Right. I have been following this thread with some interest. And I've come to the conclusion that I don't give a flying fuck about what's happening with this mod sale. I am quite happy vaping in my own little world with all my mods and drippers and stuff, vaping away quite happily, when suddenly this shit happens. Fuck it folks. Fuck money grabbing vendors. Let them do what they have to do. Don't loose sleep over it. We have some brilliant vendors in our community that would not do such a thing. So just chill out and don't let it mess your heads up.
 
ukecigstore sorry i didn't realise giving to charity means we can be unethical without question! I help fund and volunteer at a youth centre in my hometown, a lot of the guys that turn up smoke weed, i'll remember to bring a few oz's along to sell as they smoke it anyway and it'll make me a lot of money, the club might not even be open if it wasn't for my contributions so its all good, and i'll contribute my 2nd run earnings to charity how about that.

You are flipping. You have taken advantage of your position and the contacts you have to get hold of a rare and limited item and auction it with the reserve at RRP or higher. Flipping. You made it available to the whole world instead of the UK via your website like a decent vendor to ensure you get the most you can. Flipping. You could have put it on your site for £600, £800, whatever, you knew what you were doing when you decided to put it out there via ebay. Flipping. You aint even sold anything else on ebay before! No ebay shop before this item, you made it just for this item. Flipping.

As someone else said, i don't even care about your company, the mod or the money you will make from it, its just the cheek of it, the cheek of what you're doing and the cheek of trying to justify it.

Your post might persuade the fickle you did nothing wrong, but i'm taking the situation for what it is and i certainly will give you zero of my business ever again, nor will those around me. There's plenty of vendors that are charitable and hold meets, competitions and events, and they also don't take advantage of their position or market either, i will choose to stick with them

ukecigstore can you not just remove this item from fleabay. Issue an apology and auction it some other way. Charity auction similar to what @todd does on a regular basis. Just a idea on my part!
 
We can confirm that Vicious Ant have not supplied a RRP for the Variant. Any figures out there are pure speculation. We paid a high cost to receive our supply of these devices. As a business, of course we are looking to turn a profit on items we have paid for.

And still no response as to why an auction was deemed 'the fairest method of selling the mod', as opposed to say pulling names out of a hat and allowing someone to purchase it at a set price... I have NEVER heard of anyone putting something up for auction for any reason other than to make the most money possible from the sale! I've e-bayed a few highly sought after items myself (not vape gear and never with an over-inflated reserve) and can honestly say not once did I pat myself on the back for giving people a fair chance to purchase them, I was too busy counting the pounds as the bids rolled in.

You'd loose a lot less respect if you were just honest about it, instead of trying to pass off greed as a good deed!
