"X" is that good. But the people who MAKE "X" have only opened their website for less that two hours in the last two months. They are very inconsiderate to all of their good customers,and I have no desire to do business with people like that. Hence the search for "Y" or,in this case,my NEW "X". You dig?

Well, I dug into my pocket and ordered some El Kamino on Sunday to see if it's as good as advertised here. Just checked their website and the order status is still "awaiting fulfillment," so they're not exactly rushing to get it into my mailbox. "Y" are they taking so long?

Lol. They always take a few days to fill orders. Pretty sure they make that pretty clear though out the ordering process. Like it was said before, once they ship, it arrives very fast. Waiting a week from a order to be delivered isn't bad. Now, ordering from ahlusions & waiting 3-4weeks to get a order is pretty ridiculous.

Something that's impressive is being able to get the 70ml sampler for $90. 4/70ml bottles! That's 32¢ ml.

I'll tell ya what, for me, 70ml bottles from GL mysteriously disappear faster then any other vendors juices. Most 50ml bottles I struggle to get through & usually take a while. I can literally all day/all week vape their stuff till it's gone.

If you can't tell I'm impressed with GLV's.

They just posted on Facebook that there is a 48hrs lead time on orders. :-/
I will say this- it is worth the wait!

OK, after having officially trying the real Boba's, I can say that Vapetrik's Dorky Stud is very similar - not as smooth, maybe less chocolate/raisin, but there's hope with Rip's new formula. Will report after it gets here. If you want something *similar* try it (not exact, but similar flavor profile.)

Wyett - have you tried the new Dorky Stud? I have some coming . . . want to know about the sweetness and gunk.

No, not yet, but I will. I just ordered the 4/70ml sampler from GL. Heck of a deal. Guess it will probably be a month till then.

I went through 60ml of DS real fast though!

Been thinking of ordering their zombie blood from GLV. I had a previous order form them with the large sampler pack and was not all that impressed but taste is very subjective as we all know. Also waiting on a few form vapetrik, not DS though, I am not a huge tobacco fan. So after typing all that I realize that my post is pretty irrelevant to the topic....LOL

So I just got my El Kamino in. I've never purchased from Good Life before so I am not sure if it's recommended to steep. Either way, I've been dripping into my freshly cleaned Cisco atty and I really like it. To me, El Kamino is not better than Boba's, but it is really good. A lighter version of Ooorah! or Captain Ooorah! from Indigo is what this reminds me of, and that's fine with me.

Op, thanks for the recommendation, I'm really glad I ordered this juice...it's a very satisfying vape! I will definitely be ordering more of it and adding it to my bacco rotation. Going to fill up the Zen carto with this in a bit...screw steeping it!

Boba's straight from the mail truck, on a clean Cisco atty, was just...wow, for me. Two full tanks of it through my Zen carto and I'm now placing it into drip duty until I can get 100mls. Then Boba's is back in the tank.

I have had all I can stand of banging my head against the wall trying to buy juice from Alienvisions.
EUREKA!! I have FOUND it!!
A better juice-very similar (clone,perhaps?),but in this humble reporters opinion,better than Boba's bounty. And here's the good part-when I want to buy some-they will SELL IT TO ME!!! Who'da thunk it??!!
It's called "El Kamino" from the nice folks at Good Life Vapor.

El Kamino - Good Life Vapor

Happy vaping!!

With all the issues surrounding AVE, I'm glad to see some folks coming out to share their likes for substitutes. I was lucky enough to get a bottle, my first ever bottle, of BB yesterday, so I'll be looking to pick up some of this to do a comparison.

Based on this thread, last night I ordered some El Kamino. Then I come back to the e-liquid forums, hit refresh, and right at the top is a post that AVE is up and running. So, I check it out, and sure enough I manage to snag some BB to go with my El Kamino. :laugh:
you and I both Vang! Bobas is a good vape, not my favorite, but on the occasion I do cravd it. The 30ml bottle I just bought will probably last me 2 months. Im real anxious to try this El Kamino that is in route to my house.
