Damn Rick . I didnt know it had got so bad with you mate...whats the go? I have just stuck with original DSE 901's here and they have been great . Mate , e-cigs can be frustrating, but once you get the hang of em , they really can replace analogues, this forum is testament to that . Living here in Aus with all our restrictions of distance , customs, and the bans, I surely know where you are coming from...I thoroughly recommend Wayne at ruyandirect for us aussies, good shipping times, i have not had a product failure or DOA from him. I am still even on my original atomisers !!!
Keep the faith brother and stick to the simple stuff that works?
Thumpy you know how It is mate, an Aussie downs afew and goes on a destructive rampage---so much wreckage and sadly and most regretfully left some victims in my wake
I just snapped mate after a couple of jacky Daniels. got blinded drunk, and blamed the world for my e-cig woes, when it is just as you and i before you said---the costs and defectiveness of these electronic cigarette's just got to me…I can’t get a break with these devices, or evil contraptions

*as i like to refer to em*
And i rest my case, I just received my package from bestecig.com only moments ago (Oh dear!!) Mad was right i think, The 901 USB battery does not work very well *it keeps blinking* and staying on by itself, Grrrr
God hates me that’s what it is...Now i would!.... hate him back
*as it did work for mel gibson at one time or another* but! knowing my luck god would just send me another defective e-cigarette just for thinking it Lol…..I am not buying anymore e-cigs…and this just consolidated my resolve
The USB e-cigar works ok but it feels and looks cheap! As, the material of the paper rolled around the cigar feels and looks like toilet paper and you can not see the led light at the end of it, that’s very frustrating when talking a puff when you can not see if its on or even working when trying to vape with it.
The bestecigs BE112 pen style is ok-ish, but don’t even get me started on it though..Or i could be here all night mate Lol
Or am i just being to judgmental, should i just except it and get over it….or is the fact that i now have to send the 901 USB batterie cable and atomizer back to bestecig and it will cost me alot to send back, unlike people in the USA or closer with better exchange rates for a replacement justification enough to why i snapped like i did late last night
The government also has there greedy little eyes on the Inevitable tax take that will be placed on the e-cigarette/e-liquid industries and retailers/wholesalers here in australia that will evenually happen *you mark my words*, as evident to the reason why they banned the e-cigarette here in the first place....It had absolutely nothing!! to do with are health.....Oh! pleaaaseee!!!.....we do have half a brain in are sweet heads..smoking analog all these years hasn't taking that away from us completely..... it was all about the tax...nothing more---nothing less-----period!
What ever is the right or wrong feeling? I just know that this will be the last e-cigarettes of any kind… as i have said and i will now iterate again..when there has been a massive advancement in the e-cigarette technology and the e-cig is firmly associated with the name reliability ….when the exchange rate between us Aussies and the rest of the world is more in line with some kind of sanity in the currency sense of the word….then and only then will i put myself out there again and treat myself to a non cancer stick that seemingly seemed so promising to me once upon a time
And that is about all that is up trumpy my brother..
…….i bet you’re sorry that you even asked now, eh mate??

lol
