*sigh*, well, if I cant work something out, I think Im going to give up on getting one.
I simply cannot order on Thursday or Friday, my work schedule prevents it. I actually changed my work schedule this week because they were expected to come in Tuesday (so I even planned Wednesday off in case there was a delay).
Imeo, you have to work out your restocking issue. I really wanted to
buy one and I simply cant. Im not saying I never will be able to, just that Im not going to try anymore. I have been trying since April. I get that you are doing these all by yourself, perhaps give the design to someone you trust and get more people working on the production. If you are truly happy with the design and there are no more changes that need to happen to make it not leak and have all the features you want, have someone make one, ship it to you to prove they can make it right, then have them start making them.
Yea, its a great product blah blah blah but if you never can get one, who cares? I am both disappointed and angry at the same time. Sure, there will be more in stock for a whopping 2 hours at a time every month. This is unacceptable. To expect a potentially new customer to sit around and refresh a page all day long for a week is too much to ask. Ive been doing this since April and still have not been able to get one. You have to realize, I WASTED alot of time between April and now. WASTED. Time I will never get back researching and trying to get my hands on one. Why is it wasted? Because I still dont have a product. Its Apple all over again except at least with Apple, in a month or so, they have the product in stock all the time. I get initial stocking issues but this is beyond obnoxious. They are in stock for only a few hours before being sold out for another month. Do you really expect a new customer to want to go thru that?
If you didnt already have a GG product, would you spend 4 months trying to get one not knowing first hand if its a good product?
I think I have put in enough time to get one. Unfortunately, I think the sale is going to benefit previous customers more than new customers which is a shame.
I also must mention, they arent always sold out necessarily because it is such a good product, they are sold out because so few of them are being made. I believe both statements are true and the GG line of products most biggest issue is availability. Period. Anyone that has been trying to get one could tell you that.
I have a life outside of ecigs (although lately, I question that) that I want to get back to.
One last note, I want one because I have a need for it if I am going to continue to vape. It is really unsafe to drive while dripping and I cant stand carts (they never work). I care about other people on the road and my attention to the road is the most important issue for me. If I worked an office job or sat at home, I would be completely fine with dripping. This isnt about wanting one because I just 'want' one, its about being able to do one of the few things I still enjoy (
vaping) safely.
If I can get one in the future by randomly checking in, I would be thrilled. Otherwise, I wish ya the best.
And yes, Im a bit bitter :/
