    Website Redesign Update

    Question away, you have your personal experiences and I have mine. I've used a back-log system before and it didn't work. With this method we are able to get in front of the orders day-to-day quicker than we can if we allow them to pile-up. I won't go any more into it as the story would be...

    Website Redesign Update

    It really will be and I hope everyone understands this is as much a test of the new system as it is a re-opening. After we meet the backlogged demand the traffic and system stress likely won't put any part of the website to the test... but right as we open? Definitely a good time to stress...

    Website Redesign Update

    "Ample"... never. I used to shoot for "more than needed" but that is a state that doesn't exist. With two new crew members and a fresh website we will be capping orders. If this re-opening is anything like our previous moves we won't be open long after we allow orders through. This narrow...

    Website Redesign Update

    Here's the update I promised for today: Our opening date is still changing so nothing new there. I'm hoping to have us online Monday or Tuesday (can be changed) We will be able to open with shipping to the US and Canada at first with plans for international shipping to come later...

    Sneak peek at the new store.

    Pretty much. If I had to slap an arbitrary number out there I'd say 60% or more will be custom. 40% crutch coding. Right now we have to input the data (all DB rebuilt from scratch) As we take care of this our coders/IT persons are handling a few special tweaks we will need to automate some...

    Website Redesign Update

    Quick Update: Over this weekend we will be adding products and all of the data entry, this may bleed into Monday's work. Mid-week is dedicated to adding the data and polishing looks. End of week should be finalizing functions and *fingers crossed* opening. There's quite a lot more going on to...

    AVE's now a thing of the past in my book...

    Thanks ASF146! Really though I should be updating more. I can and should, if only to respond to forum questions, etc. Thank you for your patience and understanding, it is nice to get that message on my end. However, leave me on the hook, I need the stress and pressure. In an odd way the...

    Steeping Boba's Bounty

    I, personally, vape it fresh. I live with the stuff so letting it wait a few weeks seems counterproductive, but I have had the opportunity to vape many aged bottles of Boba's and it is quite tasty. Different too, but that's a variety of time and chemical processes that the liquid is exposed to...

    Website Redesign Update

    True. I think Jethead hit the nail on the head in another thread (here): http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/alien-visions-e-juice/415299-aves-now-thing-past-my-book-2.html#post9548589 If I'm not saying much it's because the likely hood of plans changing is greater than my ability to...

    P.S. - Yes, I do seem to talk the way I write...lots of parenthetical tangents and additions.

    Thanks Jethead, you summed up the delay in updates fairly well. You are spot on at least with my hesitation to set specific dates. I learned early that as soon as you set a date, something happens to extend that timeline. We still get some hardware from overseas, but I try to stay local where...

    Nor should they. People effected need someone to vent the anger off at, and we're the best place. It's understandable and expected. After getting a good idea of how the intrusion was made, I'm sure there is more that can be done. This issue is the primary reason we are offline now and remain...

    While AVEJuice is working out their kinks, they could do this...(?)

    As for ordering. Our only framework for processing orders is via the internet. This happens to be the exact thing we are redesigning right now. For now making an order isn't a possibility, once the website is back online it will be. I've added another thread to the front page addressing the...

    Hmm the deleted posts worry me. What's going on here that someone feels the language is too naughty? This is an open forum so please exercise the civility you would in an open forum in the physical world. We attack arguments, not people. *granny glare*

    Website Redesign Update

    Update: We are still offline for the time being but there are changes arriving that everyone should be reminded of. We are rebuilding/recreating our website, so many of you will encounter an error when you land on the homepage. The error is part of the process and will be fixed when the new...

    I'm not on here day-to-day so I get a chance to let the conversations flow and grow. It's good to see what people are thinking and what the concerns are. Here is what's going on with us. We are not going out of business. We have been closed and we let everyone know we would be closed for a...
