Electronic cigarette commercial on TV in Canada

[VapourGuy]

I was just watching Fox 29 and a commercial came on for a free electronic cigarette from a company called ez smoker if you buy 1 pack of carts (15) at $69.00and pay shipping and handling. Although I'm pretty sure the offer is for America only I am glad to see it as it will help bring more awareness to them as being a alternative to smoking for someone that still doesn't know they exist. On the other hand most of the information on the website is very miss leading and people who take it probably won't want to chance buying another one electronic cigarette from any where. You can look at the website it is ezsmoker.com and it has the same commercial on it I believe and also all they're misleading information about the cart life and what not and I don't think they offer nicotine either so its $69.99 for probably between 5 and 10 ml of flavoured liquid. I feel bad for anyone who falls for this scam without looking around. Just thought i'd share as I found it kinda interesting to see on cable tv here even though I know theres been e-cig commercials on satellite for a while here already.

1 box of 15 refill cartridges, for only $69.95 plus $9.95 shipping and processing. That's a whole month's supply at a huge discount off the regular price.

Those must be some amazing carts for each one to last 2 days!! And with NO NICOTINE they are on sale for $70??? I wonder how much they are regular price if you end up being dumb enough to buy more. This reminds me so much of the scam that got me into vaping. Luckily I found the right path here on ECF, but I am sure others will let their dissapointment in this PV lead them back to analogs. As for awareness to PV's, it is good if it leads some people who are smart enough to do some research to some REAL vendors, but in most cases I think it is companies like these that give vaping a bad name and first time vapers a bad introduction to vaping. Hopefully someone that googles EZsmoker.com will find this thread and save themselves the money and dissapointment or an overpriced and inferior product. Thanks for posting this scam!

It's a shame that whoever buys those will think vaping is too expensive, even if they like it and it's working for them. They'll be like wtf $70 for 2-3 days vape I'd rather be smoking.. I wish a disposable e-cig company would do some TV ads, hook people up for $10

I think we should all call their 1-800 number once a day and harass them since that deal is horrendous. 1 510 style batt and charger, 1 atty, 15 carts all for $70? and they will take it upon themselves to bill your credit card once a month for $70? Imagine if they did that with the first automobiles, we would still be riding horses today.

IT'S A SCAM

Read the fine print.

The cost is 69.95 a month - every month - automatically charged to your credit card. You get 15 cartridges a month for that price.

I guess it's nice that they only offer this scam in the US. ....

Not a very good one LOL....

Who wouldn't report their credit card stolen before the next round of the rip-off, oops I mean subscription?

I'll offer someone $69.95 if they can show me how to make 15 carts last one month LOL
Fortunately these offers do tend to help us. Haven't seen ones like this for some time now, but back when I started at least, silly claims that one cartridge equals one carton were everywhere. It draws people in, they like what they find, they just don't like the price and the fact that 15 prefilled last 1 day not 1 month. Rather than giving up, they tend to look to places like this.

Thank Dog for that.
