    Boy, I have a gripe with that company. I placed an order last month and they switched the item to something else because they were actually OOS of what I ordered. I contacted them and they sent a shipping label to return the package.

    They got the returned package two weeks ago and I'm still waiting for my $78 refund. I've sent an email each day for the last week about it, and haven't gotten a reply or a refund yet.

    Sounds to me like you're headed for the supplier negative review thread. How did you pay? You might be able to file a dispute with your credit card company. Or at least tell them you are going to do that if you don't get the refund by a certain date. Most companies hate charge backs.

    I'm not sure how other banks handle it, but my bank wanted me to jump through all kinds of hoops for a Debit Card dispute. I said screw it, that's too much work. Luckily Dicodes-USA came through and made good on their debt. Now I use my Credit Card for online orders from unfamiliar vendors.
    And if you used a debit card, call your bank. You may have the ability to file a dispute on a debit card, too.

    I forgot all about that thread ... in 10+ years of vaping this is the first time I've run into a problem w/ a vendor. I guess it was bound to happen someday.

    Used CC/Debit Card - had problem with vendor and after a total of 19 emails in 2 weeks called Bank, told them of problem and disputed the charge - Very easy process took 15 minutes - I was told the bank will give the vendor a chance to respond . . . And the bank would get back to me in writing within 8-10 buiness days . . . Well 10 Days later, checked and a "Charge Back' of the money taken by vendor was back in my account . . . Letter with confirmation never arrived . . . . Letter ? - Money? > I'm just glad with getting the money back . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

    The following might be useful for those who've been buying flavorings, bottles, PG, and VG from Heartland Vapes in the past. I've quoted from their email that just came a few minutes ago:

    "Please be advised:
    All flavoring and bottles offered at Heartlandvapes.com will no longer be available. Only nicotine and E-liquid will be available @heartlandvapes.com
    Food Flavoring, PG, VG, and bottles will now be available at Hempnetix.com
    Please note, these items are multi-purpose food and beverage products. We have Chosen our shipping provider to be FedEx for Hempnetix.com "

    I was wondering several weeks ago...if they'd do the above or not, (ie. separate their sales of those things from their Heartland Vapes website). They possibly wouldn't lose their customers who've been buying them from Heartland Vapes then. It's a good idea, IMO.

    ug ok...well shinyitis got me....
    bought all 3 colors....well then, I sure hope I really like this mod :lol:
    really can't say much though $112 for 3 dual 21700 battery mods....it's like buy 2 get 1 free.....

    aside from the aegis legend I've never bought the same mod twice (or thrice for that matter) but then again the pending ban is kind of fueling my desire for backups.

    ok seriously no more mods :lol: maybe a couple more profile rdas but that's it....no more, no more, stop it, willpower :unsure::blink:

    Shadav, your angst about whether to buy that mod or not got me looking at it from curiosity. Since I love dual 21700 mods and there really aren't a lot of good ones out there, I ended up ordering it as well. But only one! :D

    I received my orders from sourcemore and healthcabin today - a pico 25 mod from each. I must say, both were really fast. And vapesourcing was fast as well. Three orders outstanding now from FT - two have shipped.

    I now have six new mods. I have loaded up with coils for the zenith tank - two more of those on the way from FT. I am waiting for two packs of coils for the ello tank, two more zenith tanks and one more pico 25 from FT. I even got a set of coils for my Innokin Endura 22 which I haven't used in years. Amazingly the Endura is still in good working order.

    I think that is enough!

    A warning to all about ordering from Hyde Vapors in the UK. I've been having nothing but trouble with them. In February, I ordered a Vaperz Cloud VCP mech mod and it arrived in a timely manner, but it didn't work. I sent them a number of emails but they never responded. I sent emails to Vaperz Cloud who instructed me to disassemble the unit and clean it. That didn't work. There was nothing more that Vaperz Cloud could do, it being an older model it couldn't be replaced. When I left a bad review for Hyde Vapors, I finally got a response to my email to them and they agreed to a refund. I had to ship this thing back to the UK at my expense and it took 6-7 weeks to get there. Once I saw they had received it, I began emailing them about my refund, but they have yet to reply, even though I have sent 4 emails and have waited nearly 2 weeks. I'm giving them until Monday and then I'm contacting my credit card for a charge back. Again, don't do business with Hyde Vapors.

    I haven't ordered from Sourcemore before, but wanted to get the wife a couple more Pico 25's. Ordering by credit card safe?

    I've been away from vaping and mixing for several years. Can someone recommend from the above companies flavorings a caramel or butterscotch that mixes well with realistic (NET) tobacco flavors?

    I'm trying for a more realistic RY4 type of taste.
    you might like to ask over in the random diy thread: Random DIY mixing and More

    :lol: oh common, you know you want more colors :lol:
    it really looks to be a good mod, an improvement to the aegis legend since it takes 21700's, so betting I'm gonna like them
    I know the aegis x takes 21700 (pretty sure I read that) but, I don't know I just don't quite like the new look they gave it....

    just watch what they charge you...twice i've had an issue with them overcharging me...and it's not something you'd notice..the first time was almost $5, and they were like opps our bad and refunded the difference...this last time it was only $1.70 but were being buttheads about it and trying to say it was my bank (it wasn't my bank) then trying to say it was due to the exchange rate...but the listing was in usd, i paid in usd, so yeah no...I showed them a screen shot from the checkout, and the 2 emails they sent me where it showed that the price was different then what they charged me.

    It's the safest way, I think. I dont trust that western union bit, because if you have a dispute you've got nothing to back you up. If your card let's you generate a special number for online purchases, so much the better.

    Frankly, it was my first order from them and their service was excellent. However, I tried a second order yesterday, with cc, and it was declined with the message that future attempts would also be declined. Not sure what that was about since there is no problem with the cc. I got picos from both vapesourcing and healthcabin recently. I used the paypal option if I am not mistake.

    Ive ordered from sourcemore multiple times. All by credit card and never had an issue. Sometimes they would ship quick and others i wouldn't get notified the order had shipped for a few days but i always recieved my order. Have been very satisfied with everything ive bought from them.

    I would never use my credit card with a Chinese vendor. I've read too many horror stories about their terribly insecure systems.

    Also realize your credit card company will likely charge you an international charge fee. It probably won't be more than $5, but it's something to be aware of.

    Try contacting sourcemore. Last I heard they do take paypal with an alternate paypal account and they will tell you how to proceed.

    Sourcemore spare Pulse V2 bottles showed today, pretty fast shipping cycle.
    FastTech Haku Riviera clone that started shipping in China on 3/20 made it to LA on 4/23, so should show fairly soon :)
    Healthcabin Hellvape Vertex shipped 4/9, made it to LA 4/21, again should be here fairly soon.
    No nibbles on my classy since last weekend, but no sweat for me. I'll probably post the stash of 180 EUC ceramic coils and 2 tanks, and a couple of Vaporesso dual battery mods/kits, this weekend.
    A long week at work - 54 hrs M - Th, today was only 6 :)
