Need help...Getting Impatient

[defdave]

Hey guys.

I'm getting really impatient waiting here for over a week for my 901 to get here. And I know I'm probably going to be waiting at least another week (or maybe even two!) My starter kits are coming from China and I chose the low cost registered airmail option.

I should not have been so cheap. This wait is killing me.

So...my question to you all is...Can someone tell me the FASTEST supplier of e-cigs here in the US? I want to buy one more and have it get here as quickly as possible because I just absolutely can't stand waiting anymore.

Plus I got e-juice from electronic ash that came in the mail yesterday. That was a fairly quick shipment, but I'd really like even quicker....like in 1-2 days if that's even possible.

Well some of that is going to do with where you live. i live in colorado so the first thing i did was look at where the suppliers were. i found altsmoke.com and midwestvapor.com were pretty close (1 state away if i remember correctly) they both had good reviews and juices i want to try. they both got there shipments to me in 2 days of my order. you should go thru the same process for a speedy shipment

I'm assuming you got yours from Ruyan. I went with the airmail as well. They said it left July 18. I received it July 28. The website states airmail takes 10-25 days. Since it came in 10, I say that's really good. I'm thinking of ordering again today with airmail. Exactly how many days have you been waiting and where do you live?

 

[Drunkwaco]

you'll find a long list of suppliers if you go to the main page of these forums and scroll all the way down it's like 20-50 supplies from all over the US.

Awesome. Thanks, everybody. I'm in Missouri, so those sites would be great.

Thank you guys for your help. I'll be using RockyMountainVapor for everything I need to get here quickly because when I factor in shipping, it's actually comparable to (sometimes cheaper than) going with EMS shipping overseas from China. I wish I would've done more research and ordered my 901's from them instead of RuyanDirect. I would have been vaping nearly 2 weeks ago for about the same cost as I paid RuyanDirect/HeavensGifts (with the registered airmail option....stupid me).

So yeah, last week I had reached the apex of my impatience with waiting for these damn starter kits. So I asked you all for a domestic supplier so I could get something to me quick while I waited for my Chinese shipments to get here.

Well, things changed. My paycheck was much lower than expected, and I had some unexpected expenses also come up at the same time which prevented me from ordering an extra e-cig from RockyMountainVapor.

So I'm still waiting. I placed my order on the 23rd of last month and it's still not even been processed in the US yet (according to USPS tracking).

As of this upcoming Thursday, it will be 3 weeks I will have waited since placing my order. I was an idiot and chose the registered airmail option, which was foolish of me to do since I was already so stoked and ready to start vaping immediately.

Now I'm at a weird point where most of the excitement is gone and I don't care so much anymore, which sucks. I know that will change once my kits show up, but still it won't be quite the same. 3 weeks ago I was ready to quit analogs cold turkey and just switch to vaping. But the fires of my excitement have been tempered somewhat now (thanks to my foolish choice of registered airmail from freaking China) and now I'm leaning more back towards analogs and I don't feel nearly as committed to putting them down. I know this stems from frustration with the extra-long, painful shipping delay, but still.

Like I said, I'm sure I'll feel a little more "into this" once my kits finally arrive (which COULD be another 2 weeks or so according to HG), but I know I won't have anywhere near the grit and determination I originally had the first week (or even two) after placing my orders.

You live you learn. I know better now. If I need it, I'll spring for the shipping cost.

Rockymountainvapor has free shipping and I had my stuff in my hand 2 days later. Really good prices too.

Edit: Oops. Saw the other post. Jumped the gun. Good choice.

Bless your heart.

To keep your enthusiasm level up, continue to browse the forum. By the time your e-cig arrives, you'll be an expert.

So where in Missouri are you? Are we neighbors?

Update your profile, and add your location. We had a guy last night who had trouble, and when we finally found out where he was, there was someone 6 miles away who got some spare parts to him. He's one happy camper now.

Exactly what I was thinking . . . .

Yep. Everyone's happy. Keep pushing that 'location button' it certainly worked here.

Thanks everybody. I updated my profile and added my location.

I received some news today that should help me through this. It seems that the cheap "disposable" $10 e-cig I ordered from DealExtreme a month ago is now in town sitting at the post office. So tomorrow I'll go pick that up. Just hope it lasts me at least a week or 2 or how ever long it'll be until my 901 kits show up.

I'm telling you guys....there's noooo way I'll use registered airmail again for something I need to arrive within a reasonable period of time. I'm usually a somewhat patient guy, but in this instance, oh man....waiting nearly 3 weeks for my first vape....I can't stand it. lol

I've learned my lesson when it comes to shipping, that for sure!

 

[Fnlit]

Thanks for adding your location. Springfield MO! Its a small world my friend.

 

[defdave]

Just picked up my first e-cig at the post office.

I don't exactly know what the model is, but I got it from Deal Extreme and they call it the "E-Health Cigarette". It's not the same one I've seen in other posts here on the board. It came in a black box, not the green & white analog box lookalike.

I ordered this sucker a month ago and it's finally here. I just hope it lasts long enough to get me through until my 901 kits arrive. It only cost 12.50, so I wasn't expecting much out of it anyway.

The instructions said to charge it for 5 hours before using, but I had to take 2-3 hits off of it first.

I added a few drops of menthol high-nic e-juice and put it together and took my first drag and absolutely loved it. Vaping is even better than I expected it would be. It honestly feels really, really close to smoking an analog to me. Now I totally understand "throat hit" and it's relation to e-cigs and analogs.

This is exciting. I can hardly wait until this thing is fully charged. The only kicker is that it only came with one battery, so when this one dies, I'll have to revert to analogs while it's on the charger. That's cool with me for now though until, like I've said, my 901's get here (one of these days! lol).

I love this.

 

[defdave]

I vaped pretty much all day yesterday and my wife and I absolutely love it. Even though the e-cig we have now is basically a "try-out" version, we both understand now what "vaping" feels like and we both LOVE IT.

I'm still hoping our 901 kits get here (from China via registered airmail soon.) Until then though, I personally am fine with this cheap e-cig I've got. But my wife on the other hand is (especially after taking her first vape today) a little anxious about our shipments.

Come on Heaven's Gifts! It's been nearly 3 weeks! My 901 kits have got to be here any day now!

 

[defdave]

Okay...it's now been OVER 3 weeks since I placed my order at Heaven's Gifts for my 901 kits.

Tracking says they left China back on the 26th of last month. That's all the info I have so far. I'm wondering if customs got a hold of them.

Anyway, the cheap, crappy e-cigarette I have now.....
(seen here: DealExtreme: $12.50 Electronic Cigarettes with Chargers and 10-Refills Set (110V~240V AC))
.....is now almost useless after just a few days of vaping. The atomizer is going out. I think the battery is too. I get very little vapor and I have to suck REALLY hard for just a tiny bit a vapor. My first day or two was pretty cool with it, but it slowly started getting crappier and crappier.

I need my 901s. I can't imagine why it's taking so long (other than a hold-up in customs, which I guess doesn't show in tracking when you choose reg. airmail).

Dave, I am in Bentonville, Arkansas (bout 2 hours away from ya), hello neighbor. Actually have some friends that live in Springfield. Anyway, I use the Vapor King from Vapor4Life.com (Steve Milin). They shipr out of the Chicago area and my orders always get here in 2 days (only $6.95) USPS Priority mail. In fact my last order shipped from there late Wednesday afternoon and I received it today at 1:00pm. You need to check out the Vapor King as a possible PV for you and your wife. It is a two piece model (the atomizer is built into the cart), called a cartomizer. Fresh atty with every cartomizer and they CAN be refilled. Very easy to use. This thing puts out great vapor and the throat hit is supreme. I havent used any of my other pv's since receiving mine July 27th. They are having an awesome sale right now on the Ultimate Vapor King Kit (comes with LOTS of XTRAS), like a usb passthru and a PCC. They are having a 20% off sale right now, code: SMILIN20. You will be shocked at the low price (i dont see how Steve does it). The owner is great and the customer service is beyond reproach. I do not work for this company or profit in any way from them. I just LOVE their products, customer service and lightning fast shipping. Check out their reviews and threads on this forum. Check out their website. Their juice flavors are the best and have 28 different flavors to choose and strengths from 0mg-36mg. Steve Milin and Vapor4Life will definitely treat you right. If you put in an order tonite,it will prob ship tomorrow and you will probably have it by Tuesday. You can screw on the cartomizer and start vaping right out of the box as the batts come partially precharged. And while the batts are charging you can vape constantly from the USB Passthru plugged into yur computer. You wont be disappointed with the Vapor King I promise. Welcome to the world of vaping and good luck with whatever you choose to vape with. There are the good ones and there are the bad ones. Like I said I only use th Vapor King, as my other pv's dont stand up at all to the mighty VK.

Heck Dave, you and the wife make a drive down here to Bentonville and I will let you both try out the Vapor King. As I said, just got my new order in today and I have a butload of different flavor cartomizers you can try and see for yourself what all the hype is about regarding the Vapor King. Plenty of different colored batts all charged up and ready for ya. Thats one of many things I forgot to mention, the batts come in 6 different colors (white, black, silver, blue, red, green) w/blue led. The batts last a long time, so do the carts.
If interested about making a road (vaping) trip to arkansas, just send me a PM and we will take it from there.
