Anticipation

[StDoodle]

I have an eGo kit and sample pack of juice on the way from Cignot. I find I'm obsessively checking the tracking (I even bookmarked the page). Did anyone else here find the anticipation overwhelming while waiting for their first set of supplies to come in? Am I the only one who's been so excited that it's difficult to get anything done? And most of all, any suggestions on how to deal with it until my stuff arrives?

Thanks!

No, you're not the only one.
And it won't stop on just your first order of stuff.
You will continue to do it even after you've ordered stuff dozens of times.
It never ends
It never ends


LOL..
Stalking the mailman must be the #1 most common side effect of Electronic Cigarettes.

Welcome to ECF and the vaping world.


Sorry, I don't think there is a cure for this side effect.
I believe smokers (who are now vapers) must have at least a little OCD in them, otherwise they probably wouldn't have smoked in the first place.

Oh yeah! I am always waiting for stuff. The best plan of attack while waiting? Order more stuff! Then every day is like Xmas. You are not alone StDoodle.

 

[oettinger]

I do that on every order...

ALL of my normal vendors are bookmarked, as well as the USPS tracking site.

Some always surprise me with there speed, and SOME never surprise me with the lackadaisical way they ship days or weeks after they have my money...

I ordered the kit on Friday. I've accomplished nothing at work today since the update this morning said the package was out for delivery...

I finally opened the box 10 minutes ago. My first battery is on the charger...

Me too! I bookmark the vendors and then tag them in Firefox: free shipping, e-juice, attys, etc. If you're a vendor and I don't get my order within a few days (I no longer order from China), there better be a good reason or I delete your bookmark.

Been there, I even finished up popping into the post office each day 30minutes after the truck dropped the mail off before the post man loaded his car to see if anything had come in lol.

If you aren't already on a first name basis with the postmaster, you will be!

Oh good!

And it won't stop on just your first order of stuff....It never ends

Oh no!

Probably. I'm guessing it similar to how it is with the Roll Your Own crowd; the most OCD of the OCD. (Ie those who are smokers are more likely to be a little OCD in the first place; those unwilling to give up on having their choice of taste / fed up with taxes / annoyed by fire-safe chemicals are more likely to switch to RYO in the past & vaping now.)

Lol, this is unfortunately my situation. I work from home, so it's a bit worse; there's no one to get on my case about it!

Haven't gotten there yet, but I did consider stopping by the post office just in case... didn't want to get that "obsessed," but I'm not sure if that will last...

Try ordering a Chuck and waiting 2 weeks for it to be born and another 4 days to get in your hands.... It's TORTURE!! lol

 

[Agrion]

I ordered my kit Saturday, I received shipment confirmation Monday, now I wait...

I'm chain smoking in anticipation.

 

[Plantgirl]

Youre going with Cignot which means you will get it FAST!! I actually have some cartos coming in from them tomorrow (or so it says on tracking). You will love your eGo!!

 

[quasimod]

After a few months of doing this, I'm pretty cavalier about my orders now... wait, is that the mailm

 

[classwife]

Stalking the mail man (and mail box) is great exercise too ! Love my eGos !

Here you go: Do you have obsessive-compulsive tendencies?

@joechemo
I'd love to see your bookmarks with tags.

I'm impatiently awaiting juice from cignot that I ordered Sunday. I live in a small rural town so everything takes an extra day The problem is I'm all out of juice.

Just ordered me a eGo to replace this dying 51 duo I was given and I'm anxiously awaiting it, wishing I could chain vape while waiting.

 

[mom_life_love]

Omg I thought it was just me! I thought I was going crazy with the wait, I got my PV and in the six days since I have orders from 3 different places coming in soon...tomorrow, etc. Yup I think I'm addicted too lol! Can you say OCD yup probably that 2!

 

[otrpu]

If my stuff doesn't show up in 3 or 4 days I start checking it. But, I hold lots of everything in inventory and order ahead. Learnt along time ago, if I didn't learn patience I'd be a very unhappy driver.


Cheers,
otrpu

I plan to do that fairly soon, but I want to make sure I'm happy with my choice of gear & liquid before stocking up.

My mailman doesn't come until around 4 p.m. Isn't that horrible!!!! I think they need to redo the route and make my neighborhood first on the route.
