This is right up Trog's alley. He could buy a case of 10 and always be sure one will work.

he he he.. i do buy for three bob.. but the idea aint so daft i used to buy my dodgy Belgium tobacco in 500 dollar batches to make sure i never ran out..

my mistake was paying up front the last time.. my "runner" got customs zapped on her last trip and the lot got confiscated..

not much different than buying e-cigs from china thow.. he he

i have toyed with the idea of buying wholesale and selling the odd one on.. still experimenting at the moment thow..

Looked at from that point of view, it ain't a bad idea. I get a big batch, so I'm sure of getting at least a few sets that are good. And when and if I run across someone who likes the idea and wants to buy one to get himself started, I've got something on hand.

Something to think about, anyway.

I sure wasn't being flip. The way Trog buys stuff, this might make sense for him and his e-smoking buddies. He could sell what he didn't need. It's a good link quirky posted.

looked at long term bob and assuming the type on offer work okay its the way to do it.. the other option i came across was minimum batches of 100 at 20 dollars per kit for the pen style.. the form type i like is the e-cig cigarillo.. simple and cheap but four failed atomizers in one week dont look good for em.. he he he

i see no logical reason they should fail but my first test has been a disaster..

It would also be worth while contacting a manufacturer, that you are interested in, directly. I have had good luck dealing directly for small orders. If your order is small, 10 or 20 boxes you don't have to have an importers license (in the states). Most Chinese manufacturers also have someone on staff who speaks fair English so you will be understood. That way you can get the product of your choice without having to deal with a distributor. There is also usually a discount from retail if you are are buying at least 10.
