Hey guys, just an FYI, the USPS is raising their prices on 1/22. Need your input, I am thinking about changing my Free First Class Shipping WITH tracking to Free First Class Shipping WITH NO tracking. I will also offer a paid First Class option that includes tracking. What are your thoughts.

Why does everyone give Ripple such a hard time?? Not just here but I found a new forum where they do as well! I like ripple and want to start a be nice to Ripple campaign. If you can't love an old hippy... who can you love?

Yes you will! And I don't really want to take away free shipping all together. I think I am going to offer the following come the 22nd:

Free First Class (NO Tracking)
First Class w/ Tracking = $1.92 (although this might change depending on the price increase, but hopefully not by much)
Priority Shipping w/ Tracking = $5.90

The free as it is now is only for tanks, but add a tank to an order that doesn't get free shipping and your order will ship free! And of course jars will upgrade to free priority if you add a tank.

This way there is still a free shipping option, a cheap option if you want or need tracking and finally a priority option.

I sure hope this works for everyone!

I've still got to come up with something for those purple tanks. The colors are so beautiful when are holding them, deep purples mixed with dark blues, but they are just not photographing well. In the photos the blues are coming out light and as the dominant color but in reality the purples are the dominant color.

I have some other stuff I really need to take care of urgently. I am hoping you will be on-line and up tonight so I can share some good pictures and videos with you and you can make a choice and we can get a package out to you! That being said it will be 3 to 4 hours before I will be able to pick up a camera!

Can you get plastic caps for your tanks in colors? I think some blue caps on the Tardis tank would be sweet

 

[BluSwatch]

The shipping options sound good .....

What other thread?

Colored caps would be cool.

Will the "green" tanks be dark or lime-ish green?

Ok ... am I caught up? Evening Phins.

Yes, but there will be issues. When machining caps the price goes down extremely when you order more. So in order to keep your costs down, we try to order caps in large quantities. The problem with colors is everyone will want a different color. If I order different colors in small amounts it will be very costly for me and you! If I order different colors in large amounts it will be extremely costly for me as they can take years to sell. If you guys all want to take a vote and pick 1 or 2 colors I will consider it BUT I guarantee you want blue, someone will want purple, someone else is bound to want pink and you know who will want them gold plated!

Have you guys ever tried making glass caps? or would that be too difficult?

I was talking about a thread on the nu-vapor forum (hope that was not the forum "That shall not be named)

See above post... gold plated cap would be cool too!

I will post pictures of the color options for the colored tanks soon! I have only the two color samples at the moment. But we might be jumping ahead a bit! It will take a while to engineer a new cap for them, it will likely be a few months.

I will get better photos of the samples I have and color samples of the rest. Then you guys can tell me if there will be interest... But I might not have that for a day or two, unless of course I can clone myself a few times.

Insomnia... whats that? I guess we have something in common.

Go Gold! Go Gold!


Oh ... I was thinking it was about another area of ECF .... area, department, whatever you call it. LOL

 

[moorea]

NO!!!!!!! I don't know that it would be possible. The caps need to be a VERY precise size I don't think we could achieve that blowing them. I can likely make you a leaky set if you like

Go Gold! Go Gold!

Told you "you know who" would vote for gold.

 

[moorea]

Hey guys... tell me if anything exciting happens on the contest thread, I won't be able to keep up with it tonight, it is moving to fast and I am too busy!

 

[BluSwatch]

I have 3 GLVs with silver, and don't even have my gold yet, so ... silver is cool too I guess. LOL

Oh, have to say I do like the black though ... matches the GLV button nicely.

 

[BluSwatch]

Uhh ... is it ok if most of the talk is chatting and no so much "where would you ..."? But it's all related to Phiniacs and Petes.
