I know a lot of people already answered this but ordered 9/13 shipped 9/16 arrived today.
Yeah, it was odd. Ordered Fri, only showed label created thru yesterday. This am, it finally showed activity- out for delivery. Now it shows delivered. Of course, USPS often shows delivered, but it doesn't show up until the next day, but at least it's been shipped.

I'm in Australia. But here, the PO explained to me that our scanners have no option of "Sorry, running late, will deliver tomorrow" if a postie runs out of time. So if it is scanned in the morning as out for delivery but the traffic sucks, their only option is to mark "Delivered"

I had something marked as delivered for 4 days before it got delivered. :D

Now I know why.

Ever left a beer bottle in the freezer too long? Never having observed nic in a freezer I didn't know whether it expanded or not. Seems like it doesn't (from the reply posts) and therefore the glass would be safe.
Yes, beer is primarily water. Water has a unique characteristic; it begins to expand at temperatures below 4°C. It also turns into a solid that expands even more below 0°C. This is why ice floats.

PG/VG/Nic does not do that. It continues to shrink with decreases in temperature and does not turn solid at home freezer temperatures (it just gets more viscous). In Freezer Experiment thread, I've got pic of samples as received at room temperature and then later the same samples at freezer temps, and you can see the level of liquid in the bottle has actually decreased.

My real question is about longer term storage between fridge and freezer. Guess the jury is still out.
I'm afraid it is. The question of storage at fridge temperatures (vs. freezer) never really showed up on my radar until recently. Maybe I'll split a 120 ml bottle from my stash up into some clear glass 30 ml bottles to see what I can find out.

Hah! A few years ago, I was expecting deliver of an very expensive, custom-made mod (a titanium CeeCee). It showed "Out for Delivery" in the morning. So I actually met my mail carrier at the mailbox with the expectation of receiving it. Imagine my disappointment when she didn't have it. A bit later, the tracking info changed to "Delivered". WTH? About half an hour before they closed, I drove to the Post Office with a print-out of the tracking info in hand. "Hey, this claims it was delivered today, but I don't have it!" The clerk got the head guy. He went in the back for a bit, and then came out with the box addressed to me. "Sorry, we put it on the wrong delivery vehicle this morning."
:rolleyes:

I'm all set with everything I will ever need in gear and DIY supplies now that I placed what should be my last vaping order last night. A big stash of VG and PG in 1 liter bottles (4:1 ratio of VG to PG). Ought to be more than enough VG/PG with what I already have on hand to see me through to the end of the trail.

The 'Burgh, PA.
trying to stock up on WTA

aroma is out of stock.

Aroma has been OOS of most (all?) WTA ejuices for awhile...

Have been unable to reach Umbavape's site for awhile...(Certificate Error)...

Omvapors has been OOS of Omvapors-WTA and Umbavape-WTA for awhile...

I'm now back to vaping nicotine...:shock:...(It's OK...but boring...)...

Somewhere out there
I have to remind myself it was all over in May anyway until something got approved, but today really got to me, I was so ticked off. Had to do my Tai Chi to get centered again :) Plus broke my glasses, I don't want more bills after all this last minute shopping LOL So I super glued them until I can get an appointment :) I'll survive!

Around here if they put it on the wrong vehicle they mark it "Undeliverable, returned to sender". The first time it happened I went round to the PO the next day. Guy said they don't have any good options on their system for that situation. They have to enter something so they use Undeliverable. Guess they don't want anything that sounds like "We screwed up".
