Ok guys so i have been researching heavily trying to find a subscription service that seems worth the money. I know there are a lot of mixed reviews about these things but i stumbled apon this site and it looks intriguing, but it also seems a bit vague. http://store.vapecrates.com I cant seem to find any reviews from these guys or any type of unboxing videos.

For me since im still relatively new to vaping and do not have much equipment i want to find a subscription service that offers both juice, and new hardware for me to try, and dabble in.

With this one it looks like for 50$ you get 95ML of juice Mod accessories, drip tips, and batterie 2x premium giveaways??? Although it dose not really list what type of brands and types of harware you should be expecting?? Seems like a good deal on paper, i mean you can easily spend 60$ on 90ML of primeum e-juice alone let alone hardware....

Has anyone out there tried this service????

Along the veins of these subscription services.... Has anybody that is reading this that has been vaping a while now found it worthwhile? I saw a lot of new vapers on Youtube that were subscribed to an assortment of vapebox subscriptions and they seemed thrilled at first but a half dozen videos later and I'd start to see them saying things like "this mod they sent me isn't very good quality, the threads are sticking terribly" or things like "I really didn't like any of the juice they sent me in the last vapebox/vapemail" etc.

I guess it's fun and all to be surprised at what you might get in the package but for me.... I generally like to buy the things that I know I want and haven't ever felt the need to build up my inventory of vaping paraphernalia and just buy what I really need or desire. Yes, I think that amount of liquid basically amounts to about 6 bottles and locally each bottle might go for anywhere from 10 (if you buy two bottles at a time) to about 15 (on average to buy one name brand liquid) to substantially higher for really well known brands that (to me) have over inflated prices. So I suppose if you like every juice they send you then you wouldn't really be losing out but if you dislike 3 of them, and they send you some drip tip that cuts your lip due to a bur on the tip then you're losing out.

Maybe I'm simply not the type of person they are trying to attract but I've tasted so many liquids in local B&M stores that I make the "yuck" face at, that I couldn't even conceive of allowing some stranger company send me an assortment of juices that I'd probably make the yuck face at too.

Zamplebox is what i was originally going to sign up for but i really wanted to try and get some surprise hardware. I guess im just that guy who does a whole bunch of research, then decides on something to buy, buys it, and then has buyers remorse and decide i want something different. For instance my original set up was an aspire nautalis mini starter kit. I was happy with it for about a week then decided i needed more clouds so i went out and got an Istick 50w and an atlantis tank. Now im using that same atlantis tank but with .25 ohm cotton coils, its working ok at 50w but now i want to try it at 60-70 watts.... I also want to get my foot in the door with RDA but there are SO MANY RDA devices that i have no clue what to start with, everyone recommends something different and i dont want to buy something i did a ton of research on only to be disappointed or quickly want something new/better.....

Thats why i really wanted a hardware/ juice subscription service so they can just choose for me and i can play around with whatever i get since im getting it at a discount.... Then again though i dont want what i get to be complete garbage which is what im hearing alot about vapebox.....

Look, just go to FastTech and pick out a bunch of vaping hardware more-or-less at random. I say "more-or-less" because you should at least read the discussions about stuff. You'll get better prices than a 50% discount at most online stores.

Or check out the AngelCigs "clearance" page. Lots of different hardware at really good prices (although their shipping tends to be a little high). In May, I got 13 heads (RDA and RTA) for about $75 including shipping.

Got a bunch of nice mech mods from them for an average of about $10 ea (including shipping). Unfortunately all of them needed vent holes drilled into them, but with that caveat, they're great!

Unfortunately, when it comes to "choose for me" usually what they choose is what nobody else is buying........

Haha, I just read something around here about "Steps to start vaping" (Cuz im really new).
I just purchased the Istick (30w) and an aspire tank! How funny!
I would try out Zamplebox , I figured if I don't like it after a few months, I can cancel.

Edit: I also agree with the above. Angelcigs has some good sales, Just buy random mods and try them out :)

Noper, and don't plan to do so. I followed my own advice and did my own due diligence! Besides, I DIY...

BTW, do like your Istick (30w) and an aspire tank setup. Great lil' combo! That's basically what I'm currently vaping. Although tempted, have yet to succumb to da sub-ohm genre. Still doing dat due diligence thing...

I figured I would try it out for a few months... Im brand new (only a few weeks) vaping. I would be terrified to DIY on the juices xD. I haven't gotten my setup yet. Supposed to be here tomorrow xD I can't wait to try it out!

Discount? What discount?
If you really believe in their "discount" - go subscribe. Do not expect to save any money, just be happy.

Aspires a brand bro. 1 of the best combos ever still is a istick 20 with a nautilus mini, pretty much for when youre not looking for clouds

I was subscribed to Craft Vapery for around eight months. Vape subscriptions are good if you're just starting out or you want to try just about everything. Its a great way to find out what you like and what you can vape on a daily basis. But once you have what you want/need, its pointless.

That's why I joined zample. I figured 4-6 months and I should know about some things I like..and don't like :) Only been Vaping 2 weeks.. so... Ha Im new to everything around.

I still throw my mini on my istick 50W... I usually vape a 3mg dessert type flavor at 50w on my atlantis for a bit, then switch over to a 6-8 mg fruity type flavor on my mini and vape around 14-18 watts...

FastTech seems awesome, been cruising around the site, thinking about getting a magma clone to start my RDA quest... From what i read it amazing flavor.

Any suggestions on what RDA to get for bigger clouds??
