Ahlusion E-Juice Part 3

[rabernet]

I have mixed feelings about all this. I don't feel like what Wlad tells folks is always true. He said they don't do feedback coupons for every order if you order multiple orders in a week? I get them when I place multiple orders on the same DAY as well as the same week. He told me when the February feedback coupons didn't come out that he couldn't manually make any, but some people were reporting in the thread that Amanda was issuing them to them. He's not consistent in his messages, and when they take down flavors with no warning to his loyal customers, that's concerning. Many of us would stock up if we knew that our favorites had an expiration date in his line up.

But yet, I haven't found another vendor that is as consistent in their quality, so I keep ordering.

Yea and they came back with the new Caramel House Blend! So no panic yet my friends

Soooo... Caramel Boba Tea next?

I'll believe they'll drop Boba when I see it. I seem to remember Boba showing up in their top sellers list often. Don't quote me on that, but I do think it's a very popular juice.

Switched to Maple Wild Wood after Banana Cream Pie. Tastes like... nothing really lol. Yep, my taster is taking the evening off, time to vape up some duds.

Wlad is obviously not a native English speaker. When he says something that doesn't make sense to me I just ask something along the lines of, "I don't think I'm clearly understanding what you are telling me. Could you please clarify for me." If it still doesn't make sense I state what I think Wlad has meant and ask if I have it right.

Also, it's important to remember that Wlad comes from the flavoring industry where secrecy makes all the three-letter government agencies look like total slackers. I try very hard not to ask anything that might make Wlad uncomfortable in that regard.

this is exactly why i wrote i wish some one else had picked up the phone, when i called. on the surface he was being very cordial, but he just wasn't being accommodating at all, and his answers where not very clear. i think it would be wiser if he stuck to the juice making and let someone else handle customer service.

 

[Mazinny]

Ok let's just say feedback means "orders" you're telling me boba tea isn't one of his most ordered products. Maybe there truly is only 10 of us that order it.

sway, when i say something doesn't make sense, i am not implying that you are lying, or misunderstood. i don't know what he meant. i am just expressing amazement that the fate of a particular juice is dependent on feedback emails and not sales. that's all.

i don't know if the buzz on these threads is indicative of sales of a particular flavor in general, but i would have thought the boba teas were more popular than at least twenty other flavors i have never heard mentioned here, that are still being offered.

i would understand secrecy as to the makeup of a flavor, but secrecy in whether a juice is being discontinued !?

No harm, mazinny . I read and understand forum, voice inflection, facial expressions and the like! I'm as perplexed as the rest!

 

[swaycleveland]

Just for the record. I do NOT claim to know anything about what flavors will stay or go. I'm just concerned. I like most have put too much stock in one vendor. I now will be looking for multiple sources. something about eggs and a basket.

For some of us that were buying from Ahlusion a couple years ago, there were even more flavors that are now not there that were before, and a slew that are there now that weren't before. It's weird how it works, yes, but the strange thing is I barely can remember what I used to buy as they generally come back in another form -- but better.

As far as the communication thing goes, all I can say is it's best to deal in email communications in conjunction with phone, but in email communications one can always point to something that was spoken in writing. It's also hard too because people come to the thread and say "Wlad said ..." when I am not too sure that it is always meant to be repeated. I used to say "Wlad said..." a lot, but once I found out how often people would then go to him and say "Mann said you said..", I realized that a business owner may often deal with customers on an individual basis. Now, that still doesn't let the owner off the hook if some things are amiss, but I think if you expect Wlad to ever do what one thinks he "should do," you'll be waiting a long time -- but if you tell him what he said he was going to do, that's different.

As we all know, not much about Ahlusion is like many others in this business, and unfortunately that is not always a good thing. Luckily, the things that are not always a positive end up being trivial in the long run -- at least that's how I see it. I do think the concerns here have merit, I am just adding my thoughts on a larger picture.

Strawberry Banana Cream, Shipwreck (toasty coconut) Son of a Peach (coconut) Pink Label (berry)

Well that must explain it... i was looking at Xpress only. I'm shamefully an Ahlusion virgin... i'm excited to try their coconut, banana and berry flavors. Any recommendations?

 

[chanelvaps]

If you use say $50 and then do the percentage off twice it comes to about 37.2% (that is with the 25% plus your 15% off)

Roh... sorry newb here.

 

[gotarace]

I think they are doing a reshuffle and things are not what they appear at the moment. Yesterday i went to order mango and papaya lassi and was disappointed they were not available...today they were back on the menu. We will know soon what Wald and company are going to offer as far as different flavors...after the dust settles... i will address any concerns I have with what Ahlusion is and is not offering anymore.

I can't believe how much I spent on gear and juice these past two months. The sales are turning me into a spendthrift, and I don't like it! I am making a solemn declaration. August is going to be a buy-nothing-vape-related month. I mean it. I'll miss everyone, but I will have to stay off ECF. Maybe off the internet completely! One solid month. 31 days. I'm serious. If I come back before September, please berate me and kick me off!

 

[chanelvaps]

I think Lemon Cream is strong. I also think Mocha and Son of a Peach are. Shipwreck too. All some of my favs and I like bold flavors too. The milder ones are the cakes and desserts such the Tartins

Like the rest, I have more juice than I need but with 25% sale i may just need to try some more out Do I need a code? And, any suggestion? I love bold flavors and have recently received BGB, Devil Dog and JG blend. am also open to non tobacco suggestions

well I am debating whether or not I should order 10 30 mls of Son of a Peach. I do not think that is a very popular one. I cannot imagine being without it.
I remember the first of the year when panic set in because some sales were not going through due to law pertaining to internet sales of tobacco products. Nobody really knew why sales were not going through and in a moment of panic in the middle of the night I ordered 2 16oz bottles of MT Baker Vapor in something I thought (if need be) I could vape for life.
That darn stuff is stuck under my sink in the kitchen (probably will be forever too)

Personally, I think they are stretching themselves a little thin in flavor profile and quality. I've ordered maybe 30 flavors from them and only 4 or 5 that I would ever order again. One thing I've learned in my 9 months of vaping, is that there are always greener pastures. I've gotten flavors from other vendors which are superior in complexity and more pleasurable to vape, long term. I've been wanting to voice this for awhile since my last couple of orders. They have actually dropped in my personal list of best vendors.

Many of their flavors are one dimensional and or need excessive steeping. For example, Sahara is superb but takes 2 to 3 months to get there. SC is the same and takes that long or longer to come out. Boba Tea was the only vape, for me, that was stellar out of the box and Desperado is very good about a month out.

With that said, they are still a top tier vendor and I guess I have to take into consideration, my tastes becomes more demanding.

BTW. Anyone notice Sahara has a different base to it. It's almost fruity?

 

[PennyLynn]

Wow. A whole lot of conjecture going on here! And I have to admit I'm becoming obsessed with Ahlusion juice. Let us hope this will all turn out well...and remember when The Plume Room was going to discontinue Angel Sauce?
