Hi ECFers! Thanks for all the information in helping me decide what to order! I've been using a Pure Smoke system and like it but the long-term cost is too prohibitive. Plus, I wanted to vape flavors and enjoy the process of vaping.

So, based on what I've read I ordered the Joye 510 kit from Cignot and juice from NHaler. I placed both orders last night and received confirmation this morning that both companies had shipped my order! WOW! Fast service!

The only complaint I have so far is the shipping cost. On the Cignot site it leads you to believe that orders over $59 are shipped free. That wasn't the case so I canceled all the extras and just ordered the basic starter kit with 2 attys for $35 and a package of blank carts.

The shipping for the juice was $7! That seems a bit much but I read good things about their flavors. For some reason I get irritated by inflated shipping costs. I would rather pay more for the item then think I'm being scammed on shipping. I feel customers should pay actual costs and companies shouldn't make money on shipping!

Any suggestions on what else I might need to make my e-cig experience fun and not frustrating?

Just because I've seen confusion about this is the past, I am posting a little disclaimer...

*** DISCLAIMER *** Pure Smoke and PureSmoker are two very different companies.

Now that is over, I've had nothing but great experiences from Cignot, the ladies who run that place are wonderful to deal with. But it is somewhat confusing about their shipping. I believe that it's just certain products that apply to the free shipping deal, like the starter kits. I think any item that shows the little free shipping icon are eligible.

I haven't ordered from NHaler yet, though they are on my list of folks to try.

When I order from someone like Nhaler, I will use thier Discount Coupon Code. Then in my mind, I subtract that savings from the cost of shipping and it doesn't hurt so much. So, if I place a $50 order - use the 10% Discount, then in my mind ... shipping was only $2.00.

OH no! I forgot to look for the discount coupon!!! Yeah, that's a good way to look at it.

Cignet wasn't going to give me free shipping even though my order was over $59 so that's why I canceled some of the items. It irritates me. And there was a green truck next to the item but it was on sale. I won't buy anything without knowing the total before I click the submit button so maybe there would have been a credit for shipping.

I just ordered from myPVshop for the first time so I could win a prize!!! I LOVE to get free prizes! Their shipping cost was only $3.99 compared to $7.00 at NHaler and I did get the 10% off coupon.

Once I decide on who to use on a regular basis the shipping charge won't be an issue because the order will probably qualify for free shipping.

That's odd. I've ordered 3 times from them (all over $59) and got the free shipping each time. Unless you ordered a HUGE amount? (They do say that larger orders may be subject to...).

My only complaint with Cignot is that they don't offer priority or express shipping as an option. (USPS is slooooooooow in my neck of the woods without it.)

Obviously I'm a noob but I'm excited about my new hobby! One problem I'm having, that I hope someone can help me with, is understanding all the terminology, abbreviations and acronyms used by vapers! Is there somewhere I can go to learn what these mean? I saw a short list but I'm past that and want to understand more about mods and DIY terminology especially as it's used here at ECF. Thanks!

Understanding Cignot's shipping charges where more than likely my dizzy brain and I don't want it to appear that I'm complaining. I had spent several days reading posts before ordering and wasn't feeling too bright.

Wow, can you believe I already received my NHaler order - it came in the mail today! I don't know how they got it to me from NJ so fast, but I'm excited to try my first flavored juice!

It came professionally packaged with a "Half Measures" return address. They also included a nice cloth pouch free...very impressed!

I'll let you know what I think of the flavors but it may not mean much because I'm so new at vaping.

Thanks everyone for all your help!!!
