My Worst Nightmare is coming true!!!

[DEATHTOCIGS]

vaping razzleberry 12 mg. 50 % VG juice, not by choice, I usually vape tobacco flavors 18-24 mg 80 % PG. This is all I have due to vendor shipping delay( no I did not order this, came as a sample, you know the stuff given out for free that vendors can't get rid of). I think if a vendor has a sale, they need to be prepared, ordered over a week ago and only got shipping notification today. It will be 12-13 days from my order to delivery. I thought I ordered in plenty of time to ensure my supply would not run out. Vendors need to realize, we need our nic., delays in shipping could result in a relapse to analogs.

You can order from Mt Baker Vapor and have it delivered in 3 business days. They aren't the greatest for tobacco flavors but I've seen some good reviews of their RY4 tobacco. It will most likely be predominately caramel and vanilla, and you'll want to accelerate the steep time by submerging the bottle(s) inside a ziplock in some hot water, but it might be worth a try. Do you have any local shops that sell e-liquid?

DIY and not have to worry as much. It's way cheaper anways. It's a nice feeling knowing you have tons of possibilities in your cabinet.

there should be a B&M close to you where you must be able to find something vapable for a while c'mon! You live in a e-cig legal country (for now)! I live down in Mexico and still can find my way to some in-store juices here when this hapens

Yes I could drive 30 minutes to a vape shop and 30 minutes back and get some tobacco juice for double the going rate plus gas ( and I most likely will), but that's not the point I was making. The vaping community depends on online vendors, and we should be able to expect reasonable service and delivery times. I didn't mention the vendor because I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that this is a fluke on their part, but it still sucks that I ran out of vapeable juice due to what I consider an unreasonable delay. After all, how long does it take to mix a few bottles of juice?

This is part of the reason that I order from the vendors that I always order from, I don't want to have to wait until the third Saturday on an even numbered day during a blood moon just to place an order, and I want my order to arrive in a week or less. But that's just me.

Yea, I see newer vendors that are real popular but they offer so many customizations for their juices like extra shots, etc., that they take forever to deliver. I prefer a vendor that says this is how our juice is at its best and bam, we ship fast. Lol. I mean really, how do I know how many extra shots to order, etc. it's ridiculous.

 

[MiamiMom63]

Then you read, get two shots extra, get 4 shots extra. Oh, and then you go to the site and its closed cause they are busy doing custom orders. Lmao. So stupid to me.

Not very long. But they might be mixing hundreds of bottles of juice per day. Maybe something is going on with their store front (stocking inventory, a mixer quit or is out sick, their supplier was late or sent the wrong products, etc) where they've just gotten behind. Yeah, some vendors are stupidly slow and I assume these are usually one or two person operations, but they might just be bad at running a business. You never know, but they are just people too. We all demand perfect service, as we should, but it should not be seen as some major failing of vendors in general. These are almost all very small businesses. Big businesses could probably do it better and cheaper, but we don't have many or any of those right now and many members here would not prefer it anyway.

The quick reliable shippers are out there, just find them and keep a bigger stock of juice if you can afford it. Consider DIY as previously mentioned. I wish they could all be rockstars like MBV, but its just not the case.

It isn't going to be like cigarettes, where you have distributors of products produced by some of the biggest corporations in the world supplying the 24-hour convenience store down the street.

Actually, my favorite juice vendor offers six different nic levels, 6 different pg/vg mixes, and extra flavor shots if you want them, and it's never taken more than 24hrs for my juice to leave their site and be on its merry way to me. I always stick to no extra shots until I've tried it first though.

Oh geeze, I don't have much to say on this subject - not enough experience. If I've got something I really like then I've got a back up bottle at all times On the other hand, I did get something from a vendor that I fell in love with & ran out - however, that's not their fault, it's mine. (Stocked up on that one now - future orders will occur when I open last bottle)
