his one of the owner right? if its true they are selling fake but sell ori price .. this is unacceptable .. somemore switch with juice only .. he should investigate this either his shop purposely selling this type of product or his staff there doing it themself ..

somemore .. to compensate u with juice is not right ..  he should give u more

Yes but i got my Gf to call cause you know la, if guy call sure not as lenient. When he answer, my gf ask are you the boss or in charge of vapor hub he terus jam and like ahhhh no im only a worker. Here already you know red flag. Then he try to tell my gf you izzit bought the black one(trying to blame all black come this way) but luckily mine was stainless steel so there he kena caught again. Then he also like nothing to say, then he started to blame GeekVape sent them bad batch since a lot of customers complain. At last he say cannot refund money but can change to other thing. I wanted to change to limitless RDA but i was so scared he give me clone again so i changed for pancake man only la. That also the fkin worker jack up the price and sold me for RM140. Market selling 135. I just paid extra RM20(since the tank was RM120) and ciao la. Will never ever go back to this dodgy ass place again.

If im not mistaken, the boss John Ooi was there at the shop. Can anyone confirm with me how he looks like because i saw a chinese guy very short hair, thin and quite old looking uncle. The reason why i feel its him is because the worker told us to call John, but i left my phone in my car so we went down to sit in the car and call. Terus his phone off. Before that i call in the evening can get through so easily. So i suspect this is the person and he quickly switched off his phone when we went down to call him. I called 15 times and went to voice mail. Finally i got through Felex and that is how i managed to only exchange it for ejuice and still no refund.

Post comment in their facebook site. If they care about the reputation, refund would be much hassle free.

I really malas to use my personal account create trouble la bro. As long i changed for an ejuice i like i'm fine la. But i want to warn others here since i know lowyat vaping community quite big and hopefully you all will pass this message around.

QUOTE(markypcs @ Jun 8 2016, 10:43 AM)
Same thing happened to me bro, bought mine at the Sunway branch. Going back there tonight to change for a new set, gonna make sure it's not a clone
*
Bro no use because they don't carry originals at all for the Avocado, only fakes that they sell as authentic.. The guy there opened another pack for me also same, inside the rubber all like kena bite by rat and he started using scissors the cut off and make it nice but still looked like shit. There is no way they can fix that bad finishing. I went Vape Tech and bought bro, the authetic one really the best ever purchase i've mad. Finishing chun, threading chun, and flavor is phenomenal man.

By the way, i did PM you as i did not take a picture of the packaging and if you still have your tank, could you please take pics of it and maybe more pics of the tank because i got in touch with GeekVape and they have agreed to write an article warning people about Vapor Hub but they also want pictures of the packaging.

QUOTE(andyng38 @ Jun 8 2016, 11:18 AM)
Sorry to read of how vapor hub treated u. They should replace the atty with an original one or refund u in full, not just replace it with juice.

I've bought from Hyper Vape b4...5 or 6 tanks and a few mods...all original. No hesitation to recommend that shop. Yes parking is a PITA in that area. If you're double-parked outside sg wang, just phone them and they'll bring what u want to yr car...very good service.
Mind to share where u got the chip from, and price? I wanna do a transplant too smile.gif

Wah they got this kind of service? Thanks for letting me know bro, will visit them for my next purchase definitely smile.gif

Yesterday i asked them on FB if its ori and you can see today he still reply me saying its ori even after my whole ordeal yesterday. Obviously you can see the boss got no guilt and will cheat anyone as long there is profit.

By the way John Ooi did confirm with me its ori on the phone itself before i bought yesterday if anyone was wondering.

I've got nothing against clones as when i started off and there was only the kayfun, ithaka which costs an arm and a leg, i used clones as well. What i hate is this scumbags selling clones and claiming its ori plus at ori price.

Just want to warn you guys out there about Vapor Hub. I've seen people recommending this place and i myself have been a loyal customer especially when wanting to buying tanks.

I've heard stories about them selling clones and passing it off as authentic but brushed it off until i was a victim recently. They sold me the Avocado 24 Geekvape RDTA and assured me it was authentic. As soon as i got home and opened the tank, i realized it was a fake. Bad workman ship, package did not include frosted glass(only 2 clear glasses), insulator around the build post torn, eliquid fill hole cover so hard to remove(by right can be remove easily with your finger nails) and many other signs. I bought an authentic one from a vape shop at Kota Damansara the same night and am so happy with it.

Tried going back to get a refund and they did not want to give me a refund. After about 1 hour of back and forth, finally allowed me to change for e-liquid equivalent to the same price.

I will stay clear of this shop right now and suggest you guys do the same as well. Dishonest business like these deserve the hammer!

dang thats an extremely bad case you got there lol

my fren has a avocado clone silver and it did came with a frosted and a clear glass haha

he got it for like 40bucks lol

Agree with you. Personally I don't mind clones as well, but tell the truth up front la right?

This one is knowingly selling clones = claim its ori + put ori price. That is downright cheating.

I thought this John Ooi is a stand-up guy in business and can be trusted before? I think a lot of people knew him from the car-boot era right?

Guess business too bad liao, need to find other ways to earn extra profit, or business too good too big doesn't care about customers anymore or self-reputation.

Thanks for the heads-up bro, will avoid buying from this shop. Unless this John Ooi fella step up and clear his name up, make some fb post or some shit to clear things up but I doubt he will do so.

Wow, so this infamous vapor hub is using such low tactic? Always wanted to visit their outlet since the price is so competitive but I'm not really staying that near

Anyone has any idea where to buy this 0.4ohm coil for aspire Plato?

Fake from Vapor Hub
My pictures from the tank they gave me:
user posted image
Here you can see the rubber part(i think its call an insulator) sticking out under the build post and also at the back you can see the top cover with the engraving Avocado which on the V its half faded and grayish . The authentic one is not supposed to be even colored.
Here is the picture of the SS version engraving from RIP TRIPPERS review.
user posted image
The engraving follows the color of the base which is either silver or black as shown below in the authentic black version i bought.
user posted image

Here is the picture another forum member markypcs who was cheated as well just sent me a picture of his clone black version from Vapor Hub.
user posted image
As you can see his engraving is grayish. Also in the picture above you can see the tank is with a clear glass. All the authentic ones come fitted with frosted glass and the clear glass tank is where the extra accessories are at.

The easiest give away is if you look at the first picture, you see the screw holding the fill hole hinge on the clone is gold and the original ones(SS or Black) comes with silver screws only as shown below:

Here is a picture showing the color of my authentic avocado black fill hinge screw.
user posted image
Also in the picture above you can agak agak see the insulator and how good the workmanship is on the authentic one.

In the picture below you can see a stone chip in between two of the o rings due to poor workmanship of this clone.
user posted image
Also can you spot a screw missing on the top post? The screw basically just fell off when i opened the tank brand new from the box and was sitting on the build deck.

Other giveaways of the clone:
- The biggest dead giveaway is the clone, you are able to pull the most upper part(the part that controls the air hole) out. I tried pull the top part out of my authentic one and from looking underneath, i can confidently say that the top and middle parts are joined together and there is no way to pull it out. In case you don't get what i mean, the picture below is an illustration of the part i was able to pull apart.
user posted image
- Both tanks were clear instead of one being frosted.
- The ceramic block inside(if you decide to use single coil) is supposed to have 2 o-rings on both its legs but the clone came with only 1 o-ring on one leg for the block. The spare one also had only one o-ring.
- Very hard to pull out the liquid hole hinge cover.
- In between the liquid hole hinge and the fill hole, there is suppose to be a plastic cover which the clone does not have.
- The packaging part where on the front it writes Geek Vape, easy to build etc. That paper on the authentic one is really thin like an a4 paper. The fake one from Vapor Hub was hard like a higher gsm paper.


I hope this helps you distinguish between the clone and original one.

I like how hypervape doing business, If its clone, its clone , if its authentic, no bullshit. Never doubted them since 2014 until now.
