DONE!
Finally committing to our first big purchase of vapey stuff. Yay! After hundreds of Youtube videos, much envy of mods and fancy stuff I don't understand, a ton of feedback from the people of this forum, and touching things in stores and them being mad that I'm not going to buy their overpriced junk, we have the winnars! (Note: I've purchased three Tsunami's already, and had terrible results detailed in another thread, so this isn't my -first- vape, it's my first -big- purchase...as in, 200+ bucks for two full vapes and accessories.)
I will be buying an MVP 2.0 with an Aspire nautilus mini and/or regular tank, and for the man, he will get an iTaste 134 with a Kanger Protank 3 or a Hypertank, depending on what site I can buy the most things on...lol
So, with that, comes the 20 different sites that have all the different things, and the many different price points. So I figure I'll just throw out some sites with the product and price, and I'm asking ya'll if you could let me know your experience with them and what sounds like the best deal. Also, I don't think I can post URLs so I'll just be as specific as possible so no one has to go on a scavenger hunt.
Also, as a bonus discussion, if you feel so inclined... What is, in your opinion, the best menthol flavor e-juice, and where can I find it? (side question, what does Mother's Milk taste like? lol)
MVP 2.0:
- 101vape - $39.99 (kit) - No refunds except for 48 hour DoA/defect return policy with strict wording about no refunds for used merch...(how do I test it is I can't use it...)
- MadVapes - $57.95 (kit with an extra iClear tank) - No refunds except for DoA/defect within 14 days.
- CompleteVape - $44.89 (kit) - 30 day return window.
- VapingMe - $39.99 (kit) - 24 hour DoA refund policy.
- JKVapes - $69.99 (kit, free 10 ml of e-juice) - 14 day exchange period for DoA/defective items, no refunds unless item is unavailable.
[*]iTaste 134:
- MadVapes - $129 (no battery, no beauty ring)
- CompleteVape - $134 (kit, no battery)
- MyVaporStore - $145.32 (kit, no battery) - 72 hour exchange period for DoA/defective items.
- Misthub - $128.99 (kit, free battery) (BONUS! Possible 5% off by following social sites) - 30 day exchange.
- FastTech - $107.26 (kit, no battery) - 30 day money back guarantee, 6 month exchange period for defective items (this is seriously too good to be true)
Tanks:
FastTech has tanks at half to a 1/3 lower price than the rest of the sites, but it's all shown without the real packaging, leading me to think it's fake...especially considering every single product says GENUINE!!1112121... (little exaggeration, but still...)- CravingVapor -
Nautilus reg: 29.99, Protank 3: 20.99 - 21 day return policy, lacking detail and terms. - 101Vape -
Nautilus reg: 22.99, Mini: 24.99 - VapingMe - Protank 3: 14.99,
Nautilus mini: 28.99 - JKVapes -
Nautilus V2(?): 35.99, Protank 3: 19.99 - MyVaporStore -
Nautilus reg: 29.95, Protank 3: 17.96 - MistHub -
Nautilus BVC mini: 35.95, Protank 3: 19.99 ViperVape - Hypertank - 17.99 (seems really hard to find)
Now, the reason why I'm so specific about the return policy is me and my guy have had terrible luck with three defective Tsunami products, both batteries and tanks, and I think someone's putting ladders over top of us while we sleep or something...so yeah, reliable returns and good customer service is a necessity to avoid more headache.
So yeah, any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance! ^^
Update:
Aspire Nautilus BVC Mini, GOT! $19.99
iTaste 134, GOT! $139.95 with battery, charger, AND free 10 ml e-juice!
Aspire Nautilus, GOT! Overpaid. D: However, with 20% off, free shipping, the 134, and some e-juice on the side, it was freeeee!
MVP 2.0 Energy Edition, Petals, GOT! $48 including shipping! (Considering the cost of skins and separate shipping, I'ma say I did gud)
Protank 3, GOT! $14.99.
And so, this completes my search for vendors and my first big purchase. 5 sites, a little over 300 bucks, and we should be set for the next 6 months! ...yeah, probably not, but a girl can hope.
Thanks everyone for your feedback and advice! ^^
