It's been a busy few weeks for GG and for myself, leaving me little time to visit ECF and the GG forum. Well I'm all caught up and sharing what I know, saving you the effort of reading through all the threads.
Twins
First up it seems we have a very rare case of GG twins. The following two Ithaka's appeared in the GG Pictures thread, both bearing the same serial number. One belongs to Itshak and the other to Mddally.
Nobody knows how this happened and I think it's the first time this has occured. Imeo has promised to rectify the mistake with some sort of extra engravings which is good of him.
New premises for E-smokeguru
Vassilils has shut ESG until the 17th of January to give him time to set up a new unit in Athens. It's good to see that in a country plagued with financial problems in recent times that ESG are still able to grow. The shop in Salaminas will remain open for those lucky enough to visit.
Pre-Orders
The pre-orders for Penelope's and Tilemahos were put on hold by Imeo due to problems at the machine shop. Expected release date for new constructions is around the 15th of February. There has been a lot of discussion on the new parts, all of which can be seen at the following link.
Tilemahos-22mm-23mm
As for spares, Imeo says that parts are getting made and there will be parts for all GG constructions and that the other GG sellers will have enough parts too. Brass parts may be a problem as Imeo says he has had trouble sourcing it. I get the feeling though that the way parts and products are produced will be changing and maybe the new ESG premises are part of that. We will have to wait and see.
VIR
Still no update on VIR. Imeo had said that it would be ready soon after Christmas and we are now nearly half way through January. If Imeo's prediction was right we can't be too far from a release. However, as much as I would like to see VIR available I understand the delay. VIR will be a big change in the type of product Golden Greek offers so it makes sense for Imeo to ensure he gets everything right first time.
Prices
Finally a new thread has appeared with Imeo asking for thoughts and ideas on prices. In the thread Imeo states his intention of competing with China on price. This is a tall order as China is cheaper on just about every vaping product you can buy. The quality is questionable but prices are definitely lower in the far east. It's an interesting thread and well worth checking out, hit the link below to follow developments.
