Anyone interested? Mod collectors?

[DAY-VAPE]

Old school Empire mod / limited edition stand.

Old school/perfect condition Grip mod.

If this is something you might want to add to your collection... Let me know and make me a reasonable offer.

Serious inquiries only would be great.
I don't have time to respond to anything other than that.

Thanks!

Very nice stuff you have there.

FWIW, some infos for folks who don't recognize those mods:

Sweet Vapes GRIP mod (a bottom feeder without a window, the bottle's push-button is on the side)

The Empire Mod...a classic that needs little intro.

Whoa! I haven't seen a Grip in forever! Love it. GLWYS.

It would probably help prospective buyers if you stated prices you would want for each of these mods, stating if they are firm or subject to negotiation, then go from there @DAY-VAPE - R

Both nice specimens indeed, what are you looking to get for the empire?

 

[DAY-VAPE]

The way I look at it... If someone is even at all interested and wanting either of them then they would message me and make an offer. Since it's kind of hard to put a value on them this is the most reasonable option... They are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. My idea of what it's worth could differ greatly from someone else. So I just feel like this is fair to myself and the buyer... Because they won't give more than they are comfortable giving. It's no big deal if they don't sell... As I'm not terribly attached to them . ; )

I'll start it off then @DAY-VAPE :

50USD for the Empire and 55USD for the Grip Mod.

That's what I think it's worth given it's been over 2 years since both of these mods were released.

Let the offers commence!

 

[CaFF]

Man, I think you are gonna get taken.

They'll buy it cheap and put it up on mod-traders FB group for $200-300 each. Hell, the K-100 clone (that isn't even close) sells for $35-45.

Maybe you just don't think much about the value of collectible things, but others will and they surely won't tell you how much it is. People on the Internet are wolves. ;-)

So, old = shitty? That's ridiculous as they are collectible mods. Classics even. You won't see them again because they are not made except for the Grip and that is over $200 new.

People don't sell those often.

You asked me, and I told ya what I thought they were worth. I wouldn't stoop to offering such a pittance as $50 for a special edition black Empire with the stand. I remember when those were made...people went insane and they sold out in a day.

Just because I could offer that lowball of a price, doesn't mean I should. If you sell those that cheap, I should buy them since I had first dibs.

I just wouldn't have the cash until after my birthday on the 31st....so there's that.

 

[TowerOfVape]

...and that's how you get people talkin' @CaFF

Do you honestly think that's how much I think they're worth? Pff...so I guess you want to offer the buyer 200 each! All you bro!

Nope, I didn't say you actually thought that.

I've wanted an Empire since early 2012, but they are nearly impossible to find and I can't afford 'em. Vactic had a red one up for sale recently.
The last time they made a batch in 2013, they were sold out in less than a day at $140 each. That style he has wasn't one of them either. I remember that one distinctly...only made a few of those combos I think?

The Empire is one of the OG mechanicals and a fantastic bit of kit even today. It's also a work of art.

I know it's NOMB, but I'd hate to see such a rare and beautiful thing go cheap to someone who'd just flip it on some site for cash. Ya know?

If people want realistic offers, they'll post realistic asking prices. Pretty simple. No price?! Expect just about anything.

 

[VH fan]

I have no idea what they are worth and i bet i could never come close to paying anything close to what their worth , i own an MVP and a Pro Tank , thats whats been with me for a long time, been out of work for over two years so i am just going to throw out my best and please don't take this as an insult because it is not my intention .

I will top TOV's offer by $5.00 for the grip , yes an astonishing $60.00 , now where's that rock i need to crawl under.

Ya I know that, but I'm not new to the classies either. ;-)

Sounds like he might be, that's all. IMHO, Just because someone doesn't know an object's worth, doesn't imply they should be taken for a ride.

 

[DAY-VAPE]

Yeah. No thanks. SOME of you guys actually know what they are worth. (CaFF). Or at least in the same fucking ball park as i am. And as I said... It's not a big deal one way or another to me... I just know that some people are die hard collectors... And I'm not one of those guys. Hey, if nobody wants em for a fair and realistic price, then that's fine. Really... I'm not late on my car payment or anything.

So stop beating around the bush @DAY-VAPE: Post what you want for them and you may actually get someone biting! State if it's firm or negotiable and go from there! Come on now!

Obviously you aren't the guy that wants them anyway. Or you wouldn't make a big deal about it. Would it make you happy if I just took the post down? LOL.

Actually maybe he IS the guy who wants them but just doesn't want to offer you $50.00 more than what you want for them.
I am going to go out on a limb here and say Rich is very much interested in one of them.

 

[shananigan]

I am on love with that grip mod! Bottom feeders are my favorite!

I am interested @5150sick and willing to pay a fair price for these. I've been waiting on a price for a few weeks now but no response. I'm assuming it's off the market for the time-being unless he says otherwise. Locking thread in 24 hours if there is no response. @DAY-VAPE if possible before then, please put actual prices you think they are worth and we can go from there. Many thanks
