Well i know james says to us ALL to steep for a week at least, BUT after 4 days i thought i would drip some black gold and i have to say it is really really nice.

It is a real pre-dominant honey taste at first, with a nice tobacco after taste. Not at all sickly in any way, like some sweet liquids can be; but the combination work together perfectly. I am well chuffed i tried this one, 30 ml order next me thinks.

Just a pity tobacco's aren't my cuppa tea or I'd try - May order my Dad 10ml to try though as he likes his baccy vapes.

Will email them if it's not at my work when I get in.

Key lime should be nice and steeped ready to try ;)

Hope it's there BG, let us know what you think of key lime - I can't wait to try it from Terry's thoughts on it!

Are orders and postage now back to normal in general after the recent prob they had with Royal Mail? I wanna place an order for a couple of 30ml bottles (is it still buy one get one?) and a couple 10ml samples, but would rather wait to see orders are processed and arriving like usual :)

Ok so still no juice :mad: I emailed JJ and Jim replied back within an hour.

REPLY:

Seems like a couple of others have not received there re send orders.

Apologies for the ongoing issues regarding Royal Mail deliveries, the matter
is completely out of our hands. You are the third customer to report
non-arrival of the replacements we sent out for the original lost orders. We
have raised this new issue of the missing replacements with Royal Mail and
their response was that some items are being delayed because of the
Christmas rush. Their response is, of course, completely unacceptable. We
are extremely angry at the inconvenience being suffered by some of our
customers and at the complete indifference shown by Royal Mail. We know that
other e-liquid and e-cig companies are also experiencing similar issues but
the problem seems to be confined to only a few areas of the UK. The vast
majority of orders are still being delivered without any difficulties.

What do you want to? Do you want us to try again, perhaps by recorded
delivery as our recorded delivery items seem to be unaffected by any
delivery issues? Recorded delivery would be at our expense, of course. Or
do you wish a full refund?

Even although this issue is not of our making I apologise unreservedly for
the aggravation and inconvenience you've experienced.

Best Wishes

So it just shows that Royal Mail is still .... as it was before!!

Wonder what the privatisation will do to it! lol

What a pain, at least Jim is being super about it, it must be costing them :(
Did you ask for a recorded delivery?
I'll have a look on site shortly and see if I can pay extra for recorded delivery - not just with JJ but anywhere I buy online until Royal Mail are on top of their Christmas Rush which is occurring over a month before Christmas Day!

Hope you're not short of juice in meantime BG - I've started collected enough juice that I order way before necessary and so have a nice buffer in case of issues with post.

Yea I asked for recorded delivery.

It was all samples anyway no 30ml. think it was around 6-7 10 samples.

I'm not totally out of juice! think I'm nuts? LOL

I have some bubblegum and pina colada left think around 25ml's of each.

But you do get bored vaping the same flavours so i like to have loads on tap.

A recorded delivery option would be good if that was added to the site.


Bloody xmas!! :evil:

I'll just be shopping with the vendors you can pay extra for recorded/guaranteed delivery with I think - if there's juices I want but only offers standard post I'll email and see if they're willing to quote me for safer postage option.

Bloody Royal Mail, how can they use Christmas as an excuse? It happens every year increased postal traffic, don't they take on Christmas Temps and stuff?
It would be bad if items were just silly later, but packages plain disappearing needs some serious looking into :(

Guys as some of you don't seem to know standard post is to be completely avoided at this time of year as theft within royal mail with temp workers has been a problem for years and seems to be beyond royal mail to stop. So whilst I won't be buying from JJ again this is not their fault and their response to it is to be applauded.

Why won't you be buying from them again then?

Another vote for Black Gold here! I've only been vaping for three weeks and still ordering loads of samples before I find something I like. I took a chance and ordered 30ml of Black Gold and tried it for the first time today. Absolutely loved it and sucked a tank dry in a couple of hours :)

I ordered the peach and cherry and although the liquid is smooth the flavour is very muted for me no where near as much flavour as I got from the supplier I'm going back too. I couldn't fault the service I got from JJ and the liquid would be great with more flavour but for the price he charges I can understand that the flavour is not high but probably fine for ninety percent of people.

If i had a criticism in general of JJ it would be that their flavours are bit on the weak side. At their prices though it is worth trying a good few of them as they are not all weak and some are really good.
