Wow Lu, personal attack much as a moderator even? Do you have evidence to back that up? Those are some pretty big accuasations towards me. I started ONE of the addiction threads, yes, and what I said was true and she had admitted it is true. They are mixing juices, just as I said, whether it's in a vat or in a bathtub or in a sanitized lab, none of that matters. All I said was the juices were awful, which most off of you agreed on the original orders and there was something not right here. To accuse ME of being the one to ruin it for them, no, they did that for themselves. That's some pretty big slander there Lu, that you are throwing at me. Everything I originally stated was true about them mixing juices and how awful the original batches they were selling were. I think you need to take a deep breath and step back and not be a hypocrite honey. Your witch hunt against me has gone on long enough lady.

I'm not talking as a moderator here, Lucky. I am talking as a member who also bought this juice and in light of what she has said here, am willing to give it another shot with the changes she's making.

Now, let's see....personal attacks....hmmmm. This is really interesting coming from you Lucky.

And do I have evidence to back what up?

Accusations and slander? My, isn't that the pot calling the kettle black! You should really look up the definition of slander. I have given my opinion of how a lot of this started. That post of yours I deleted...you called them scam artists who are making juice in a tub in their basement. Slander is malicious and false. Do you have proof of that?

You said several times they were mixing there juice in big vats or tubs in their basement. If anything is slanderous, that is.

Oh, it is definitely my opinion that you ruined things for others. You got a refund. To me, I would have come back and said "Wow, that was pretty cool. They gave me a refund and I didn't even have to send the juice back". I would have been grateful. So what did you do instead? Now why would they bother extending that offer again when all it got them was grief?

My witch hunt against you, Lucky? C'mon...get real. You have insulted more people here in your short time than most members who have been here forever. Don't preach to me about witch hunts. You latch on to something and you just can't let it go. All you have to do is look back at your previous posts to see what I mean. Anyone can do that and as I said before, they will speak for themselves.

And sorry, Lucky...there is absolutely nothing you can say here to bait me into a rant as you are so good at (both baiting and ranting). Now let's see...can that be proven or not? Let me go look at some old threads.

This is another one of those surreal threads. A supplier offers to refund product with the return of the product you don't like.

If someone doesn't like the product for any reason or wants to DIY cheaper, then great. The product isn't for you. I haven't read any reports of product returned that wasn't refunded so honestly, why all the drama?

Actually, that is was Shimmy is saying happened.

Um, yeah, so all the bickering back and forth aside (sorry, having not been privy to past insult exchanges between the participants, it's really hard to judge just who is rightfully nasty and who isn't 8-o), is it possible to go back to a couple of the "honest" questions that were asked? I'm really curious. Thanks.

Statement by Addictionejuice:

While searching for overseas suppliers , the one that we found that we really like, we contacted before purchasing and asked them if we added flavoring if it would compromise the nicotine levels.Too much of a surprise , they stated that they are shipping out eliquid that can withstand 5% of flavoring without compromising the nicotine levels. FYI ...we put less than 5%.

One Question:

That doesn't make any sense. Diluting it less than 5% is still diluting it. There's no way around that.

Why not just sell the liquid and flavors seperately?

Another Question:

How does this work exactly though? I mean, if you have x amount of liquid containing x amount of a substance and you add y amount of another substance so that the amount of total liquid is increased, dilution occurs of the x substance - doesn't it?

So, if they're selling a liquid that claims 36mg nicotine per x size bottle, and you add xmg of another substance, isn't the percentage of nicotine in the liquid reduced?

Whatever Lu. I've only had nothing but great compliments out there to other suppliers if you really DO read my posts. You're rudeness and cutting ME down is enough. I've had 2 problems since coming here. One was with Parked who lied to me, which is the truth and the 2nd was the crappy addiction juice I received. Obviously you don't understand the word facetious. IMO addiction juice is a 2 bit out fit mixing their own stuff, which they OPENLY HAVE ADMITTED TO MIXING THEIR OWN STUFF. I don't care what they mix it in, it was a JOKE or facetious about saying they mix it in a vat, a bath tub or whatever. I guess that went over your head. And yes, many people have PM'd me noticing your witch hunt against me. I'm by far not the only one that has said it.

Can we put this one to bed now please?

Joe, amongst all the bickering there are some honest questions that haven't been answered yet... just above here, in fact.

It's about the advertising of 36mg liquids when flavoring has been added. It is the contention of... well... everyone except the vendor that adding Lorann's, no matter how little, will dilute the nicotine strength.

We're waiting :)

No. She would have looked better in your eyes jo. I see she's come here and tried to answer peoples' questions...which she didn't have to do. There were others who were going to buy her juice on the other thread anyway. She came here to set things straight. I think that's pretty admirable. Just my opinion.

Lu
Lu I'm sure we don't need to take a poll on this. I'm also sure I'm not alone in my opinion. All the forum members are quite capable of making their own opinions. And I'm quite sure they already have.

I am going to honor SmokeyJoes request and forget this thread is even here. Although, I do have one more thing to post before doing so.

1) Our juice infact comes from a factory located in China
2) We do add Lorann flavorings to it ourselves
3) We are trying a new batch to assure it has enough nicotine and throat hit because most of you were asking for it. We have been trying to do what it took to make you all happy. There are a few people on the board who have tried the new juice, and are very well fond of it, and I am sure more reviews on our product will be posted as soon as we get the new order in.
4) If you are interested in purchasing, please visit our store at Welcome to www.addictionejuice.com. Although the new product is not in at the moment, we will have it posted on the site once we have it.

If the rumor that we mix our juice in a vat in our basement continues without proof, there is going to be a problem here that no one is going to like. The only thing you gain from making fictitious lies about our company is a slander charge. And for those of you who are not sure what slander is, I'll make it easy for you.

slan⋅der
1. defamation; calumny: rumors full of slander.
2. a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report: a slander against his good name.

Yes, our juice was brown and had no throat hit. That is how it was received from the manufacturer. We have addressed these issues, and plan to continue to excell in our customer service as well as our juice. We are trying a new supplier now and are anxious to see how it goes.


Please guys, lets respect SmokeyJoe here and drop it. If you folks have anything more to say to me, go to my site, and go to the contact us tab.

Thank You,
Desiree

sorry.. the contact us tab doesn't seem to be getting response....



and i never really wanted to go here but....

a bit of a quote from an email i recieved...

Sorry I did not get back to you sooner, when we rebuilt the site, we had to
reset our server to erase the old website, and it completely deleted all of
our old emails.

In responce to your question, yes, the product we sell we purchase in bulk
from a company over seas.

Thank you,
Desiree
Welcome to www.addictionejuice.com

exactly where are you being forthcoming about mixing it yourself?

if you add flavors to it.. then you are NOT selling me what you recieved from china

my question to you was

> if you've been reading the nasty thread about your product on ecf.. then
> you'll know me as Taukimada.. i'm contemplating placing a small order..
but
> was curious (due to complaints) as to whether your ejuice was a home mix
or
> you are just getting it cheaply from china? i know the asking sounds
bad..
> and my apolgies.. but the complaints people were making has me
concerned..
> and i'd really prefer to know upfront instead of feeling need a refund
of
> any sort.. thank you ahead of time for your response :)Thank You!


i believe my request gave you MORE than ample room to honestly say that you added flavors and rebottled it... i am FAR from on a witch hunt.. i haventordered from you.. and honestly.. since it took a second email stating i was satisfied with your non-answer thank you for replying.. i considered the matter on my end finished... i would not be ordering

i'm done... i just wanted to show tht as you throw stones out at people questioning your business practices and accuse them of slander and lying... there are some of us who've gotten the bigger picture

Actually, that is was Shimmy is saying happened.


Actually Shimmy was the one who created this drama in the first place. This was her post on the original Addication juice thread


04-03-2009, 10:48 PM


Got a response back. He wants me to send the juice back before he refunds my $$$...I got a bad feeling about that :(

Think I'll dispose of it...it wasn't sealed and how do I know it wouldn't be passed on to someone else?!

I'm so disappointed, the emails were one liners, "send it back here and get your refund", no name, no apology, nothing


She sent this email on 3/4 Friday night, and by the sound of it, I don't get the impression that she had already sent the package out. Even if she send this package out on Friday, it would be take at least 3 business days to get to FL form IL. Anyways, on Sunday she starts a new treat warning people that they have her package, and will not refund her money. She also started a paypal dispute on Sunday as well because they have not refunded her money yet.

The best part is I questioned her about when she shipped the package, because I believe it was really shipped Sat morning, the day after her original post. see above. Well when she check her tracking number, what a surprise, it just left Chicago today. I think any normal person would have checked their tracking number before they started spreading false accusations about them getting ripped off. You will get your money back once they receive their product back.

Bingo. I don't understand why this wasn't addressed by the supplier?

you should really sit back.. enjoy your free sample and cheer from away from the keyboard...

seeing as all of thier responses to users questions were originally relayed through YOU in emails instead of posts REALLY limits your credibility

Walrus, I ran this 5% flavoring through Jaxx's Hack-O-Matic Nic calculator & it shows the resulting liquid to be only 34.2ml nic. I guess you are correct :D
