he said no one was auth'd for pre-orders yet but I am not sure when that was posted to FB. It was in the pulse thread here or over on VU, not sure. I can't really tell you what to do, I have never ordered from vapesourcing (no more china orders for me, ever) but I would assume your money is safe. I will be waiting to order a pulse from a usa vendor until well after I have seen multiple reviews on youtube and the forums
