Juice Clubs? Worth it?

Monthly juice Services? Are they worth giving a try or is it a waste?


From what I have researched so far from the popular 3 (ZampleBox, DripClub, CraftVapery) , ZampleBox seems to be recommended for their ease of canceling etc.


Now I'm sure it's hard to get the "real" story as it is obvious 99% of the videos and info that I have seen are funded by the company's marketing plan.


So what's the deal? Does anyone use these services and are they worth it?

I just got my second zamplebox (first gold box) and was pretty disappointed this time around.

My first (STANDARD) box seemed like it was picked by hand based on my flavor profile.

my second (GOLD) box looks like someone at the ZB headquarters realized they had tons of extra "Tropical Blend" and "pina colada" that they had to unload :\

I sent them an email asking about why my gold box did not contain any coupons (that question was ignored)
I also asked them if there was a way to "tone down" the number of Pineapple related drinks I'm sent.

All I got in response was a canned "Zamplebox is so inexpensive that we don't even HAVE to be good!"

I'll probably give them another month before I jump ship. really not impressed with the customer service.

I did Craft Vapery for a few months.

On the upside, they introduced me to some good stuff I might not have tried on my own.

On the downside, I didn't have any more success with good vs not-so-good flavors than I got from just buying stuff at random on my own, and I bailed when I began getting repeats of flavors.

I might sign back up if they ever finish their website... its eventually going to be set up so you can make specific requests from their store.

I love how people sign up to a sample service which says "flavor profile in beta" aka its not going to work all the time then complain about getting random samples. If you know what you like why dont you order what you like. A sample service isnt meant to drop a box of 11 juices that you know for sure you are going to like into your lap each month. Even once the flavor profile is working it states that you are to expect a few bottles a month "outside of your flavor profile" to introduce you to other flavors and try to expand you vape horizons. If I got a box that all 11 flavors tasted like ... I wouldnt be upset because thats the nature of a sampling service. Im sure someone else got the same box and loved them all. It flabbergasts me that people dont understand this.

In my email to zamplebox I flat out stated that I was not complaining and that I was happy to try the flavors that they sent, I asked only if it were possible to avoid specific flavors in the future.

if you have not selected "fruit" or "tropical" or anything of the sort as a "liked" flavor you do not expect 6 out of the 10 bottles to be a type of pina colada.

My email was more to see if I could have a note added to my account to avoid a specific flavor (ie licorice) - if that's "an impossible request" because their flavor profiles are in 'beta' then it's clearly a service that needs to mature a bit more before I'm ready to dive in.

edit: to make it worse, the canned response about how inexpensive the service is just sort of rubbed me the wrong way. I went out of my way to state that I was providing feedback and was told "you got the juice for 70% off so stop complaining" -
It's not like I feel that i've wasted money but rather that i'm wasting an opportunity to try juices that I'm actually excited to sample. why exactly SHOULDENT the goal of zamplebox be to drop 11 bottles of juice that you will love into your lap?

The general consensus with Zamplebox seems to be if you like fruity vapes you will be happy. They will unload a ton of them on you. My first Zamplebox had mainly fruit flavors. The price is very reasonable with the amount of juice you get though. Craft Vapery and Drip Club seem to get good reviews, but they are rather expensive.
