I dont know guys, I have never ordered from them before, but when I inquired about my order I got an answer, its just a shame that they havent found a suitable resolution for the other members here waiting..

That being said I dont usually place blame when there are unknown factors. Its a box that has to travel across how many miles, get placed in how many different sets of hands and sorted how many times? Even just from Cali to Washington. Kase don get me wrong, I COMPLETELY agree with you, and Im bummed Ive had to wait 7 (going on 8, thats IF it gets here tomorrow) days when others have gotten their order in 2 days.

But you dont have the full story yet, you dont know it wasnt lost by the USPS, or whathaveyou. If it really is SEJ fault then so be it.. but I try to give everyone a fair shake until I know for a fact that theyve wronged me.

Cignot ships fast (same day, usually - even on weekends) but I've noticed they don't ship priority (at least not with free shipping) so I wouldn't advise trying them over the holidays (my last order - on the 13th - took 5 days to get here). Not cignot's fault except for having no express/priority options - USPS did say received - and that's all it said till Friday, when it said 'processed through Tampa' - and I got it that afternoon.

I'm going to suggest an express option on their and hope they'll do it. I like the ecopure and love their toffee. If they'll do express for extra, I'd pay it happily when I'm low on something! (I've never noticed much difference between 'priority' and regular in my neck of the woods - but USPS usually manages 2 days with express.)
I ordered my e-cig and some juice from them on the 18th and got it yesterday.

At this point, I am still giving the benefit of doubt to SeJ because it is Christmas and I understand shipping practices change during this time. I am just bummed because I should have known better and now I'm SOL.
I have to add that, I have been milking this carto all day. Maybe it'll help me cut down my nic intake. Hell, if I wasn't vaping like it was going out of style when I first got my kit, I wouldn't be in this prediciment!;) And I mean, I was vaping like it was going out of style! I never smoked like this, but I found myself vaping every 2-5 minutes. All day long. In the middle of the night. :rolleyes:
I love this thing. And analogs never tasted so goood!

Chris at My Freedom Smokes is in Charlotte. He has amazing juice in varied strengths! They are the best I have tried! I order on Sunday night and have my stuff Tuesday! (That happened even this week!)
I'm in the western part of the state or I'd meet you somewhere and give you some juice.:(
Try the Snus, you can get it at any place that sells cigs. Check the mall for an e-cig kiosk, call around to all the tobacco speciality stores and see if they sell the disposables. Smoking the analogs is going to be no fun at all :mad:.
Best of luck. Hope something works out!

In a very last ditch attempt to be helpful, do you have a casino nearby? Our casino offers a disposable e-cigarette for sale on the cheap. Perhaps you could be so lucky?
Perhaps I could be so lucky if there was a casino. Not because they might have a disposable, but because I would be so busy gambling that I wouldn't be thinking about analogs, e-cigs or otherwise!!!!!!!!!!!:D

Jane, keep in mind, Jane works here: L2 Artistries!, Order and Payment Third Party Processing which isn't an anywhere so to speak. I kind of feel stupid arguing and dealing with "Jane" when she probably doesnt even have anything at all to do with the actual company

And you know what's utterly ironic about that link?
These are the people who were taking unsecured payments when their Paypal got pulled without telling their customers- and the excuse was that they were new at this and didn't know how to secure their site and couldn't afford it.
Anyone who knew anything about selling ecig supplies would have known that PP had shut down suppliers months prior.

They were saying they'd have to pay thousands to get a certificate so they could stop letting you broadcast your credit card info to whoever. Until strangely enough I mentioned they could just get a GoDaddy cert for like $100... and then suddenly that's exactly what they did.

So I find it hilarious that they are actually a company that sells e-commerce solutions to anyone. :rolleyes:

Justincase - do what you have to do to get through until your liquids arrive. Remember this process is a journey, and each of us finds our way through differently. You could get some VG, flavoring, menthol, and try mixing a batch and then refill your carts to keep vaping, and also smoke, chew gum, snu, or whatever else works for you to get the nicotine in your system.

I smoked and vaped for the first two months on my journey, naturally cutting down the cigarettes in favor of the e-cig until one day in early August I just didn't want another cigarette. By then of course I had figured out how and when to order supplies so I don't worry about running out, but that too takes time to work out, and you're so new to the process you got caught in a bind. So if you need to smoke to tide you over don't beat yourself up, just consider it a lesson learned and move on, using the information you've gathered to avoid running out of supplies.

I just did a quick search of this thread, and didn't find any mention of truck stops. Some of them (Pilot and Flying-J for sure) carry NJoy products. They have starter kits, and boxes of 5 pre-filled cartridges that fit 801 atomizers (NCig) and RN4081 (NPro). The only flavors are "Regular" and "menthol", and what they call "high" strength is 18mg of nicotine.

I feel for ya, but don't sweat it if you have to smoke some cigarettes to get by until your order arrives. Falling off the vape-wagon isn't as big of a catastrophe as it is for someone who has gone through all of the misery of quitting cigarettes cold-turkey. You'll just start vaping again when you get your juice.

Quick update, my order of the 19th did not arrive for xmas. I was hoping that it would so I could share some new flavors with a relative who is visiting us xmas day (that's why I paid the extra $5.80 for faster shipping) but it's not going to happen.

Knowing how very busy everyone is I was only hoping that it would arrive by today, but not truly expecting it to. A check of their website this morning said that my order was still "processing" although my payment via credit card was accepted the same day I ordered it (last Saturday).

Oh well, no big deal as I do have plenty of e-juice to get me through the holiday, but it would have been nice.

I hope everyone at StrictlyEjuice has a great Christmas anyway, and I don't mean that sarcastically either, because I'm sure and understand that your hands are full.

I'll know within an hour if my shows up today. In fact, I think I'll go check the mailbox right now. She usually comes between 12:30 and 2:00.

Either she has been here and I have my juice, or she has been here and I don't have my juice, or she hasn't been here and she's bringing it, or she hasn't been here and she's not bringing it..................lol

we shall see............

WHoo-hooo. I am a happy camper now.
Kase-I hope yours comes today.

Now I'm going go try some of these flavors...................

And just so everyone knows, I did manage to milk that cart all day yesterday and never broke down and went to get analogs. I appreciate all the comments.

This place is more than just a great place to meet great people, it's sorta like a support group as well.

Thanks again everyone........:thumbs:

Hey justincase I'm happy for you too! As I said I have enough juice to keep me occupied for a while so getting my shipment was not a must as it was with you. I hope you enjoy your new flavors and a big KUDOS to you for not reaching for an analog during your tough time!

A Merry Christmas to you!

Kase- I know you said you were going to look at the date on your package to see when it shipped. Well, good luck with that.

I never asked for the exact date they shipped it, like you did, I just asked if it had been shipped. When I looked for the date on my box, it looks like there was a piece of tape, or something sticky, that had been peeled off, so the date is unreadable. May not be the case with yours, but just wanted to tell you that.;)
