Ordering from overseas - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

What are your experiences with ordering from abroad? I'm thinking of buying a pen style, and am having a tough time deciding who to order from.

With current exchange rates, I've noticed it's generally cheaper to buy in euros. But someone mentioned to me in another post (can't remember where) that it is best to make orders from China for the best delivery time. I was quite interested in David Yang's gear (despite the controversy), but it seems he's distributing via the US now.

Another reason I'm not too sure about buying from the US is that I believe they have a different voltage over there, and I'm not sure if that could result in exploding chargers or anything if I just plug it into an adapter. Anyone more knowledgeable on that matter?

So I'm a little confused as to which route to go down.

Mate, the best place for aussie to buy from over seas would be from Wanye eBay Store - elecitronic cigarette: e-cigarette, ruyan, e-cigar You get it with in 4 to 5 days! And he backs it up! I had a charger die and sent sent a new one to me with out any probs. So 4 days from the email to him a reg post slip came and it was here! Other stuff I have gotten from him has taken 5 days to get here. Just tell him dodomark sent you and he will make sure you are happy, he would any way with out saying my name, but he trust me and my mates. So if any thing dies he takes your word and resends new parts. I real top ebay seller. And no I dont get kick backs nor am I doing any buying in for our soon to open biss. I just like the way this guy works. All the stuff he sends that has free post is sent via registered post so you know you are getting it!

Oh and also YES Dave is a great guy to deal with two

but starting out I would go with Wanye and buy new atts and batts from him as yours dies later on down the track. Yes I do and will be dealing with Dave in the biss side, just so you all know where I stand and why etc.

Their shipping seems a little pricey, but I think it would be worth it if they're the only place that sells the usb battery for the 801.

Di · 11-29-2008, 08:29 AM

it is the only one I have seen so far from a reliable source.
and they work too.
on my puter and my fag in a bag setup.

if you are not desperate wait a few weeks
see if someone offers something else.

I can order you one with my order in 2 weeks if you want mate? I will just ask for a $1 to post it on to you + the price they carge me for it, if you want mate? I dont think a USB batt will change my shipping cost, as it is now a 12kg order! LOL

Hopefully getting my 901b this coming week from Puresmoker & wondering if there's a charger that takes multiple 901 batteries,one that charges 3 or 4 at a time..been looking around but don't think they exist.
