All you have to do is add them to your approved white list.

Anyone know what order number they're up to shipping? Today is day 4 awaiting fulfillment. Not complaining because it's well within the max of 6 days they estimated when I ordered, but I am starting to worry a little given their reputation.

#2867 is awaiting shipment if this helps ya at all.

Side note, I just placed another order with The vape Mall. Going to compare processing time and juice quality. All juices are 30pg/70vg.

I have to say so far...Brian from The Vape Mall has been veryyyyy responsive with following up any types of issues and going above and beyond. I had some 30/70VG's with 1 flavor shot added that I just couldn't vape. I thought maybe more flavor with the higher VG amount..and I was dead wrong. The flavor was so strong it was chemical/perfume tasting (lesson learned). Again, while not expected..The Vape Mall helped me out and I didn't hesitate to place another $30 order today.

Looking forward to Lucky 7's juices at 30/70VG so I have something to compare them to. The price point is very similar for the 2 companies.

Have a great day everyone!!!

Ah-Grasshopper "Wax on Wax off" or is that "Out with the Old in with the Good". Kind of a pain in the backside.

I know of the chemical smells and taste you mention. I have noticed it in store bought "Off the shelf" juices and some on-line purchases. I have also found it very hard if not impossible to get rid off. These are also the juices that give me a fit of the thirsties.

Actually I haven't noticed much change with age or shaking with the L7 juice. It is pretty good out of the mail box and does get a little more mellow (better) with time. For me I have no qualms about using it from day one.

I did see you mention your Peanut Cup was better at lower power levels. I have seen some people hear talking about 10 to 15 watts. I don't know how they do that and not just cremate their tongues. If I go much above 7 watts everything starts to taste burnt. Which is one of the flavors that my ancient taste buds can still taste [strange irony now that I think about it].

Actually depending on what atty I am using I run from 5.5 to 7.5 watts MAX. Also my buds have a similar history as yours 50 plus years of around two packs a day so my buds take some strong flavor concentrations to get them to even wake up or maybe I should say "resurrect form the dead".

So how is St George these days, I was born in Dragerton (East Carbon City) a few years ago, like about 57+ I'm ordering from L7 for my next juice, my taste buds seem to be waking back up after about 43 years as a PAD smoker with the exception of the last year or so I had cut down to about half a pack. Have you ever tried to heat steep your juices? It speeds things up by a week or so. I started doing it with all my MT Baker stuff. Get a bowl of dry rice that is deep enough to reach the neck of the bottle of juice and heat it in the microwave to about 180 to 200 f. (don't go above 230, the LDPE most of these bottles are made of melts between 236 and 250) I use my instant read thermo. for testing meat or an infared to check it. after the rice is hot, remove cap and dripper tip, nestle the bottle down in the rice and let sit till cool, when cool shake the heck out of it and in a day or two you're good to go.

I went to the Lucky 7 site today because the inexpensive prices appealed to me, and also the positive reviews about the juice flavors.

I had several bottles in my cart to check out, and then noticed the processing time, several days, before shipping. I decided not to pull the trigger. I really hate waiting for stuff I've ordered online.

I understand that a new business takes some time to get all the kinks out, but now after reading about how long some of you have waited to get your orders, I'm glad I changed my mind. I'm going to wait for them to get it together before I order from them.

I went to my favorite place MBV and ordered today at about 2 p.m. I just got a notice that my order has already shipped today.

You posted on the Lucky 7 thread to say you didn't order from Lucky 7 .... interesting ... and your reasonimg is that you read some posts that complained about long delivery times .... interesting ..... just how long do you steep your Mt. Baker juices after they are so quickly delivered???

I'm not knocking Mt. Baker ... they were my "go-to" juice supplier, so I know how good their stuff is ... and how long their juice need to be steeped, which makes 10 day delivery vs. a 4 day delivery pretty much a moot point. I still prefer Mt. Baker Butter Scotch to Lucky 7's, so I'll continue ordering it from them ... but all my other juice will come from Lucky 7.

I'm just trying to say, you should let the posts that talk about the quality of the juice sway your decision to order or not ... and you shouldn't be bothered by the posts complaining about taking twice as long to deliver that juice.

So I just tried two out of the five I ordered that I've been letting steep for about a week now.

Rainbow Candy: This really does taste like Skittles. More of the lime flavor but it's definitely Skittles. I am noticing a slight alcohol-like taste afterwards though. I may need to let this breathe for another day and steep for a few more days.

RY4: This is my first RY4 so I really don't have anything to compare it against but this reminds me of my Dad's pipe tobacco with a little more clove. Not bad...probably not an RY4 guy myself but it's a nice change. Again, SLIGHT alcohol-like taste afterwards on this one...much less than the Rainbow Candy. I'll let this breathe and steep a bit more.

gpc,

Well - St. George, Hot, and growing like a weed.

I have used hot water for the expedited steeping but the rice thing sounds much better and doesn't destroy the labels. I have been porting my juices to glass bottles lately so I don't have to worry about melting plastic.

This steeping thing... A real pain in the backside. Also I have found some juices change a lot some not so much... kind of like a crap shoot.
That said I have had some that the change was from complete junk to absolutely great after about a month.

I have been thinking about trying heat and high speed stirring to expedite the steep time. The local kitchen supply shop sells a gadget to create a froth on a cup of mocha and it is pretty cheap - just a thought.

Sorry, I am rambling, still on my first cup of coffee.

Order #3149 for me and still processing. Placed on 3/23 so no surprise.

I tie mine to one of the dogs and just let him chase rabbits.

I tried that with my cat but she just climbed up in her "Cat Tree" and went to sleep.

I got the idea for high speed stirring from "Deej Stuff" another e-juice vendor and a couple of others. I have also seen this done in Chemical Labs and when I worked in a chemical factory. So my assumption is there must be some validity to it as apposed to just letting it sit and allow convection do the work (convection is akin to watching paint dry).

Any way the local kitchen tools shop has one for $12 dollars and I am willing to try "almost anything" once.

PS - Hmmm... how about a drill motor with a Martini Spoon attached.

I think you're on to something. Sure beats buying a gallon of paint and sticking your juice bottle onto the shaker for a ride.

Seriously. I've actually seen some UV/Shaker thingie advertised on a juice site somewhere. Can't find it though.

 

[HoseGarden]

use a paint stir/shake machine

I have seen several threads that discussed the Ultrasonic Shaker. The e-juice Company "DeejStuff" offers "High Speed Blending" as an alternative to just sitting on your shelf for a month and claims it is steeped and ready to use right out of the mailbox.

But the paint shaker would probably do it and be a whole lot more entertaining.

Received my order today, think I ordered on the 12th so yeah around two weeks. They smelled incredible. Couldn't wait and tried some of the Coffee. It needs some time to sit yet.
I don't remember ordering the big 120ml bottles but that is what they sent. Anyway I'll ordder from them again pretty soon. I don't mind waiting a couple weeks as long as they don't forget about me entirely.

i sure hope that happens with my order

still "awaiting fulfillment"

 

[Timbuck55]

Order #3241

I'm really hoping these taste good as they are so cheap and I'm tired of buying such expensive juices. I've read a ton of good reviews so I shall see like the rest of you.
