Tip for next time put anything that is not next day in your wishlist, and then do 1 or more orders from there, so that the next day items get shipped straight away, also keep in mind that free shipping is if you spend at least $20. For non battery orders best shipping option at the moment is China Post (press more options on shipping page) and definitely not the recommended Singapore post, loose batteries and any mod with internal battery like the iSticks are limited to Swedish (best option) Post or HK (slow sampan) Post
Ah nice tips I will keep that in mind for next time thanks.

Not Vape Related: Don't know if any of you have heard of "A Street Cat named Bob" but I donated a few squid to the crowd funding for James Bowen who Bob adopted to start up a cafe, the perk I went for was a coffee mug, and I have just been advised that for those of us that live within the M25 it will be personally delivered within the next week, looking forward to meeting him.
The missus has read the book Bob :)

Talking glasses, for anyone under the age of 60 and who can afford it, I really recommend laser treatment, I was 60 when I had mine done so they could only correct the short-sightedness, so I still need glasses for close up work or reading the small displays on mods, I can read a book if I hold it about a foot away, if you are younger they can do it so you will never need glasses at all.
I have been considering getting mine done Bob, bloody lost without my reading glasses. Any idea how much it costs ? Oh and good luck for tomorrow mate. :)

Just wondering with the back complaint and all,if he's OK.
Hasn't anyone an e-mail ad for him.

Last visit there Terry...16-07-15.

Yes it`s strange George for sure. I know he said he was going to be spending a bit of time on there because of the mod building etc, but i didn`t think he would disappear completely.

Starts at around the 600 quid per eye mark Terry.I looked into it, and reports, beyond the people that perform it.
My mother had it done and it was great,but i read a few things i didn't like.So it's on with the bins for me.

I think I pertained to it, someone else confirmed it.
Perhaps he'll come back some time!
Yes, the Perfect Fit ones are quite expensive, but I shouldn't need any replacements for the rest of my life "touches wooden head"
Always nice to get something timeless that will last :thumb:

There's not much you can do about it, thanks anyway, let's hope they are successful this time.
Keep my toes crossed! ;)

Yep! That's what i ended up with.
One consolation, BOGOF.
BOGOF titanium? ....that would be nice! Is the actual prescription good?

I don't think I could sit still to have that done! :facepalm:

Looks good, I didn't notice one at VF but there again, I'm not in the market for any more RDAs at the moment.

about 1 to 1.5 grand for both eyes, although if you are long-sighted only it may be a bit cheaper. Optical Express did mine in their Harley Street clinic.

The actual procedure takes about 2 minutes or less, although it seems longer, and after about an hour sitting in a dark room you are able to go home, full vision came back after 30 more minutes, a few check ups for the first year after that, and I'm your uncle as they say :laugh:

I have two similar to the set of 9 you show - this one and a yellow one:$0.78 Acrylic Flat Mouth 510 Drip Tip - black at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping I got another with a different part number but it didn't fit well (used them on Nautilus mini and eMOW - fit well) and I just tried it on a Subtank, and that fits very well too.

Just wondering with the back complaint and all,if he's OK.

I haven't an email, but I have an address - could send him a note perhaps.

I wouldn't have it done due to the fact there's a small percentage don't work out well or satisfactorily. With my track record of being 'Mrs 1%' (when they say never mind - sorry, 99% of the time, it's fine!)
I'll keep my specs ;)
