I just want to share my experience. I am in Singapore. I placed an order near midnight on the the 31st. I received the package on the 2nd morning. Wow. All this without paying thru my nose for DHL or FedEx. They even got the order correct. Double wow.

In comparison. I placed an order with another vendor on the 29th. The package is still in Shanghai the last I checked.

5 stars for bestecig.com.

Just tried to order from bestecig using a VISA card. Got a payment failed error twice from ctopay. Darn. Waiting to hear back from Beci regarding alternate payment methods. I'm reading lotto good comments here and the price point is great. How have the rest of you been making payments? CC, PayPal, transfers?

Paypal. He responds to emails and things in short order so you should be OK :)

My nom de plume sez it all. Completely spaced that I even had a PayPal account. Hadn't used it for over 2 years and I am after all olderthandirt...

So I resurrected the PP acct and re-ordered my goodies 'bout an hour ago. Smooth as silk w/PP so now we'll see if my experience matches that of you and others.

I just put in my order from bestecig.com, i ordered for multiple people so i ended up geting 3 dse901's, 2 of the 50 packs of cartridges, and 5 misc flavored 5-packs. i had a problem with payment for a bit but i resubmitted the payment and it went through. i got all my confermation e-mails, then i got an e-mail from them saying that payment had not been recieved. i know it had because i got an e-mail from ctopay saying it went through. i contacted beci through skype (awesome way to sort things out fast) and things were fixxed immediatly and i got an apology. im getting 3 bottles of liquid free with my order, one for the free with order thing, one for the fact that they are on holiday and my shipment will be delayed a day, and one for the payment troubles. this company is awesome, seems like they cover all the problems you have really quick then give you free stuff and an apology. i am really looking foward to my package (this is my first venture into the world of e-cigs) i can almost gaurentee i will be ordering from this company again (barring some sort of insane shipping troubles) it was a wonderful experiance and i suggest this site for anyone looking to get a 901. (cheapest place i found after a week of searching also)

p.s. can anyone tell me the advantage of using e-liquid, i dont really see the point because 50ml of liquid would cost as much as 50 filled cartridges from this site and from what ive read the carts hold about 1ml of liquid.

Glad you had a good experience with them rev!

As far as juice....carts dry up after so many puffs (pretty quickly btw). At that point, you either have to refill them with juice or ditch them. A lot of people don't even buy the prefilled carts anymore. They just get blank ones and refill them with what flavor they want. Also, they can be rinsed out and used again.

Prefilled carts are really not money savers in the end. They will never last as long as a bottle of juice. You'll see :)

Howdy Friends.

I noticed bestecig has accessories for the e-cigar, but I cannot find anything on an E-cigar (RN4062/Badda-Bing/whateverelsepeoplecallthem) itself.

I've asked bestecig if they carry it, but scrolling through the previous questions asked, someone else already asked them, and it went unanswered.

So i'll pose it to you ladies and gentlemen as well. Does bestecig.com sell the e-cigar? If not, anyone know anyplace that has them in stock?

Blessings,
Hexum

I don't understand why you guys order from China because I put a dummy order together and the shipping cost was almost $20 and that basically almost wiped out all my savings if I just would have ordered in the US. I don't get it.

Typically the only reason I'll buy from China is if I need a large shipment "guaranteed". Things sell out stateside so quick that if I need something in a pinch (within a week) I can order a bulk order from China and have it in sometimes a month before a 'local' supplier can get it back in stock.

It's a good point though - I've come down to pricing stateside shops and then doing a similar shipment from abroad and it usually comes down to the same thing.

You can burn through a cart quickly - it'll take considerably longer to burn through a bottle.

I usually buy prefilled carts only when I need some extras lying around. Buying blank carts from Beci nets you just the cart with no plug/case. The prefilled ones come with the plug/case so if you want to carry some spares you can do so in a clean, convenient manner.

I may get a slap in the chops but:

There are a few places still on e-bay that sell them ($19.99 + $10 shipping) state side. In a pinch you can get them there. I bought two (at that price I can't complain) and I got one with a bad battery. I can live with that.

Most of the places I've purchased (smokesafe.com, puresmoker, etc.) are out of them at the moment.
