Personally I wouldnt get them from madvapes though. I know that really they are the same thing as the ones from CCV and Hoosier but for some reason the ones from madvapes seem to have quite a few DOAs. I don't know if it was just an isolated incident or a few bad batches but I got a 5-pack of them from madvapes and 3 out of 5 were DOA. My buddy also bought some from madvapes about a week after I did and one box had 4 out of 5 DOA and the other had 3 out of 5 DOA. I also read reviews from other people that said they got a bunch of DOAs too. They might be fine now though, but I'm not sure bc I won't get them from there again. so that is something to keep in mind.
I've bought about 20 5-packs of the Ressurectors from CCV and have never had one DOA. About 2 weeks ago I did get a 15-pack and one of the boxes had 2 ressurectors that for some reason wouldnt wick properly. I fill them with a syringe and they were filled fully but for some reason they were acting like they were dry and just wouldnt wick right. And it was the same 80/20 juice I always use so it wasn't bc of anything like that. It obviously wasn't CCVs fault and they were just duds from the manufacturer. I called Andrew just to let him know about it and he said he had actually used one the week before that did the same thing. I didn't even ask for a replacement but the next day I got an email that he sent me another 5-pack for free. He really is an awesome guy. Some vendors do have a warranty on cartos, but it's only a DOA warranty. CCV is the only place I know that will replace them like that. Even if you use them for a few days and then have a problem, he will still replace them. Also he's one of the only vendors I know that doesn't make you send back the defective ones, which is really sweet actually. I got a bad High-drain battery for my Epower from avidvaper awhile back, and even tho it was nice that they said they would replace it, they wouldn't send me a new one until I returned the defective one. Which I know isn't a huge deal, but for something like that, I basically had to pay alittle over half the price for a new battery just to send it back. So it's def nice that CCV is like that. Andrew even knew that only 2 out of the 5 had a problem and he still sent me a whole nother 5-pack for free. That's why CCV is the only place I will buy my cartos. Yeah the shipping can take an extra day or two when he gets really backed up on orders, but I still think its well worth it. As long as you dont wait till your completely out, which you shouldn't anyway, it doesn't matter if it takes a few extra days. I order another 15-pack as soon as I only have 1 5-pack left. Then if it takes alittle longer it's okay and your not stuck. It's an awesome deal for 15 cartos and with the free syringe AND drip tip, plus free shipping, you really can't beat it.
If CCV was sold out though, I would get them from Hoosier. Brent is a really nice guy too and ships really fast.
