I've only tried V4L and Cig Techs, except for the colors they seem the same. Many say they are all the same, but I don't know this, only read it. Mine from V4L came in a box, and the others were in blister packs. Hopefully someone can come along and answer your questions. It sounds like a good deal, if I needed supplies I may look into it, but I don't.
Bottom line, you just need to try for yourself and find what works best for you. If you aren't smoking, it's all good!Originally Posted by Hiveous
I did have a look through eastmall's forum but most reviews were in regards to e-juices. Are the juices are an indication on the taste/quality of the cartomizers? As I'm buying them for a few friends who have never used or heard of e-cigs, I wanted to get them cartomizers so they didn't have the inconvenience of refilling. Although I know refilling isn't too hard, I just wanted their first experience to be fuss free.
I have seen the level of customer service provided by V4L and have ordered from them (although I haven't received it yet as it has to travel half way around the world). However, because eastmall is doing a very good sale atm (see quote below) and free shipping for orders over $200, I just wanted to explore this avenue and take advantage of the sale.
NoMorButts4Me- yeah I've noticed that about the packaging too, V4L is blister packs if I'm not mistaken and eastmall's seem to be cardboard boxes (but black).
Actually, V4L cartos come in Black boxes, cartos that I have gotten from other places have come in blister packs and I found them kind of dry and tasteless. Others agree with me, others say they taste no difference so everyone is different. Overall, I have had better luck with the cartos from V4L, plus there is more variety in flavor and nic strength and they are marked with both flavor and nic strength which I prefer. The extra goodies that Steve throws in are also very nice and makes getting an order more fun!
So if anyone has had any experience with cartomizers & juices from various KR808D-1 vendors, I would love to hear what you have to say! I'm not necessarily asking if eastmall's are better or worse than other vendors, just wanted to know they are decent and that you'd recommend buying the carts (if they weren't on sale). I'm particular interested in ordering the menthol from eastmall... or if you have a favourite flavour cart/juice from eastmall then I'd love to hear that too.
JenJen: Firstly, thanks for answering!Also, has your experience with eastmall's carts been dry tasting? Or are you referring to another vendor?
See above, taking into consideration that it is my opinion. Vapor4Life is not the cheapest out there, but not the most expensive either. And the extras they throw in, less expensive shipping, and 10% discount on every order more then balance it out in my mind. I like doing business with someone I can call and talk to and who treats me the way I want to be treated. Plus, if something goes wrong, I know it will be replaced with no hassels, and I don't even have to send it back! He takes you at your word.
Sorry about the long post guys, forgive my ignorance.I'm totally new to the e-cig concept and a non-smoker, so I really don't know what considerations need to be taken to assess flavour or cartomizers.
you also may risk that order getting stuck in customs...I did have a look through eastmall's forum but most reviews were in regards to e-juices.

I understand that taste is very subjective and that this can only really be resolved by actually trying the carts. The only problem is that it can get expensive with international shipping to just try one or two packs at a time to ascertain if they're worth repurchasing.
Needvapor: I had a look at the nhaler website, but I couldn't find any menthol flavours in the 16mg cartomizers? Did I skip over it by accident or do they not have menthols in cartomizer? Or are they curretly out of stock?you also may risk that order getting stuck in customs...

you didn't skip over.. I will get back to you as soon as I find out..
All cartomizers are NOT the same. Everyones taste is different. Some have a peppery taste and dont last very long. The ones Im talking about only come in yellow and do not say what flavor they are. The yellow ones have less juice in them. Thats probably why theyre cheaper.
Key They are the same..just some are older maybe or maybe the run on that particular flavor wasn't as good or filled as much as normal. No one else but Kanger makes them..period.
I bet a lot of carts are just old, especially seeing that catomizers are just now catching on. Wonder what the shelf life is?
Now a few suppliers are getting things changed..that's for the best, things need to be changed! Too many carto's are coming out bad lately or filled with mixed up flavors or even yucky flavors. Check every website..they all have complaints about a certain flavor this week..another next week.

Drew is out of menthol but should have back in stock soon!
I have purchased quite a bit from Eastmall and was totally satisfied with their carts. But now, I stay stateside, because the quality is the same, since the manufacturer is the same.
The only reason I did buy from them back in April and May was the price of the carts....they were a lot cheaper......but, and a big but......I had to spend $200 to get free shipping.
The customer service was excellent with Ed (SIN) always responding quickly to any of my queries.
I've been more than satisfied with the vendors here, and plan to continue stateside because I choose to give our US suppliers my business.

Maybe your right Marykay,but the yellow ones Ive tried have all had the same peppery taste and not lasted very long.could have been a bad batch I guess.
