I agree with Scottitude on this. We all know about 'growing pains' but it is not what happens that defines you, it is how you handle it that does. all companies should have a standard operating procedure.. When they find a 'kink' in the process, you don't shoot the messenger, you use it as valuable info on how to 'fix' the problem going forward.
I also want to commend the op on reporting this problem....just another example of 'how you handle a given problem'. He could just as easily NOT said anything at all. Think about it.
my 2 cents.

ps lowboy...I personally am sorry that happened to you. I had a rough start myself, but choose to rise above it. Everyone has different experiences and should never be 'flogged' for reporting their experience.

I have ordered from them just recently and again the juice was not like the first sample I got.
My son swears by them and he told me it taste like crap. He was shocked it came from FSUSA.
I got some juice from another vaper here and guess what I like one of them, so far as I have not tried all I got, and it was from FSUSA.
I will probable buy it in the near future.
I will say that my patience is growing thin.
Did I call or e-mail them this last time? No
No since in it.
I will play around with it till I get it to vapablity(new word)........LOL

hold on a sec, I remember that conversation well, and it certainly wasn't rude or anything of the like. The conversation lasted over 5 minutes with both me apologizing for the error, offering to pay the expense for the return shipping and extra store credit for the time involved. I also mentioned sending me an email so i can check up on the original order status and the credit card payment to make sure there was no second charge.
I took the last 24 hours off to be with family or I would have replied to this sooner.
Never was I anything but polite and helpful in the entire conversation on the phone.

Samples are already ready to vape. All other bottles are mixed after the order is placed. Uncap the bottle (including the tip) and let it air over night. The next day, cap it, shake it well, and then it steep for at least a week. Hope this helps! :)

Awww :( really, really sorry to hear that Vaporgal .... I honestly know what you guys are going through... I just hope 'Squishy' will be fine!! I pray to the doggie gods and hopefully they'll hear it! As long as he eats and is energetic I think you are alright. It's great you guys take good care of Squishy!!

My 'Lady' died on the way to the Animal Hospital in my Parent's arms...It was painful.. Most important thing you can do is make sure your dog is not in pain.. I know Lady is looking down at me and she's fine up there. Anyways, enough sad talk!

Here's a Bull Terrier:

They are just like Pit Bulls in regards to their characters, as strong and just as loyal,friendly, and loving. They're a little smaller & might look ugly to some, but I think they're quite unique. God I love dogs.. :)

MachoKing: :thumbs:

Thanks for praying to the doggie gods. I let Squishy know and he barked a friendly "thank you." :) Thanks for posting a picture of a Bull Terrier. If their character is like a Pit Bull, I would definitely love this dog. I think he's cute!

I love dogs too. :)

First bottle a month and finally gave it to my mom-in-law.
She'll vape anything......LOL
She has smoked for 50 years or more. She has no taste buds..........LOL
This bottle I have already made it better by adding a little flavor and letting it steep some more.
I'll let it steep a little longer.
I believe it will turn out okay. When I got it it had a real bad pg taste.
I generally vape more vg then pg. I found that if it has over 50% pg it makes my chest tight and I cough a lot.
The last bottle was 50/50.

By the way I have tried to make this and even bought from other vendors. Not found anything like the first sample I got from FSUSA,
I WILL NOT GIVE UP.

I typically vape 50/50. I've never had a bottle taste like it had too much pg, but I also shake them very well (I'm sure you tried that). I'm glad that adding a little flavor helped. Just keep checking the bottle to see if the liquid is changing colors (should be, unless it's a clear liquid like peach).

I'm glad you're not giving up. :)

Ok, well first things first, I was in the car driving when my wife talked to you. The conversation lasted a minute at the most. You mentioned something about crediting the shipping expense back, however my wife failed to mention the store credit. Never said you were impolite, but you certainly were not a shining example of friendliness. Regardless of whether or not you would credit the shipping expense back, the issue or problem we face is this; Her father in law should not have to go to the post office, wait in line, buy stamps, an envelope and gas to correct your error.

As I have written multiple times, please send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the shipping address and he'll gladly send the duplicate order back.

Lastly, and again this might sound cocky, neither my wife nor me should have to follow up about this. You want the order back then please call us or contact us via email. We have better things to do then to correct your error.

So yeh, I've never said you were impolite, but the first thing I heard even while driving through my wife's phone was: "Please send it back", only after my wife mentioned that it was a present to her dad who lived in a different state is when you said you would reimburse for the shipping.

Actually I just talked to my wife and that is what she said you said:"Email me and if your dad needs me to I will send him $5". There was no mention of store credit at any point. I also clearly remember the conversation lasting less than 45 seconds and wife says the same.

Regardless, I've said my piece. Both my wife and I are over it. FSUSA can either send her dad a self-addressed stamped envelope or charge her card again. I am done with this issue and just want everyone to enjoy themselves.

I will say this though, instead of making us, the customer 'pay' for FSUSA's mistake, I would look into who was working that day, who send out the duplicate order, how that is even possible, and have a word with said employee. That would have been the easiest, most stress free solution for everyone.

David, we have nothing against you or your company, FSUSA plays obviously a big part in the vaping world, and you guys over there are doing a great job. Everybody makes mistakes; we are not perfect. That being said, we wish you all the best and you can be sure her dad will order more from you guys again. Especially now that he thinks you guys let him keep the duplicate order because you are such a great customer oriented company!

Go Duke!

By all means let him keep it. No harm no foul. My chief concern was in the making sure there were not two billings for the order itself. As long as he is happy with the juices he received that is far more important to Pamela and I then the money. All things considered hopefully he will fall in love with the juices and we will have a long and happy time together vaping away...

Knowing my father in law he will be impressed indeed with the way it was handled, and will be for sure a long time customer.
I retract anything negative I have said about FSUSA, and wish I had not posted at all. So now that we're all happy this post can be closed or deleted.

PS. My father in law loved the Fat Tire sampler and we will be ordering a 60ml for him here very soon. (Just please don't send it twice again.. xD ). I might have to try some of your juices as well. I've had your Cherry Tobacco and it was just as good as BWB's Cherry Tobacco.

David, I wish you a nice day and hope you don't think of me as a PITA. You did nothing wrong; on the other hand my expectations as customer might be too high.
