Hey Guys and Gals,

Just wanting to introduce myself as I just got my first PV today and I've got to say, it's freakin' awesome!

Firstly, my name is Chris, I'm 21 years' old and am currently living in Wellington, New Zealand. I work as a civil servant and am renting a house with my girlfriend, Rachel, and cat, Zephilena.

So how did I get into vaping? Well I was on Facebook one day and saw an ad for PV's through a New Zealand company. Now, I've been wanting to quit smoking for some time now...the smell and the crappy feeling in the morning was getting old. The problem was, I didn't really want to quit as I found I actually quite liked smoking...having time out and it seems like a great way to meet new and interesting people.

After seeing the ad on Facebook, I decided to a bit of investigating. I knew that buying from a New Zealand supplier would mean spending more than if I ordered from overseas. So after a couple hours of visiting various websites, and going through the painful process of finding a site that DOES actually ship to New Zealand, and isn't painfully expensive, I ordered a KR808D-1 from minicigarette.net.

So after 7 days' of waiting, my first PV is finally here!

I have to say, using a PV feels a lot different physically to an analogue but it gives the same satisfaction psychologically as smoking one! I'ts been 4 hours since my batteries have finished charging and I haven't even thought of going outside for an analogue (I'm about a pack a day smoker).

I haven't actually seen ANYONE in New Zealand using a PV, and after a quick search I can see there are a couple other forums users from here. Hopefully that will change soon! Over here it costs $12.80NZD, which is about $8.80USD for Pall Mall 26s, which is about the cost of a pack of 5 new cartomizers!!

So yeah, just wanted to introduce myself, and wanted to share how awesome it is owning my very first PV! :lol:


Thanks for reading,

Chris

Welcome to Smix and Simply.:) We all like to have a good time on here and you can learn a TON of information too. That is one of the things I wished I had found before buying my first ecig. Bought an SE and then found the forum. Oh well, live and learn....I now am the proud owner of a Joye Tech 510 and love it. Cya' round. :D

Welcome and congrats on your decision to join the "vaping obsessed" - ok, not speaking for everyone, just me :)

Wow - cigarettes are just as expensive down there as they are up here where I live. Ridiculous.

Hope you like it here on the forums, it really is a great community - pull up a chair and get comfy, there is so much to read here.

It sounds like you'll have no trouble transitioning to vaping - it's a lot of fun!

Good Luck! :)
