Week ago email response indicated they are still fighting with main supplier (and getting yanked around by them) while also starting up new supplier relationships.

He's been hoping for any week now but that has been for awhile.

I'm still holding out for them to come back and come back strong as their juice is by far the best I've had to date.

I'm really sad, but I think it's time to move on, guys. I don't think Halo will go out of business, but I do think that it will be like this. ie. stocked up for a bit, then out of stock for a bit.


But, NHaler's 'High Octane' Cigarillo is pretty close to Freedom. And TW Patriot Range Kamel is damn close to Smooth 8. Also, their Tobacco Americano is spot on to Harley 56. So really, the above can hold me over 'till Halo's back up and running.

Here you go...

Ok, we've finally got shipping confirmation from our ingredient supplier, and should have flavorings in stock this week. We expect to be back in business early next week. Stay tuned for more info on the 24 hour "We're sorry for the ridiculously long wait" Sale.

I honestly apologize to you all from the bottom of my heart for the long delay. The whole situation had me really bummed out, and I'm looking forward to getting you all restocked with Halo. We have a bunch of flavorings in transit and will be ordering consistently every two weeks. We are working on Plan B and Plan C to keep this from happening again in the future.

Thank you all for your patience, the end of the drought is near.

Is this better?
Fully Stocked - 30% Off Sale

The draught is over! We just received in a huge supply of ingredients from our supplier, and are in the process of preparing formulations for our valued customers. Over the next few days and through the weekend, Halo will be busy preparing our premium e-liquid blends. We will be fully stocked for our huge 24 hour sale on Tuesday 4/20/10. We decided to throw this "Sorry for the ridiculously long wait" Sale to express our sincerest apologies for the low stock levels we've experienced over the last month. We take our customer relationships seriously, and hope this will help to ease the pain of the long wait. Please see the banner to the right for more info.

New Names For Existing Flavors

We have been required to change the names and graphics of some of our products. We can't really go into details, but these changes have been determined to be in the best interests of Halo. We are looking to build a sustainable business, and believe this was an appropriate measure to get us there. With a little thinking, we're sure you'll figure out which new names correspond to which flavors.
Halo Roadmap - The Future Of Halo E-Liquid

We are going to chalk this last month up to growing pains and supplier selection. One of our great customers told me at the beginning of this draught, "Birth is Painful". I didn't know how right he was until last week when I got really bummed out about our stock situation. In our first couple of months, we had grown dramatically, and neither Halo nor our ingredient supplier were prepared for the demand. This, in addition to all of the free samples we gave away, left us very low on stock without any flavorings coming in to replenish our supply.

OK, so will this happen again? Well, here at Halo, we are thinkers, and we do our best to learn from past experience. To start, we will be consistently ordering flavorings on a two-week cycle using more aggressive projections. We will keep a close eye on sales data to ensure we have the right ingredients on hand, while maintaining the freshness of our product.

Unfortunately, all the planning in the world doesn't help if we are unable to get shipments from our suppliers. The root of this draught stemmed from all of our eggs being in one basket. We had a single company supplying us with all of our flavor ingredients. Over the next several months, we will be developing Plan's B and C in case our current supplier is unable to deliver again. We will be testing ingredients for taste, quality, freshness and safety. This will be a lengthy process, but will certainly be worth it for the future growth of Halo, and above all the satisfaction of our customers.

To follow up on my post above I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the Harley Davidson Motrocycle Company might have some issues with not only the name Harley56 but also the logo shown on the Halo Freedom web page. It's looks a whole lot like the Bar and Shield logo of Harley's.

But that's not my problem, only my observation!!

We shall see if I'm right. As of right now, the website is exactly the same.
