Products and suppliers reported as unreliable

I'm sorry you got a bad starter kit, but I have to disagree with you about HealthCabin dot net 's hardware. I have bought several starter kits (Joye 510 x3, Joye Stick x2) and about 100 attys, and about 30 batteries, 4 pass throughs, 2 pccs, and other hardware and I have NEVER not ONCE gotten a bad or defective product.

That can't be all luck. Every company ships the occasional deffective. I'm sorry you received one of them. But I'll still stand behind HC and continue to use them often.

I am sold on Aquavapor. They have great customer service and the prices for the -901 starter kits with TWO atomizers are the lowest I've seen.

Greensmoke product wise was a let down, customer service very good.

Johnson Creek overall good.

Hello;
Nice Forum. I should have found this site before I bought one. I went to a cigarette outlet to get some Zippo fluid and behind the counter was a pack of Health e-Cigarette, $35.00, and bought it. I did not see any other name on the pack, but after reading DonDaBoomVape's Sticky, it looks like it is the DealExtreme SKU 27981. Could have bought 3 from their site. It has been 5 days and it is still working. I notice I cannot drag it like an analog. I have to wait about 2-3 minutes between each hit to get good vapor. I will most likely try other brands before I update this...

Yes I agree dano_y2k2 nice Forum! I felt the same way a few years back when I bought a scooter over the web, I was so excited to get it I did no research on it what-so-ever.I later found a great forum to help me get some needed help with my China made Honda clone scooter.

I don't ever want to go through that again and would have rather. LOL

I strolled upon a youtube vid of an E-Cig and became very interested and it gave a price point at arround $80.

I saw and tried the Smoke 51 at my local Mall, and fell in love, just to come home and find its way overpriced and not very liked in general.

I have ordered the Blu Cig to start off my journey.

Thanks

I'm new to this site and thinking of vaping. But something ponders me a lot. If any of you great vapers can make me understand then I will be thrill. Everybody talks of buying this and that kits, batteries, fluids, atomizers. In the long run is it really cheaper than regular cigarette or analog? I smoke 3 to 4 sticks of analog a day. So like a pack a week ($23). Will I save any money switching to e-cig considering all the mishaps I have been reading on this site? How long does a starter kit takes to finish considering I’m going to be spending approximately $50? Will it last for more than 3 weeks? I know there are lots of people out there with same concerns. All I read are people who smoked 1, 2, 3 and more packs of analog a day. For those of us that don't smoke that much, do we have any hope with e-cig and how and where(to buy) do we start?

Well, vappy, most of us who DID smoke that much were worried about our health in addition to the cost. Not to mention the inconvenience of having to go outside to smoke, which I did even in my own home. I couldn't begin to calculate the energy savings in no longer opening and closing a door two dozen times a day. And hey, no more standing on the back porch in a bathrobe with a towel on my head, in the driving rain, trying to smoke an analog, throw it in the nasty "butt-mug," etc. So for a lot of us it's not just about the cost, and some of us have actually elevated it to a kind of hobby.

Each of us has to make his own choice. If you're okay with sucking burnt material into your lungs, then maybe smoking is for you. All I know is that for decades, I forbade doctors to even bring up the subject of quitting with me -- my mind was made up, and if it ever changed, I'd let them know. Then I discovered e-cigs on March 14th this year. Never even wanted to go back. So I'm saving money and the environment at the same time.

I know this is an 'Avoid/Beware' forum but I am in the situation of looking for a UK wholesale supplier.

For some reason this seems to be harder than I imagined - surely people would welcome business in this climate !!

Could anybody point me in a direction of a supplier who would be able to give me a price list for UK spec JOYE 510's and parts - I also need to be able to mix juices on demand.

Admin - Please move this to an appropriate thread should there be one, after using the 'Search' function I could not find an appropriate place to post this.

I don't know much about Joye, since I've never used them, but for mixing liquids I like Liquid Xpress. Always been very satisfied with their products and service.

Cheers,

has anyone heard of smoke 51 or smoke anywhere?....I hadn't read the terms yet. when I did I was really unhappy they will be taking 89.00 out of my account then 29.00 each month . i imediately wrote to them and tried to concel but i guess it didn't work because the money came out of my account .

Smoke51 and Smoke Anywhere are both owned by a company that has several names! I ordered it over the phone from a radio ad and I was on the road. I should have known better than to give them my CCN. Sure enough, it was $9.95 as promised in the radio ad, then $89 and $29. I called and called and called and could not get beyond the boilerplate recording, but it did give emails: cancel@smoke51.com, return@smoke51.com,

I sent to both--no reply. I disputed the charges on my credit card and sent the bank copies of my email attempts to cancel this scam. The bank credited my account but sent a letter saying the 'seller' has a right to dispute my dispute.

Actually, I would not have objected if the darn thing worked! One puff is all I could get. Recharge battery, change cartridges, followed instructions--one puff and then nothing.

I finally got an address and sent the thing back with a note to fix it.
