Ya know what would be Cool?

And that would be Real Time, GPS Based, Tracking with a Map of where a Shipping container is. Kinda like on this site.

Only being able to see the Red Dot chug across the Pacific when I hit on the Tracking ever 15 minutes.

Just got my shipping email from 101vape. I won't ever preorder again in the future, that was a bad move. Since other vendors got theirs 3 days ago, I suppose either UD took their time / deprioritized actually shipping to 101, or 101 chose a slower shipping method than everyone else.

Incidentally I had given up on them and ordered from another vendor this morning. I was going to cancel 101, but I guess I won't now - instead the packages can have a race to my house!

Oops! There's my email. Shipped from 101vape
Same here skybox, just got my shippy note from 101. Now just waiting on the tracky track.

I've had nothing but good times with 101. However my bank card was fraudulently used, BUT, I used it two other online vape places that day, next day someone charged over 200$ so in no way can I prove it was 101, not gonna suggest it was stolen from them either. More places need to use PayPal, so much safer and easier.

Pre orders are always kind of a crap shoot. I also will not do so again simply because my card was charged before their stock had arrived, essentially selling me something they did not have.
I'm wondering if a better strategy would be to order from china at a savings and then spend that savings on fast shipping. I may try that next time I'm anxious for new stuff.
Still, I've emerged relatively unscathed so far...

Did you use a computer or mobile device? Sorry about your troubles, that stuff is about the only thing that freaks me out about this whole process.

My fone, through my WiFi in the house. It's secure, at least that's what I was told. You need a PW in order to use it. You thinkin someone tapped into my sh*t through my WiFi?

Pretty unlikely - most of those breaches have happened somewhere else, probably at the payment provider that the vendor is using.

I got hit by this twice, since then I don't use credit cards for any vaping purchases anymore. I've got a 'prefill' style card from Chase, that works like a debit card but it's not tied directly to my checking account and I can transfer cash into any time. When I buy something online, I put the exact amount I need in, then make the purchase. This way my credit card numbers are never exposed, there's never anything in my 'vaping' card to be stolen, and if it's breeched it's no big deal to cancel and replace.

Good points. I guess I preordered because I was imagining these would be hard to find on launch day, but I had no real reason to think that. When you have the itch to get something new and shiny, the best tact is likely to just have an eye on the typical vendors around launch day and buy it when it's stock- and can be shipped from the US next day.

Seems odd to me that many here are complaining that they haven't received the Youdy yet, (BY the 15th) when Youde themselves said that the device would not be ready for shipment before the 15th. Seems to me, we are getting them ahead of schedule. So what'' to complain about?

Patients my young padiwads! (Spelled correctly?, Who cares, I'm OLD! LOL!!!) Now that said, Where the He** is it??? LOL

For me, it is an expression of my own impatience more than anything.
