ikenvape is my next stop after avid.

Ditto that Ejoker...he's got top notch....

Double Ditto

Some if not all IKV atty's are American made components to his specs and assembled in China. I've got a couple of HV mini 801's and it's a Fog machine.:vapor:

Wharf...I was joking, but in all honesty I can see why Don runs out. He hand makes the juices and counts on his suppliers to be in stock of ingredients. I have been vaping since the start of the year, and ikenvape never has the atty in stock. I wonder if he does not have the capital to have the atty's manufactered in bulk, or if they do this for a part time hobby.

I know with isaac he is really picky with the product he puts out.
He was getting bulk shipments of atty's that he wasn't happy with the quality of them so he sent them back.
He would rather wait than fill orders with products that don't meet his specs.

Basically just the same as Don,
We should all be happy that these guys don't settle for mediocracy.
Who's to say they don't just sell us anything, instead they want to stand behind a product they are happy with and know we will be too.

I wish more vendors were like Isaac and Don.

Yes it is interesting that Ikenvape has exactly the same problems with keeping stocked as BWB. Iken has even had to put a limit on orders as Don has. He is the same kind of vendor, great quality products and a genuine concern for his customers.

Jackinkc, when I can't get Iken's products I really like the standard SLB atomizers, both the 510s and 901s. They have have a little higher resistence (2.8-3.0 ohms), but you mentioned you have VV, so you can vape them at 5 volts where they really shine. You also can usually find them pretty cheap (less than $6) and I have found them to be very durable.

Adding to what you said camp......

I have used a lot of different kinds of atty's and have found that the 510's bruce sells @ COV are really top notch too.

I guess the big difference between Isaac and Don is I can find somewhere else to go when Ikenvape is out of stock. Not the case with Don.......and as much as I hate to say it......it's not for lack of trying!!! :) IMO I can't find anything that compares to BWB

I bought 2 Malty Toffees on March 8 when it was first available again. I didn't buy any more in the subsequent offerings since that day. Yesterday I bought a 30ml plain Malty. I hope that isn't being too greedy. I've never tried plain Malty, but I read a review on the forum that made me want to give it a try. :)

I'm hoping to get a 30ml bottle of RY4 as I've never been able to try that one yet.

Where is a good place to buy them?

I still haven't heard from Cisco, but I think that's what he carries.

I'm not perfect, as you can see. I forgot that silent "e" in Sailebao.

I wasn't going to point it out!

I think you are good...Don just wants to spread it around.
The malty and RY4 are really good...

Jean...When I first started vaping, my first juice was applewood. I used 30ml the first week. Half was trying to get POS carto's filled, but nonetheless I had to order more. I went to the site, and oh my god, he was out. It was back in stock the next day, so I ordered 2 cherry bacco's and 2 applewood 30ml. I think he is referring to doing that. I did not know any better though. Don, if you read this, sorry brother! I promise not to do that again.... :)

Also, Thanks for the help on the atties guys. I use LR atty's and am looking for other atty's besides LR. I only really know cisco though, so I am trying to find something comparable but with higher ohms. I'm going to wait and see what avid vaper comes back with. I'm curious to know what normal resistant atty's they use. The Almight One seems to think it's the SLB ones.
