Favorite Vendors and why

[Crazyinariz]

1. Who's your favorite hardware vendor (and why)

2. Who's your favorite juice vendor (and why)

My favorite hardware vendor is a tie for 1st place between Dave at DesertVapes Electronic Cigarettes and Supply and Tim and http://www.vaporbeast.com/. For the why it's the same with both. OUTSTANDING customer service. Dave stood in a parking lot in the middle of the summer (the temperature was well over 100f) for over an hr answering all my noob questions when I went for a local p/u and Tim replied to a problem I had w/my shiny new chrome lavatube (I love saying 'shiny new chrome lavatube') by calling me on Thanksgiving weekend to help solve my problem (I wasn't doing the 5 clicks to turn it on fast enough, doh) and make sure I was happy w/my purchase.

My favorite juice vendor is Heathers Heavenly Vapes, Top Quality Custom E-Liquids simply because I've liked every flavor I've ordered from them and they're speedy w/deliveries.


Who're your favorites and why?

VapingMe has terrific customer service in my experiences, though their stock is somewhat limited.

Not sure. I'll have to think on that one!!

Provape for hardware, since, well yeah I'm hooked on my Provari and tend to order cartos from them. Not as cheap as other places I've seen but their website is easy to use and they ship supoerfast (sam day shipped with my last order and received the cartos 2 days later).

HHV also for juice. Lovin me some Gandalf until it ran out. Will be ordering larger bottle soon.

Kool. I'd like to see this thread go huge. I think it'd be great for 2 reasons. It'll let new vapers see a list of which vendors people like and why and also it'll let the vendors see that they're 'going above and beyond' is appreciated.

1) Stormy's Vapor Cellar. Price and cust. service for Stormy's has caught my buisiness.
2) Heather's Heavenly Vapes. Best E-juices I've found.

Ikenvape... Atomizers and cartomizers
Ahlusions... Juice

GotVapes for hardware. I've also had very fast, reliable service from Mike and Carol's Internet Store

KickBassVapors for juice, especially my all day juice-Fiddle Faddle.

I really liked my experience with got vapes, and myvaporstore.com For juice, honestly I love ECBlend. The flavors, and cheap shipping rulz. Also the customer service. Here's why. I had ordered a couple of items from ecblend. Couple hours later I realized I should have order a couple more items, so 2 different shipping right? That's what I thought.... Well, before they shipped either order, they emailed me stating they noticed I had order 2 different orders going to the same shipping address. They credited me the shipping, and combined my orders. Sure, it was only a couple bux, but still I thought it was awesome.

Well... I have ordered hardware from some different places. I got to say I really like madvapes prices and service.

Now juice... that is a bit harder. I forget who I ordered my first ever juice from... it was just oaky. Since then I have mainly went to virgin vapor and juicy vapor until recently I have been ordering through vermillion rivers. There are things that I like about each. But I have a few coming from Blue mist and Heather's and I have never tried them... so... juice is a toughie. All 3 of my staples are just okay for price points. JV tends to be a little more spendy then a lot of juice venders. But the thing is the juice tastes exactly like what it is supposed to be (with the exception of the angry birds). Virgin vapor is organic and quality. And vermillion is quality. I have gone back to Juicy vapor the most. And they have a HUGE selection of flavors. Last order (before this one) I was amazed at how many juices they had... and I just ordered more from them and WOW even more flavors. If you want it the probably have it. The only thing I don't like is that they are in New york and I am in Cali... juice takes so long to get here.

This is for OP, but i randomly checked out desert vapes, and fell in love when i saw the eroll at 45, had to get it, then saw that he has everything else i have been looking for in one site and some holiday juice, pretty awesome site. And my order was exactly 65.00, thought that was funny

Desertvapes was my 1st venture into ecigs when I realized that I wanted something bigger and better than the v2's. Having worked in retail for yrs I truly appreciate good customer service and truly feel that Dave went way above and beyond in helping me on my vaping journey.

My favorite gear vendors (I already gave my juice vendors in that best of 2013 topic):

RTD Vapors (Randy)
Wizard Labs (John)
Altsmoke (Rob)

All these people have treated me GREAT, stood behind their products, and respond quickly and professionally in every way, and with alacrity. And carry top notch stuff.

hardware is madvapes. Good customer service , fast shipping , low prices.
Mountain Oak Vapors : Good Prices , Great customer service and the rest of the story : When I decided to quite smoking again I started looking for ejuice (non-flavored) did not want to order over internet (bad experiece years ago with ejuice)Walked into the store and asked if they had non-flavored e-juice. They did not but did inform me where I could get it from off the internet.Then I tried some of thier flavors and OMG i did not know how much everything changed over the years. I still venture to other suppliers but still go back to Mountain Oak Vapors due to Quilty of their product.

My favourite hardware vendor is Elite Vaporworks because Jayson probably reads this and knows where I live.
For juice....Backwoods Brew and NO OTHER.....except for Jayson when he reads this.....
