Every November we watch the same thing happen. Prices fall, everyone says they will wait, and then everybody tries to spend the same money inside the same 72 hours. So this year we opened our Early Black Friday sale three weeks early, and we will say it plainly: it runs from November 5 to November 11 at 23:59 HKT, and we are not holding anything back for later in the month.

Two things decide what you actually pay this week. The tiered discount is automatic. The coupon is the part you enter yourself. They stack, which means the checkout total is always lower than the number on the product page - and usually lower by more than people expect.

Two ways to save, and they stack.

1. What comes off automatically

Five thresholds, no code, applied at checkout. Spend is counted on the merchandise subtotal, excluding shipping.

$55  >  $3 off

$70  >  $5 off

$85  >  $8 off

$90  >  $9 off

$100  >  $10 off

Four of those five thresholds sit exactly on one of our free-shipping lines, so most customers get paid twice: once in cash, once in delivery. The odd one out is the $70 step, which exists because a large share of carts land between $55 and $85 and never get a reason to move.

2. Then you add one coupon on top

New customers: 10% off orders from $35, issued automatically when you register, with no cap.

Code BF15: $15 off orders over $150.

Code EDC10: $10 off EDC and accessory orders over $90.

One coupon per order, and it always applies on top of the automatic tier. If you registered recently you already hold the 10%, so on a large cart that one is often worth more than either code - which is why the comparison table below uses whichever coupon saves the most, not whichever one we happen to be promoting.

3. The tier and the free-shipping line are the same number

Free shipping from $55: UK, Korea, Japan, Russia

Free shipping from $85: Germany

Free shipping from $90: France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Austria, Hungary, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Ireland

Free shipping from $100: US, Canada, Singapore, Belgium, Netherlands, Czechia, Sweden, Romania

Duties, customs clearance and handling are already inside the price you see. Nothing is added at checkout, and there is nothing to pay at the door. Country list and delivery times: shipping and tracking.

4. What a real cart looks like: atomizers and mods

Most of our customers buy rebuildables and the hardware around them, so this is where the tiers do the most work. A single RTA usually lands between $24 and $44, which means one atomizer alone rarely clears $55. Two atomizers, or an atomizer plus cotton and wire, clears it comfortably - and that is exactly where the $3 to $8 tiers start paying out.

Rebuildable atomizers:

Rekavape Kayfun Prime Style 22mm RTA 2ml - Silver  $23.99  [view]  - the low-airflow MTL benchmark; 2ml, 22mm

Rekavape BY-KA V.11 Style 23mm MTL RTA Standard Set 5ml  $32.99  [view]  - 5ml, 3 air pins, standard set

Authentic Hellvape Dead Rabbit Mini RTA 3.5ml - Matte Black  $32.99  [view]  - top-to-bottom airflow, mesh-friendly

SXK Ghost Ring Style 316SS 22mm RTA 4ml - Silver  $34.50  [view]  - 4ml, 316SS, ring airflow

Titanium Ti Flash 4.5S+ Style 22mm RTA Full Kit - Silver  $43.99  [view]  - 13 air pins, titanium version

Authentic GDMODS Ignis SS316 22mm MTL DTL RDTA Standard Kit - Silver  $81.00  [view]  - MTL and DTL in one atomizer

Authentic Thunder Cloud Bonza Pro RDA 25mm - Green LE  $34.98  [view]  - 25mm dual-coil RDA

Mods and kits:

Authentic YiHi SXmini MQ Class Mod - Gunmetal  $55.99  [view]  - SXmini chip, compact single-18650

Authentic ThunderHead Creations THC Blaze AIO 18650 Mod Kit  $55.98  [view]  - AIO kit, includes tank and bridge

Authentic MECHVAPE Paramour V2 100W 18650/21700 SBS Box Mod  $68.98  [view]  - side-by-side, 100W, 21700 ready

415 Stealth Rikimaru Style DNA60C SBS 18650 Box Mod - PEI  $116.99  [view]  - DNA60C board, PEI body

Worked examples. A Kayfun Prime style RTA at $23.99 plus a BY-KA V.11 at $32.99 comes to $56.98: the $3 tier lands, and to the UK, Korea, Japan or Russia the shipping is free as well - final $53.98. If you are a new customer, the 10% on that same cart is $5.70, so use the welcome coupon and take $51.28 instead.

The Bonza Pro RDA at $34.98 plus a 415 Rikimaru DNA60C mod at $116.99 is $151.97. That crosses $150, so BF15 applies: $10 tier + $15 code = $25 off, and free shipping to the US and Canada is already in play at $100. Final $126.97.

A single THC Blaze AIO kit at $55.98 sits just over the $55 line, so it collects $3 with no extra effort. Add a 30ml bottle of wire and cotton and you are closer to $70, where the tier doubles to $5.

One honest note: the 10% welcome coupon has no cap, so above roughly $150 it beats BF15. If you already used your welcome coupon, BF15 is your best fixed value in the $150-199 range. We would rather spell that out than let you find out at checkout.

5. Where the automatic tiers stop being enough: EDC10

Some carts never reach the numbers above. A pocket tool, a keyring, a small screwdriver set - that is $10 to $40 of gear, and no tier is going to help it. EDC10 exists for exactly that: $10 off any EDC or accessory order over $90. It is a niche coupon by design, because EDC is a smaller part of what we sell, but for the customers who do carry this stuff the maths is good.

The tools, at current prices:

18-in-1 EDC card tool  $2.59  [view]

5-in-1 mini pliers keychain  $1.99  [view]

3-in-1 fishing line cutter and pliers  $6.59  [view]

9-in-1 keychain utility knife  $8.99  [view]

13-in-1 pliers multitool  $11.59  [view]

66-in-1 precision screwdriver set  $13.59  [view]

29-in-1 multitool bracelet  $17.99  [view]

Worked example. The 66-in-1 screwdriver set ($13.59) + 13-in-1 pliers multitool ($11.59) + 29-in-1 bracelet ($17.99) + 9-in-1 utility knife ($8.99) + 3-in-1 fishing pliers ($6.59) + 18-in-1 card tool ($2.59) = $61.34. Add the 5-in-1 keychain pliers ($1.99) and a second card tool as a gift and you are still short of $90 - EDC carts climb slowly. That is why the coupon threshold sits at $90 and not $55: it is meant for people restocking a drawer, a toolbox or a set of gifts, not for one impulse buy.

When it does land: a $92.91 cart takes $9 tier + $10 EDC10 = $19 off, and if your country is on the $90 free-shipping line the delivery goes to zero as well. On an EDC cart under about $100, EDC10 usually beats the 10% welcome coupon; above that, the 10% wins and you should use it.

6. What a few typical carts look like

$55 cart  >  $3 tier + $5.50 welcome 10% = $8.50 off, plus free shipping to the UK, Korea, Japan and Russia

$90 cart  >  $9 tier + $10 EDC10 = $19 off, plus free shipping to eleven countries

$100 cart  >  $10 tier + $10 EDC10 = $20 off, plus free shipping to the US and Canada

$150 cart  >  $10 tier + $15 BF15 = $25 off

$200 cart  >  $10 tier + $20 welcome 10% = $30 off

The $200 row is the one worth reading twice. Because the welcome coupon has no cap, the fixed-value codes stop being the best option up there. That is fine by us - take the bigger discount and keep the difference.

7. Useful pages while you are building the cart

Browse the full atomizer collection or the mod collection, check what is in the live Special Offer section (those items get the automatic tier but are not eligible for coupons), and read customer reviews before you commit to a device - it is the fastest way to see how something held up in other people's hands.

If you want the permanent ways to save rather than this week's offers - the welcome coupon, VIP levels, EU customs and how the free-shipping structure works - we wrote that up separately in this guide. The mechanics of coupon codes are in how to get discount coupons, and VIP tiers are explained here.

8. When it ends

Everything above stops at 23:59 HKT on November 11. There will be no extension, and no final-final email on the 12th - we have done that before and it is a bad habit that makes every future deadline meaningless. If you are waiting for a better moment, this window is the one to use.

9. The questions we get every time

Can I use two coupons in one order? No. One coupon per order, always applied on top of the automatic tier.

Does the threshold count shipping? No. Merchandise subtotal only - shipping is calculated after the tiers are applied.

Is EDC10 better than the 10% welcome coupon? Under about $100, EDC10 usually wins. Above that, the uncapped 10% does. Take whichever saves more.

Are Special Offer items included? They receive the automatic tier discount, but coupons are not valid on Special Offer and clearance items.

My country is not on the free-shipping list. Shipping is calculated at checkout and still includes duties, customs clearance and handling - nothing extra to pay on arrival.

What if the sale ends while my cart is open? The discounts are calculated at checkout, not when the cart was built.
