Aussie Vapors!!

[MrDismal]

Wow, a lot of people from Tassie! Weird, but good to hear.
KiteStyle, I did enjoy the fresh non-polluted air in Tassie but living there bored me to near suicide so I had to move away (Melbourne) And plus the cold weather doesn't help either.

I'm also waiting on a $180 order from the UK... HOPEFULLY by the end of next week I should see it in my hands.

Djsat, I think the best approach would be just telling your friends and fam naturally, that you found a "healthier" smoking alternative to replace cigarettes but not the nicotine (minus all the harmful chemicals).
What e-cigs have you got on order and the best e-juice would have to safely start someone on a tobacco-like juice if they're fresh off smoking.
When I found out about PV's I looked at all these flavours and thought... this cannot be something that will replace a tobacco burnt flavour. (crazy flavours like red bull, coffee, chocolate, vanilla, caramel ect ect ect ect.) So I just went with tobacco and more tobacco like Marlboro (Good flavour too!)
Anyway, at the end of the day just make sure you get a good product and keep the juices up!
Here's a great tutorial to answer a lot of questions you have but it's MASSIVE so you might have to skip a lot to get to the point. Good luck.

Bloody posties eh? Nice time for a strike. Weirdly our package got thru to Brissie in 7 days, but all the ones thru Melb seem held up. The local post office in Benalla said 'don't hold your breath for any parcels till mid next week'. Grrrr. My sister is so ready to quit! Hope you guys get yours OK.

Dj, find what annoys them about smoking and use that to get their interest maybe? The very first thing that caught my attention was about people in the UK smoking e-cigs in clubs and pubs. That sounded cool. Sounds like you got a test model, that should get some interest too. Not sure what you ordered but you can get zero nicotine cartridges and juice. Depending on where you ordered from you may have 1-2 free 0mg carts in your starter kit. You would be perfectly fine to use this with no addictive effects. If you don't have any 0mg carts (clearly labelled) then you need to buy some 0mg juice for yourself if you want to try it. You can get most of the flavours in 0mg. Otherwise, just keep asking questions here.

Gizmo.. don't get me started on Kitesurfing.. best sport ever! been doing it 8 years and I still get butterflies for hours before a session when the wind's up.

Well,,,no delivery today plus heard on the radio posties go on strike again from midnight

[MrDismal]

Ohhhhh that sucks..
Well I'm still hoping mine comes mid week... at least.

[gizmo]

Decided to check my shipping number again from HG.
Arrival at delivery office 21st 06.19
Attempted delivery....... 21st 08.34

There was no ticket in my box so I rang the P.O..sure enough it was sitting there waiting for pick up..one down 2 too go

My sister got both her parcels in Benalla today.. happy girl She's loving the 510 with 555 juice.

I got to bris today and opened my 2nd package: juices, 12v car chargers, 510 passthru, and assorted spare attys/battys etc. All good except I've ordered an auto 510 batt by mistake.. will have to see how that goes. The blue colour's pretty nice anyway.

Some juice had leaked in transit with my order from China, had to wash all the bottles and my hands. Then the dropper came off with the lid on a 30ml bottle, got 24mg juice all over my hands. Had to wash them again, for longer.

1st impressions, the 24mg Marlboro isn't sweet like the MLB freebies - is the most like a real ciggie I've tried. Bit full on for everyday use for me, but probly great for any time an analog might be desired - like with a bourbon or two.

The other surprise was the 18mg watermelon, picked by my wife. Not sweet like menthol or strawberry, it's actually pretty nice.

So now we've got 5 days of camping, will have 3 x fully charged 905 batts (900 Ma, 1 1/2 days each maybe?) and a 12v car charger for 510s and a 12v USB adapter with a USB 510 charger, and if all else fails a USB passthru for the 510. So I reckon we'll be OK

No probs at the airport, we vaped the 510s with coffee outside the tiger terminal, then stuck them in checked luggage. Too scared to carry on in case security had a problem and took them.

My biggest problem now is that I've accidentally ordered a bunch of 30ml bottles at 24mg instead of 18, and I noticed too late, the order had been dispatched. I think it's cos when you use the back button on the browser it defaults back to 24mg. So now I'm trying to get the green light from the wife for order number four (in 2-3 weeks!) to buy all the same things at 11mg so I can mix them 50:50. This is costing waaay more than we ever spent smoking!!! Hopefully we'll be set for 6 months after all this.

Anyway fellas that's my update. Glad to hear you got yours finally Gizmo.

Hi everyone....
I'm Stateside, but thought I could offer a bit of help here.
One of my good friends is "Di" at Eastmall. She is also an Aussie. That having been said, she is one of the so called "experts of the e-cig". If you were to get hold of her here on this forum in the Eastmall sub-forum, she might be able to hook you all up with the latest in info from down under.

Cheers!!!

Cripes! your ecig junkies thats a good stock you have,just let em know about the leak & they'll replace whats lost with the next order,flue cured is my favorite,that & vanilla & licorice,but flue cured takes the cake for now.

Have fun camping,sounds good.

Get some food grade glycerine and thin it out a bit.

Thanks MrDismal for your help. I ordered the DSE801, DSE901 and the DSE108. I asked for the nicotine but don't know what flavours/strengths they were. Is there any restictions on importing nicotine products? Is there a limit (like tobacco cigs) to how much u can bring in to Australia?
