If it's o ly 20.ucks you can't go wro g either way. If it's authentic it's a great price. If it's a clone, it's a normal price. Take what you can get if it's that hard to get. I wouldn't worry about clone bs authentic

I agree, that If it is a clone and it's such a nice one that we can not tell the difference it's worth the $20

I can not tell one way or another.
To me it looks like a very nice RDA.
Some of the clones weren't actually fake but the clones were made extra by the same factory so they are just as good as the authentic.
some were marked as clones but were real.
These RDA's have a very strange history.


Did the person you are getting it from mention where they got it from?

Yes, a male says he bought for $ 50, and I will send the pictures to the store to confirm the sale

If it’s a 25 than it’s a clone. If it’s a 24 than it could be legit

either way if it is a clone than it’s a good one.
for 20 bucks I would buy it.

And the China Authentics have those clamps too.

But they’re made in China, and their spare parts are made in China, and the “Authentic” China site sold Goons are pretty much the real deal.

For $20 grab it, looks to be in great shape for its age, especially the screws, they’re generally the first thing to go bad

I have all the Goons and all authentic, but only in brass, stainless and copper. That looks like an og 24, but I don't know if the serial number was painted like that on the authentics or not because, like I say, none of mine are coated.

@~Don~ you have a black og 24 right?

Yeah, it’s different.

Why I mentioned it was the China Authentic, and not the same as the “Authentic” from 528vapes...

The only difference I saw was the clamps like I mentioned

I recently purchased a Goon here. Turned out to be clone as none of my "Goon style" 810 drip tips will fit. It is a great vape even though I am disappointed it turned out to be a clone.

Goon was one of the most widely cloned atties ever and they were not all created equal
