EMS : Handed over to Customs ??

[mafig]

it maybe a very noob question.
if i'm ordered just 1 piece of PV, is it still get chance to be taxed by the custom?

hi zaff..its all legal to buy online,esp the hardware..PV ,batteries cartos or whatever..only sticking point is the e-liquids with nicotine content...but if U bring in small amount..i buy 50ml last order..no problem..i dont think U be penalised by custom..after all the postage is like a duty for custom..indirect taxes..as we all like to have the starter-kit to start off...but looking at it...U need only a few items to get U ,vaping..a battery(preferrable over 1000 mAh,passthro..u have best of both world can vape while U charge up the battery,when charged 10 hours of usage at least) 1000mAh Joye eGo-T USB battery / USB passthrough - Joye eGo-T spare parts Heaven Gifts & 1 pkt of cartomizers 5pc empty Joye eGo cartomizers! BIG SIZE! - Joye eGo cartomizer Heaven Gifts + e-liquids,dekang 30ml 30ml Dekang VG e-juice e-liquid with 17 flavors - Dekang e-juices e-liquids Heaven Gifts ..this will last me more than 3 weeks for sure..but remember it takes 2 weeks to get yr delivery from China..total cost approx $42 + postage $5..say $50 x 3= 150 rm..but u dont have any backup if yr battery failed..all the best & hope all yr items get thro like mine did..regards mafig

the above ,all U need to start vaping

Great recommendations, mafig. A good Ego style battery is one of the best choices for any beginner, and most veterans maintain at least one or two as backup. They are small, easy to use and give most vapers a good day of vaping.

You may want to try Boge 2.0 or 2.3 ohm cartomizers instead of the Joye mega cartomizers you mentioned. I've tried several of the Joye mega cartos, and I've found that although the performance is good, it tends to leak a lot and filling it is a pain with having to use a syringe. For beginners, this is not exactly ideal. The Boge cartos, are cheap, you won't mind chucking it after it gets old and most vapers who have tried them will probably tell you that they are the easiest things to use and performs very well. Just add a drip tip and filling it is even easier.

hi jacktan..trying to help zaff with his order from heaven-gifts,as all the items from there..the passthru,cartos & e-liquids..should be no problem getting them into Malaysia as e-cig is not a banned item..only e-liquids with nicotine might..but small quantity i dont think will get notice & keep his purchase within rm$150 without problem by registered airmail from China(will take 2 weeks to arrive,long wait)..yes he will need backup,add as he goes along buying online

U get to vape so much,U also get yr supply from China?..i am thinking to ask my friend from USA to bring in e-liquids & new starter kit, least problem to bring in by hand thro custom..USA is a lot cheaper than UK especially the e-juice..regards mafig

thanks for the info mafig & jacktan. i'm currently already got a 510 kit for vaping & already 3 weeks avoiding the analogs
it just i kinda poisoned with the better kit out there also looking for a better bulk price supplies (for juice, cartos & etc) as a personal stock. I'm also want to try Boge, but not yet to be found locally. Maybe I'm not searching it hard, but if fellow vapers can point out where I can get it, really appreciate it

 

[raceengine]

I'm envious of you guys who can get by with using only about 2ml of juice a day.
50ml of juice will only last me 8-10 days.
Sigh. I never leave home without at least 10 to 20ml of juice on me.

2ml??? I vape at least 5ml per day...

Congrats Zaff, on the switch to vaping. I assure you that you will feel it in the general improvement in your health in the coming months.

Boge cartos (2.3-2.4ohm version) is available locally, from a couple of sellers. I buy locally as well if I'm not getting it direct from China. I think almost every KL vaper knows you can get the Boge cartos from William from USJ or Bigvapors.com, so I guess I'm not plugging any seller. Give them a try.

650mah......very soon you will want to upgrade again.

 

[jacktan12]

Knowing mafig, who vapes only about 1 to 2 ml a day, the 650 mah should last a whole day...haha.

 

[mafig]

650mah......very soon you will want to upgrade again.

All right....passing on the vaping lifestyle....always a positive thing to do....
If you are happy with the 510T, by all means keep using it. If it meets all your requirements, there is no need to do anything about it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Most people continue to use what they are using right now until such a time that they get a chance to try something better and you feel that the performance or other benefits that come with better e-cigs far outweigh the extra cost you would have to pay for it, and you want it.

Most important.....remember that tobacco cigarettes will kill you, sooner or later. Vaping gives you back your life. Keep on vaping.

 

[vikings]

I wholeheartedly agree with Jack. Keep using your set up if you feel it works for you. There are always going to be people that will tell you that you're not really vaping unless you have this mod and that mod, and this juice or that juice.

If you've found something you like, stick to it

 

[Alvin Lim]

yep, always use only what you need and happy.

 

[abechik]

but... 'backup of the backup' is always a good thing... , i got few units of diy VV (and replacement parts always within reach) , several pair of batteries , and 500ml of ejuice ready to use... with the options of making at least another 5 liter of e juice at 12mg if need be...

i'm practically fully insured already ...

 

[raceengine]

OMG thats a lot of juice! How's your VV coming along? I might get some more 510 connectors from you. I'm already building my second evercool in a wooden box for my new homemade atty

 

[jacktan12]

Backups are always a wise thing to have. I typically maintain an extra month supply of juice and purchase another load of juice by the time I reach about 150ml to 180ml juice still in my desk drawer. Extra Ego style batteries just in case both my mods can't work for some reason. Extra batteries, charger, atties, cartos...always a good thing to have.

 

[raceengine]

That's what I love about my Omega. fires everytime with its mechanical trigger. waiting for the machine shop to finish my adapter for it so I can put a regulator in it for VV. hehe. Just received my stock of Kanthals yesterday.

If you guys ever wanted to get some I suggest getting it from jrider12 in eBay. Send my request 9 days ago and received it yesterday. That's some good service since it came all the way from the states. Tried getting some from the other seller but shipment never made it to my place. darn it. Lucky it wasn't that expensive.

VV is ...

 

[jacktan12]

VV is ...

Agree.....VV mod is the one I take out when I am not sitting in the office or at home. Dependable and tough little beast.

exactly my thinking too,beside i am an old dog(60 yrs soon)..hard to comprehend with new devices such as mods 3-6 volts of various brand needing special kind of spares and not available,locally or hard to source online..i will be looking for the commercial type e-cig, easily available with compatible accessories from China,stockists-online(HG,HC & Greenhouse1 etc).. no problem so far i encountered with my orders from China..as e-cig & accessories is not a banned or illegal & can be imported into Malaysia,unlike Singapore(really feel sorry for the Sg smokers who wish to vape,but cant import in)

amazing e-cig getting popular over here,hopefully many more join us here as we all spread the wisdom of e-cig usage to them(smokers)..at least they know there is an alternative to harmful analogs

be4 i even know about this site ECF..i bought e-cig,"e-health" but no much pleasure using it until i came to ECF and found the answers to all my e-cig requirement & know how..only than i gave up analog for good..so how U all got to know about e-cig & this site?.. when i googled "e-cig" ECF popped out..regards mafig

my 1st starter-kit...hahaha
