What happened to your old vapes?

My daughter and her family are visiting next week, and I’m gifting her my Pax3 and XMAX V3 Pro. I tried to talk her into taking my OG Mighty and Mighty +, but she thinks they’re too big. I’m pretty sure she’ll change her mind after a while.

A few stick vapes stay in my dresser B3 and M7 and my 2 v3 pro’s do. Used them my first few years of using. And since i got a Venty, Simerell titanium (Buddboss sent me Great Guy!), rogue 2 are sitting out on my stand for rotation. :blush:

I gave one to my favorite budtender, a few to a friend and kept the rest. I get an older one out every once in a while and it is like changing strains of flower with the different type of high.

I have always found that there is a different signature feeling and high with each different delivery system.

That has been pretty much my experience. Even my old DaVinci got charged up and used the other day, even though I’m not a fan of the device, I could feel the difference in the high.

That’s also my experience

I’ve given some away but the success rate is pretty low I feel for having someone completely fuck combustion. Still maybe better to pay-it-forward instead of having them waste away on the shelf :man_shrugging:.

There are some vapes I keep for sentimental reasons and I’ll fire them up once in a while, but the daily rotation of vapes is tighter than it used to be when vaping was new to me. A log vape, a ball vape and a couple of top portables see most of the action now.

well I have a few, my first M and my first custom dynavap (made by me) wood body with a helix tip and I have a sticky brick that are all just on the shelf right now. The dynavap I made will probably stay with me forever but the M will end up in someone’s hands if I can find someone willing to use it. As for the sticky brick I am tempted to collect a few of those because I just love the build quality and how beautiful they are. but I don’t think anything will get much use now that I have a ball vape because it is by far the best thing i’ve ever used in my life
beyond that I gifted a magic flight launch box several years ago
and a few herb atomizers for different concentrate devices I didn’t like much

I am looking forward to skimming down my vaporizer VAS accumulation too ! I have given a few away to folks receptive to switching to vaping, but I have been procrastinating about selling the many leftovers.

Thanks for the ENT exchange tip. Do you have any other thoughts about selling the used vapes online?

That’s awesome! How did you find the MMJ patients?

I still have many patients and keep getting referrals. There are 2 MMJ Doctors in town that immediately recommend Vaporization over smoke, and they hand out my card at each certification. The dispensaries that help with certification also hand out my cards.

Almost every dispensary in town has my card on the counter. Whether they certify or not, they encourage patients that are on a low income program to contact me for free vaporizers. I still receive weekly donations of used units, and vapes that have fallen out of favor, that I can clean up, and provide locally at no cost to Cardholding, Low-Income, Medical Patients that are chronically or terminally ill.

My work had slowed down for a while last year, but with the recent economic troubles, there are more people struggling. Also with the newer increase in medical patients being certified for lower costs, my work and eligible population has increased accordingly.

I accept donations at https://paypal.me/Vaporist

For those folks that have sold vaporizers, where do you list them other ENT exchange? How do you determine pricing?

Members listed them on Fuck combustion in Classified. They were permitted the privilege after a certain number of posts, and with guidelines Classified Guidelines- FC I used to list my collectibles on FC, but now have few collectibles that I am willing to sell.

Individuals sold on Ebay but they no longer allow this.

That’s awesome work, and thanks for doing it.

Thanks! I wonder if there are other sites that would allow vaporizer sales? I’m guessing Facebook marketplace wouldn’t allow it; they exclude sales of anything medical such as blood pressure, monitors, wheelchairs, etc..

You can find some on eBay they generally refer to them as Aroma Therapy devices instead of Vaporizers. They have currently some S&B devices, a lobo etc. I found a Davinci IQ2 new open box listed for an auction starting at 69.69. I placed the opening bid and was the only bidder so received the unit as described for the price of $69.69 plus $7 shipping. You can find some gems there from time to time.

I’m seeing them on FB marketplace. Somebody near me is selling a Solo 2 for $40

I believe @420vapezone wades through FB Marketplace and Craigslist regularly for vapes. Clued me into a Volcano for sale local to me (sold cheap the same day, I missed it.) Not sure on the regulations about such posts.

Mine are part of an extensive collection going back to 2013. I still have my original PAX & Arizer Air, the original model! I have many electric portables, a few desktops and one ball vape. Tried Dynavap years ago didn’t dig it & I hate lighters, no experience with analogs to speak of. But battery operated have & had most if not all.

I have been lucky that as vapes have come out since 2013 If the device tickled my fancy I bought it! Most of these vapes are relegated to display/storage. I have usually 2-3 vapes in rotation. Right now it’s Flaske, TB2 & Frolic. I also do something many don’t, if I think a vape is a winner, I’ll get two(2) in case one needs to go in for service. May not do that with the Flaske $1k is a bit outlandish even for me!
