First post. Paralysis by analysis....

[e39-540i]

Hello All,
First off, I am very glad that this site exists, I have been watching videos, and reading all of the info I can, before I make my first purchase. Here comes my problem, I would like to buy my first e-cig, but with all of the info, and different places to order from it is making the decision very tough.

So far, this is what I have come up with that I would like to start with.

A DSE901 white with orange light, extra battery and atomizer, a five pack of carts, and some liquid. I would like to order from a US website, and would like to have at least a 14 day warranty. I do not have a problem spending a little more for better customer service, and better warranty...

Here are some of my problems, some of the sites do not offer liquid. They are out in my book as I want to order everything from one place. Some of the places did not offer extra atomizers... again, out. Lots of places are out of stock.... out. Some places seemed very high priced for the same stuff.

Any ideas of where I should go to place my first order? At the moment I am leaning towards vapornine.com and using a 10% coupon code, although shipping seems a little high. What are your thoughts, and thanks a million for your help!!

Thanks for the replies. Both of those sites do not have my color choice but maybe I should just get one, and not worry about the color...??

I guess I just figured the closer to the look of a real cig the better for me mentally. A green or blue led kinda freeks me out.

The Smokeless shop sells the white kit and on the parts page shows the white batteries with an orange LED. You could email her and ask if it's an option for the kit. My neighbors ordered from her and have been happy with the product and the service.

Puresmoker carries the white kit and are supposed to be restocking in the next day or two. Their coupon code is ecigreview or pure5ref for 5% off. HTH

Cigtech's coupon code is ' e-cignews ' for 15% off.

Honestly, initially, I would have thought I'd prefer something that looked kind of like a "regular" cigarette, but I quickly decided that I liked the idea of vaping something that really didn't look like a cigarette. It kind of makes it easier for me to pass it off as a "personal vaporizer" when it doesn't scream, "Hey, I'm pretending to be a cigarette."

Yes, I do get more comments and questions from people than I would get if I were vaping something that could pass for a tobacco cigarette, but I'm pretty much to the point where I welcome it as an opportunity to spread the word.

My brother teases me about being a "born again vapor" because I get so animated when I share information, but the truth of the matter is that it has changed my life. I'm happy to spread the word.

Also, I personally think that the farther away from "cigarettes" that we move, the more likely it is that vaping will become accepted.

But if you're not into making a political statement, you still might want to go with the funky look and funky lights just because it's kind of hard right now to find exactly what you want in stock.

I thought the same ,and I did get my first 901 in white,as well as my second.Then I saw a video review of the 901 Platinum and ordered one of those.
In my opinion (and I have No idea why) the 901 Platinum vapes circles around either of my white models.
Maybe I just got lucky and got an unusually good one...
I don't know, but I rarely ever use my white ones at all anymore.
FYI,I purchased the platinum 901 from Totally Wicked.

Easier to use indoors without harrassment if you DON'T get one that looks like a cig.

Thanks everyone for your help. Good points. I tried to order from cigtechs, I like the prices, and the warranty, but there seems to be something wrong with the website. I tried firefox, and internet explorer, and no go. I have sent an email, and will wait and see.
