Hello all

Been lurking around and thought I'd share my experience so far. Was not really hard to make the right choice to get into vaping. Ended up buying The Bolt kit and could not be happier. The forum helped a lot about finding out what I needed to know and I'm addicted (in a good way).

I'm located in South Africa and vaping hardware and liquid is hard to come by and is quite expensive so importing is the best option. Next step is getting a VV mod or a Kick for the bolt.

Few good vendors I've dealt with so far but Clouds of Vapor is not replying to any of my emails after making payment

Hi,

I'm a new vapor/member also. I havent tried contacting clouds of vapor but i've made a couple of purchases from them now and have been very happy about the products and shipping times so far. Not sure what you ordered but I hope you get it soon, i know how frustrating it is waiting on mail.

I was just trying to figure out how that worked. I wanted to complimet a couple of the vendors that ive purchased from but couldnt do it.

Welcome to ECF , and no excuss , but I think Bruce's son has taken over the emails , and he's not doing a very good job . My mails have been dropped , as well . But rest assured COV is a great vendor and Bruce stands by his products 100 % .

You've got your 5 posts so you'll be able to go and post your positive reviews as soon as the servers reset for you in about an hour or so.

Thanks for the help yiddle, will do that. Packages from the US takes an average of 2 weeks, I import quite a lot from the US and EU. Clouds of Vapor seems to be a trusted vendor here on ECF hence why I ordered from them.

Is it just me or is there no payment via Paypal?

I remember reading something somewhere that Paypal is not an option for juice vendors because they will not let you use it for ecigarette and vaping products.

The few transactions I've made with COV have been nothing short of positive, and I'll do business with them again. Something out of the norm is probably afoot (Love a chance to use words and phrases like that).

Hi guys I'm kinda new I've been "vaping" since 03/01/2012 and have not picked up an analog since. I was a very heavy smoker and since I started vaping I have tried several different ejuice vendors. Johnson Creek was the first and I loved their juice until I got a few bottles that were flat tasting. Since then I have been vaping Joyetech "Tobacco" and "RY4" but, recently had the same problem. It's like it was a bad batch or something because, I have gotten better juice from both Johnson Creek and Joyetech before. However, when I asked if this was possible their response was like they had no idea what I was talking about. So, onward and hopefully upward I just ordered the sample pack from Halo and a 30ml of "Tribecca" as well it has gotten great reviews. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone has had the same experience with any of their juices as well and hopefully shed some light on this subject as I am in the dark why this happens.

Also, I "chain vape" and go through about a 30ml bottle every week or so and need at least two different juice flavors to vape at all times. I have heard of COV before and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a new flavor to try. Keep in mind I'm still into a tobacco style juice like RY4 and vanilla but, my taste is starting to open up.

This happens to many people when they first start vaping - and it even happens to long-term vapers. After a while, your taste buds acclimate to a flavor and you can't taste it as well anymore. If you switch to a new flavor for a while then go back to the original favorite, it will probably taste good again.

Of course it is possible that you got some "bad" juice from 2 different vendors. But it's also possible that you just need to let the juice steep for a few days or a week.

And it's also possible that your taste buds just adapted or changed. I've got some juice now that I liked a lot, but now don't like so much. It's the same bottle, so I know it's not bad juice. I'm just going through a phase where my juices taste different to me. It happens and is fairly common among vapers.

I got the email last night stating the order was shipped but still no response on my questions.

Hi Simon, when I ordered my kit I ofc bought some juice but it was awful. I got Boba's Bounty, Gorilla juice and a RY4 juice from a friend which I loved but he did not, if I did not get those juices from him I prolly would have been back to rolling my own cigarettes.

These complex tobacco flavours are great, the fruity stuff is just a little off to me and reminds me of hooka but will always have a fruity vape on hand when the need arises.

I like to vape according to what im doing if that makes sense. With smoking it was that one brand which one always smokes so its always the same.

For me steeping is not a problem since it takes so long for the order to get here but its not the proper steeping process I suppose.

If only vendors have $6-8 shipping like some do I would order a lot more but $15-20 for shipping just doesn't work for me. Btw, doesnt matter what the price is it still takes 2 weeks.
