    Default Blu?

    So the awesome ads that Blu has around the web got me looking into e-cigs, and after reading some reviews, I ordered a starter kit from them. However, after submitting my order it said 4-5 weeks delivery time and that only one dollar has been taken from my account until they can fill the order. (this happened as they said, btw) In the mean time, I found this forum. I started with quite the starter kit from vaportrailse-cigs.com for a 901 kit. Then ordered a 510 kit from cignot.com after seeing it in the review forum. My question now is: Are the blus such a downgrade that I should cancel that order? They look so slick, but I felt sick at my order after reading these forums. (they seem pretty hated around here despite the advertising.) The other kits I ordered should be much better, right? Should I use that money for supplies for my 901 and 510 that will be here soon, or just wait for the Blu and give it a try? All advise is welcome because that's 80 dollars that could go elswhere. Thanks and great forums!

    first ecig was a blu. as you, i did order my blu and a 901,.. 901 came first ! then (way after )came the blu ! right now the blu is a second choice if not a museum piece, ! ,carts wont last long , and the 901 is easy to handle better batt life and i am having lots of fun with the 901., spend the $$ on parts for the 901 or jices , you will be better off,,.. IMO.

    CANCEL!!! thats my opinion, but keep in mind I canceled mine and got a 510, I couldn't be any happier.

    From what I have read, Blu is an ok cig if it works. Lots of DOA Blu's out there. If it works you will get bad batt life(it is a small e-cig so what would you expect) throat hit is minimal, Vapor production is minimal, but the killer is customer service(couldn't be any worse).

    If you can cancel the do it, if it is too late then you will use it every now and then, but I think you should use that $80 and buy some juice and extra batts/atties.

    If you have a 901 and 510, you have two of the very best. Stick with those, and get your Blu in as a back-up.

    I started with a Luci, then 510, then on to a Jantystick also have a M401 (Dragon) and have a recently acquired Blu kit.

    I LOVE the Blu for certain reasons, but it will not be a main go-to for me, but there are times that I will reach past my others to take my Blu out with me.

    They are great as long as:

    You get one that works properly. There have been battery and atty issues.

    You don't have unrealistic expectations. You always hear folks compare them to 901s and 510s... and they shouldn't, they are MUCH smaller, thus perform to a lesser level. But the vapor production and flavor is very good considering the size.

    Here is my little review- What's all the whining about?


    Keep the order,youalready have two excellent units, the Blu will not be your only unit... so you can't be screwed. I think you might like it in the right situation.

    Wow! Thanks for the quick replies. So, I've asked blu to cancel my order, and we'll see what happens as far as customer support. I'm pretty sure I've made the right choice!

    Just wanted to give an update because I've read bad things about Blu's customer service. They canceled my order as I requested in under 24 hours, and they didn't touch more than the dollar in my account just like they said. So while I am happy with my other choices, I am happy with Blu's customer support. Now I need to see if my 901 or 510 show up soon. Please be quick Vaportrails and Cignot, please!
