Am I just over worried?

Postby TheStraubulous » Tue Feb 07, 2012 3:42 am

Hello fellow vapors. I ordered a Lavatube Sunday which will be here Wednesday (tomorrow). I got a Silver one with a 7ml Chrome TT and a pack of mega clearos. Now, I don't even have it yet and I'm worried. I've been reading the forums a lot lately and noticed some others posting in the Lavatube forums about the Silver LT's have button sticking problems as well as "dents" or "scratches". Now I'm not saying they are all like that and it probably is just a small minority but I always think that "what if that happens to me?".

So I guess I'm just asking for the most part am I just freaking myself out for no reason? I've had everything from the Volcano on up. So I'm familiar with Volcano and have used only them and have even gotten others to buy from Volcano as well. I just want things to be perfect lol

My last TT cart got clogged really fast and I was unable to use it more than 2 weeks. So I just always think the worst. Anyways, any info would be appreciated. Thanks guys and gals.

Worrying doesn't help...if it shows up damaged, than go from there. but hopefully it won't :)

My silver one didn't have any cosmetic flaws. The button did stick a little if you pressed it sideways. But that was completely gone after a couple of weeks.

some of the button sticking was due to the old batteries we had as well, the new nipple topped ones dont seem to be causing the issue. There is the one in a thousand unit that might have a sticky button but it tend to work its self out after a week or so of use. plus we did mention it to the factory and they said they looked into it and should not be happening anymore. I think you are worrying for no reason. Everything will be fine.

My Silver one did show up with a few scuff marks in the paint. put you can only really see them in the right light at just the right angle. It was not any fault of Volcano either. It was nicely wrapped in bubble wrap in side the padded envelope. But by the looks of the package, they beat the crap out of it.

Also keep in mind that you bought a silver LT and not a black one... I tend to buy more silver stuff because when the paint scratches, it just leaves bare metal which blends in to the silver finish nicely... I have an Inferno that was from the first run, with big gouges out of the coating, but you can barely tell, since it's silver... I ordered a black one, and when I got it, the paint was perfect. And, if you ordered a kit, it will ship inside the case, which will keep it very safe. ;)

And your TT lasting a couple weeks is pretty standard. Especially if you're using a dark or sweet juice... Alot of people only get a week out of the carto in their TT before it get replaced... ;)
