Still no Capella's. :facepalm: Gotta love Priority Mail - I have received two packages from other places that I ordered after this order that arrived by First Class. Hopefully tomorrow.

It seems to take forever for a Capella order to process thru the California branch. Once it gets out of there, you'll have it 2nd day. At least that's how it's been for both of my orders. When I give up hope of it arriving for another few days, bammm! It's at my door.

Yes it does... its been there traipsing slowly through the California cities for 4 days...lol :blink: Thanks for the affirmation about how this normally goes. I had no choice in the drop down but Priority since I bought 12 bottles. Its ok I've just never had Priority take a week even allowing one day for the holiday Monday. I'm sure its worth the wait.

If I recall correctly you can do 1st class with 12 bottles but since they changed the site it's a bit difficult to get to. I had to click on a couple of things before it gave me the option.

Sorry it's taking so long to get to you. After all you've been through I sure hope you LOVE them. :)

Just to let you guys know. 1st class is technically only up to 13oz. 13oz and over is automatically priority mail. Now I know I've gotten packages from vendors sent 1st class that were over the weight limit. I consider myself lucky. It all depends on who's working in the PO that day and what kind of mood they're in. I have been able to send out overweight packages 1st class successfully-but there are days the carrier shows up with returned packages in hand because they need to go priority. It's a gamble. But I'm just letting you all know, cause if you're anxious to get your stuff-you could be delaying yourself unintentionally by choosing 1st class when the weight would dictate priority. If you do it, hopefully you get lucky-but you also could face an unexpected delay.

+1 .Your exactly right . I mentioned this before in a recent post . I ship 30+ packages a week and sometimes my first class will go through when slightly over and sometimes they wont but it is a 13oz limit . 12 bottles is right up there at that limit .

I still have a postal scale because I used to do some mailing and yes I really didn't question it because I figured it was over the 13 oz. or they didn't want to stuff 12 bottles into a small mailer. Honestly, I don't even know anymore how a business or someone who mails alot of packages could get away with pushing the limits of first class anymore . Unless you do it at the post office which is even worse, when you buy shipping labels you have to enter the exact weight. If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure you are supposed to declare an item as liquid and its supposed to be mailed a certain way- like a box.

I figure it will either be here tomorrow or Saturday. And yes I will give my impressions on these flavors I have some recipes all ready to go---it better be the nectar of the Gods at this point....lol

I mail everything through paypal shipping and the mail lady just picks up all my packages . I mail 14-15oz packages by first class all the time and maybe 1 in 100 get returned . Theres always one person in a sort facility thats strict on weight but for the most part they dont care . They usually dont make is a issue over slight miscalculations for the most part since were talking about ounces . As for lbs theres no mistaking that . You dont have to state whether its a liquid or not . Theres not even a option to declare that with online shipping . The reason they ask is just to better handle your package same as marking it fragile . Doesnt make a difference really since they handle fragile package like regular packages anyway .

My Capella orders usually take about 5 days to receive and im sure you will love them .They are FAR superior to any other flavorings . Thats my opinion << before all the TPA fanboys crucify me lol . You know what they say .

They probably don't send it back to you because its under a pound. If it was at a pound or more they'd be making your customers pay the postage as postage due. I notice they tend to be kinder to pay pal users about stuff like this which is a good thing . TPA fanboys.....lol...no comment

Found that mix in the recipe section from Prettycat191:
5% TPA Coffee (I didn't use the clear coffee, not sure if it will make a difference or not)
5% Lorann Caramel
5% TPA Double Chocolate
2% Lorann Cotton Candy

I use all Capellas flavor, and use espresso,the cotton candy (from TFA), Let it rest for 4 days, holy sweet mother of God! I just found my morning vape, will mix a big batch tonight!

Icebob did you ever imagine this thread would get this huge when you started it? Maybe its the wild surge of orders for Capella's due to this thread that made them reevaluate the deal :drool::rolleyes::laugh:

Hey I'm in the four digits now...woot woot

What are you doing posting...you're suppose to be making mixes!! We're anxiously awaiting your response to the flavorings you bought. LOL
