If you only look at the price tag when buying a disposable vape, you're probably paying double for the same number of puffs.
Most Australian vapers have hit this wall: you buy a cheaper device to save money, then the battery dies before the e-liquid runs out. Or you buy a bigger-capacity device, only to find the cost per puff doesn't actually work out cheaper. And then there's the two-to-three-week wait for international shipping — by the time it arrives, the "saving money" impulse has turned into "never again."
MateVape is built around exactly those two pain points: local Australian warehouse dispatch + genuine discount pricing.
Cost Per Puff: The Only Price That Actually Matters
With disposable vapes, "cheap" and "expensive" aren't decided by the price tag. A 6,000-puff device at A$25 works out to about A$0.004 per puff. A 40,000-puff device at A$60 works out to just A$0.0015 per puff. The second one costs more than double at the checkout, but its real cost of use is roughly one-third.
Here are some of MateVape's current standouts, ranked from lowest to highest cost per puff:
PICCO STAR 40K
- Puffs: 40,000

The pattern is clear: the more puffs, the cheaper each puff becomes. If you vape 200–300 puffs a day — roughly the equivalent of half a pack to a pack of cigarettes — a single 40,000-puff PICCO STAR can last three to four months. That works out to under A$20 a month on devices.
Cheap Disposable Vapes in Australia Compared
PICCO STAR 40K
The lowest cost per puff on this list. At A$60 for 40,000 puffs, it's built for people who know their daily intake and don't want to think about reordering every few weeks. One device, months of use.
BULUBULU 15000
A$40 for 15,000 puffs. A strong middle-ground option if you want big capacity but aren't ready to commit to a 40K device. Good flavour range.
JNR Falcon 16000
A$40 for 16,000 puffs. Slightly better value than the BULUBULU on paper, and a favourite for flavour consistency among daily users.
Gunnpod Evo 15000
A$35 for 15,000 puffs. The cheapest entry point into the 15K range. A low-risk way to test a new brand.
Picco Peak 6000
A$25 for 6,000 puffs. The highest cost per puff here, but the lowest upfront spend. Suited to light users or as a backup device.
Insta Bar Woo Yeah 10000
A$35 for 10,000 puffs. A middle option for medium users who care more about flavour variety than maximising puff count.
How MateVape Keeps Vape Prices Low in Australia
Low prices don't have to mean low quality — as long as you know where the savings come from.
Local Australian warehouse
MateVape holds stock in an Australian warehouse. Every order is picked, packed, and dispatched locally via Australia Post — no international transit, no customs delays, no cross-border surcharges. Shipping and clearance costs on cross-border vape orders typically add 15%–25% to the final price. That cost simply doesn't exist here.
Authorised supply chain
MateVape is an authorised partner of SWIX and sources directly through authorised channels. There's no multi-layer distributor markup. A bigger share of what you pay goes to the product itself.
No hidden checkout fees
No "processing fee" or "packaging fee" appears at the final step. The price you see is the price you pay.
Who Gets the Best Value from Bulk Vapes?
If you vape more than half a pack a day, the PICCO STAR 40K or BULUBULU 15000 is your best value. At 250 puffs a day, a 40,000-puff device lasts 160 days. Compare that to the cost of cigarettes over the same period at the same frequency — the device cost is a fraction of it.
If you're upgrading from a cheap small device, the jump from Picco Peak 6000 (A$25) to Gunnpod Evo 15000 (A$35) is only A$10, but you get 2.5x the puffs and nearly halve your cost per puff.
If you're loyal to a specific flavour but don't want to stockpile, the Insta Bar Woo Yeah 10000 at A$35 is a low-risk entry point — if it's not for you, you haven't lost much.
Fast Australia-Wide Delivery
All orders over A$40 qualify for free standard shipping. Orders are dispatched from Melbourne and typically arrive within 2–3 days.
