Apollo ecig 1cent order

[PaulieD]

I am also waiting since 11/21 for mine. I e-mailed and they told me the same line that they have told others here.
I found it interesting that they have run 2 other specials however....even though many still do not have the juice from the first offer?

 

[wshanncap]

I am being realistic. I made an order. I can wait. I had to contact them after 2wks., not the other way around. I think it's strange that nobody has received one of those orders?
I'm venting. Thanks for listening.

I gave them my penny and haven't heard from them since.

I stand corrected, "The vaping community at large" suffice?

lol, I wasn't picking on you Birdman Bman1959, just trying to convey how many people would have seen the offer

Birdman ??? Now you are picking on me.
Not smart enough to do emicolons. It's all good.

I'll bet it doesn't backfire on them. Think about it. They will be shipping out thousands of flavors to new customers. When I find a flavor I really enjoy that's reasonably priced, I order more. I'll likely try a similar flavor from another vendor but if it's not the same or better I'll come back for more. Granted, I'm assuming people will understand that the delay was caused by the free product offer. Some will return as regular customers.

I gave them 232 cents.
I guess I should get 232 samples next year!...LOL!

Maybe you are right shortdraw, and I hope you are. It was an interesting way to get their name out in front of a lot of potential customers. In fact it was quite refreshing to see a free liquid deal that wasn't some type of retail trap.

More power to them. Hope they run it again soon.

Mine just shipped out today, fingers crossed... I did not pay 0.01 though, I just had to pay for shipping o,o

Edit: and also, as others have mentioned, I imagine they got a TON of orders, or a hell of alot more then they expected. Never underestimate the number of vapers wanting free ejuice, haha!

Won't backfire on them

They just got a helluva mailing list for cheap, in exchange for some e-juice of unknown quality.

In the olden days when people used to get newspapers, most people thought they were the customers. They weren't. They were the product. Advertisers were the customers.

 

[thatrandy]

I'm not expecting much from their juice but we'll see. I just hope someone's not ordering a rolex with my credit card number.

Yeah, you'd sure have a bad TIME.... hahahahhahahahhahaahaha sry

At least I know I'm not the only one waiting, last time I got in on one of these promotions I never did get my juice just lots of spam.
I find it a bit odd that some people had to pay shipping, I only had to pay a penny (through pp at that). Maybe there was a couple different offer codes floating around.

The original deal was for 1 cent(supposedly for age verification) but then they raised it to a little over $2, I think they just wanted to cover shipping.

I'm not worried about it being a scam and for a penny I don't really care how long it takes, it would be nice to get the candy cane flavored one before the holidays are over though.

For those keeping track, ordered Nov 22, shipping today.

Did you order any thing else besides the free juice? My order was placed on 11/21 and is still processing.
Seems like they should process them in chronological order?

 

[eLefAdEr]

They did a similar giveaway about 6 months prior to this recent one and eventually stopped taking orders/ended the promotion. This time, it appears they just let them come flooding in, so it's going to take a while to fulfill all of them. My order is still processing.

Not worried about it since they are a legit supplier and I know it'll eventually turn up.

Yes I did. Don't remember what, but one other flavor.

 

[Runamok3x]

Understandable that you get priority over the rest of us.

The response after my 2nd e-mail follow up: My order was placed on 11/21/14

Thank you for that reply. We do realize your concern about your order and apologize about the time it is taking to process the shipment for you. We received nearly 10,000 promotional orders alone on top of the already high volume of retail orders we also received with our recent sales. Please bear with us as our shipping team works very hard to get all orders shipped out as fast as possible. We are a a US supplier and located in California. You will receive a shipping confirmation e-mail when your order is in the final stages of processing for shipment. According to the order number, I can guesstimate that your order will be processed for shipping over the next few days. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Sincerely,
Arvin
