haha....so i ended up being the bad guy??

I also deal with lotsa china suppliers....I'm Chinese by race but not Chinese by nationality....Probably my great grandparents were...

Unless you had access to a good source to begin with, I'm guessing that you faced your fair share of troubles until you found the right people to buy from, rite?

Anyway, glad that this question is out in the open....now its up to you big guys to protect us...LOL

Well, i definitely would not view it as seriously as you do...China invasion or not, these products are manufactured and invented by the Chinese anyway. So without them, we would not be e-smoking now...

For me, I just do not want to be tricked as a consumer and I also do not want the credibility of this forum to be jeapordised...

Anyone can come and state that they are manufacturers but they must back it up. How? Thats a question i'm not smart enough to answer...

If they are really a manufacturer, they can provide us with valuable information if they are willing. I believe free competition is allowed and so at the end of the day, consumers like us benefit. Forums like this are created for the user rite?

bottom line, no one likes to be ripped off and no one likes unfair competition....

Theres no reason why people can't just ignore links in signatures its not hard! The forum still is a relaxed place with firm rules and is very useful indeed. Why fix something that is not broken

Ohh and damn!!!! I was hoping for a bit of Trog V Kate but it seems to have died down! I wonder if theres any fights on TV....
 
Well i guess that this thread has basically boiled down to to three issues:

1) Packaging:
OEM hardware for computers has been a staple for years - essentially, experienced users/IT professionals buy the same product in a plain cardboard box with no glossy paperwork. (Although i freely admit to being enchanted by the first time I recieve a new e-cig in the mail in its glossy box :) OEM e-cigs can't be too far away...

2) Self Promotion
I recently made an order for a backup dse901 from puresmoker.com solely because his behaviour on the board impressed me so much. It could be argued ( although I am NOT ) that his participation, let alone signature, is self promotion and that Steve is a soulless paragon of capatalism run amock. Sadly, it is virtually impossible to tell which users are just corporate shills (although when reading some posts I have more then my fair share of suspicions). Perhaps threads such as this should be turned into a poll in the requests/idea section?

3) Can you catch the flu online?
No. But you can certainly lose several points of IQ watching Mrs Palin's csmpaign speaches on youtube...

Also - note to self. Get smaller fingers or a larger iphone. My apologies for the typos and lack of quotes. My sausage fingers aren't up to the task most nights. Hooray for auto-correct!
