between here and there
I've had a FT package stuck in Chicago for 12 days. I haven't had anything get stopped that long in quite a while.
The 1 time i had a package entering customs in NY and it never came out. I ended up having to put a ticket in at FT (after their required waiting period) and request that they contact the post office. Their answer was months down the road and when I finally had to contact them again they apologized for the wait --it fell through the cracks somewhere along the way. They had received a answer from USPS a few weeks before that that USPS had declared it lost and then I got a full refund of my entire purchase. After you put the ticket in do not close it until they actually do the refund. Makes it easier for all to track the original request.....would not want to wait months only to be told they lost or cannot find original request.

Heard that and immediately went to my local gas station. It is still $2.79 a gallon here.
Went to the grocery store because I have days of coffee creamer left. The whole coffee/cereal isle was decimated. Milk/eggs gone but I did score a half gallon of almond milk. I'll try it in a pinch. At the checkout there was a big burly guy with a gun holstered on his hip where no one could miss it. This is unheard of in Phoenix. People have gone insane.

I would have assumed open carry would be a bit more common in your area. Even here in Ohio I see people open carrying pretty frequently. Its never bothered me, but I've grown up with a shotgun in my hands.

Or toilet paper take your pick. I personally find TP makes great wicks.
Be careful not to dry burn it...

Hellvape destiny expected receipt at the supplier has shifted to the end of March. Thankfully it's hardly a must-have kind of item.

Just placed two orders from Chinese vendors. One from FT that's mostly spare glass, vape bands and a couple odds and ends, and from Sourcemore that is mostly attys and one mod. It looks like everything in the FT order should be ready to ship within a week, and everything I bought at Sourcemore was listed as shipping in 24 hours, so I feel good about it. I got e packet, of course.

Has anyone noticed things from China shipping quickly in the past couple of weeks, or am I in for a longer than the normal wait?

Mine shipped pretty quickly, but everything was in stock/24 hr. A couple have gotten stuck at customs here, others have sailed through. One is non-vape that’s in limbo, so I’m guessing they’re just running behind here.

Sounds pretty good. Thank you!

    I have one from FT stuck in customs and everything else is slow boat. I have a few orders right now from china. Shipping seems to be very slow for mine. I have one order that I placed and I had to contact the vendor when it hadn't shipped. It was only then that they told me it was out of stock and would be 1-3 weeks before it even shipped. I would expect a wait. Of course since I said that you'll probably get yours quickly.

    Thanks Hittman. Hope both of our packages are speedy shippers!

    I hate to admit in over ten years, I’ve never recoiled a drop in before. Do I have to use an n-nr-n (brain fart on what it’s called)? Or can I build a micro coil out of regular wire?
    Kinda depends on what you are recoiling. A Sophia or Diver you pretty much HAVE to use NR-R-NR. Everything else I just use usual Kanthal.

    In vaping news anyone else getting informational letters from vape vendors on how they are keeping things clean for corona virus safety? Got one from MyVPro and Vape NW so far.

    Also the 2 21700 mechs I ordered last week stateside came in today. I have one China order that just hit ISC New York. 3 more china orders on slow boats.

    If you are offended by thoughts of religion or off topic stuff stop reading here.

    Asking anyone who prays (in whatever manner they choose) to please pray for one of my husbands students Jalon who was shot 2 nights ago multiple times (14 year old boy). He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. We learned yesterday he made it through the surgery but he is in very serious condition and only time will tell how he pulls through this. I would be most grateful for any and all prayers for the young man.
