But doesnt seem like i am....

I've seen it happen. But I've also seen it come to pass that the seller was being honest.
I guess it comes down to a gamble for you at this point, and if it's worth it to you.

If this item was for me I would have filed the claim the day after he went silent, but its for a good friend who owns a vape shop and really wants the titanium goon. Ive even contacted 528 and they said they will not be making anymore titaniums.

Especially a used one at that....
Wanted a titanium one to stash really badly when they came out but couldn't cough up the dough at the time

IDK it's weird he hasn't responded here. I hope you get the right item, but who knows what will arrive. make sure you have time to file a claim just in case a clone arrives or something.
