    What day in December did you order from eightvape? It took several days for them to respond to my first ticket.

    I made one order to 3avape and it came promptly. Promptly as in under three weeks. Not very prompt but it is for a chinese company. I'm trying to steer clear of international orders personally.

    All my orders were going smoothly until recently. I'm glad I'm stocked up...not sure I could deal with this for a lot of orders. :eek:

    I placed a small order directly with Geek vape on Dec. 24th. I was trying supposedly active coupon code (don't know if it's the one you've been trying), but I could not get it to work at all. I gave up and placed the order anyway and it was a small inexpensive order.

    I didn't get a email confirmation or shipping notices. Just my PayPal email receipt from PayPal for making the purchase.

    The status is marked as complete on my account page w/ Geek vape but the package is just sitting in China. They may be trying to outdo FT on slow processing and shipping.
    I have the same notice from 3avape but order was placed on 11/27.

    Mine is a small order as well... but when it comes to the discount, it's about the principle for me. lmao... That tracking looks like most of mine from China lately. I have several that are 3+ weeks out and just stalled.

    I've ordered a couple times from Geekvape and the shipping has been very slow both times. As a matter of fact I have an order I'm waiting for that's been near a month already. Whatever shipping they use is very slow. I couldn't find replacement top caps for my zeus tanks so I contacted them and they were very helpful and sold me some. The customer service was great but the shipping is slow even compared to other china shipments.

    I ordered a few tanks direct from Wotofo.
    Was happy they were being shipped from their US warehouse in CA.
    Shipped Dec 27, still waiting for their 3rd party shipper "Newgenics" to get it across the country where USPS will take over.
    Paid $10 shipping, no response to first e-mail to Wotofo :grr:

    I placed an order with Geekvape on 12/24 and I haven't even gotten a confirmation email about it. 1/2 of my items were pre-order but they haven't shipped any of the other stuff yet either. I wouldn't care if they waited two months to be able to put the whole thing in one box but jeez send a confirmation email. That really irks me.

    Just picked up another order from Eightvape. They sent me a confirmation email but no tracking, no big deal I wasn't in any rush. Then the package shows up today, very strange to not see tracking from Eightvape. Their site is still showing unfulfilled too... maybe I'll get 10 boxes of coils for the price of 5?

    I placed 4 orders today. Central Vapors and Eciggity both sent me tracking information within an hour of ordering. Vapenw is in the process of moving, so no tracking info yet from them. And then there's eightvape, no tracking info but I expected that as they have never shipped the same day as I ordered.... But based on everyone else's recent experience I will just be happy if it ships at all. I only placed the order with eightvape due to the crazy prices (which is really the only reason to order from them). I have been saying for months that they are not known for their customer service, but it looks like their service (or lack thereof) continues to spiral downward. I got lucky with my 3 different eightvape orders from Xmas week, hoping to have the same luck with this order.

    And right after I posted that I got tracking from vapenw.

    Well I finally got my 8vape order that was placed on the 28th it included the revengers which I think is what most of us were waiting on.

    On another note for those of you who bought the Moti. Eciggity has the refillable pods for only $9.
    That's great you got your order, I just opened a ticket as it is still marked unfulfilled. It had the $.99 Moti's and a green Revenger X in the order.

    Should I trust Sourcemore when they say something, a new product, is in stock? I've never used them before and I don't remember hearing anything about how they treat their customers.
    I've always got my orders from them, they are slow tho

    Picked up some pods today from Element and Kangerwholesale. Sticking to USA orders and ones that are good on shipping :) Got the Minifit and a couple Innokin's, the EQ and Podin. Was not cheap but hoping to find non leaking pods for my trip. I need to try them out. The Podin is so cute I couldn't resist LOL Had it in the cart, out of the cart several times then finally just bought it :)

    If you're just going to try every pod out there... I'd recommend getting the Aspire Breeze 2 as well with some 1.2 coils. I've left it sitting for months and it didn't leak. I am getting a little gurgling from it right now but usually just vaping on it a little drives that away.

    I thought about the Breeze 2, it take Nautilus coils?

    No they have their own coils called the Breeze coils. 99% positive the Breeze and the Breeze 2 take the same coils. Come in 0.6, 1.0 and 1.2. The 1.0 spit juice in my mouth just a little bit, have never tried the 0.6 and the 1.2 has been a solid performer for at least 3 weeks.

    You can buy them anywhere I'm just giving you a link so you know what to look for... I know you don't like shopping MVS. I've also found them at 8vape and vaporL but again I don't think you shop at those places.

    Replacement Coil Atomizer Heads for Aspire Breeze - Pack of 5

    *ETA* The gurgling has already gone away.

    Hello everyone, hope you are well.

    Since we’re discussing shipping woes, I will add mine to the group. My Topside Lite ordered from SourceMore on 12/14 hasn’t shown any shipping movement via USPS since 12/19. I contacted USPS. My local USPS office is awesome about replying; unfortunately, when my Armageddon was lost at Florida’s USPS location (which I cannot file a claim for a refund nor will the people at FL Vapor Supply offer me any compensation, or any sympathy whatsoever), I had to contact USPS and my local office was very kind in assisting me about that. I will be very upset if within a month USPS will have lost two packages of mine.

    I have four FT packages on the way. Also another Brunhilde, Topside Dual White Carbon, and hypothetically the Topside Lite coming yet. The stress of wondering about shipping has taken the fun out of stocking up. I think any purchases going forward will be done at B&Ms that remain open. I am willing to pay more for something I can have in hand. Buying online is good for deals, of course, but mainly for variety. If local B&Ms had better options I would likely buy most of my items from them.

    Just placed my first ever order with Vaprzon. Wanted to wait until I tried this Vaporesso GT 0.4 coil out before I put this order in but I got worried about them selling out. Then I was only going to buy 10 boxes but the coupon I used *welcome30* implies that it's for first orders only so I got 20 boxes.

    Just a little bit irritated that they made me ship to my billing address. I really hate that, I wonder if I can change my credit card's billing address to my work address so I never have to worry about that again.

    I am DONE buying coils. I actually don't even know how many I have I'll have to do another count when I get home.

    It’s the aspire nautilus aio that takes them. When I went to hunt mine down for an ECF friend who wanted one, found it in a bedside drawer upstairs (thanks, kids :rolleyes:), on its side, full of juice... no leaks. It had been there for months. Tossed the pod and sent the device. She likes it quite well. I bought it because of its use of the nautilus coils.

    How about a group hug for the stocking thread peeps? *hug*. And let’s hope all our orders come in!:wub:
