:laugh: Don`t think they could be any worse than usual george :) Just that one liquid, seemed to taste bloody rank, It was the last bit in a 10 ml bottle, so it just got binned !

I think if you leave it in the bottle too long they tend to go off, remember Trish had a couple like that, that she ended up binning

My order turned up today, and guess what ? They got it bleeding wrong AGAIN :mad: I ordered 30 ml of SG`s captain custard, which i got, and 30 ml of SG`s ry, and they only sent me 10 ml !!!

This is the 3rd or 4th time they have cocked my orders up now, and i am getting seriously Hacked off with them My last order was 10 ml short, and they never even replied to my e-mail :mad:

I tried phoning them before ( no answer ) so i left a message, i have also sent them a strongly worded e-mail, as i am getting sick and tired with them now !

How the hell can they keep messing up like this ? It`s their last chance with me now !

You really don't have much luck with Chefs, I know Trish has had the odd wrong order, don't think I've had any.

Just a quick heads up, I've spent all afternoon trying to coil an orchid up

with the wire I've just had from FT, the 2.2ohm coil should have been 9 wraps of 30ga

but were reading 0.06 ohms, yet the 1.8 ohm premades were reading bob on

so I dont know what they've sent me but it aint 30ga kanthal

EDIT
Does anyone have a link for a kanthal supply in the UK ? TIA

Comes with a build on it Sarah.
Not a great one,but it works.Does a lot of popping.
Ahhh good to know. Ill prolly recoil once it goes bad. Im usually ok with pre built coils :D

You'll still have to build a coil for the Lemo, but their really easy to work with. It does come with a coil and wick already in there, but I always build my own anyway.

For work, I have to have a combo that won't leak (cos I put it in my shirt pocket). It has to be able to stand up to plenty of bumps and knocks - I'm a bus driver, most of the routes I do have a lot of speed bumps :)

8am our time, when you posted. So I guess you're 8 hours in front or 16 hours behind, depending what day it is there Sarah :laugh:
Yep i just saw a recoil for the lemo. Looks fairly easy. I hope i dont get jittery hands like i use to do when it comes to coiling LOL! I dont even own a jig. I use my hubby's small screwdriver hehe! 8 Hours ahead indeed! ;)

As George has said it comes ready to vape, and built to about 1.2 ohms, I think you only get the pop when the coil is cold, once it has warmed up it seems okay and they are the easiest ones so far to build on, when you get round to rebuilding it just make sure you put quite a bit of cotton/rayon in the coil and they like big builds 3mm - 3.5mm diameter, the Lemo comes with 5 extra balls of cotton and extra wire as well, not sure if the same applies to the smaller Drop

Sounds like you are on the same time as HK as your post marked as 08:00 here, so we are 8 hours behind you, we are only ahead of the Americas, everywhere else in the world is ahead of us (time starts here :laugh:)
Thanks for the clarification! :D I can't wait for my lemo now haha! But i heard the cotton balls that comes in the box are not too good. Actually what is good =x i mean there is so many different kind of cottons nowadays.

Lol ahead or behind it dont matter. Like right now its almost 1am and im online reading your messages hehehe!! Anyway i've only been to the UK once. I loved it there. Sure hope to reach there again someday. Probably when i manage to stash some cash instead of spending them >.<

You are 8 hours ahead of us, so where we're currently (as I write) 11.42am on Saturday, you're at early evening 19.42pm on Saturday.
Yeah 8 hours indeed haha. Its a weekend anyways, so im up till late :3

Felt a bit left out on the vapemail front yesterday :(
Just arrived, so i'm counting this.
That looks so mean but prolly wont go pass through my customs LMAO! They dont have fancy torches like that in malaysia :( If there were, it would be probably a good RM80 and above. About 14-15 pounds in your currency. Makes no sense -_- How much was that for yah :)

well good luck in getting a reply - I've sent a query off to Greenleaf about the upgrade for the T8 they keep promising, and another to Pioneer4You about how to use the upgrade that they have published and my thoughts about the non-magnetic battery door/missing spare screws etc.

You answered it for me Bob in your post :D

This never used to happen bob, and i am well and truly cheesed off with them now ! To date, i am 30 ml short on my last 2 orders, and they don`t even seem to be replying to anything i have sent them :mad: I have even left a message on their FB page :(

Weird, I've not had a problem with them yet. I expect if you've left a message on their facebook they'll deal with it asap as it looks bad posted there. I would give them the benefit of the doubt for now and put it down to an honest mistake, although it's a shame they haven't replied to your messages. Maybe they'll send you some extra juice to compensate for the emotional turmoil you've been through!

Oh dear! - I've had a few wrong ones but not with size. They do always put it right though. Which email address and phone number did you use - the one on the new site?

You really don't have much luck with Chefs, I know Trish has had the odd wrong order, don't think I've had any.
My wrong ones were that I once ordered zero nicotine with one and got .6 same as the others on the order, and then got a PG/VG mix instead of the max VG I'd ordered. With the zero nicotine, I was mixing it with a percentage of NT's 18mg ones, and with the PG/VG, obviously, that would have seriously affected my breathing - so in both cases, it needed the queries confirming and the replacements were sent quickly and in larger bottles to compensate.
I sent the PG/VG Doughnut one to Bob, and used the .6 nicotine mixed 50/50 with an extra bottle of zero that they sent me.

They do sometimes post on this site, and no doubt you can send PM's through there too: Chefs Vapour News and Updates | ALL ABOUT E-CIGARETTES UK

Yes i did george, and i may be getting in touch with them if it doesn`t get sorted out sharpish.

Well i ain`t chasing round different forums looking for them trish, but thanks anyway. The last time it could have been before they moved, but even so their e-mail address wouldn`t have changed, so they should have still got the message.

This time, i have sent them an e-mail from my phone, one through their site, left a message on their voicemail, and on their facebook page ! I did get an e-mail back from them a couple of hours ago, but it only says your e-mail has been received and will be dealt with quickly. I think they are having a laugh there !!

As adam says, posting on their FB page should get them moving, but nothing as yet.

I`m not sure i would dispute it just yet george, and give them till monday to respond properly :) You are correct though regarding pp, they have helped me in the past with various vendors !
