How long it take you to get blu?

[wv2win]

Actually, battery life hasn't really been an issue. Two batteries fully used will last a full long day into the night, but I would be lying if I said I didn't use the charging pack in-between "just in case". I also carry my USB charger with me as a precaution as well.

I gotta say. The battery life on my M401 (even with with the M402 battery on) is amazing. One battery lasts most of the day. Two last more than a day. Not bad. Blu should offer a slightly larger battery as an option for aftermarket purchase to Blu owners.

I have already expressed passthrough USB wants to Jason and I have been told that this is not likely to happen. Nor is a non-charging slimmer case for those that don't need to constantly charge. The pack looks huge when it's in my pocket and I wanted something slimmer in size.

You MUST work for Blu, lol. There have been report after report of Blu's batteries lasting 1 hour on average. The best PV's on the market have battery life of 8 hours, max and these are 1000+ mAh 3.6 volt batteries. So how does a 150 mAh battery last even half a day???? Do you have any clue about battery science? Maybe if you hit it once an hour only, tops, it might last for 2 or 3 hours. This is just more BS spam from Blu which then makes new users wonder what they are doing wrong.

Received mine this morning! And as for the worthlessness of this product, let me ask you this...has anyone tried smoke-51? IMHO that $70 piece of crap is worthless! For what I got out of the box from blu, it blows the 51 out of the water hands down. Glad I was impatient, now just waiting for my 510 batts to show up.

I've never tried the smoke 51 , but I've heard it's horrible. When you get the 510 Batts, you may think differently, however, about Blu. The Blu isn't even in the same class as the 510.

I ordered my starter kit on 7/5. i know that i ordered later than most people here waiting but im dying waiting for this ****. last night i had a dream that blu was in my front door i was so happy.... but i woke up to cold hard truth... still pending. i buy new packs everyday hoping its my last one and i live in nyc so its $10.00 per pack.... sigh.....

Thats why I went out and bought my smoke51 at a tobacco shop. It sucks, and I had to send one battery back for replacement, but at least I can vape. I then ordered a KR808D and cancelled my Blu order.

I ordered mine June 30th and Just today I got an email saying that mine was going out today. My order status has also been changed to 'shipped'. It appears that emailing Jason Healy is about the only way you are going to get it shipped.
So I guess if all goes well I'll have it by Friday/next monday. It'll be closer to 5 weeks for me to get mine.

 

[RogueStatus]

Just wanted to add to this. I ordered 7/4.

I just emailed Jason last night, and bingo recvd a reply this morning. My order has now shipped and I have a USPS tracking number.

If anyone is waiting, do this now. It works. I wish I would have done it sooner.

This is going to be my first e-cig so hopefully its not as bad as all the haters say .

I ordered on 6/26, and as of today, still pending... I've already ordered a Versus 510 from Vaporstation, and wondering if I should even bother sending Jason an email or just cancel. If it takes this damn long just to get the inital product, what kind of wait will I have when I need replacement parts? 2 months? 3? I understand they have a "Backorder" problem, but this is just ridiculous. I don't see this company even being around in a few months, especially with SO many other vendors out there that can actually fulfill their obligations within a weeks' time.

Well, I think someone from Blu must be lurking the forum, Not two hours after my last post, their site changed my status to "Shipped". We'll just have to see how long it actually takes to get here...It would be pretty cool if the Blu and my 510 show up on the same day

Update on my order:
The package was picked up and filed through their sorting facility in North Carolina. Atleast my box isn't sitting with blu anymore. They filed my shipping claim Priority mail perhaps in response to my email to Jason Healy, the president of blu, at jason@blucigs.com. I assume most orders will be going out soon in accordance with their August 1st deadline. Lets hope that blu really works as advertised and hopefully we all will be getting ours in about a week.

As for people knockin blu, please don't. While we appreciate your comments on how it rates when compared with others, we are not in this subforum to learn about THEM. This one is for blu and many of the posters here are new to the e-cig world and Blu happened to advertise to us first. Its not terribly expensive and I'm sure people that order blu that are not satisfied will send it back and try another type. In the mean time let us learn on our own accord.

Ordered June 13th, recieved July 20ish, bought a pack of Winstons July 20ish. These things are terrible. Sucking on the two that I got at once allllmmost hits like an Ultra-Light through a garden hose. Awesome service as well (tch), only took a week to get a reply email after I asked about the delays.

I just started doing the electronic smokes and found this website only recently. Wish I had sooner; I would've bought something else.

Hate to bother, but while I'm at it; Any suggestions as to where to go from these things? Everybody has a different opinion I'm sure, but what hits more like half-filtered Winstons?

 

[Ataki]

If it's hit you're looking for, you'll probably go best with a 510.. But that's just my opinion

 

[MerlinGLX]

Ordered on 6/22/09 and I was going to cancel today if the order hadn't changed by today, and it now shows as shipped. we'll see how long it takes (shows as shipped but usps hasn't gotten it yet).

 

[speedpicker88]

I ordered mine june 7th and it finally went to a shipped status a month later. I was excited. I waited a week and still nothing. So I called them, turns out they they're supply of shipment was delayed so they didn't even have anything to ship out! So I cancelled my order, did some research, ordered a 510, and couldn't be happier

 

[warsphinx]

After a month there it is it shows as shipped .... No tracking number yet...
Dont know if it was really shipped or if it's just a false alarm with delayed inventory..... I waited for too long and on the 15th ordered a 510 from totally wicked, should be here this week anyway...

Hello! I discovered this forum a few weeks ago after i started to question my order status with blu, and after getting fed up with their customer service. I sent an email to Jason on Sunday...I just received my starter kit today (ordered July 2nd) This is my first e-cig and it was well worth the wait.

 

[MerlinGLX]

OK, got mine in - so far, not super impressed, batteries weren't supposed to be completely charged, but they were. Looks like i got an extra atomizer which is nice. A little dissappointed with the vapor amount, but maybe that just has to do with the atomizer not being broke in. flavor (vanilla) so far its nice, but my 410 is better as far as vapor and hit.

 

[Ataki]

Still waiting on mine..Blu says it shipped 3 days ago, but USPS still dosen't have it. Got me a new 510 yesterday from Vaporstation, so I guess they can take their time now.

Blu has a interesting hidden police!
It's based on buyer vs seller exchange:
-What they expect of the consumer:
-Credit card information so that they can charge at checkout
-Pacience
-Trust
-A form to be filled out with the right information so that they may contact you if they want to

-What they offer in return:
-A horrible costumer service that will only follow the manual and answer with pre-written text.
-They guarantee they revenue at all costs! Wich means that doesn't matter how many times they lie to you, or delay your shippment they will not spend a penny more on a faster shipment method.
-A email with your tracking number that you won't receive.
-A bunch of excuses to justify their poor services
-As many lies as you want to hear! (and that's free!)
-Once your order is shipped and you can see that at the website and after you call or chat to get a tracking number it yet will take a few days to be picked up by the carrier.

So overall it's a really good deal as you all can see!
Thank you very much Jason Healy for the worst online shopping experience I've ever had!

- They gave me a tracking nuber on the 29th of July and yet it still sits at their warehouse after a month of waiting.

Well Blu is accepting orders again!!!
We may think they got caught up and learned their lesson.
hahahahahahahaha
Now they say that new orders may take from 4-6 weeks to be shipped!

What a joke!
