I checked that bigbox place. A drop-ship 'company'...not interested>very bad experience with those places and shipping is $8.50 with 1-3wk wait. Nope! Altsmoke is $6 priority USPS and was recommended. Thanks RadicalJD for the other advice about how to save though. I intend to ask Altsm before making the order.

I hadn't thoroughly researched that company, but you are right. The price seems too good to be true.

I got my Joye eGo kit from NicotineNirvana.com, a very reputable company, and all prices there are with free shipping. I've ordered from them several times, and each time I got my order very quickly... like 2-3 days.

Right now they have a 10% coupon code: gglego10

If you shop around, you might find a better price, but you'll never find better service.

Anyway.....I plan to order an starter eGo kit from Altsmoke site. There is a box about entering a coupon for a discount I guess, where might those be...

Altsmoke will give you 10% off your first order if you enter "firstorder" as the discount code.

Enjoy.

I asked Altsmke about what the carts were, flavor/N-level? They responded pretty quickly telling me the carts were empty, but they usually 'threw in' a 5ml bottle of menthol flavor. Menthol makes me ill. Apparently I can't get what I want with them so they're Out!
Ordered Joye eGo Dual kit with 30ml Perique liquid. Used coupon....thanks for that!
Free shipping is good too. They are in NV so it shouldn't be too long a wait.

NOW: I intend to send back the direct e-cig kit, just to cut any future losses. So far only 2 of 8 carts have worked fairly well but that's not good enough. Too frustrating. Any special precautions I should take sending their kit back?

I would also recommend a 510 or an eGo. I personally would recommend getting an eGo. I started with the 510 and the battery life compared to the eGo is really a huge difference. The 510 last about 3 vape sessions for me the eGo lasts me until the next day.

You won't regret getting the eGo... Welcome to the club

I have ordered from Altsmoke a couple times, and I highly recommend them. I wouldn't worry about the menthol juice, you don't have to use it, and this is still a great price. You can always add a bottle or two of juice (which you should do anyway), and if that juice puts you over $85, you get free shipping (which is incredibly fast in my experience). You can also use the "firstorder" code and get 10% off, as I believe someone else also mentioned.

Also, I really like their altliquid. They also have very good cartomizers if you want to go that route for convenience.

I ordered this free trial as well when I 1st started didnt catch the fine print good thing when it showed up it didnt work at all I called them and they sent me a new part but while I was waiting for it I found this site and awesomevapor.com between the 2 and finding out about the reoccuring charge I shipped it back they will still charge you for the used carts that they sent when I sent mine I paid an extra 42 at the post office to get signature notification you also have to call and get a return # from them or it will get lost because they wont know who it came from.

Received order from NN this morning. So, this is how e-cigs are supposed to work? Question: carts came in sealed bag that has 'condensation' inside. That isn't from a nicotine liquid, right? Must add some drops to the cart, right? I think that's right.
NN sent fast! Very impressed with that service! Ordered the 23rd, sent the 24th, re'cd the 26th.

I ordered the joye 510 from ecigg.org for $39.99, which included 2 manual batteries, 2 atomizers, 5 pre-filled cart., wall charger and instruction booklet. Shipping was FREE. Ordered on Friday - Aug. 21, received - Tuesday - Aug. 24th - very fast shipping. I mistakenly ordered the automatic batteries and emailed them to change my order. They emailed me back within an hour and said that was not a problem and sent me the manual ones. Definetly a great company to order from. This was my 1st time ordering e-cigs and it was a very pleasant experience.

New member here. Howdy from Texas. I do have a starter kit from direct e-cig. Actually I ordered two sets, one for myself and one for DH. I did read the fine print and cancelled his within time limit. I kept one set, but when I went to cancel further shipments of cartridges, the "savings plan", they refunded the full amount for the starter kit. (I was never charged for DH's kit other than the start up 7.95 shipping) I hope their mistake is my gain.

Anyway I did order three atomizers from them and some blank cartridges and a bottle of juice.

That was right before I found this great forum.

So I now have ordered received, from awesomevapor.com the e-go starter kit and DH and I are using the two batteries and atomizers included with the kit. After using the real thing DH had me order the 801 starter set from "awesome". I like the activation button but he doesn't.

Also ordered more juices and three sampler kits. Awesome has a sale going on right now.

My main questions is.... does anyone know what the direct e-cig set is equivalent to, i.e., compatible battery, atomizer, cartridges.... if at all?

Thanks in advance and I'm really glad to be here.
