I was about to come on here and rant and Chris' new article on the home page is a good place to start.

Is it to much to ask for vendors to just tell us what it is? I spend a lot of time looking at the plethora of suppliers and it bothers me when they just list a 510 kit as a "510 kit", and attys that are listed at "510 atty" or something deceptive live "replacement atty for Joye 510" or "replacement atty for Joye eGo" when it's not a Joye atty. I want to know what I'm buying and I will not buy from a vendor that doesn't clearly state who the manufacturer is. And what's up with the eGo knock-offs? If you want to sell the EM Riva, fine, but call it what it is, don't try to be deceptive about it. Some vendors call it an eGo even though it's not a Joye eGo. Some, while not calling it an eGo, twist words to try to make you think it's a eGo, or better than an eGo. One vendor has one listed and in parenthesis says (aka: Riva/eGo). That's BS. It's either a Riva or an eGo. In this case I'm pretty sure it was an EM Riva, but don't try to deceive me! And now there's the T-Rex. I'm still trying to find out if it's Joye or not.
So I ask, it is to much to just call it what it is? I know there are some marketing gimmicks, but Ecigs can be confusing enough, especially for noobies, so why not just tell us what it is (who's the manufacturer)! Am I being too picky wanting to know if something is made by Joye? I don't think so.
