I ordered mine on a Saturday evening, it shipped first thing Monday morning, and arrived on Wednesday. If you order early on a weekday, it usually goes out the same day by noon (at least in my experience so far). I have always paid the $3.00 priority shipping upgrade also, with pleasure, it's located as a product under shipping options. Vicky also has optional insurance and signature confirmation options.

Nice. I just ordered mine on Sunday (priority shipping also) and I was really hoping it would've made it today. Hopefully, it will arrive tomorrow before I head out of town Thursday morning. Until then, I will still have these expensive analogs in my hand. :grr:

for best prices and genuine product I can find, I recommend http://www.heaven-gifts.com/Don't let the button on the manual models scare you, the button really is a non-issue once you start using it.
I got a type A eGO kit (I mostly just use the power cords the rest is spares lol) from Heaven Gifts and couldn't be happier and its quick and easy to refill on the run. I also bought....

1 eGO LR atty type A, (just to try but doesn't suit me just yet)
the eGO pass through and a matching type A atty (is in daily use),
eGO lanyard (fantastic never without it and added a keychain bottle of juice to it and I can vape while my PV is in it)
2 of the bigger eGO mega batterys 900mAh and matching eGO type A cone shaped attys for each only because the 1000mAh weren't released yet grrr(each 900mAh lets me vape constantly for 7-8 hours, usually 1 of these with the pass through gets me through a day of heavy vaping at home)
and a eGO pcc (haven't needed it yet but you never know, but I do have a total of 5 batts).
1 x 10pk of flat tipped type A eGO carts (averaging 1 cartridge per week on my all day flavour, easy to fill no fuss)
flavoured Juice 24mg/ml, 18mg/ml and 11mg/ml (get a range so you can find your niche, I average 20 mls of juice per week so allow yourself 30mls per week and remember to factor in delivery time for your 2nd delivery)
empty dropper bottles various sizes (seemed to have filled them all lol)
Distilled water for cleaning attys (and thinning 100% VG if needed)
Alcohol for wiping tips after others have sucked on them lol
cheap Tissues for blowing out attys and cleaning contacts, spills etc...

optional
eGO cartomisers- good for occasional flavours and to store as a back-up if your normal attys die
1 36mg/ml unflavoured juice (to play at making my own liquid, rarely used it in my 1st 4 weeks)
a syringe with blunt needle for filling cartomizers or accurate measuring when mixing
went to the local pharmacy (who make their own compounds) and bought some PG (used this to water down the nic content and flavour as needed) can also buy menthol crystals or liquid there too
bought VG in the supermarket (for same reason as PG and to thicken really thin/watery flavours like vanilla essence)

I am planning on buying 1 eGO T-tank atty and carts to try but they strike me as more fiddly than standard carts
but I will be upgrading to the eGO 1000mah batts as my budget allows but my priority is juice for now. I would also like 2 extra eGO USB fast chargers and 1 extra eGO power adapter.

I hope this helps you gauge what you may need to buy and to prioritize your wants. Remember you only need enough to get through until your 2nd delivery arrives and if you stop smoking from the 1st delivery you can then use your weekly smoking budget to slowly stock up

This is a cut and paste of my post on another thread hope there is some usefull info there for you too :)
I am in Australia but my stuff usually arrives in 4 days using EMS shipping and 2 weeks using China post.

Wow, sounds like you're prepared for nuclear fallout! I ordered like 6 different flavors of juice, just to test out the waters, and I will probably end up making my own if I end up sticking with my PV, when it arrives. No kidding, this thing will more than pay for itself in no time. I can't wait till tomorrow. I feel like a friggin little kid on Christmas Eve here. I can't remember the last time I was this excited about something I ordered on the Internet. I guess bc it could potentially save my life, ya know?

Dang GirlyPantz! You havin a vappin party or what!? Just kidding ya. I've been working on my accessories list for the last few days. (Its almost as long as yours) My only concern with ordering from China is my stuff getting snagged by customs. The US customs folks costing me money when I help pay their salaries with my tax dollars would @#$# me off!
I've been stalking the mail lady for the last few weeks (well since I strated vaping) She delivers boxes and cushioned mailers to me almost every day. She asked me today if I was "going into business!" I had to laugh...
Almost time for a excess juice sell on the classifieds section. Got a drawer almost full of them! I found only a few that I liked and the rest I just DIY. Now I'll be stalking the mail lady again... waiting on my new hardware!!!

Okay, so after much deliberation and procrastination I placed my order at LF's. I ordered the Riva SE kit. (liked the chrome better than gold trim). Ordered some regular joye atty's, some blank joye carts, button protectors, extra cones etc... Today I ordered a 750mah passthrough from vapor flow (on sale!), a 510-901/808 adapter too for my left over 808 carto's. Now while I'm waiting for the T-stuff to get restocked at all the vendors I'm debating over getting a couple of cisco spec 306-lr's to see if they are as good as I've been reading. Anyone have first hand knowledge on if they are "that much" better than the standard resistance 510 atty's???

They're nice for dripping, use so much juice a cart can't keep up a supply. I use them for trying out the flavors on a new juice shippment, dripping is too much fooling around for me to relax and enjoy my vape. But that's me, if you want to try dripping they are a good taste, good vapor atty.

Mehhh, dripping is too much work for me unless I'm sitting down with nothing else to do. I drip when I want to try out a new flavor I've mixed up too. I'll just hold off on the LR's until I see if I'm satisfied with the stock 510's. Why did I have to wait til Thursday night to order! Now I have to wait til Monday to stalk the mail lady!:glare:
