last week i had to contact brent from hoosier ecigs because i got a doa battery in the mail. it wouldnt fire or anything. he contacted me back saying he was going to send me a new one no problem. i shipped out a few minutes later. it turns out it ended up getting "delivered" at the sorting center in greensburg, indiana and is not going anywhere else because its status was put to "delivered" thats at least four and a half to five hours away from me. how is that considered delivered? by the way it got shipped on the 28 with 1-3 day delivery and it is now the 3rd. very unhappy with my experiences with hoosier already. i hope this gets remedied because they arent very far away from where i live but still. long shipping times and then not even getting delivered is a huge problem for me because my auto battery just died finally and there is nowhere around here that i can go pick up a 510 battery. so all because something wasnt done right i'm stuck without vaping at all until somone fixes this.

COntact hoosier and get the shipping details then contact the postal service (or whatever shipping service they used) and file a complaint. THis sounds like a failure of the shipper.

As for the 510 battery. It is expensive but if you can find a blu battery they are 510. (Try walmart or wallgreens, I am sure there are others too ). The Blu IS 510. Not that blu is great stuff but it would solve the immediate crises.

Hoosier doesn't have control over the Post Office. Post Office seems to be playing games lately. I had a package leave Oakland, CA on 5/25 to me in Kansas City. As of this morning it still shows in transit. Last month Post Office ran a package to me from Arizona thru Calif, to Ohio, then Iowa and finally Kansas City. No wonder the PO is losing money.

I didnt know that blu's were 510s. thats actually very good to know. one question though lol, i only have a kanger pro tank at the moment. all of my cartos are burnt up and i dont have any atty's, do you think the protank would still work on a stick battery?

It will look silly, and the battery life won't be great, but it should work just fine.

This is unfortunately very true. They won't look good and you will be charging them constantly but it is an option to keep you off the stinkies until your other order is sorted out.

I am not sure how blu works it I suspect you will have to buy one of their startup kits in which case you will get a few of their cartos with it. That might help a little.

My experience with USPS is that they are very poor at updating their tracking info. You will most likely get the package before it even updates again.

Same here. The order I received last Friday said it was still in Tampa when my carrier actually put it in the box. About 4 hours later 2 more entries + the 'delivered' entry appeared on the tracking site.
