All those items are sold on street corners or through Chinese websites and not accepted in their respected industries, or on forums promoting their industries...Big difference. The vape world is no different than the bootleg DVD sellers on street corners in DC or NYC...This website wouldn't even exist if it weren't for sponsorship or promotion of counterfeit goods...
Dude the lady asked nicely now please stop.

The truth hurts, I guess... I know some would like to ignore it, but that's why vaping is simply a fringe hobby...

The thread is about a counterfeit item. Counterfeiting is widely accepted in the vape world- in B&Ms, vape shops, this forum and online retailers. Is it really surprising someone bought a counterfeit item? Just because you and the Op don't like the truth doesn't make it go away. I'm glad people get taken by counterfeit items. Perhaps once enough do, vapers will stop supporting shops which sell them...
Perhaps cat threads are more appropriate for some, rather than have an actual discussion...

For the last time STOP ARGUEING PLEASE. Second off. Usually counterfits are sold with the name "clone" written on them at half the price.......

is there a block button for certain people then? I have a zero tolerance for trolls and assholes. I have an anxiety disorder so i just try to tune people like that out..........im new to the forum so idk if there is a way to block people or how to do it if there was. Otherwise I wouldn't say anything, Id just do it. I dont like to create public drama. You know? :/ I feel shitty even having to ask

guys please make a new thread if you want to argue ok? I want to delete this one but dont know how

I would keep this thread open for informational purposes. This problem might appear again, and someone looking for a solution might find it usefull. I always recommend going back to the shop first with product in hand and explain the problem. Call me lucky, but I have yet to find a dishonest vape store. most of them want return visits. You'd be surprised at how nice the community is as a whole. If they sold it as authentic, they probably were cheated themselves and will work with you.

good luck, and vape on.

Yea vaperjedi thats exactly what happened. the owners were completely dumbfounded when I revieled what I had bought was a counterfit. They provded me with some free vape gear as condolence and ensured that they would check throughly next time they ordered materials for their shop.

You cannot. On VU: Once it's said, it's said. You can ask the mods to lock it, tho.

As for arguing... well, people will be people. VU is kind of like the wild, wild west--within limits. Recommend you read the forum rules, if you have not done so already.

TL;DR: We're all adults. Which includes the ability not to act like them. There's no hand-holding, here.

Calling it a 'clone' doesn't make it right; just makes those buying them feel better about supporting counterfeiting...Perhaps you only like circle jerks where everyone agrees with everyone else. A discussion isn't an argument...
