I like the straight ones :)

So do I - there are a lot of people who prefer the Ming vase shape that's why you always seem to see those and not many straight ones

Always hard to tell - some addresses could just be mailbox rental etc.

Quite possible

Why couldn't they just leave things to work efficiently! I hate when changes spoil something. RM used to be fairly decent - in fact, when I first started work, RM treat the post as though it was very special, and they were entrusted to take care of it until delivered. That notion has long disappeared.

There used to be a funny question that got asked in the old days, about the royal mail,
"You have an ambulance, fire engine, police car all with sirens sounding, and a mail van approaching a crossroads from different directions, which one has priority ??"

Answer the Royal Mail van - it's an offence to hold up the mail :laugh:

but to answer your comment - think it is down to the people that they employ these days - there appears to be a lot of people who don't seem to be able to do their jobs in a professional manner any more, brought about by managers who don't know how to manage people, and just pass on instructions from above, instead of questioning their masters.

I'll bare that in mind if i leave the tank empty for any prolonged time Adam.:thumb:
Both mine were quite stubborn new out of the box.So i can well imagine the problem you've mentioned.

Where I find them stubborn is the AFC - find that hard to turn to shut it before opening the filler valve.

Some clothing company - it was a woman who answered

Very strange!
Just wondered if it was a Puremist/Belfast laptop repairs type of thing.
And one hand didn't know what the other was doing.
I think certain people have viewed e-cigs as the next get rich quick scheme.You even see some addresses and it would appear someone is running a business from their own flat.

The way it appeared to me was that they didn't seem to want any communication so had the number automatically diverted to another, also weird that their email system was bouncing emails to them as Spam

well I think we know that GD and EVL probably do, the latter has just registered the name "EVL Vapors" as a business last month, based in Horsham and the address looks like his home.

If that's the case Bob.I'll give them a wide berth.
You need some form of backup/service when things go wrong.
So basically they are there to take your money and **** you if you have a problem.

I'm likeing the Kanger Ni200 coils Bob:)

Edit: I remember Vinny saying the guy couldn't give a s**t when he complained about the juice.

No problem getting through to them on FB, they answered messages on there, just not over the weekend.

The Kanger coils are lasting me quite a long time as well - in fact everything Ni-200 lasts longer than Kanthal, it helps using clear or nearly clear liquids as well as they don't gunk up the wicks as much - built one for the new Yihi in my old black Lemo 7/6 wraps 26g 3mm dia came out at 0.10 ohm exactly, filled it with some Chem Trail - very nice.

Strangely enough then the AFC on mine glides like a dream! :thumbs:

Try dropping it on the floor from a height of at least 1m and see if it helps like I managed to.

Used Vape Inc just twice. Both times items arrived fine so never had to communicate.

I saw more appear when the MOW tank appeared with the neat straight one. Rare to see the 'designer' ones that are narrow and straight.

For all it was only acrylic, I thought I'd found a lovely deep blue one at FT ...the photo was a bit misleading and I hadn't checked the size properly - only 2ml wider than I'd prefer, but too wide for my liking. Nice deep blue though! Never mind, I'll keep looking! The straight coloured anodised aluminium ones are nice enough for now, and are a very good fit.

There used to be a funny question that got asked in the old days, about the royal mail,
"You have an ambulance, fire engine, police car all with sirens sounding, and a mail van approaching a crossroads from different directions, which one has priority ??"

Yes, quite likely, but privatisation has to make a difference too - we aren't the no.1 priority any more ..the shareholders are.
Of course, pre-terrorist days, we wouldn't have anything we want to post treat with such suspicion & scrutiny either!

I'm sure you're right - if legislation happens seriously, some will just pack up and move on to the next thing to make money from. Sunbeds was another one.
But, I'm sure that a fair number of the successful e-liquid brands were started off in a garage or spare room on a small scale. Chefs have had to move twice in the past 6 or so months.

By the way, talking of Chefs - I noticed the Jamaican Ginger ready to use was being sold in the clearance section at lower prices now.

Just ordered another pack (cheap stuff I can do without) as they said it would arrive within 6 days, I even paid for upgraded shipping....
This was ordered on Tuesday of last week. It was handed over to the "port sorting area" yesterday. 6 days from when?
As I said, I expected that but sheesh....

Expected in 6 days usually means that's when they will have it in stock, ready to send out.

Oh my ...no chance of a healthy diet reading some of those so called 'national days' ...double cheeseburger day! :D

Oooo!! I'm looking forward to Friday....Shaken not stirred.
Hmm ...now if they had a Black Stump day, I'd partake and celebrate the day! :rolleyes:
