new to e- cigs from new york city!!!

Just one tiny word of caution: You are really rolling the dice to buy an e-smoking product from a reseller on eBay. I like eBay and buy stuff there (not e-smoking stuff), but beware that your seller could disappear in a heartbeat and you'd have no one to honor whatever warranty you think you have. Most of the customer service accolades posted here involve brick-and-mortar operations.

Maybe everyone will be all smiles over eBay purchases. Maybe not.

Glad to hear you like your e-cigar. Unfortunately, I don't smoke cigars. My package from e-cig finally arrived is waiting for me to pick it up at the post office. (Yeah)...

So all is good again.

hey everybody! well I waited almost a month to get my package from e-cig.com. I was excited to recieve the third e-cig in my collection.IN the short time ive been in this "scene" I now have an Njoy, a ruyan e-cigar and now this minicig. Well This has been the most dissapointing of all. First of all one of the batteries came broken. Second when i smoke the mini ,the atomizer gets really hot within 3-4 puffs! I tried dripping the liquid from one of my njoy cartridges and when i took a pull, the liquid ended up on my mouth and lips! GROSS!!!! The taste of the scarce vapor is pleasant however, almost like a faint cherry, about the only nice thing i can say about this piece of junk. What troubles me is that i ordered the basic pack which cost me 45.00 +3 packs ofcartridges+shipping,You do the math for a virtually unusable product!!!! Does anybody have a similar situation/solution to make this waste of money smokeable,any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. PS- I spoke to somebody on e-cig's live chat support with my problem and they offered to send me a new battery but heres the catch: I have to wait 1-2 months for the replacement and then I have to mail them back the broken battery which im assuming I would have to pay for the shipping. What a jip!!!!!!!!!!

hey rachel was everything working in your order? as you can read from my post above, one of the batteries wasnt working but the are sending a replacement.

I only ordered e-liquid this time.

I can tell you that from my past experience with e-cig I would not order another battery from them.
A couple of months ago, I ordered 2 e-cigs kits from them and two out of four batteries did not work. Upon contacting them, I received an email back saying that they no longer cover the battery. I sent an email saying it was a brand new product & has not been used, why wasn't it covered. Again, received an email saying batteries were no longer covered.

You can buy an NJOY battery which will fit the atomizer from e-cig and the cost of the battery is the same. Yes, I have received a few batteries that did not work but Mark from NJOY is great. He will send you a new battery along with an envelope to mail the bad battery back to him. Again, their customer service is great.

Yeah, returns to China Suck.

Here, this guy has mini-cigs shipping from Montana. Or maybe Missouri. MO, whichever one that is.

I got that one from them last week, and it's been great. Arrived in perfect condition. Works great. I have to suck a little harder than I'd prefer, but it's the second easiest one I've tried yet. Good volume of smoke, and good density. Battery life is about 10 hours. The cartridges don't last very long, though, and changing them is messy. My only complaint on that model. $41 including shipping.

While looking up that link, I also found this model, being sold from NY: http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Mini-E-cigarette- ... dZViewItem

That's the Health model, also sold by Dealextreme. I've seen mixed reviews on this one, but the advantage is it comes with two complete cigarettes.

$10, but $30 shipping. I HATE when dealers do that. :x

Hey, wait! YOU'RE from NY, too, right? Maybe you can arrange to pick it up instead?

 

[grimmys cigs]

thanks for the links leaford. I checked them out. However, I placed an order for a dealextreme automatic cigar so I can drip flavored liquids with it. I own a ruyan e-cigar, but that one i want to strictly use with ruyan cartridges because 1) they work great with the ruyan cigar and 2)I love that realistic cigar flavor that comes from the ruyan cartridges and i dont want any other flavors mixed in there. The awful mini cig from e-cig.com is now sitting inside my drawer as a horrible reminder of a wasted 45.00!!! Im gonna try and drip it with the one remaining battery that i have and see how that works out! does any one else on here drip a mini cig? can you give me some advice please? it would be greatly appreciated!!

hey everyone. I just recieved a replacement atomizer from njoy and i noticed the design is slightly different from my previous ones. first the decorative band on the atomizer is now black instead of golden looks way cooler! and second i noticed its smaller and lighter in weight. Does anybody know if this is a design upgrade or what? seems to work pretty much the same to me.

does any one else on here drip a mini cig? can you give me some advice please? it would be greatly appreciated!!

Take the inhaler out, drip and draw straight from the atomizer. I did this for a while with the USB version of the e-cig mini. It works OK. Alternatively, you can hack an inhaler and make it draw from the base, as opposed to from the top (near the atomizer) like it does by default.

hello everybody! its been a while since i have posted. I recieved my auto cigar from deal xtreme, it a good cigar but i only use it for dripping and it lacks that kick that i recieve from my njoy. Im on my third atomizer fom njoy and this ones been working for two weeks now! I have had several relapses to regular smoking,i guess due to job- related stress. I dont know why but when Im in a stressful situation ,my ecigs just dont cut it. Could it be because of the lower nicotine content of e-cigs when compared to traditional cigs or could it be that e-cigs take longer to" kick"than traditional cigarettes? I dont know. I am however still using my e-cigs on a regular basis. this is my collection now: a ruyan cigar,an automatic dealxtreme cigar, a burgundy njoy and a useless mini cig from e-cig.com! FYI: CROWN 7 CARTS DO NOT FIT NJOY!!! they fit very loose and the whole experience is frustrating. Also, they lack that kick in the back of the throat that I can only feel with njoy carts!!! what i did with them was extract all the liquid from the crown 7 carts and use it to drip. I know this is not thread related but, I have ordered some smokey mountain and hooch herbal dip tobacco and its not bad, keep in mind ive never used real dip tobacco in my life!! lol. I have also followed tropical bob's lead and i put in an order for some snuss. I cant wait to try it!!I will be eventually posting about it in the alternatives thread on this forum, stay tuned! My friend put in an order for a black njoy and the first 5 pulls are excllent and then nothing!! I have contacted njoy on her behalf for a replacement asap,after all my friend ordered it because of my raving reviews about it!!lol Well thats it for now e-smoking friends, take care
