This is why I love this Forum! I've been thinking about the Boba for a while now and now I know I want it! This is why I stay away from car lots... I'm an easy sell :)


hey man, I would wait a week or two to order it. Sounds like they are having some quality issues. Ben is in the process of moving back to the US from Korea. I'm sure it will be cleared up once he gets back.


But then.....you should def. try Boba's. It is my all-time favorite tobacco juice.

Ben took Boba's and RY4 off the site a couple of days ago until he can get moved and check things out in person. This is the upstanding kinda guy Ben is! He would sooner pull the product and lose sales then sell an inferior product to us. Way to go Ben!! I will always be a customer of alien Visions not just for the great product but for Ben's true care about his product and his customers.

Same here I think I ordered like, hours before it was taken offline.

Hope what I get is right. I'm really anxious to try this suff as the reviewer has stated it.

i just got my other order of Bobas bounty

I thought i should buy the 6MG and apparently

it turned out crap

It is very very thin! has more flavor that the other bobas bounty crap i have

I have 3 juices from them that are messed up

RY4 and 2 Bobas bounty

This is crap! i spent the most money with them and i don't get what i first got from them

I don't think i'll ever order again unless he can fix this right for me

the new Bobas bounty produces little vapor? wtf?

I feel so bad reading about these mess ups... I ordered around the same time and with the exception of a 24 that turned out to be a 6... the other 8 bottles were right... and they vape amazing with tons of vapor... from what I have read, Ben's going to make the orders right...
I vape a lot... my favorite flavors include ecopure rich, tasty vapor flavors and Boba's... boba's has consistently been high quality for me... thick, rick flavored juice with tons of vapor...

keep us posted on what they do for you...

When I called the help line, I spoke to him while he was in Korea... he was very friendly... didn't rush me, impressed me as someone who wants to make things right...

I have met many good people in the two months I have been buying + buying + buying juice and supplies... Ben is among the top...

I really believe they will get all of this straightened out, but it might take a while. It is a shame to have this happen right when Alien Visions was quickly rising as a new favorite of many vapors, but if you think about it many of the great vendors out there experience fairly significant problems when they start to grow exponentially.

They will work it out in time. I know that the Marly and the Irish Creme I got from them rock. And I know when I get The Real Deal Boba's it will rock too! I can wait until then. Plenty of good vendors to hold me over.

true, it's just a shame because I really had ended my quest for the ultimate satisfaction of my tobacco cravings. I'll come back but in the meantime....I need to look elsewhere since I blew through my bobas and flue cured. The marly and havana are good, but don't get me where I'm looking to go.

I decided to bite the bullet and buy a 30ml of halo. Went with the tourqe 56. Never tried it and might get stuck with 30ml of something I don't like. Couldn't pass up the sale though.

Ha, I did the same thing. I got the Torgue 56 and the Freedom. Haven't tried either yet so I am looking forward to it. I've read great reviews.

I'll see when my Bobas arrives, but if it is bunk, it sounds like the vendor is going to make good on correcting it..

I'm not too worried, it sounds like this guy is top notch, and I know how horrific an overseas move can be, it cant be fun dealing with disappointed customers at the same time.

I too picked up some Torque 56 (and Smooth8, and freedom juice) while the sale was going on. I havn't tried them yet, but I keep hearing good things.

Just got my order!

Tried the Boba's so far. Mine is a very dark red color, and a bit thinner than the other two juices I ordered (Flue Cured and Marly), but it tastes great. Bottle says "M" on it, which I think means medium.

Flavor: It has a smoky flavor with a chocolate undertone. It's not sweet at all, however... it's more of a dark, unsweetened chocolate undertone. I don't know if I would say it tastes exactly like a cigarette but it's probably the closest thing I've tried so far, so I'd definitely recommend it. Also, there is no "chemical" aftertaste that you get with a lot of the Dekang tobacco liquids. It tastes very clean and doesn't leave a weird taste in your mouth when you're done.

TH: Good TH, just enough to let you know it's there. No burning or anything like that.

Vapor: RIDICULOUS! I put two drops on my atty with the bridge/wick removed, and the vapor cloud was insane. So much of it, and it hung around for a bit. Definitely won't be disappointed with the vapor production. Also, the juice is pretty thick, so 2 or 3 drops will stick on your atty without flooding it, and will vape long enough to give you 7-8 good draws.

So, after first impressions, I would highly recommend it. I'm interested to see if my perception changes the more I use it but, as of right now, I'm loving it!

Oh yeah... the bottles are also really cool as well. Neat shape, good dripping tips and, I dunno, they just look really awesome for some reason. :p

I'll post my thoughts on the Marly and Flue Cured a bit later, after I've had a chance to try them.


Oh, and as for people wondering why shipping took a while: it looks like they use First Class shipping, which is the cheapest the USPS offers, so it will probably take 5-7 days to get to you. I ordered last Thursday, shipping conformation Friday afternoon, so that's 6 days (or 5, if you don't count Sunday, where there is no delivery).

Got my bobas today.. Shouldnt have worried, LOL.

Nice deep jewel like red color, good consistancy, says "H" on the outside (Im thinking for "High")

Great flavor, Some slight chocolate, and burnt caramel overtones, but not sweet. Big vapor, and this one has a really, really strong TH, but in a great way.

Thanks, AVEJuice this guy is a keeper!

Here's my thoughts on the other two:

-Marly-

Flavor: I once had a friend say he though non-menthol cigarettes tasted like "dust". He was kinda right, and that's what this tastes like. It's a dry, dirty, smoky flavor that is probably the closest thing to an American cigarette flavor I've tried.

TH: Pretty much the same as Boba's.

Vapor: Good, but not as much as the Boba's

-Flue Cured-

Flavor: Similar to the Boba's, with a much less pronounced flavor. The chocolate undertone is still there, but much less intense. The smoky flavor seems to come out here more. I like this one, too. The Boba's is great, but this one seems more like an all-day use one, whereas I could see myself getting tired of the Boba's if I used it all day, 24x7.

TH: Good, good, good! Especially for a VG juice. Pretty much the same as the other two.

Vapor: Not as much as the Boba's, but still a lot.


So overall, I'd recommend all 3: Boba's, Flue Cured, and Marly. They're all somewhat similar and, honestly, the major differences between them seems to be how much "other" flavor is there, as they all have the dirty, smoky undertone of a real cigarette.

These are definitely going to be my main liquids, I think!
