It looks like you can get a used Volcano Classic on Ebay for around $300 or so. It would be the same price as the V Tower Extreme, new.

I currently have a Hotbox (whip style) which I like a lot. I watched "Super High Me" and kept seeing the guy with the Volcano balloons. Looks awesome. So, the V Tower Extreme also looks VERY nice.

What would you do? Buy a used Volcano or the new V Tower Extreme?

neither, id just get the hotbox whip adapter to use with a water pipe. its a new dimension of clean no throat irritation hits that lasts longer than just vaping at normal temps. i'm sure vapor brothers whip adapter pieces work with your hotbox whip.

*but if i HAD to pick one it would be the volcano if it still had a warranty, if not then the v tower extreme.

Well, that was an estimate. Let me phrase it another way. I can spend up to $300, what should I buy? A new V Tower Extreme or a used Volcano Classic? I want the best, cleanest hits possible as well as durability and dependability.

You can always see if its still covered by warranty and unopened though

thats some bullshit. you can send it down to Los Angeles and they'll have it fixed and back to you in 1 week.

ive also dropped it three times in the past year and it still works perfectly

They never break, that's why the dealers stock so many parts for them.

I have the Vtower and it is great. It does bags or whip I love the whip as I can turn it on in the morning and when ever I need a hit it's ready, then just sits there till needed again. 3 speed fan talk about a shotgun, more like a fire hose. Mine has a cool blue light around the bottom that glows. Came with a pile of stuff and extra everything. Had it about 18 months and really like it.

Volcano you can buy better but you can't spend more. LMAO (here comes the volcano army)

With the wip after a while you can get some kickass honey oil from the glass fitting on the top.

I mean like a big drop, that breaks something inside. And yeah S&B in CA will do repairs but you would have to pay the money, and it could be a lot if something were broken.

So my thought was in the end you could pay more for a broken unit, that you already dropped $300 on.




I just buy things new when I can afford the piece of mind.
