BLU is actually the most expensive e-cig available!!

[palermo45]

So, you have been to the BLU web site and think you are getting a great price! Well, if you were getting your order within 4 days or so, you would be getting a good price! The problem is that people are now receiving their BLU kits in about 30 days!!

Think about this for a minute!! If you are actually quitting cigarettes or slowing down, how much extra money do you spend on regular cigarattes while waiting for your BLU?? If someone spends say $75 BUT you get your kit in 4 days, that is 4 days you are spending $5 a pack. If you have to wait 30 days (BLU), that is an extra 26 days you are having to buy regular cigarettes!! If you are a pack a day smoker, that extra time you are having to wait for your BLU is actually costing you $130 extra in cigarettes!!!

If you look at things from that perspective, your BLU starter kit is costing you closer to $190!!! Now, how many people would purchase BLU for $190?? That is the true pricing!!!

SO, is it really worth it to wait 30 days for BLU just because you are saving $5-$20 on the kit???

I ordered mine the 25th of May. It took about 3 1/2 weeks to get to me. So far, I can tell you the charging indicator lights don't exactly work like the directions or the video says. The carts don't last as long, and are very small. Actually from my experience all their numbers seem to be off. I've contacted their online support 3 or 4 times. Atty went bad, been waiting over a week for a replacement. Today a battery went bad. It won't fire up the atty even though the chargers say it's fully charged. Then the thing turns on by itself without an atty attached. The online support wants me to send it back, it's already in an envelope for tomarrow's mail. It seemed like a good set-up, and I really do like it, but, it definately needs to be refined for good consistant use. Nice PPC though, size of a pack of Camels. Charges a battery, hold a complete e-cig, 4 carts and an atty. I had read somewhere here in the forum that they were rebranded e-cigs. I'd like to know who's. Ordered a 510 today with two manual batteries. Just like Christmas, I can't wait for it to arrive.

WOW!! Talk about a bad experience!! If I were you, I would contact them right away and demand a full refund! Why let them keep your money for such a crappy product?? If enough people cancel their orders or get refunds, BLU will either get their act together or go belly up. Good luck!!

The blu is the dse 084 and can be bought several places..........I've got an 084 coming (a gift)and will compare it to 510 pcc and all in a couple days. I do however have absolutely no complaints with the 510.

BLU is not a DSE 084, it is a L88b

when I googled l88....some supplier had it listed l88/dse084 so I assumed it was the same

 

[chrisl317]

They are also J108's

 

[Nikko Daniels]

They are also J108's

Nope. J108's are a bit longer

kaeo773 was right. Blu seems to be an L88

 

[Burnie]

From what I understand the number is the length.
084 or 8084 = 84mm long (have one of these, smaller than Blu)
L88B or Blu = 88mm long
J108 = 108mm long
etc.

Here is a link you might be interested in. I know nothing about them except that it does look like a Blu, I ordered one yesterday.

Blu absolutely is an L88B. The link provided above my response is where I ordered too. Talked to their CS and they verified they are the exact same model from the exact same manufacturer. Blu just brands theirs.

If you do a google on L88B, you will see a lot of other asian distributors branding them for sale in the US looking for some one interested in being a seller. It would be nice if some one did, some of them have some really cool branding on the e-packs.

 

[Krakkan]

It is a L88B for sure.

No one should ever order from Blu, took over a month to get mine and ive had nothing but problems with it. They told me i would have to go to the bottom of the shipping list if i sent back the faulty batteries and atomizers for new ones. Blu is a company with a good idea, cheap product and terrible ability to handle the business generated by their own advertising. All in all i give the blu e cig a 2 out of 10........... very poor indeed.

 

[AmplexorJ]

HOLY PCC VAPEMAN !!! The Blu really is a L88.... Thats crazy!!!! I Hate my Blu.

Waiting for a Response from the RETURNS Dept. Stupid Blu.

 

[speedpicker88]

im just glad I cancelled my order before it was too late

 

[THeGAMe]

Stumbled across this post and just want to let people know that I got mine in 4 days, and the carts I ordered a got here the same day. I got the Black, but the white is on back order now.

You guys on the boards probibly caused a mad rush for these things and they needed some time to catch up, lol..

 

[angelique510]

I have no complaints with blu. The shipping is a little slow, but I love the product.

Blu is cute and a nice idea and has a handy PCC. I got my order within 5 days of ordering (despite the website saying the black kit was on backorder). However, I've had a lot of problems. Batteries do activate now and then on their own (but so did my auto 510s, I have since switched to manual only!), PCC doesn't seem to be charging batts unless it's continuously plugged into the USB cable. Wall adapter for USB cable (for PCC) makes a high pitched whine when plugged in. Makes me worry it's gonna blow up or something!

Anyway, I bought a blu for a friend before realizing that tho it's cute there are more satisfying PVs. The other 2-3 ppl I have "converted" from smoking to vaping are using 510s. Blu just doesn't cut it.

Yeah, I think they should lower the price a bit. But it's totally sweet looking so that makes up for it!
