So I have been hearing all of this craze about the two famous e-liquids, RY4 and Boba's Bounty.
Today I decided to go bold and order an 18ml bottle of RY4; 18mg nic, 40% VG blend, no menthol- from MrELiquids.
As for Boba's; 20ml bottle, 18mg nic, 50/50 blend- from AlienVapor.

I tried getting Bobas from AVE but it seems there is no purchase button for it..oh well. Still hear good things about AlienVapor.

Can't wait to get my vape on with both of them. Gonna' be another anxious few days until I get my liquids. :)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you bought bootleg Boba's off of a nasty counterfeit site. The actual stuff is here and only here: Verify Your Age To Enter Alien Visions E-Juice Website

Edit: Oops, you were aware. Hope it's good.

I actually wasn't aware that it wasn't sold through different vendors..I thought it might be like the ry4, where different vendors made their own take on the liquid.. I'm quite ...... now considering the order is a gift from someone ELSE who paid. I cannot even find a phone number to call the AlienVapor company...any suggestions?

Yeah, my mistake by not researching first. Looks like from what I'm reading, I'm going to get a "Baileys Milkshake" tasting Boba's...that after a couple weeks turns to a Mud consistency.....myself and the person who claimed this; am suspecting maybe a terrible mix or a dangerous one with possible improper proportions of nic..or even added chemicals. I will not be vaping this knock-off nor will I ever even visit this website again.

>>>> ....... Off. Customer. <<<<

Unfortunately, with AVEjuice.com not being able to handle many orders, this kind of post has been more common lately. I almost fell for alienvapors dastardly trick when I began as well. Alien Visions E-Juice opens at 8am PST. I believe this is 11am EST, but I may be mistaken. Anyways, they stay open until all they reach capacity and then close. If you are still wanting to give Boba's Bounty another try, just troll the site around that time for a few days and you will find them open in a few days. Make sure you make an account first and then add stuff to your wishlist. When they are actually open and you log in, everything will already be in your cart!

Don't mean to bump, but an update on what has happened.
I have not cancelled my order as the phone number I found seems to be a cellphone, that is not on. << Bad Customer Service Mistake 1...and the only one needed for me to never look back.
So I will be getting a 10.99 (without shipping/tax) 18ml bottle of "Baileys Milkshake-Bobas BullS**t" and cutting the cap off with a pair of garden sheers, proceeding to dump it out into a compost hole filled with more delightful things than the liquid itself such as manure, rotting fruits, etc etc.
& I have replaced that order with a big hefty 36ml bottle of Grey Matter.

So in turn of all these events.. I will not be getting bobas bounty, as it's not for sale on AVE's website at the moment..so I'm getting MELs RY4, and Grey Matter.

Cheers everyone, happy vaping. I'm going outside to have a calming vape with some delicious Jade Tiger.

AVE opens at 8am PST or 11am EST and they usually close within 20-30 minutes due to them only accepting a limited number of orders to keep up with demand. I would certainly not give up on giving any of AVE's liquids a try. I recently ordered 30ml bottles of Boba's and Havana Gold and they are fantastic this coming from someone who is not a tobacco vape kinda guy! ;-)

I would at least try it before dumping it, you never know.... sometimes things can surprise you.

That is the "hype."

I have read quite a few comments from people who "finally" got it, and didn't like it.
And even more who got it and thought it was ok, but didn't understand the hype.

I'm not putting that kind of effort and money into something that questionable.

Priceless.

I'm with you, too much hassle to get, I've got many flavors I like so, not messing with trying to get BB. If it can't be available whenever I want it, what point is there to even trying? I may like it and then never be able to get it again. I don't have all day to stalk one website.

Yes, this is one of my problems. If I would have known trying to buy bobas was going to be like this, I wouldn't have tried at all as I honestly have a few more important things to do then click refresh every 2 minutes until the story is magically open.

I would at least try it before dumping it, you never know.... sometimes things can surprise you.

Yeah I'm not so sure about that, I really think if it starts to turn a "mud consistency" after a week or two, it's probably got something wrong with it..and I really don't want to ingest something that might harm me. Better to be safe than sorry.

That is the "hype."

Hype Noted. ;P Still don't think I'll ever buy BB, BUT..if I happen across the site and it's open it is a possibility, just very improbably because I won't be checking the website too often.

I have read quite a few comments from people who "finally" got it, and didn't like it.
And even more who got it and thought it was ok, but didn't understand the hype.

That's one thing I'm afraid of when buying bb, just isn't worth the ridiculous effort and wait to not like something..even though I was a strict non-menthol tobacco (marlboro red) smoker.

I just posted a thread about my first order from AVE. The store is currently open right now if you want to get the real Bobas!

Lol, I must have napped through it. Already spent my share on liquid for the next few weeks, so maybe toward the end of this month.

I cant believe the store is open and my order went through :laugh: Boba is on its way!!! I will finally get to see if the hype is true or not!!! Vape On!!!!!

Please, let me know, more opinions may drive me insane because I can't throw 2 cents in, but it's good motivation to actually try to buy some soon.

↑↑↑↑↑ Yup. Not going to lie. I was pretty frustrated.

Like mentioned in my previous post they open at 8am PST or 11am EST. Not sure why you would sit around refreshing every two minutes when you know exactly when they are open! :confused:
