I had some serious anticipation anxiety waiting for my 510 from e smoky treats.

Once upon a time I watched a package sent from New Jersey to New York end up in Paris... Twice! Never fear though, I'm sure your luck will be much better!

I quit analogs back in May of 09, and while I managed to stay cig free for months I kept getting cravings worse and worse. After barley resisting buying a pack every day for a week I decided to give e-cigs a try. I haven't thought about getting a pack since.

Paris?! OMG! Lol. USPS is stating that the package has been processed in Cincinnati, about an hour south of me. Hopefully, it is making it's way! That is so encouraging to hear about your success in quitting analogs! It is so funny how they become "friends", especially during stressful times.

Must have a faster mail pipe here in Illinois.
Just placed my first order with Cignot on Tuesday. It arrived Thursday (today). I live about 4 hours southwest of Cignot. Placed a second order today and received tracking number within two hours. I'll be surprised if it's not here Saturday.

I don't know why it passes through Cincinnati, seems odd to me. Then again, what do I know? Lol. I've had things routed to Lexington, KY then here. Glad you are getting such quick service!

the wait is worth it!!!! and just think, it might actually be the only thing that makes you feel like a little kid waiting for xmas, again.

i had an fifty-one trio while i was waiting for my 510, barely hanging on to my no analogs, and the day it came, puffed the 510 til the atty was ready, and after the first good vape i got from it, it felt like god sent it to me via usps.

It was like christmas as a kid! I ordered mine last Wednesday, and it didn't get here till monday. I was sooo anxious. checking the mail every day. Then it was finally in the mailbox. I practically skipped back down the driveway with it. When I got back to the house I stomped out the analog I was half way through and haven't had one since. I love it.

Wow! Really? That's fantastic! I'm worried I didn't order the right juice. I wish someone would sell that stuff in a retail location.

only thing I can recomend is that once you do get your ecig, break all your regular cigs in half and throw them in the garbage. Otherwise you will keep returning to analogs even with the ecig. I know I did and i kept thinking ok maybe i'll just finish this pack.

Plus its not the best idea to play with this new toy and smoke at the same time.
You can smoke and vape at the same time. I did for 2 and a half weeks and many others do by choice. Do what works best for YOU.

That's good to know. It seems like there may be a steep learning curve on what types of e-liquids to get (personal taste and reaction), so it may take me a bit to find what works for me.

:rolleyes: Hmmm. I'm afraid I had eight cartons when I received my first PV. I've still got six. I gave one away and sold one. I hope to get a little more money out of them, before I throw them away. Funny, sitting here with 60 packs of cigarettes, and I don't have the slightest desire to put a lighter to a coughing nail. :)

I had 5 cartons of cigs when I got my first kit back on 12/30.
Normally I smoke 5 cartons a month.
I have 3 cartons left now.
I sold about a cartons worth of cigs to the guys at work.
I still smoke analogs now and then, I don't hate myself for it.
I am just happy that I am down to less than 1/4 of what I used to smoke.
This month I only ordered 1 carton of cigs instead of 5.
With any luck by march ill be smoke free.

Sounds like you are doing great! The package I'm waiting on originated in Illinois ( I was just using Chicago as a guess). It seems strange that it could take that long coming to Ohio, but it is the Post Office. I imagine it will be here tomorrow.

I have found it depends on what "hub" your mail goes through. I ordered some items from a SoCal vendor and it took six days to get to me, and I live in Oregon! But it went through Anaheim, sat there for three days, then blasted up to Portland way past where I live and sat there two more days, then back down to me.

Then as a test I ordered from a NoCal supplier, and it went through Oakland and got to me in three days.

So there it is! But of course if you want a very specific vendor then you have to play the waiting game for the USPS to do its fancy footwork.

It's almost fascinating how the postal service works...almost! I think you're right about the hubs. I just can't comprehend how an item that is five hours away could take more than two days to get delivered, or three. I think my e-cig is on one heck of a tour right now!:)
