My first TV order

[daniel5383]

I got some samples from some people here at ecf before I commited to ordering 30ml bottles, and I loved them. So Friday, I ordered for TV for the first time. It was at 11:00 am. So now we are on Monday around 2pm and just got an update saying mixing. Is it normal for it to take long? Just wondering because I ordered from Vaperite 10 mins. after I ordered from TV and got their package in the mail today. I am not upset just wondering because I want my bottle of pralines and cream!!! lol

they take sunday off, if i'm not mistaken...and markimar posted something about hoping geoff would be back on his feet soon. really and truly a 48 hour wait line isn't that bad, when they mix everything themselves. And for whatever reason, they seem to have the fastest shipping everywhere, so that should make up for some of it. i'm willing to bet that they get over 500 bottles ordered in a day, so if they spend 5 minutes on a bottle (all guess work granted but i do some diy makeup so i'm taking a shot in the dark guess) thats minimum 11 hours of work per day. they then all have to eat, use the washroom, pack the orders, fill out the paperwork etc... its actually really reasonable

There was a mention on tv site that Geoff injured his back. Tv''s turn around is very fast and shipping is lickity split I have it across the states in two days! Plus each bottle is hand made not sitting on a shelf waiting to ship. And he. gets a ton of business! It's so worth the wait. I get my orders faster from tastyvapor faster than from a company in ny own state!

If you order late on Friday, you hit the weekend. A lot of the "Mom & Pop" vendors that grow big enough can hire anyone to take stuff off the shelf and drop it in a box 7 days a week. But every bottle of TV is mixed by hand. There isn't a pre-made supply waiting to be shipped. They have a few, trained mixers but there comes a point when they have to run it like a business with specific hours, time off and everything.

Mondays are probably a little extra busy because the new FOTWs are announced on Mondays. Other than that, orders go out incredibly quickly.

Your still around and kicking! Was getting a little worried you left us. Hailey and I were just commenting on what happened to the ole gang! Glad to see you again

If I spend too much time in this forum, I want to order EVERYTHING. I haven't even tasted cupcake yet. And I can't do it -- I still have about 1/3 gallon of liquid. A bit of it is from PIFs, but about 90% is TV.

The biggest reason is that I lowered the strength I vape at. When I started it was 24mg. So I ordered 48mg and a doubler. I've finally used up all that except some Peppermint.

Then I dropped it to 12mg and went through the doubler twice as fast but the e-liquids I already had lasted twice as long. I placed a nice, big order with a few bottles of 36mg (plus doubler) in June -- right before I got sick -- and I still had some 48mg left.

In July I was at 0mg but as of August I vape at 6mg so it's taking me forever to go through it all. I'm actually vaping by date so I'll use stuff up before it goes bad. Last week I finished the Tastyfinger that I bought in May. Once I get caught up, I won't order higher than 12mg which means I'll go through it in a reasonable amount of time and can buy new liquid more often. Then I'll spend more time here.

ETA: And I got a big Chuck. So I'm doing some 6V vaping which means I'm going through it much faster.

Ohhh! Poeia went for the chuck daddy! I'm currently on a darwin and loving it. Got a saber VV to back it up. But I use darwin and ego on LR cartos for stealth at work! I had a 6 volt saber also but found 6 volt was too strong. With the darwin I can go up or down depending on the juice.
