New USA Supplier BLOOG

[nycsublimegirl]

Hi everyone,

Wanted to introduce myslef as a new Supplier of a version of the loong totem or smoke 51 (our parts will fit those products) we feel we are nice competition for the US Market.

you can find us at www,bloogplanet.com

All feedback welcome!!!

20% off with coupon code: Lanza.

This looks exactly like the e-cig.com new mini. That being said why should customers order from you when they could get it shipped from china and still come out about 20 buck cheaper?

 

[nycsublimegirl]

Well considering shipping from China and our coupon...they are about equal. However our company goal is not internet sales but retail. This is just our initial introduction to the market place. It will also be much easier to return/exchange with a US supplier. Considering competitors sell this type of product with a bigger model for $150 we feel we are pretty competitive.

In addition we are planning a line of interchangeable parts and accessories that will be unique that you will not be able to buy anywhere else.

I personally am looking forward to trying one. I have heard good things about Ecigs like these. And as to why not order from china? I suggest most people to not order from china. A few reasons. One, is you take a BIG chance of losing your shipment to customs. Second is warranty. Alot come in DOA. Suppliers generally test them so you don't have to. And lets say you get a bad atomizer on arrival. Now you have to PAY shipping to send it back. And sometimes PAY to have a new one shipped to you. If Bloog takes care of their customers like a lot of the US suppliers then you will get one that is not DOA, and if you have issues it's a cheap ship back to them for exchange. I personally will not order from china again. Can you save money? Sure. Can you lose alot of money? Definetly. It's a preference issue, but when you weigh the pros and cons, I'd rather order from US, have it shipped here quicker, tested and ready to go.

I for one, am really looking forward to trying one of these Bloog cigs.

Hey one thing that kinda bugs me on your site is your pictures of "e-smokers" are images taken from dreamstime stockphotos of people smoking REAL cigarettes... I give ya credit for using free stock images, but the real cigarettes especially this one, with a white image to covder up the burning ash is a bit weird:

I dunno just something that struck me as odd. Other than the seizure flashing geocities type icons. I suppose site doesn't reflect a good product...

I dunno, please don't take this as anything other than constructive criticism.

I mean some images have white jagged outlines from cropping, product photos are cropped in a weird angle, product photos show lint inside boxes, etc... A little more love can go a long way in upping your sales, me thinks.

Is this one the same as somke51 ? It is cheaper specially with the coupon but smoke51 has so much problems. Battery's are dying left and right and there is big one no throat hit what so ever. Unless a person was smoking Virginia slims ultra light it's hard to loose that throat hit.

Hi, Val. I just got one of Bloog's starter kits and some cartridges, and I will be reviewing them soon.

But in the meantime I can tell you they are compatable with Smoke 51, but made by e-cig.com,, a different manufacturer. They perform about the same as what I reviewed from e-cig.com in my review here: My ePuffer Magnum and e-cig.com’s New Minicig review and demo., but seem better built than what I got directly from the manufacturer. THey don't rattle in their tubes anyway.

ePuffer Magnum, the other one I review in that video is another compatable option.

You're right about the problems it has and many on the forums has been condemning this model by Loongtotem. I also recall that there was heavy complaints in the customer service department and also some mention of inhaling burned fiber with this model. To be fair, this was quite some time ago.

However, it is also known to produce crazy vapor and according to Leaford, is hell of an ecig when it works right.

Edit: Pardon my mistake on the above. Leaford posted a minute before me to confirm that they are made by e-cig.com, not Loogtotem.

Just tried to place order, and when using paypal the discount is not being reflected... It does in the shopping cart tho.

Is this intended, you don't get the discount with Paypal? or I guess it needs to be fixed.

 

[leaford]

Lucky, Try my code, LEAFORD. See if that works better. It's 20%, also.

Uh i dont think you should be saying that Your competitors use stock photos.. cause not ALL of them do. perhaps " some" of them may but in either case this phrase carries more of a downgrading reaction regarding other suppliers.

Thank you leaford ! Please let as know about the throat hit also.
I want to stop playing around with liquid , atomizers etc...
BLOOG is in NJ that's where I live so shipping should be fast. I hope it's a good product.

Thanks Rocks for noting that. Some of us HAVE taken our OWN photos and they have been STOLEN and dispersed throughout the Internet so what may LOOK like STOCK photos... actually aren't. Same with content...

 

[LucKyPunk]

Nope that didn't work either it shows up on the cart but not in paypal. Also it appears the code "Lanza" is actually 30% off but I don't think that's intended

 

[leaford]

Val,
none of the disposables have very heavy throat kicks, at least not to me. But the Tobacco, coffee (which tastes more like tobacco than the Tobacco does) and menthol flavors have the most. I'm still learning about throat kick, so this is rough, but if I had to rate it on a 1 to 5 scale, I'd say those ones are a 3, maybe 3.5, but the other flavors are a 2 at best.

Lucky,
Curses, outbid by the owner.

Hi All,

I am sorry we are experiencing technical difficulties with PayPal through our shopping cart and hope to have it resolved by this evening.

The orders show up correctly in my end of the cart (reflecting the coupon!)...I see them once you hit pay through PayPal...so just email me at a@bloogplanet.com and i can just send you an invoice for the time being. So sorry for this inconvenience!!!

You are correct I did not intend to mean ALL competitors...i have changed my post to reflect that.

And to clarify I have paid for the rights to use those photos...but so can anyone else that is why they are termed "stock"
