When I ordered it was sent by Fedex first time getting something shipped with them couldn't beleive how fast it was. It was in my hands in 3 days! Being on the farm Canada Post:( is the only way for me to get my stuff. This was sent to the bus depot in town 25 miles but it is also the same distance to the post office.
madvapes has been awesome they have everything you need to build your own mods:)

This is great stuff to read.. We're actually just sampling fedex and the service has been excellent. USPS can take up to 6 or 7 weeks sometimes :(

The pricing for shipping is based on the price of the order and it's only because we do not have weights in our system fully yet. As soon as the weight is added to each product then we'll be able to offer actual price of shipping to you folks as well as different options like fedex, ups, express mail, priority mail and even first class mail. For some, the price might go up a little and for others down a little.. I know the rural areas get banged with a surcharge but then it's worth some group buying :)

again, great to hear the feedback!

yes please let me know how to ensure fedex shipping and i will place my next order. The sooner the better as I am tired of express post

hows the juice from there?

My own one-line summaries of the ones I've tried so far (with the standard disclaimer that these are based on my own tastebuds and YMMV):

- Chocolate mint: Really awesome, like a peppermint patty, A++ Would Order Again.
- Mint: Very nice, like a fresh mint leaf.
- Coffee: Tastes like burnt popcorn and hot peanuts to me.
- Kona Cream: Tastes like slightly stronger burnt popcorn and peanuts.
- Spearmint: Spearmint, but with extra sweetener; too sweet for me.
- Very Berry: Not bad, a candy-like berry vape.
- Cheesecake: Disturbing, kind of approaches cheesecake but then runs away.
- Caramel: Mostly tastes like mild, sweet vanilla.
- Kick-azz Caramel: Mostly tastes like slightly stronger, sweet vanilla.

Three of us got together and got an order in. I've requested that they ship via FedEx. Now, it's to be seen if they will or not. I hope they do. I don't think I have the patience to wait 3 weeks to try the dual-coils. :)

Keep y'all posted.

My order was dropped off at the post office at 5pm on Saturday, and it's being shipped via USPS Express Mail International (from California). I've never had anything shipped to me via USPS Express before, so it should be interesting to see whose items arrive first,

So, I got a USPS tracking notification of shipping. I'm guessing it is an express package as it has a CJxxxxxxxxxxx number. USPS site does not have much information on it yet. I guess my comment saying "Please ship FedEx. It has the fastest delivery times and least hassle for Canadians. Thank you!" did not count, or they had a better reason for shipping USPS (package size/price etc.).

I wonder if it is cuz I am in the boonies? I got an email from them about shipping, after I left fantastic feeback on their site, and they said it was going to be available now. Hmmmm, I wonder!

It could be. Most couriers (FedEx, Puro, UPS) charge extra for "beyond" areas (regions outside their normal distribution radius, usually really far from the closest sortation depot) and it isn't cheap, either, so it's very possible they don't have the right rates set up for beyond areas.

Placed another order last night to stock up on the EMDCC before they sold out and just received an email saying it was shipped using FedEx and should be here in the morning. I'm starting to fall in love...

EDIT: Should note, I did ask in the order form to have it shipped with FedEx same as my previous order.

I still don't know why we did not get ours shipped via FedEx?!

My USPS Express package's tracking has an ECxxxxxxxxxx number. I think CJxxxxxxxx is actually Priority Mail. :(

Really sucks that your stuff got shipped Priority. They must've missed the comments in your order. Human error is always a bummer. Hope shipping wasn't too expensive.

Here's the reply I got from MV. "Hi David, we're still working on fedex and will have it as an option but sometimes the price is cost prohibitive based on rural area surcharges and other surcharges that fedex has and it makes it a loss for us to ship through them. We're also working on USPS express as well and in some cases the shipping is comparable to Fedex and has tracking as well. Hopefully we'll have it all sorted out soon and you'll be able to pick the best shipping option."

Oh well, I'm in no big rush for any of the stuff we ordered, but it would have been good to say "Hey, I got an order in two days from the country right next door to us, considering I've had packages from China show up in 4 days!"
